AT&T Prepaid is a wireless service that allows you to pay upfront for your service charges. There are no annual contracts or credit checks, easy activation, and you already know your monthly charges.
However, a time may come when you will no longer need the AT&T Prepaid subscription and would like to cancel the service on your account.
You must know how to do this, especially when AutoPay is enabled on your AT&T account. You’ll also need this if you have a valid funding source linked to your account to prevent unexpected debits.
Although AT&T states that your prepaid subscription automatically gets canceled after 60 days if your balance runs out, it’s better to be sure than live in regret.

- Login to your AT&T account
