How to Cancel SiriusXM (2026 guide)

Q: Will I get a refund if I cancel SiriusXM?

SiriusXM typically doesn't provide refunds for prepaid subscriptions. However, they may offer prorated refunds in certain circumstances if you call and request one.

Q: Can I cancel SiriusXM online?

No, SiriusXM requires phone cancellation. You cannot cancel your subscription through their website or mobile app - you must call customer service.

Q: What happens after I cancel SiriusXM?

Your service continues until the end of your current billing period. After that, you'll lose access to SiriusXM channels but can still use regular AM/FM radio.

Q: Why can't I find the cancel button on SiriusXM?

SiriusXM intentionally doesn't offer online cancellation. This allows them to make retention offers when you call to cancel, which is their standard business practice.

Q: Does deleting the SiriusXM app cancel my subscription?

No, deleting the app doesn't cancel your subscription. You'll still be charged monthly or annually until you call customer service to formally cancel.

Q: Can I cancel SiriusXM without calling?

The only alternatives to calling are sending certified mail or visiting a SiriusXM retail location, but phone cancellation is by far the fastest method.

Q: How do I avoid SiriusXM retention offers?

Be direct and firm. Say "I want to cancel my subscription immediately" and decline all offers. Don't explain why you're cancelling as this gives them openings to make counteroffers.

Cancelling SiriusXM can be tricky since they don't offer online cancellation and are known for aggressive retention tactics. This guide covers the phone cancellation process and what to expect when you call.
