Cancel Starz Subscriptioin
I accidentally used the flex box to purchase a Starz subscription. I want to cancel that since I saw it come up at a $8.99 charge on my Xfinity internet bill. It's really frustrating because there is no way to manage/ do this on the xfinity portal, and the flex box doesn't show me subscribed to anything, so I can't do this anywhere. Xfinity, I don't care about reversing any charges/payments for using the Starz subscription. But you must create an intelligible way of canceling these subscriptions! We've had this for over a week, so the "give it time to show up on the record" excuse doesn't cut it.
PS. I wouldn't have ever chosen to use Xfinity if they weren't the only internet option in my area.

Hello!
You can cancel certain Internet Subscription Video On Demand channels by following the information in the link below:
Internet Subscription Video On Demand channels are individual On Demand networks that you can subscribe to in addition to your Xfinity TV service. However, these channels require both Xfinity X1 and Xfinity Internet services and are only delivered through your X1 TV Box. Note: Some channels are also available with Xfinity Flex.

That said, some channels or subscriptions do not currently have the option to cancel through the device. Any representative can assist with this, myself included--I'll submit feedback to have our FaQ page updated based on everyones' suggestions here.
@user_cbba59 if you could please send us a direct message here, we can start the process to remove the charges.
To send a direct message:

Agree- a real workaround to figure out- who has time- its a sly way to add on to the bill.

Had this same issue, and after about 30 min of searching for an online solution, or through the xfinity webpage, the best way is to just contact an agent through the app, or page. I could've easily saved myself about 20 min if there was any indication of that on the page; maybe update it so xfinity consumers know how to deal with the Starz subcription process?
The agents got me through the process in a fraction of the time I spent aimlessly trying to cancel the sub on my own.
