How to Terminate Your Membership with Amazon Prime Video

Are you not getting the most out of your Amazon Prime Video membership? The Prime Video platform has a vast amount of material. There are several fantastic TV series and Amazon Original films. Additionally, if you log into Prime Video from a different country, you can always discover fresh material. But if you want to reduce downtime and save some money at the same time, here's how to quickly cancel your Prime Video membership.

The Way to End Prime Video in 2022

In some nations, Amazon offers the Prime Video membership as a stand-alone service; in other nations, it comes as a combined package. Amazon Music, Prime Video, Prime Delivery, and other features are often included in the bundle. So, here's how to cancel your Prime Video membership if you've made the decision to say goodbye to all of these services.

What Takes Place If Your Prime Video Subscription Is Canceled?

Let's review some things to keep in mind when modifying your Amazon Prime Video subscription before we remove our Prime access to Amazon Services.

  • If you are using a bundled package of Prime Services, canceling one subscription will also affect others. Consequently, you won’t be able to use any Prime service unless you resume your plan.
  • Your Prime Subscription benefits won’t lapse until the last date of your current subscription plan.
  • You can not cancel a subscription managed by a third-party service like a sim card company or a plan you got with a device. If you wish to cancel such a plan, please get in touch with the third-party company’s customer service.
  • You can not end membership if you don’t have recurring payments enabled. The service purchased with a one-time payment automatically ends when your current plan expires. So, there is no need to cancel it anyway.
  • Some countries like Canada have removed the option to cancel the Prime Video membership via the methods described below. In such cases, please get in touch with Amazon’s customer care service for further assistance.

Commonly Asked Questions

Can I discontinue my subscription with Prime Video at any time?

Indeed, you are free to end your Prime Video membership whenever you'd want. Furthermore, Amazon will reimburse you in full if you use a credit card to pay for the membership and cancel it within three days. If not, you may continue to utilize your Prime Video membership until the end of the monthly period. Unfortunately, if the plan is run by a third-party company, such as a cellular data provider, you are unable to cancel it directly.

How do I end my Amazon Prime trial?

From your account settings on the Amazon website, you may easily cancel your free membership to Amazon Prime. For easy navigation, please read the comprehensive instructions provided in the article. Following a price increase at the end of 2021, Amazon has just discontinued its free Prime membership program.

Why am I unable to access my Prime Video account's "end membership" option?

In certain cases, the option to discontinue membership is not accessible. If you have deactivated auto-renewal and used a single payment method, you will not see the terminate membership option. In a similar vein, cancel auto-renewal can appear rather than cease membership. If you disable auto-renewal, the payments will cease and your Prime Video membership will be automatically terminated at the end of the monthly period.
