You and NFL Plus: A Match Made in...Preseason? How to Cancel Your Free Trial Before the Refs Blow the Whistle on Your Wallet
So, you dipped your toe into the NFL Plus game. You dreamt of highlight reels, exclusive content, and maybe even reliving the glory days of your favorite team (let's not dwell on which team that might be). But now, reality sets in faster than a fumble recovered for a touchdown. The free trial is about to end, and suddenly that monthly fee looks less like a Hail Mary and more like an interception. Fear not, fellow football fan! We've all been there (except maybe Tom Brady, that man defies the laws of time and credit card bills). Here's your survival guide to cancelling that NFL Plus free trial smoother than a Roger Goodell press conference.
Signing Up Was Easy, But Cancellation Shouldn't Be a Fourth-Down Scramble
Let's be honest, signing up for the free trial was a breeze. It was all sunshine and end zone dances. But cancelling? Now that can feel like navigating a maze designed by Bill Belichick himself. Don't worry, though, because we're about to break it down for you in three easy steps, so clear you'll understand it even if you haven't memorized the offside penalty rules.
The Three Plays to Freedom (From Automatic Payments):
-
Head to the Web: Just like you signed up online, cancellation central is also on the NFL website. Get yourself to NFL.com and log in. It's time to revisit your account, but this time with a determined glint in your eye (or maybe just with another browser window open for highlights because, let's face it, we all love football).
-
Find Your Account Settings: Here's where things might get a little tricky. NFL.com loves its menus more than Peyton Manning loves Papa John's. But don't worry, be persistent. Look for something like "My Account," "Settings," or "Profile." Pro tip: If you get lost, just imagine you're looking for the concession stand – you'll find your way eventually.
-
Deliver the Cancellation Blowout: Once you've wrestled your way into your account settings, there should be a glorious section called "Subscriptions" or something similar. Here's where you find the unsubscribe button, the holy grail of free trial escape. Click it with the same decisiveness you'd use to spike the football after a touchdown (although, please don't actually spike your phone or computer). You might get a guilt trip message asking why you're leaving, but resist the urge to reminisce about that amazing catch from your childhood. Just pick a reason, any reason, and confirm your cancellation.
Congratulations! You've successfully avoided a flag for holding onto your hard-earned cash. You'll still have access to NFL Plus until the end of your current billing cycle, so feel free to enjoy some highlight reels or catch up on analysis. But come the next month, your wallet will thank you.
Now, before you head back to the world of fantasy football and questionable referee calls, here's a bonus tip: If you signed up for NFL Plus through a third-party platform like Amazon Prime or Google Play, you'll need to cancel through their system instead. But fear not, a quick Google search (or maybe a consult with your resident tech-savvy friend) should have you cancelling like a seasoned pro in no time.
So there you have it, folks. With these tips, cancelling your NFL Plus free trial will be easier than a wide-open touchdown pass. Now get out there and enjoy the rest of the season (or use this newfound free time to perfect your own Hail Mary recipe – who knows, it might be tastier than some of the officiating calls we've seen lately).
