How to cancel Vix Premium and protect your refund rights
What is Vix Premium and why cancellation matters
Vix Premium is the paid tier operated by TelevisaUnivision, delivering Spanish-language content, live sports, telenovelas, and original series with minimal or no advertising. You can stream on smart TVs, phones, tablets, and other devices, with simultaneous multi-screen access depending on your plan. The service positions itself as a cost-effective alternative to major streaming platforms, targeting audiences who prioritize Spanish-language programming in the United States market.
You may decide to cancel for straightforward reasons: the monthly subscription no longer aligns with your budget, you have finished the content you subscribed to watch, technical issues like buffering degrade the viewing experience, or you have discovered overlapping subscriptions delivering similar shows. Occasionally a promotional introductory rate expires and the full price does not justify the value you receive. Regardless of your reason, Yafee ensures you understand your legal rights and the exact steps to cancel without friction.
Current Vix Premium pricing and plan structure
Vix offers three distinct tiers: a free ad-supported version, a paid tier with limited advertising, and a premium no-ad option. Below is the current pricing structure available when you log into your account:
| Plan |
Monthly cost |
Annual cost |
Key features |
| Vix Gratis (free) |
$0.00 |
N/A |
Ad-supported, limited content library |
| Vix Premium (with ads) |
$5.99 |
Not offered |
Full library access, limited ads, up to 2 devices |
| Vix Premium (no ads) |
$8.99 |
$59.99 |
Ad-free viewing, up to 4 devices, faster access to new releases |
If you pay monthly at $8.99, switching to the annual plan at $59.99 reduces your effective monthly cost to approximately $5 per month, saving you $47.89 annually. However, if you determine you will not use the service, full cancellation is the correct decision.
Evaluate downgrade before cancellation
Before proceeding with full cancellation, consider whether downgrading to the free tier or the limited-ad paid plan meets your needs. If you watch Vix only occasionally, downgrading to the free option costs nothing and preserves your account history and watch list. If you paid for an annual plan upfront and months remain, many subscription providers (Apple, Google, Roku) allow prorated refunds within 14 days of purchase under consumer protection guidelines.
Yafee recommends assessing three questions: How many hours did you watch last month? Do you plan to watch specific content in the next 30 days? Would switching to a lower-cost plan instead of canceling preserve your access if your viewing interests change? These answers clarify whether full cancellation or plan downgrade serves your interests.
Your legal position and consumer protections
Your right to cancel Vix Premium is protected under the Restore Online Shoppers Confidence Act (ROSCA), enacted as part of the Telemarketing Sales Rule by the Federal Trade Commission. ROSCA requires that subscription services provide you with a simple and straightforward cancellation mechanism that is equally easy to use as the original sign-up process.
Furthermore, if you subscribed through a third-party platform such as Apple, Google Play, or Roku, the Electronic Funds Transfer Act (EFTA) and regulations issued by your state's Attorney General office provide additional protections. You have the explicit right to cancel without penalty, and any refund due must be processed within 7 to 14 business days of cancellation confirmation, depending on your subscription provider and state law.
Your legal position: key protections you hold
Under ROSCA and state consumer protection statutes, you are entitled to the following:
- Cancel your subscription at any time without penalty, early termination fee, or hidden charges.
- Receive a cancellation confirmation immediately or within 24 hours of submitting your request.
- Obtain a prorated refund if you cancel mid-billing cycle (applicable to monthly subscriptions; annual plans may differ).
- Request cancellation via multiple channels: online account settings, email, phone, or written correspondence.
- Escalate unresolved complaints to the Federal Trade Commission or your state's Attorney General if TelevisaUnivision fails to honor your cancellation within 7 days.
If TelevisaUnivision or your subscription provider denies your cancellation request or continues charging you after you cancel, you may file a complaint with the Federal Trade Commission at reportfraud.ftc.gov or contact your state's Attorney General office for enforcement action.
Your cancellation process depends on where you subscribed: directly through Vix.com, or through a third-party service such as Apple, Google Play, Roku, or Amazon. The following sections provide exact step-by-step instructions for each pathway.
