How to Cancel Private Internet Access
Skycopia rates Private Internet Access as easy to cancel, and you can do it yourself online.
Cancelling is the easy part — making it stick is the hard part. Skycopia watches the charge from both sides: a nudge before the renewal date so you don't miss your window, and an alert if Private Internet Access bills you again after you've cancelled. It reads your bank data and keeps you on top of your cancellations and subscriptions.

Cancellation steps

Under Next Billing, select "Turn off auto-renewal" and confirm — bought through the App Store or Google Play instead? Cancel there, PIA can't do it for you
Or have Sky walk you through it one step at a time, with the right page open beside this one — then watch your bank data to confirm the charge actually stopped.
Charged again after cancelling? Dispute it with your card issuer — the steps above are your proof you cancelled, and the date you did it. Skycopia flags a zombie rebill the moment it lands, so you catch it inside the dispute window instead of six months later.
