Streaming on Netflix gives you hundreds to thousands of movies and TV series episodes to choose from. You can binge-watch your favorite original shows or rerun classic movies several times in a row. Many users enjoy watching shows on Netflix. But, with the streaming service increasing its monthly subscription cost, and the competition getting stiffer with the launch of new platforms, some users consider canceling Netflix.

There are different reasons why you might want to cancel Netflix. It can be due to the price hike or probably you found another home and you’re transferring to another streaming service like Amazon Prime Video, HBO Max, Hulu, Disney Plus, Peacock, Discovery Plus, or Paramount Plus. Whatever is your reason, you can cancel your Netflix membership plan at any time.
