A FuboTV Inc charge on your credit card is a payment for Fubo, a live-TV streaming service for sports, news, and entertainment that still bills under its former “FuboTV” name. If you signed up for a plan or a free trial, the charge is your subscription fee plus regional fees and taxes. If you didn’t sign up, it may be unauthorized, and Fubo has a specific process for reporting it before you dispute with your bank.
The descriptor on your statement usually reads FUBOTV.COM, FUBOTV INC, or FUBO TV, sometimes with a location tag. If you subscribed through Roku, Apple, Amazon, or Google Play, the charge posts under that platform’s name instead, which is why some people don’t recognize it at first.
Why the Amount Is Higher Than You Expected
Fubo’s advertised plan prices are only part of what hits your card. The current tiers are Sports + News at $55.99 per month, Pro at $73.99, Elite at $83.99, and Latino at $14.99. The first three each carry a discounted first-month price ($45.99, $48.99, and $53.99), and Latino runs $9.99 for the first two months.
Those intro discounts are the single biggest source of “why did my bill jump” confusion. You sign up at $48.99, then thirty days later see $73.99 post and assume something is wrong. Nothing is wrong. The promotional price only covers the first billing cycle.
On top of the base plan, Fubo adds a Regional Sports Fee tied to your location, which can reach $16.99 per month depending on how many local sports networks are available where you live. Roku subscribers pay a flat $16.00 regardless of location.1Fubo Help Center. What Is the Regional Sports Fee State and local sales taxes on digital subscriptions apply in many places, so the total almost always exceeds the sticker price. Add-ons like Sports Plus at $6.99 per month push it further.2Fubo. Compare Fubo Plans A Pro subscriber with add-ons and a full regional fee can easily see a monthly total above $100.
Fubo bills in advance on a recurring cycle tied to your original sign-up date or the date your trial converted. Each charge covers the upcoming period, not the one that just ended.3Fubo Help Center. Why Am I Still Being Charged After Canceling My Fubo Account
The Charge Came Right After a Free Trial
Fubo’s free trials are short. Sports + News, Pro, and Elite give you one day. The Latino plan gives you five.4Fubo. Fubo – Watch Live Sports and TV Without Cable TV If you don’t cancel before the window closes, the trial converts automatically and your card is charged the first-month price. People who sign up to watch a single game routinely forget to cancel before the next day, and by the time they notice, the charge has posted.
Fubo does not refund prepaid or partial months, so a post-trial charge is almost certainly going to stick.3Fubo Help Center. Why Am I Still Being Charged After Canceling My Fubo Account
You Don’t Recognize the Charge at All
If you never signed up for Fubo, the charge could be from someone else in your household, a saved card on a shared device, or compromised card information. Before you call your bank, contact Fubo directly through their Virtual Assistant chat. Going through Fubo first is faster than a chargeback and avoids the complications that come with a formal dispute.
Have these ready before you start:
- The exact date and dollar amount of each charge you’re questioning
- The last four digits and expiration date of the card that was charged
- Any email address that might be tied to a Fubo account, if you have a guess
Fubo’s support team uses this to locate the account behind the charge and determine whether it was authorized.5Fubo Help Center. How Do I Report an Unauthorized Charge From Fubo on My Credit/Debit Card If Fubo can’t resolve it, your bank’s dispute process is still available.
How to Cancel Fubo So the Charges Stop
You cancel through whichever platform you originally signed up on. If you subscribed on Fubo’s website, cancel there. If you subscribed through a device platform, Fubo’s own cancellation page won’t work for your account.
Directly Through Fubo
Sign in at fubo.tv, click the settings icon in the top-right, and choose My Account. Select Subscription, scroll to the bottom, and click Cancel.6Fubo Help Center. How Do I Cancel My Fubo Subscription The system asks why you’re leaving, then confirms. You’ll get an email confirmation. Save it.
Through Roku
Sign in at my.roku.com, open your subscriptions, click Unsubscribe next to Fubo, and confirm. You can also do it on the device: highlight the Fubo app, press the Star button, choose Manage Subscription, then Cancel Subscription.7Fubo Help Centre. How Do I Cancel My Fubo Subscription
Through Apple or Google Play
On iPhone or iPad, open Settings, tap your name, select Subscriptions, find Fubo, and tap Cancel Subscription. On Google Play, go to play.google.com/store/account, open My Subscriptions, select Fubo, click Manage, then Cancel Subscription. The confirmation comes from Apple or Google rather than from Fubo.
What Happens After Cancellation
If you cancel a paid subscription, you keep access through the end of the billing period you’ve already paid for, and no new charges should post after that date. Canceling a free trial ends access immediately, and Fubo won’t grant a second free trial on the same account.6Fubo Help Center. How Do I Cancel My Fubo Subscription
Fubo’s policy is no refunds for prepaid or partial months.3Fubo Help Center. Why Am I Still Being Charged After Canceling My Fubo Account If you believe a charge was a billing error or unauthorized, raise it through the Virtual Assistant with the specifics.
A Charge Posted After You Already Canceled
The usual explanation is timing. Because Fubo bills in advance, a charge that posted on or right before your cancellation date pays for service you’re still entitled to use until the end of the cycle. That charge is legitimate.
A charge that posts well after cancellation typically means one of two things: the cancellation didn’t complete, or a second account exists under a different email or a different platform. Look for the cancellation confirmation email. If you don’t have one, the subscription is likely still active. Sign back in, run through the cancellation steps again, and contact support with the date and amount of the charge if it keeps happening.3Fubo Help Center.
