Canceling in the wrong place
A frequent error is attempting to cancel in the Amazon app when the subscription was purchased through Google Play.
Always cancel via the store where you originally subscribed (Google Play, Amazon Appstore, or Amazon web).
Expecting pro-rata refunds
Many users expect a prorated refund after cancellation; Amazon normally does not refund the unused portion after the trial.

Not keeping records
