Cancel Sundance Now: The Right Way
How to cancel sundance now in singapore: a step-by-step guide
What is sundance now and who should cancel
Sundance Now is a streaming service dedicated to independent films, documentaries, and original series that cater to viewers seeking curated, artistic content outside the mainstream. You may have signed up directly through the website, bundled within AMC+, or via an app store on your device. If you've decided the service no longer fits your viewing habits or budget, Stopee is here to guide you through cancellation with clarity and confidence.
Understanding your subscription type
Your cancellation method depends entirely on how you signed up. If you subscribed directly on the Sundance Now website, you'll cancel through their account settings. If you purchased through Apple App Store, Google Play, Roku, Amazon Prime Video, or Fire TV, you'll need to cancel through that platform instead. This matters because each route follows different steps and refund rules.
Why subscribers cancel
You might cancel because you've finished watching what interested you, discovered overlapping content elsewhere, or realised the SGD 6.34 to SGD 11.43 monthly charge (for AMC+ bundles in Singapore) doesn't align with your current priorities. Whatever your reason, cancelling promptly stops future charges and preserves your right to potential refunds in specific situations.
How to cancel sundance now if you subscribed directly
Direct subscriptions through the Sundance Now website are the most straightforward to cancel, but you must use a web browser and not the mobile app.
Step-by-step cancellation via website
- Open a web browser on your computer and visit the Sundance Now website.
- Sign in using your email address and password.
- Navigate to your account settings (usually found under "My Account" or a profile icon).
- Select "Membership Settings" or "Subscription" from the menu.
- Click the "Cancel Subscription" button.
- Confirm your cancellation when prompted. Warning: Some services ask you to provide feedback before confirming; this is optional and does not delay your cancellation.
- You will receive a confirmation email confirming the cancellation date. Keep this for your records.
Important: why the app won't work for cancellations
Sundance Now's mobile app does not permit subscription cancellations for direct sign-ups. Even if you see payment details in the app, you cannot cancel from there. Pro tip: Always use a desktop or laptop browser to manage direct subscription cancellations. This protects you from accidentally clicking the wrong button and applies across most streaming services.
How to cancel sundance now if you subscribed through an app store or device
App store cancellations work differently because the retailer (Apple, Google, Roku, Amazon) manages billing, not Sundance Now directly. You'll cancel through each platform's subscription management portal.
Cancelling through apple (iOS)
- On your iPhone or iPad, open the Settings app.
- Tap your name at the top of the screen.
- Select "Subscriptions."
- Find and tap "Sundance Now" in the list.
- Tap "Cancel Subscription" and confirm your cancellation.
- Alternatively, visit appleid.apple.com, sign in, navigate to Subscriptions, and cancel Sundance Now from there.
Cancelling through google play (Android)
- Open the Google Play Store app on your Android device or visit play.google.com in a web browser.
- Tap the profile icon in the top right corner and select "Subscriptions" (or go directly to play.google.com/store/account/subscriptions).
- Select "Sundance Now" from your subscriptions list.
- Tap "Cancel subscription" and confirm.
- Pro tip: Google processes cancellations immediately but access continues until the end of your current billing period.
Cancelling through roku
- Visit my.roku.com and sign in to your Roku account.
- Navigate to "My Account" and select "Subscriptions."
- Find "Sundance Now" and click "Manage Subscription."
- Select "Cancel" and confirm your request.
- You will receive a confirmation email once the cancellation is processed.
Cancelling through amazon prime video or fire TV
- For Prime Video: sign in to amazon.com, go to "Account & Lists," then "Your Account," and select "Memberships and Subscriptions."
- Locate "Manage Your Prime Video Channels" and find Sundance Now.
- Click "Cancel Channel" and confirm.
- For Fire TV subscriptions purchased separately, visit amazon.com/appstoresubscriptions, select your device, find Sundance Now, and cancel from there.
What happens immediately after you cancel
Cancellation can feel uncertain because your access doesn't stop immediately. Understanding the timeline removes anxiety and helps you plan what to watch before you lose access.
Access and billing after cancellation
After you cancel, your subscription will continue until the end of your current paid billing period. If you paid for a monthly subscription and cancelled mid-month, you retain access until that calendar month ends. If you're on an annual plan, you keep access for the full year you paid for. Warning: Your subscription will not automatically renew after this period; however, you should verify the cancellation confirmation email to ensure the service accepted your request.
Account data and saved content
Your profile, watch history, ratings, and account credentials remain in your Sundance Now account unless you separately request account deletion. This means if you return to the service months later, your history will still be there. Downloaded or offline content you cached through the app may become inaccessible once your subscription ends, as DRM (digital rights management) controls prevent playback without an active subscription.
Refund eligibility and your rights in singapore
Sundance Now does not offer pro-rated refunds for unused portions of your subscription under standard policy. However, Singapore's Consumer Protection (Fair Trading) Act gives you specific protections in certain situations.
When sundance now will issue a refund
Refunds are rare but possible in these scenarios:
- Accidental charges or double billing within a short window (typically up to 14 days).
- Technical access problems preventing you from using the service during your paid period.
- Proven billing errors on the company's part.
To request a refund, email Sundance Now's support team with your account details, subscription dates, and a clear explanation of why you believe a refund applies. Stopee recommends keeping screenshots of your billing statements and account access errors as evidence.
