If you are on a free trial and decide not to keep it, or if you want to reduce expenses, here is a simple way to cancel audible subscription.
Important Points
Before you cancel audible subscription, remember these points about ending your Audible service:
- Use Your Credits: Before canceling, make sure to use any unused credits you have. Items purchased with Audible credits are yours forever, even after cancellation.
- Website, Not App: To cancel your Audible subscription, visit the Audible website (you can do this on your phone or computer using a browser). The app generally does not allow cancellation.
- Possible Deals: Audible may offer deals to prevent cancellation. These could include a free month, discounted rates for a few months, or a year of Audible at a rate lower than your monthly fee.
- Billing Cycle: Your Audible subscription continues until the end of your billing cycle. For instance, if you cancel on the 4th day of the month and your billing date is the 12, you would still have 7 days of access until it ends on the 11th.
