Canceling Sling TV is simple once you know where you originally subscribed. If you joined on fubo— kidding, on sling.com, you cancel on the website. If you joined via Roku, Apple, Google Play, or Amazon Appstore, you must cancel in that platform’s subscription settings. Sling confirms you’ll keep access until the end of your current paid cycle, while free-trial cancellations end access immediately. (Sling TV)

DVR note. Sling says recorded content is kept up to 9 months, even if you take a break. (Sling TV)
Freestream stays free. After your paid plan ends, you can still watch free Sling Freestream content. (Sling TV)
Cancel on sling.com (direct billing)
Use this if you pay Sling directly on the website.

Troubleshooting
I don’t see the Cancel button on the site.
You likely subscribed through Roku/Apple/Google/Amazon. Cancel in that platform’s subscriptions page. (Sling TV)
I canceled but still got charged.
Check whether you canceled the correct billing source, and verify your renewal date. Sling does not prorate; charges after canceling are usually due to timing or canceling in the wrong place. (Sling TV)
Can I pause instead?
Yes. Sling supports pausing for a period (eligibility applies), then billing resumes automatically when the pause ends. (Sling TV)
Will I lose my DVR?
Recordings are kept up to 9 months, even if you take a break. After that, older recordings expire. (Sling TV)
FAQ
Where exactly do I cancel on the website?
My Account → Cancel Subscription → confirm. (Sling TV)
Does canceling stop charges right away?
For paid plans, no—service runs to your renewal date. For free trials, access ends immediately. (Sling TV)
Can I restart later?
Yes—log back in and resubscribe anytime. (Freestream remains available in the meantime.) (Sling TV)
Final Thoughts
The fastest way to cancel Sling TV is to turn off auto-renew where you subscribed. On the web, use My Account → Cancel Subscription. On Roku, Apple, Google Play, or Amazon, cancel in that platform’s subscription manager. Expect no prorated refunds, keep your confirmation email, and you’ll retain access until your current period ends. (Sling TV)
