How to Cancel Netflix Mobile Plan Subscription | नेटफ्लिक्स मोबाइल प्लान कैसे बंद करें
Netflix Mobile Plan is an affordable, India-exclusive subscription that allows streaming on one mobile or tablet device at a time in standard definition. This comprehensive guide covers all methods to cancel your Netflix Mobile Plan subscription, whether you subscribed directly through Netflix, Google Play Store, or a third-party telecom provider like Jio or Airtel.
Key Information: Canceling your Netflix Mobile Plan stops all future charges but you retain full access to Netflix content until the end of your current billing period. Your watchlist, viewing history, and account preferences are saved for up to 10 months, so you can pick up right where you left off if you decide to resubscribe later.
1. Canceling via Netflix Website
The most recommended method to cancel your Netflix Mobile Plan directly through the Netflix website:
- Visit www.netflix.com on your browser and sign in to your account
- Click your Profile Icon in the top-right corner
- Select Account from the dropdown menu
- Under the Membership & Billing section, click Cancel Membership
- Click Finish Cancellation to confirm
Note: After canceling, Netflix will display the exact date until which you have access to the Mobile Plan. You will also receive a confirmation email at your registered email address. No further charges will be made after this date.
2. Canceling via Netflix Mobile App
To cancel your Netflix Mobile Plan through the Netflix app on your Android or iOS device:
- Open the Netflix app on your smartphone
- Tap your Profile Icon in the top-right corner
- Tap Account
- This will open the Netflix website in your browser — sign in if prompted
- Under Membership & Billing, tap Cancel Membership
- Tap Finish Cancellation to confirm
Note: The Netflix app does not allow direct in-app cancellation — it always redirects to the Netflix website. If you subscribed through Google Play or Apple App Store, you must cancel through those platforms as described in the sections below.
3. Canceling via Google Play Store (Android)
For Netflix Mobile Plan subscriptions originally purchased through Google Play Store on Android:
- Open the Google Play Store app on your Android device
- Tap your Profile Icon in the top-right corner
- Go to Payments & Subscriptions → Subscriptions
- Find and tap Netflix from the list
- Tap Cancel Subscription
- Select a reason for cancellation and tap Continue
- Tap Cancel Subscription again to confirm
To Cancel Google Pay Autopay Mandate:
- Open the Google Pay app on your Android device
- Tap your Profile Icon → Manage Autopay
- Locate the Netflix mandate in the list
- Tap Manage → select Revoke or Cancel Mandate
- Confirm the revocation when prompted
Important: Revoking the Google Pay autopay mandate alone does not cancel your Netflix Mobile Plan subscription. You must also cancel the subscription from the Google Play Store to fully stop future charges. Always complete both steps to ensure no further deductions occur.
4. Canceling via Apple App Store (iOS)
For Netflix Mobile Plan subscriptions originally purchased through Apple App Store on iPhone or iPad:
- Open the Settings app on your iPhone or iPad
- Tap your Apple ID / Name at the top of the screen
- Tap Subscriptions
- Select Netflix from the active subscriptions list
- Tap Cancel Subscription and confirm when prompted
Note: Netflix Mobile Plan subscriptions billed through Apple cannot be canceled through the Netflix website or app. All refund requests for Apple-billed subscriptions must be submitted through reportaproblem.apple.com.
5. Canceling via Telecom Provider (Jio, Airtel, Vi)
If your Netflix Mobile Plan was bundled with a Jio, Airtel, or Vi telecom recharge plan, follow these steps:
- Check your Netflix account under Account → Membership & Billing to confirm which provider is billing you
- Contact your telecom provider through their official app, website, or customer care number
- Request cancellation of the Netflix add-on bundled with your plan
- Verify cancellation by checking your Netflix account page after a few hours
Provider-Specific Steps:
- Jio: Open the MyJio app → Go to My Plans → Find Netflix add-on → Select Unsubscribe
- Airtel: Open the Airtel Thanks app → Go to My Account → Select Manage Add-Ons → Cancel Netflix
- Vi (Vodafone Idea): Open the Vi app → Go to My Account → Select Active Add-Ons → Cancel Netflix
Critical: Netflix Mobile Plan subscriptions bundled with telecom providers cannot be canceled directly through the Netflix website. You must contact your telecom provider to cancel. Refund policies for telecom-bundled plans vary by provider — check with your provider for details.
6. Canceling via Paytm or Other Third-Party Platforms
If your Netflix Mobile Plan was subscribed through Paytm, PhonePe, or any other third-party platform:
- Open the respective app — Paytm, PhonePe, etc.
- Navigate to My Subscriptions or Manage Subscriptions section
- Find Netflix in the active subscriptions list
- Tap Cancel Subscription and confirm
- Verify cancellation by checking your Netflix account page
Note: Always verify that the cancellation is reflected in your Netflix account within 24 hours. If the status does not update, contact both the third-party platform and Netflix Support directly.
7. Canceling Bank-Linked Autopay
If Netflix Mobile Plan charges continue even after canceling the subscription through the steps above:
- Log in to your bank's internet banking portal or mobile banking app
- Navigate to Standing Instructions or Auto-Debit Mandates
- Locate the Netflix or payment gateway mandate
- Cancel or revoke the mandate immediately
- Contact your bank's customer support if you are unable to locate or cancel the mandate
Important Notes

