The Golden Rule: Cancel the UPI Mandate

CRITICAL: The #1 reason you are still being charged is the UPI AutoPay mandate. Cancelling inside the JioSaavn app often does NOT stop the payment. You MUST go into your payment app (Google Pay, PhonePe, Paytm) and cancel the recurring mandate to 'Saavn Media Limited' to stop the charges for good.

Secondary Step: Cancel in the App/App Store

After you have killed the autopay mandate, you should also cancel the subscription within the original platform to be safe.

In the JioSaavn App / Website

  1. 1. Open JioSaavn and go to 'Settings'.
  2. 2. Navigate to 'Manage Plan' > 'Change Plan'.
  3. 3. Select the 'No Plan/Free Plan' and confirm.

In the Google Play Store

  1. 1. Open the Play Store & tap your profile icon.
  2. 2. Go to 'Payments & subscriptions' > 'Subscriptions'.
  3. 3. Find JioSaavn and tap 'Cancel subscription'.

In the Apple App Store

  1. 1. Open iPhone 'Settings' & tap your Apple ID.
  2. 2. Tap 'Subscriptions'.
  3. 3. Find JioSaavn and tap 'Cancel Subscription'.

Smart Music Strategies

1

The "Accidental Renewal" Refund Gambit

JioSaavn's policy is strictly no-refunds. Your only small chance is to contact support immediately after a charge, state it was an "accidental renewal," and request a refund. If they refuse, dispute the charge with your bank.

2

The "YouTube Premium" Value Hack

If you're looking for a better deal, consider YouTube Premium. It removes all ads from YouTube videos AND includes a full YouTube Music Premium subscription for free. It's two premium services for the price of one.

Deactivate Your JioTune Without Cancelling

If you only want to stop your caller tune, you don't need to cancel your Pro subscription. The fastest way is to send an SMS with the word 'STOP' to the number 56789 from your Jio number.

Pre-Cancellation Safety Checklist

Auto-Renewed Subscriptions Are Strictly Non-Refundable

VERY IMPORTANT: JioSaavn's official policy is that they do not offer refunds. You must cancel at least 24 hours before the renewal date to avoid being charged.

Deleting the App Does NOT Cancel the Subscription

Uninstalling the JioSaavn app will NOT cancel your Pro subscription. The billing agreement is with the payment platform (Apple, Google, or your UPI bank) and must be cancelled there.

Got Questions? We've Got Answers.

I cancelled in the app but was still charged. Why?

This is the most common problem. It's because you have a UPI AutoPay mandate active in Google Pay or PhonePe. Cancelling in the JioSaavn app often does NOT cancel the payment mandate. You MUST follow the steps in this guide to stop the payments at the source.

Can I get a refund if I forgot to cancel JioSaavn Pro?

It is highly unlikely. JioSaavn's official policy is that subscriptions are non-refundable. Your only small chance is to contact support immediately after the charge and claim it was an 'accidental renewal'.

How do I deactivate my JioTune (caller tune)?

You do not need to cancel your Pro subscription for this. The fastest way is to send an SMS with the word 'STOP' to the number 56789 from your Jio number.

What happens to my playlists and downloaded songs after I cancel?

Your playlists and saved music will remain in your account. However, you will lose access to any songs you have downloaded for offline listening, as this is a Pro-only feature.
