  1. Confirm the billing owner before canceling

    • To cancel The Baltimore Sun, direct-billed print and digital subscriptions must be canceled with Tribune Publishing (by phone or, where available, through your Baltimore Sun online account), while any Apple- or Google Play–billed app subscriptions must be canceled in the respective app‑store account. Tribune’s Subscriber Terms say all subscriptions are continuous until you cancel, and that cancellation is accepted by calling the listed customer-service number and, in some cases, by using a “Cancel Subscription” option in online account settings. Deleting the mobile app or revoking a payment card alone does not stop renewal, and Tribune describes its subscriptions as fully prepaid and generally non‑refundable for unused time. 1) Check who charged you last: If your card or bank statement, Easy Pay authorization, or order confirmation names The Baltimore Sun or Tribune Publishing, you have a direct Tribune‑billed subscription and must cancel with Tribune (phone and, where available, your online account). Tribune’s Subscriber Terms state all subscriptions are continuous and can be canceled by calling the phone number listed for your newspaper or, in some jurisdictions, by choosing “Cancel Subscription” in account settings; they also link a Baltimore Sun “Manage Account” portal at baltimoresun.com/customerservice. 2) If your email receipts and billing history show Apple or “App Store/iTunes” as the merchant for a Baltimore Sun subscription or Unlimited Digital Access purchase, Apple is the billing owner. The Baltimore Sun’s iOS App Store listing explains that payment and renewal are charged to your Apple account and that auto‑renewal is managed only in Apple Account Settings. 3) If your billing shows Google Play as the merchant for a Baltimore Sun subscription or digital purchase, Google Play is the billing owner. Google’s help pages explain that app subscriptions billed through Google Play must be canceled from subscriptions on Google Play, and that uninstalling the app does not cancel the subscription. 4) Stopping Tribune Easy Pay auto‑debits, disputing a charge with your bank, or removing a card from Apple or Google does not itself cancel a Baltimore Sun subscription; you must cancel with the actual billing owner and then confirm your final access or delivery date with that entity.
    • Use the billing owner shown on your The Baltimore Sun receipt or account before following a cancellation path. Keep the final status, confirmation email, and effective date for any later billing dispute.
    • Tribune’s Subscriber Terms frame Baltimore Sun subscriptions as fully prepaid and generally non‑refundable for unused time, with only narrow, discretionary exceptions and separate rules when Apple or Google Play is the billing owner.
  2. Keep enough proof for a focused follow-up

    • Save the confirmation, effective date, and billing receipt.
    • Capture the plan, renewal date, and company shown on the receipt.
    • Challenge only a specific unresolved charge or cancellation result.

The Baltimore Sun FAQs

Short answers for the questions people usually ask before starting.

To cancel your subscription to The Baltimore Sun, first identify who bills you. If your card or bank statement lists The Baltimore Sun or Tribune Publishing, cancel directly with Tribune—either by calling the Baltimore Sun customer-service number in the Subscriber Terms or, where available, by using the “Cancel Subscription” option in your online account. If your receipts show Apple or Google Play as the merchant, cancel in that platform’s subscription settings instead.
You can sometimes cancel a Baltimore Sun subscription online if you started it on the website and your jurisdiction supports self‑service cancellation. Sign in to the customer portal linked as “Manage Account” for The Baltimore Sun, then look for a “Cancel Subscription” option in your account settings. If no cancel button appears, or if you have print delivery, the Subscriber Terms direct you to call customer service to cancel instead.
To cancel a Baltimore Sun newspaper (print or print+digital) subscription, Tribune’s Subscriber Terms point you to the Baltimore Sun customer-service phone number and manage‑account link in the Contact Us table. Have your delivery address and account details ready, call the listed number, clearly request cancellation of home delivery and Easy Pay renewal, and ask the agent to confirm your final delivery date and any Special Editions or fees that may still be scheduled.
You can contact Baltimore Sun Customer Service about your subscription by using the dedicated phone number and online Manage Account link listed for The Baltimore Sun in Tribune Publishing’s Subscriber Terms. Those official contact entries include the customer‑service hours and the baltimoresun.com/customerservice portal. Tribune specifies that cancellation is handled through these phone and online channels rather than by postal mail.
You may be able to cancel The Baltimore Sun without calling if your subscription qualifies for self‑service cancellation. Tribune’s Subscriber Terms say that, depending on jurisdiction, online‑started subscriptions can sometimes be ended by selecting “Cancel Subscription” in your account settings. App‑store subscriptions can also be canceled entirely through Apple’s or Google Play’s subscription screens. If no cancel option appears in these tools, you must cancel by phone instead.
Stopping Easy Pay does not cancel your Baltimore Sun subscription. Tribune’s Subscriber Terms explain that revoking the automatic payment authorization only ends the Easy Pay billing arrangement; your continuous subscription remains active and you are still responsible for payment by other means. To avoid further renewal, you must cancel the subscription itself by calling customer service or, where eligible, using an online “Cancel Subscription” option.
You are unlikely to receive a refund for unused time when canceling a Baltimore Sun subscription early. Tribune describes subscriptions as fully prepaid, non‑refundable licenses for the chosen term and states that no unused portion of a subscription term will be refunded. The company reserves discretion to issue refunds or credits only in limited situations, such as serious technical access problems, and app‑store bills follow Apple or Google Play’s separate refund rules.
To cancel a Baltimore Sun subscription purchased in the iOS app, you must use Apple’s subscription settings. On your iPhone or iPad, open Settings, tap your name, tap Subscriptions, select The Baltimore Sun or its Unlimited Digital Access product, and tap Cancel Subscription. Apple’s support guidance confirms that this is how you stop auto‑renewal for App Store–billed subscriptions; deletion of the app alone does not cancel billing.
If your Baltimore Sun charges come from Google Play, manage cancellation in your Google Play subscriptions. Google’s help center instructs Android users to go to Subscriptions in Google Play, select the subscription they want to cancel, tap Cancel subscription, and follow the prompts. It also warns that uninstalling the app does not stop charges, so you must complete cancellation in Google Play itself to end billing.
You should keep multiple forms of proof after canceling your Baltimore Sun subscription. Save any confirmation email or on‑screen message from Tribune, Apple, or Google Play, plus screenshots of the account screen showing a non‑renewing or expired status. Tribune’s Subscriber Terms recommend contacting customer service with subscription questions; having these records, along with dates and times of calls, helps resolve any billing disputes within the 120‑day dispute window they describe.