Cancel directly through vix.com
If you created your Vix account directly with the service and pay via credit card or debit card on their website, follow these steps to cancel:
- Visit www.vix.com and sign in to your account using your email address and password.
- If you have forgotten your password, click "Forgot password?" and follow the email recovery link sent to your inbox.
- Check your spam folder if you do not receive the recovery email within 5 minutes.
- Navigate to your account settings by clicking your profile icon, typically located in the top right corner of the screen.
- Select the menu option labeled "Account," "Settings," or "My Account."
- Locate the "Subscription" or "Billing" section within account settings.
- You should see your current plan (Vix Premium with ads or Vix Premium no ads) and your next billing date.
- Click the "Cancel subscription" or "Manage subscription" button.
- Vix may prompt you to confirm your cancellation and may offer a discount or plan downgrade as an alternative.
- Do not accept alternative offers unless you genuinely wish to remain subscribed at a lower cost.
- Confirm your cancellation by clicking "Yes, cancel my subscription" or the equivalent confirmation button.
- Your account will cease automatic billing immediately or at the end of your current billing cycle, depending on your subscription terms.
- Screenshot or save your cancellation confirmation message, which includes a confirmation number and cancellation date.
- Yafee strongly recommends retaining this documentation in case billing disputes arise.
Cancel through apple (App store or apple TV channels)
If you subscribed to Vix Premium through Apple's App Store or Apple TV Channels, you must cancel through your Apple account, not directly through Vix:
- Open the Apple TV app on your iPhone, iPad, Apple TV, or Mac.
- Alternatively, visit tv.apple.com on a web browser and sign in with your Apple ID.
- Navigate to your account by clicking your profile icon or initials in the top right corner.

Cancel through google play
If you subscribed via Google Play on an Android device or through play.google.com, cancel using these steps:
- Visit play.google.com on any web browser or open the Google Play Store app on your Android device.

Cancel through roku
If you subscribed to Vix Premium directly through a Roku device or Roku's website, follow these steps:
- Visit my.roku.com on any web browser and sign in with your Roku account credentials.
- Alternatively, navigate to Settings on your Roku device and select "My account" or "Manage account."
- Click "Manage subscriptions" or "Subscriptions" from your account dashboard.
- You will see a list of all active paid channels and subscriptions on your account.
- Find "Vix Premium" in the active subscriptions list and click or select it.
- Roku will display your current plan, billing date, and cancellation options.
- Click "Cancel subscription" or "Remove from account."
- Roku will prompt you to confirm cancellation and may offer a discount as an alternative.
- Confirm your cancellation by clicking the final confirmation button.
- Roku sends a confirmation email; retain this for your records.
- Verify that Vix Premium no longer appears in your active subscriptions.
- If billing continues after 7 days, contact Roku Support immediately and escalate to your state's Attorney General if unresolved.
Refund eligibility and timeline
Your refund eligibility depends on when you cancel relative to your billing cycle and which subscription method you used. Consequently, understanding refund terms is critical to avoiding financial loss.
Direct vix.com subscription refunds
If you subscribed directly through Vix.com, your refund rights are governed by Vix's published refund policy and state consumer protection law. Most streaming services, including Vix, do not offer refunds for used service; however, under ROSCA, you are entitled to a prorated refund if you cancel before your billing cycle renews.
For example, if your $8.99 monthly subscription renews on the 15th and you cancel on the 5th (10 days into your 30-day cycle), you may receive a prorated refund of approximately $3.00. The exact amount depends on Vix's refund policy as displayed during cancellation. Yafee recommends requesting a prorated refund explicitly in your cancellation confirmation or via email to [email protected] if the system does not calculate one automatically.