App store and platform refunds
If you subscribed through Apple, Google Play, Roku, or Amazon, those platforms have their own refund policies independent of Sundance Now:
- Apple: Offers refunds for in-app subscriptions within 14 days of purchase. Contact Apple Support directly.
- Google Play: Allows refund requests within 48 hours of purchase. Visit your order history in the Play Store to request a refund.
- Amazon: Follows Amazon's standard refund policy, typically up to 48 hours for subscription charges. Contact Amazon Customer Service.
- Roku: Handles refund requests case-by-case. Email Roku Support with your subscription details.
Your consumer protection rights
Singapore's Consumer Protection (Fair Trading) Act protects you against unfair contract terms and deceptive billing practices. If Sundance Now continues charging you after cancellation, charges you without authorisation, or misrepresents the subscription terms, you have the right to lodge a complaint with the Consumers Association of Singapore (CASE). Pro tip: CASE offers free mediation services and can escalate disputes to formal adjudication if the company refuses to resolve the issue.
Additionally, if you paid via credit or debit card and believe the charge was unauthorised, you can dispute the transaction with your bank within the timeframe specified in your card agreement (often 60-90 days).
Pricing and plan comparison for singapore subscribers
Understanding what you're cancelling helps clarify whether the service justifies its cost in your situation.
Sundance now pricing in singapore
| Plan | Monthly cost | Annual cost | Key features |
|---|---|---|---|
| AMC+ bundle with ads (recommended for budget-conscious viewers) | SGD 6.34 | SGD 68-76 (estimated) | Sundance Now, AMC, BBC America, IFC; ad-supported |
| AMC+ bundle ad-free (best value for cinephiles) | SGD 11.43 | SGD 106.66 | Sundance Now, AMC, BBC America, IFC; no ads |
| Sundance Now standalone (US pricing, availability limited in Singapore) | USD 7.99 (approximately SGD 11) | USD 74.99 (approximately SGD 100) | Independent films, documentaries, originals; ad-free |
Most Singapore subscribers access Sundance Now through AMC+ bundles rather than standalone subscriptions. If you're paying AMC+ prices and realise you only want Sundance Now content, cancelling the bundle and exploring single-service alternatives may be more cost-effective. Stopee's cancellation guides cover competing services so you can compare before deciding.
Common cancellation mistakes and how to avoid them
Cancellation seems simple but tiny oversights can leave you paying for weeks you don't intend to use. We've helped thousands of consumers spot these traps before they cost money.
Mistake 1: forgetting to cancel through the correct platform
You signed up through Google Play but try to cancel on the Sundance Now website. Your cancellation request disappears into the void because the two systems aren't connected. Action: Cross-reference your original sign-up email or bank statement to confirm which platform billed you, then cancel exclusively through that channel.
Mistake 2: assuming cancellation takes effect immediately
You cancel expecting your next month's charge to vanish. Instead, you're charged again because cancellation stops future renewals but doesn't pause the current billing period. Pro tip: Circle the date your current subscription ends on your calendar, verify that charge doesn't appear on your next billing cycle, and wait 5-7 business days for confirmation emails from both Sundance Now and your payment provider.
Mistake 3: closing your account instead of cancelling the subscription
You delete your Sundance Now profile thinking this stops charges. Account deletion is separate from subscription cancellation, and you may still be billed. Action: Always cancel the subscription first through your account settings, receive confirmation, and only then delete the account if you wish to remove personal data.
Mistake 4: ignoring hidden auto-renewal settings
You click "Cancel" but miss a checkbox buried in the confirmation screen that keeps auto-renewal enabled. The system treats you as cancelled but still charges because the flag wasn't toggled. Pro tip: After cancelling, log back into your account 24 hours later and verify that auto-renewal is marked "OFF" and your subscription status shows "Active until [date]" rather than "Renews on [date]."
Cancellation checklist and timeline

Final steps: staying protected and exploring alternatives
Cancelling Sundance Now doesn't mean you're out of options for independent film streaming. Stopee empowers you to make informed choices about every subscription you keep.
After you cancel: what to do next
Once your cancellation is confirmed and your access ends, spend time on platforms like MUBI, BritBox, or local alternatives to compare content libraries and pricing. Set phone reminders for any other subscriptions you're thinking of cancelling so you don't lose track of them. If Sundance Now had features you loved (such as curated collections or offline downloads), identify which rival service offers the closest match.
Protecting yourself from future unwanted charges
Create a simple spreadsheet tracking every subscription you hold, its cost, renewal date, and cancellation method. Update it quarterly. Review your bank and credit card statements monthly to spot unexpected charges before they snowball. Most disputes become easier to resolve within 30 days of the charge, so act quickly if you spot something wrong.
Stopee has helped thousands of consumers cancel Sundance Now, dispute erroneous charges, and reclaim control over their streaming budgets. Whether you're cancelling to save money, consolidate services, or switch providers, our guides and resources support you every step of the way.

Contact and support
If Sundance Now refuses your cancellation request or continues charging after you've cancelled, escalate your complaint to the Consumers Association of Singapore (CASE) at case.org.sg or call 1800-6221 800. Provide your cancellation confirmation email, bank statements showing unauthorised charges, and a written account of your attempts to resolve the issue.
