How to Cancel Starz Free Trial (Step by step)
If you don’t know how you signed up for the free trial in the first place, now’s the time to find out. You’ll need to know this information in order to go ahead with your Starz entertainment cancellation. If you started the free trial with a service other than Starz or their app, then you’ll need to go through that service to cancel.

No matter whether you choose to use the site or the app, you need to log in so you can get to your Starz account.
2. Once you're in, go to "Settings."
In the app, this will let you go to “Account management.” From there, you can view a list of options, including “My Subscription.”
On the website, you can go right from “Settings” to “My Subscription.”
