Before canceling, it’s a good idea to ask yourself some questions so that you can make an informed decision.

Are there other competing services that offer more compelling packages?

What Happens Once You’ve Canceled Your Subscription?
So now that you know how to cancel your Sling TV subscription—what happens once you’ve done it?
The main difference between canceling your Sling TV subscription and other streaming services is that Sling TV won’t charge you any penalties for canceling. You will, however, lose access to any content you previously watched, unless it requires a separate purchase.
When you cancel, you’ll be asked if you’d like to keep your DVR recordings. If you decide to keep them, they will be accessible until the end of the grace period.The grace period gives you time to watch recorded shows with no additional charges. After the grace period ends (typically one billing cycle), any recordings that are still in your account will automatically be deleted.
You can also choose to keep your account active during the grace period after cancelation. This allows you to watch the most recently aired episodes of shows even though the service has been canceled. However, this feature may be subject to additional fees and can only be used for a limited amount of time.
Keep in mind that once your subscription is officially canceled from Sling TV, if you would like to reactivate it later on there will be an additional fee added depending on the service plan and availability at the time of reactivation.
