Many people even do so to just watch a bunch of things and then deactivate when they’re done. With the traffic of content we have today, there are too many alternatives that could be more enticing for the larger audience. Here are a few things to know about Starz, it’s fee and other subscription related questions before we jump on to the cancellation process
- Although many confuse the streaming service with Amazon’s own Prime Video. You do not get a Starz subscription with Amazon Prime. It is a separate streaming service that is on a paid subscription basis. You do, however, get a 7-day free trial, just as any other subscription provides.
- Different services offer Starz at a different rate, therefore you should do your research before choosing yours. But the range is somewhere from $8-10 and not more. On Prime Video specifically, it costs $8.99 to subscribe. It is also important to note, the rate may vary with currency change, depending on which region you are using it from.
- There are no late termination fees attached to canceling your account, no matter when you decide to cancel. Refunds are, however, another matter. But as of cancellation policy, there are no restrictions on when you can cancel your account. Whether near the renewal date or within the free trial period, you can discontinue whenever you want.
- Lastly, the refund policy for most services with Amazon is crystal clear. If you have already used a service, you are most likely to not get any refund. But there is an exception for a case if you apply for cancellation within a week.
