How to Cancel PlayStation Plus: A Step-by-Step Guide
Are you looking to cancel your PlayStation Plus subscription? Perhaps you're finding you're not using the service enough, or maybe you've found a better alternative. Whatever the reason, cancelling your PlayStation Plus subscription is a straightforward process. This guide will walk you through the steps, regardless of whether you're using a PlayStation console or managing your subscription online.
Cancelling PlayStation Plus on Your Console
This method is perfect if you prefer managing your subscriptions directly on your PlayStation console. It's quick and easy.
Step 1: Access Account Settings:
Navigate to your PlayStation console's main menu. Find and select your profile icon, usually located in the top-right corner. Then, choose Settings.
Step 2: Locate PlayStation Store Management:
Within the Settings menu, scroll down until you find Users and Accounts. Select this option.
Step 3: Manage Subscriptions:
Next, look for the option labelled Account. Inside this menu, you should find Subscriptions. This is where you manage all your active PlayStation subscriptions.
Step 4: Select PlayStation Plus:
You'll see a list of your active subscriptions. Locate your PlayStation Plus subscription.
Step 5: Cancel Your Subscription:
Select your PlayStation Plus subscription. You'll then see an option to cancel your subscription. The exact wording may vary slightly depending on your console's firmware version. Carefully read any information provided before confirming your cancellation. PlayStation often provides details about when your subscription will end.
Step 6: Confirm Cancellation:
Once you've selected the cancellation option, the console will ask you to confirm. Double-check everything before proceeding. Once confirmed, your PlayStation Plus subscription will be cancelled.
Cancelling PlayStation Plus Online
For those who prefer managing their subscriptions through a web browser, this method offers the same functionality.
Step 1: Access the PlayStation Store Website:
Go to the official PlayStation Store website (Note: I will not provide a direct link, please search for it on Google). You'll need to be logged into your PlayStation account.
Step 2: Access Account Settings:
Once logged in, find your account settings – this is usually accessible through a profile icon or a similar button.
Step 3: Navigate to Subscriptions:
Look for a section dedicated to your subscriptions or billing information. The exact location might vary slightly depending on the website's design.
Step 4: Find and Cancel PlayStation Plus:
Locate your PlayStation Plus subscription in the list of your active subscriptions. Select it to access the cancellation options.
Step 5: Confirm Your Cancellation:
Similar to the console method, you'll be prompted to confirm your cancellation. Carefully review the details before confirming. Once confirmed, your PlayStation Plus subscription is cancelled.
Important Considerations Before Cancelling:
- Timing: Remember that cancelling doesn't immediately terminate your access. You'll continue to enjoy the benefits of PlayStation Plus until your current billing cycle ends.
- Refunds: PlayStation generally doesn't offer refunds for cancelled subscriptions.
- Re-subscription: If you change your mind, you can always resubscribe to PlayStation Plus at any time.
By following these steps, you can successfully cancel your PlayStation Plus subscription and manage your PlayStation account effectively. Remember to always double-check your actions before confirming any changes.
