How to cancel SiriusXM

Quick answer: SiriusXM is one of the hardest to quit — there’s no real one-click online cancel, so you’re routed to a retention agent by phone or chat who will offer aggressive discounts.

This guide shows how to cancel, unsubscribe from, or stop your SiriusXM subscription — on iPhone, Android or the web — and how to turn off auto-renewal so you're not charged again.

How to cancel SiriusXM: step-by-step

The cancel button only exists where the charge comes from. Check your card statement: APPLE.COM/BILL → use Apple, GOOGLE * → use Google Play, otherwise you were billed directly by SiriusXM.

⚠️ Watch out for

  • Agents are trained to keep you — expect multiple “half price” offers before they process it.
  • Cancel before your renewal date; SiriusXM generally doesn’t refund a new term.
  • If you accept a discount you’re starting a new term, not cancelling.

How to cancel SiriusXM — FAQ

Can I cancel SiriusXM online?

Not with a simple button — you must go through chat or phone with a retention agent. Chat is usually faster than calling.

How do I cancel SiriusXM on iPhone or Android?

If you signed up directly, you can cancel SiriusXM from any phone or computer browser in your account settings. If you subscribed through the Apple App Store or Google Play, cancel in that store's Subscriptions screen instead — deleting the SiriusXM app does not stop the billing.

How do I unsubscribe from SiriusXM without being charged again?

Cancel before your next renewal date. SiriusXM keeps your access until the end of the period you've already paid for, and once cancellation is confirmed you won't be billed again. Turning off auto-renewal has the same effect.

Can I cancel SiriusXM without logging in or without account access?

If you can't log in, recover your account first — or cancel where you're billed. The Apple App Store, Google Play or PayPal can stop the payment even without SiriusXM account access. As a last resort, ask your bank to block the recurring charge.

How do I get a refund or stop being charged by SiriusXM?

Turn off auto-renewal or cancel first so no new charges occur. For money already taken, request a refund from SiriusXM (or from Apple/Google if you were billed there). If they refuse and you cancelled in time, dispute the charge with your bank.

Still being charged?

If SiriusXM won’t let you cancel, send a certified cancellation letter (it’s legally binding), then dispute the charge with your bank and file an FTC complaint.