Third-party platform refunds (Apple, google, roku)
If you subscribed through Apple, Google Play, or Roku, each platform has its own refund window and policy:
| Platform |
Refund window |
Refund eligibility |
| Apple |
14 days from purchase |
Automatic refund if cancelled within 14 days; prorated refund thereafter |
| Google Play |
48 hours from purchase |
Automatic refund if cancelled within 48 hours; prorated refund thereafter |
| Roku |
7 days from purchase |
Automatic refund if cancelled within 7 days; prorated refund thereafter |
If you cancel outside these windows, you are entitled to a prorated refund if your billing cycle has not yet renewed. For example, if you subscribe on the 1st of the month and cancel on the 20th, you should receive a refund covering the unused portion (10 days). Contact the platform's support team if you do not receive your refund within 14 business days of cancellation confirmation.
What happens after you cancel
Canceling Vix Premium is straightforward, and your account access ceases on a predictable schedule. Nevertheless, several administrative details require your attention to ensure a clean exit.
Access retention and account deletion
Once you cancel, your access to Vix Premium content expires at the end of your current billing cycle. If you subscribed monthly on the 15th and cancel on the 5th, you retain full access until the 15th of the following month. After that date, your account reverts to the free Vix Gratis tier automatically.
Your account login credentials and watch history remain in Vix's database unless you request explicit account deletion. If you wish to delete your account entirely (removing all personal data, watch history, and saved preferences), contact Vix's Privacy Department at the mailing address provided in the Contact Information section below. You have the legal right to data deletion under the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA) if you reside in California, or under comparable state privacy laws if you live elsewhere.
Verify that billing has stopped
After cancellation, monitor your credit card or bank statement for 30 days to confirm that no further charges appear. If Vix or your subscription provider charges you after your cancellation date, contact them immediately with your cancellation confirmation number. Yafee recommends saving your cancellation confirmation email and screenshots of your account settings showing "Subscription cancelled" or equivalent language.
If the unauthorized charge is not reversed within 7 business days, file a dispute with your bank or credit card issuer under EFTA protections. Additionally, file a complaint with the Federal Trade Commission at reportfraud.ftc.gov, providing your cancellation confirmation, the date of the unauthorized charge, and all correspondence with Vix or the subscription provider.
Common cancellation mistakes to avoid
Canceling Vix Premium is designed to be simple, yet many consumers encounter avoidable complications. Yafee has identified the most common missteps so you can sidestep them entirely.
Mistake one: canceling through the wrong platform
If you subscribed through Apple, Google Play, or Roku, you must cancel through that same platform, not directly through Vix.com. Canceling through Vix.com while your subscription is managed by Apple will not terminate your subscription, and Apple will continue billing you. Conversely, if you subscribed directly through Vix.com, canceling through a third-party app will have no effect on your Vix account.
Before canceling, log into your credit card or bank account and verify which company (Vix Premium, Apple, Google, or Roku) appears on your billing statement. This company is your subscription provider, and this is where you must cancel.
Mistake two: failing to retain cancellation confirmation
Many cancellations are processed smoothly, but if a dispute arises, your only proof of cancellation is your confirmation number and email. If you delete cancellation emails or do not screenshot your account page showing "Subscription cancelled," you will have no evidence when disputing unauthorized charges.
Immediately after cancellation, take screenshots of your subscription page showing the cancellation status, forward your confirmation email to yourself from a personal archive account, and write down your cancellation confirmation number in a note file. Retain these for a minimum of 90 days.
Mistake three: confusing plan downgrade with cancellation
When you initiate cancellation, subscription services often offer a discounted plan or temporary offer to retain your subscription. If you accidentally click "Downgrade to free" or "Accept promotional offer," you have not canceled; you have modified your plan. You must actively confirm cancellation, not plan modification.
Before clicking any confirmation button, read the prompt carefully. It should state "Cancel subscription" or "Remove subscription," not "Downgrade" or "Switch plans."
Mistake four: canceling mid-annual commitment without understanding refund terms
If you paid for a full year of Vix Premium upfront (typically $59.99), canceling mid-year may not entitle you to a refund unless you cancel within your platform's refund window (14 days for Apple, 48 hours for Google, 7 days for Roku). After the window closes, you forfeit the unused portion unless state law mandates a prorated refund.
Before purchasing an annual plan, review the refund terms. If you are uncertain about long-term commitment, select the monthly option at $8.99 per month until you confirm the service meets your needs for a full year.
