Quick Facts
Watch Out
Sony replaced 'Turn Off Auto-Renewal' with 'Cancel Subscription' — this sounds like it ends your service immediately, but it actually just stops future billing. Many users avoid clicking it and get charged for another cycle.
If your PSN wallet doesn't have enough funds at renewal time, Sony automatically charges your default payment method to cover the difference — you can't just empty your wallet to prevent charges.
When you click Cancel Subscription, Sony may present a 25% retention discount to keep you subscribed, adding an extra step before you can actually cancel.
Annual plan subscribers get no refund after 14 days — you're locked in for the full year.
The 14-day refund window starts when you sign up for a free trial, not when you're first charged. So a 7-day trial leaves you only 7 days after the first charge to request a refund.
Monthly games you claimed are locked after your subscription expires. They remain in your library but are unplayable until you resubscribe.
What Happens After You Cancel
Access
You keep full access to all PS Plus benefits until the end of your current billing period.
Your data
Your account and claimed games remain in your library indefinitely. Cloud saves are retained on Sony's servers for a period after expiration but become inaccessible without an active subscription.
