How to cancel your Netflix subscription no matter how you signed up
Depending on how you signed up for Netflix there's an easy way to cancel your subscription.
You can cancel your Netflix subscription whenever you want, it just all depends on how you pay your bill.
If you've deleted your profile that isn't the same as cancelling your Netflix subscription - you'll still be billed until you actually cancel.
When you set up your subscription to any service the first thing is to check when the payment goes out your account - we know, it's something we all forget.
If you then want to cancel you have plenty of time. Next, you need to note how you're paying for Netflix.
If you subscribe directly to Netflix then it's easy, just cancel your subscription on the website on the web browser you use.

If it's iTunes you need to unsubscribe using your iPhone or iPad. There's also the possibility that you're using a third-party like your smart TV or a provider like Sky.
First, don't just delete your Netflix profile as this doesn't cancel your bill. You will still be charged if you do this.
