Starz Return Policy
Every return window, fee, and holiday extension for Starz — pulled from the retailer's own policy page and linked below so you can confirm it yourself.
Starz won't prorate or refund a cancelled subscription, so cancel before your renewal date hits, not after - and don't count on a trial-ending reminder, since they explicitly say they're not obligated to send one.

About Starz
Prestige dramas and a deep back catalog of movies are Starz's bread and butter - it's the premium cable channel turned standalone streaming app, known for shows built around strong female leads and genre fare it doesn't shy away from getting graphic with.
You can add it as its own app or bundle it through Amazon Prime Video channels, which changes how you'd even go about cancelling. The one thing to know before starting a free trial: there's no refund once you're charged, and Starz doesn't promise to remind you before the trial converts to paid, so mark your calendar. Fans of prestige TV who also want a deep movie library lean toward this over pricier premium bundles.
