How To Take Off Youtube Premium Free Trial

Alright, you savvy streamer! You've bravely ventured into the land of ad-free YouTube bliss with a free trial of YouTube Premium. Now, your trial is ending. Time to learn how to remove your credit card info from YouTube Premium.

The Great Escape: Canceling Your YouTube Premium Free Trial

Don't worry, it's easier than untangling a ball of Christmas lights (and probably less stressful!). Think of it as gracefully exiting a VIP party – no drama, just a smooth transition back to the regular shindig.

Option 1: The Desktop Detour

First, fire up your trusty computer. Open your web browser and head over to YouTube.

Now, click on your profile picture. It's usually in the top right corner of the screen.

A menu will appear. Look for the "Purchases and memberships" option and click on it.

You should see your YouTube Premium membership listed. Next to it, there's likely a "Manage membership" or "Deactivate" button. Click that bad boy!

YouTube might try to convince you to stay with all sorts of tempting offers. They might tell you about artists that are great with ad-free listening. Don't fall for it.

You'll be guided through a few more steps. Just follow the prompts to confirm your cancellation.

You might have to select the reason for cancelling. Choose wisely my friend.

Boom! You’re done.

Option 2: The Mobile Maneuver

Prefer to handle things on your phone? No problem! This method works for both Android and iPhone users.

Open the YouTube app on your phone or tablet.

Tap on your profile picture. This time, it's usually in the top right corner of the app.

A menu will pop up. Find "Purchases and memberships" and tap on it.

Tap the listing of the YouTube Premium membership that is active.

The next page you see should contain a “Manage” section. Tap on that section!

The specific wording may vary slightly depending on whether you subscribed through Google Play (Android) or the App Store (iPhone).

You'll likely see an option to cancel the membership, probably under a "Cancel Membership" button. Tap that.

A popup will appear. You will be asked again why you are cancelling the YouTube Premium subscription. Choose an answer.

Follow any on-screen instructions to finalize the cancellation.

Congratulations! You have removed your information.

Important Things to Remember

Even after you cancel, you'll usually still have access to YouTube Premium features until the end of your free trial period. Enjoy every last second!

Keep an eye on your email for a confirmation message from YouTube. This is your official proof that you've successfully canceled. You need proof.

If you accidentally re-subscribe (hey, it happens!), don't panic! Contact YouTube support and explain the situation. They're usually pretty understanding.

And there you have it! You've successfully navigated the cancellation process. Now go forth and enjoy all the free YouTube content your heart desires (with a few ads sprinkled in, of course!).
