If your parent is still on your streaming account and treats it like a shared family photo album, ask them to sit with you while you hit cancel, because a 2 minute talk about $11.99 turned into a 3 hour lecture about loyalty. How do you all get parents off your subscriptions without it turning into a thing?
The move that worked for me was switching the account to my own card first and then just letting the old payment method expire on its own. I told my mom the card on file got replaced by the bank and the plan would keep working fine, which was true, and she never had to feel like she was being kicked off anything. No lecture, no talk about loyalty, just a quiet swap. Parents get weird about being cut off from stuff, but nobody argues with a bank sending them a new card.
