Should you contact Chicago Sun Times first?

Use this Chicago Sun Times check to choose between an official account action and help preparing a clearer follow-up.

  1. Confirm the billing owner before canceling

    • To cancel a Chicago Sun-Times print or digital subscription billed directly by Chicago Sun-Times Media, use the Home Delivery / Manage Account cancellation links on chicago.suntimes.com, or call customer service if you cannot complete the process online. This guide applies when your Chicago Sun-Times subscription (print home delivery, E-Paper, or other digital products) was purchased through suntimes.com, the linked Home Delivery portals (such as suntimesdeal.com), or is billed by Chicago Sun-Times Media, Inc. In that case, you cancel directly with Chicago Sun-Times using the Manage Account / Home Delivery tools or by phone. If your subscription was purchased through a third party, Chicago Sun-Times’ Terms of Sale state that you may also be subject to that third party’s cancellation policies and procedures, so you must follow the platform or vendor that bills you.
    • Keep the provider or billing-platform confirmation and verify the effective date before assuming future renewal has stopped.
    • Chicago Sun-Times generally does not provide pro-rated refunds when you cancel. Instead, your subscription runs until the end of the current billing period or prepaid term, and you may owe for any additional print deliveries during a grace period.
  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.

Chicago Sun Times support channels

Know which channel fits before you spend time repeating the same story.

  • Website (Chicago Sun-Times account)

    Use the Home Delivery and Manage Account tools on chicago.suntimes.com to stop auto-renewal for print or eligible digital subscriptions. Your subscription remains active until the end of the current billing period, at which point auto-renewal stops and future recurring charges from Chicago Sun-Times for that subscription should end.

  • Phone (Chicago Sun-Times customer service)

    Call Chicago Sun-Times customer service and ask a representative to cancel your subscription and stop auto-renewal at the end of the current billing period. Customer service can cancel your subscription on your behalf so that it ends at the close of the current billing period and does not auto-renew.

Chicago Sun Times FAQs

Short answers for the questions people usually ask before starting.

According to the Terms of Sale for both Digital Products and Print Products, a cancellation you initiate takes effect at the end of your current billing period, and you retain access to your subscription until that point. Cancellation affects future billing periods only; the current period remains payable.
No. The Home Delivery FAQ states that while you can cancel online or via the Manage My Account tools, the Chicago Sun-Times cannot process subscription cancellations by email, so you should use the website or call customer service instead.
No. The Home Delivery FAQ explains that even though Chicago Public Media and the Chicago Sun-Times are under one umbrella, a Chicago Public Media (WBEZ) membership does not include access to Chicago Sun-Times print or digital products, which are separate offers.
Print subscribers receive E-Paper and app access tied to their subscription once they activate their digital account. When the print subscription ends at the close of the billing period, the associated E-Paper and app access granted through that subscription can also end, consistent with the Print Products Terms of Sale and the description of digital access in the Home Delivery FAQ.
