Cancel Hulu Plus

So, you're tired of Hulu+, and are plugging in your cable again? If you want to cancel your account with Hulu, it's easy, quick, and even a little entertaining.

Steps

Canceling on Hulu

  1. Sign into your Hulu Plus account. Navigate to Hulu at http://www.hulu.com. Log in with Facebook, or log in with your email and password.
  2. Access your account info. Click on your name or picture in the upper right hand corner of the screen, and then select "Account" from the drop down menu.
  3. Click "Cancel subscription." In the lower right of the Account tab, locate and click on the "Cancel subscription" link.
  4. Watch an amusing compilation. Hulu will play an 11-second plea saying "don't go." If you remain unmoved, you can proceed with the cancellation.
  5. Read the terms and conditions. It's about eight pages long, but is more about signing up than signing off. The terms pertinent to cancellation say, in essence, that you have to pay for the services you received. It's recommended that you review these for yourself before proceeding.
  6. Click Cancel. Once you're satisfied the terms are acceptable, and you want to go ahead with the cancellation, click the gray Cancel button.
    • When your cancellation is finalized by Hulu, you'll receive an email confirmation. Keep this for your records.[1]

Canceling on iTunes

  1. Go to the iTunes store. From the home page, click on your Apple ID and choose "Account" from the menu. Sign in with your Apple ID and password.
  2. Manage Subscriptions. Scroll to the bottom of your account page, and find "Subscriptions" in the Settings section. Click on the "Manage>" link to the right of that.
  3. Locate your Hulu Plus subscription. You will see details about your subscription and renewal status. Click on the "Edit>" link to the right.
  4. Turn off Auto-Renewal. This will cancel your subscription at that end of the billing period.[2]

Tips

  • If you plan on re-subscribing within the next three months, Hulu recommends you simply suspend your account. Follow the "Canceling on Hulu" method above, and instead of clicking the Cancel button, click "Put my account on hold." Note: you cannot perform this function from within iTunes.

Warnings

  • If you cancel your Hulu Plus account during the trial period, access to Hulu Plus will be suspended immediately.