- Watchlist & History: Your profiles, watchlist, viewing history, and preferences are saved for up to 10 months after cancellation
- Netflix Mobile Plan Price (India): ₹149/month — available exclusively in India, allows streaming on one phone or tablet in standard definition

- Verification: Always check for a confirmation email from Netflix after canceling your subscription
- Reactivation: You can reactivate Netflix at any time and all your saved preferences and profiles will be restored within the 10-month window
Troubleshooting
If Cancel Membership Option is Not Visible:
- Ensure you are signed in with the correct Netflix account
- Check if your subscription is managed through Google Play, Apple, or a telecom provider — Netflix will indicate this under Membership & Billing
- Try accessing the account page from a desktop browser instead of the mobile app
- Contact Netflix Support if the cancel option is still missing
If Charges Continue After Cancellation:
- Verify cancellation status on your Netflix account page under Membership & Billing
- Check if a telecom provider or third-party platform is still billing you separately
- Review your bank's auto-debit mandates and revoke if necessary
- Contact Netflix Support and raise a billing dispute with your bank if needed
If Netflix Account Shows Active After Cancellation:
- Wait up to 24 hours for the cancellation to reflect in your account
- Check your registered email for the cancellation confirmation
- Sign out and sign back into Netflix to refresh your account status
- Contact Netflix Support if the account still shows active after 24 hours
If You Want to Upgrade Instead of Canceling:
- Go to Account → Change Plan on the Netflix website
- Select a higher plan such as Basic (₹499), Standard (₹649), or Premium (₹799)
- The upgrade takes effect immediately and you will be billed the new amount on your next billing date

Alternatives to Canceling
- Upgrade Your Plan: If you need to watch on a TV or laptop, upgrade to Basic (₹499), Standard (₹649), or Premium (₹799) instead of canceling altogether
- Switch to a Telecom Bundle: Check if your Jio, Airtel, or Vi recharge plan includes Netflix Mobile as a complimentary add-on to reduce or eliminate the separate monthly charge
- Share with Family: Netflix Standard and Premium plans support multiple simultaneous streams — consider upgrading and splitting the cost with family members
- Pause Between Seasons: Cancel now and resubscribe only when new seasons of your favourite shows release — your preferences are saved for up to 10 months
- Explore Free Trials: If resubscribing later, check for any available free trial or promotional offers on the Netflix website before choosing a plan
Before canceling, check with your telecom provider — Jio, Airtel, or Vi — to see if any current recharge plan includes the Netflix Mobile Plan as a complimentary benefit. Switching to such a plan may allow you to enjoy Netflix at no additional cost beyond your regular mobile recharge.
