Cancel Shudder yourself

TLDR: If Shudder.com bills you, cancel in Account in a browser and cancel PayPal too if you paid that way, or cancel with Apple, Google, Roku, Amazon or Samsung if they bill you. You keep the paid term, and a partial period is not refunded.

How to know it worked

  • A website cancellation emails you a confirmation. Keep it.
  • Google Play shows a cancellation message and emails you. The plan stops at the end of the current billing cycle.
  • You keep a paid plan through the end of the term you already paid, then it ends.
  • Cancel during a free trial, a promo code, or other credits, and the terms say the cancellation can take effect immediately.

Watch out for

  • US prices on a new website membership are $9.99 a month for Monthly Premium, $99.99 a year for Annual Premium, or $7.99 a month for Monthly with Ads. Taxes may apply.
  • Annual Premium is the $8.34 a month rate, billed once a year. Monthly with Ads is US only, has no downloads, and is not supported on Xbox.
  • A first-time trial lasts seven days. It ends on the seventh day at the same time you created the account, unless you cancel.
  • Live TV and some on-demand titles can still include ads, promos, or sponsorships. Some titles cannot be downloaded.
  • Deleting the app or channel leaves the membership running.
  • If you do not know who bills you, Shudder's cancel guide asks what the charge says. Its choices are Shudder.com NY, GOOGLE*Shudder, Apple.com, Amazon, Primevideo, Roku, and Samsung.
  • A price increase comes with at least 30 days' written notice and starts after the period you already paid.

Shudder refunds

  • AMC does not refund or credit a partial billing period, a partial subscription period, or shows you did not watch, unless the law requires it.
  • It may give a credit at its discretion. A credit once does not mean it will give one again.
  • Website refunds are the only ones Shudder's own support can process. Apple, Google, Roku, Amazon, and Samsung refunds go to that company.
  • Cancel before a free trial ends and the terms say the card is not charged.

If it did not work

No confirmation email? Then it didn't happen.

Our letter comes with a receipt. This is when it is worth having us do it.

Have us cancel Shudder
  • You cannot log in, or do not remember the email

    The notice goes to AMC Global Media in your name and address. No login, no password.

  • PayPal kept charging after you cancelled on the website

    The notice goes to AMC Global Media. Shudder also says you must cancel the recurring PayPal payment yourself, or PayPal keeps billing.

  • You were charged after cancelling

    The dated notice and proof of delivery are what your bank asks for when you dispute the charge.

  • You deleted the app and the charge continued

    The notice puts the cancellation date in writing. Shudder says deleting the app does not stop Apple, Google, Roku, Amazon, or Samsung. Cancel with the company that bills you too.

Cancelling Shudder

What people ask about Shudder.

What is the Shudder.com NY or GOOGLE*Shudder charge?

Shudder's cancel guide uses those words for the billing description. Shudder.com NY means Shudder bills you on the website. GOOGLE*Shudder means Google Play bills you. Other descriptions it lists are Apple.com, Amazon, Primevideo, Roku, and Samsung.

How much is Shudder in the US?

On a new website membership, Monthly Premium is $9.99 a month, Annual Premium is $99.99 a year, and Monthly with Ads is $7.99 a month. Taxes may apply. A first-time trial is seven days.

I pay with PayPal. Is cancelling on the website enough?

No. Shudder says to cancel on the website and also cancel the recurring PayPal payment. Otherwise PayPal keeps billing.

Does deleting the Shudder app cancel it?

No. Shudder says you still have to cancel with the company that bills you. That is Shudder's website, Apple, Google Play, Roku, Amazon, or Samsung.

Can I get a refund from Shudder?

Usually not for a partly used period or for shows you did not watch. The terms allow a refund or credit only where the law requires it, or if AMC chooses to give one. A charge from Apple, Google, Roku, Amazon, or Samsung has to be taken up with that company.

Can you cancel Shudder without me logging in?

Yes. The notice goes to Shudder in writing, so it does not depend on you reaching a cancel button inside your account. A lost password or a locked account does not stop it.

Does the letter ask them to delete my data?

Yes. It asks the company to erase the personal data it holds on you where it has no lawful reason to keep it, and to confirm in writing once it has.
