1. List every recurring charge
Check your card and bank statements for the last two or three months and list every charge that repeats: streaming, apps, software, memberships and cloud storage.
2. Mark each one: keep, downgrade or cancel
- Keep what you use every week
- Downgrade what you use occasionally (a cheaper tier or an ad-supported plan)
- Cancel what you haven’t used in the last month
- Look for duplicates: two people paying for the same service
3. Cancel the right way
Cancel through the service’s account settings or the app store where you subscribed, and keep the confirmation. Check the next statement to make sure the charge stopped.
4. Set a review reminder
Put a reminder on your calendar every three months. Most forgotten subscriptions come from free trials and annual renewals.

Questions
- Will cancelling a subscription give me a refund?
- Usually not for the current period, but you keep access until it ends. Some services offer refunds on request, especially for recent renewals; it’s worth asking.
- How often should I review subscriptions?
- Every three months is a good habit, plus right before any annual renewal.
