In this post, we’ll describe how the Disney Bundle works both when billed from Hulu and when subscribed from Disney+.

In addition, we’ll explain how to cancel Hulu in case you’re an existing subscriber and unwrap all possible scenarios. 

Let’s now learn more about how it’s done…

To cancel Hulu but keep Disney Plus you have to downgrade your plan from the bundle to a standalone Disney Plus subscription. In case you’ve acquired the Bundle from Hulu, you’ll need to cancel the entire plan and subscribe to Disney Plus separately.

About The Disney Bundle by Hulu

The Disney Bundle combines Disney+ and ESPN+ as well as the Hulu (no ads) or ad-supported subscription plan.

The price of the bundle is cheaper when compared to playing for ESPN and Disney Plus separately.

You will lose access to Disney+ and ESPN when the Hulu subscription expires.

In other words, your Hulu subscription will continue the automatic billing but to continue to watch Disney+ and ESPN you’ll need to re-subscribe or use the service separately.

It doesn't matter whether you’re billed from Hulu or Disney, you can revamp your subscriptions easily.

There is a way to cancel Hulu and continue using Disney Plus so let’s next learn how.

Can You Cancel Hulu Keep Disney Plus?

Users are able to detach from one service and bounce to another one at any given time.

When you’ve purchased the Disney Bundle you’ve acquired access to Disney Plus and Hulu but you won’t be able to remove the Hulu subscription, leaving you only with Disney Plus.

You need to cancel the bundle subscription!

To change the services you would need to cancel your Hulu subscription (Disney Bundle) or Disney + Hulu bundle and subscribe to Disney from the original source.

Your Disney+ subscription will be active as long as the Hulu subscription.

Once your Hulu subscription expires, you will no longer have access to ESPN or Disney.

You can proceed using standalone Hulu or subscribe to the service you want separately.

Tip: The bundle can be canceled from the respective source.

How To Cancel Hulu But Keep Disney Plus?

The way to cancel the Disney Bundle depends on whether you’re being billed by Hulu or Disney since you can receive the bundle from both instances.

Since you can upgrade your Disney Plus account to the Disney Bundle or you can get the bundle from Hulu there are two scenarios:

When you’re billed for the Disney Bundle by Disney:

1. Open the Disney+ browser version or download the app.
2. Log in to your Disney account.
3. On the Disney+ account page, cancel the bundle subscription.

When you’re billed for the Disney Bundle by Hulu:

1. Open the Hulu official website or download the app.
2. Log in to your Hulu account.
3. On the Hulu account page, cancel the Bundle subscription.

When the Disney Bundle is canceled you’ll still have access to the service while the initial subscription is active.

Upon expiration, you’ll need to subscribe to Disney+ separately by logging into your account from the official source.

Note: You can also subscribe to Hulu separately later, in case you change your mind.

Canceling Bundle For Existing Hulu Subscribers

In case you had a subscription for Hulu and you’ve upgraded to the Disney Bundle, to switch services entirely, you would need to cancel the Hulu subscription.

You will lose access to the bundle’s services as soon as your subscription expires and there is no way to keep Disney+.

Here are the steps to move from Hulu to Disney Plus:

1. Using the mobile Hulu app.
2. Log into your Hulu account.
3. Go to Profile.
4. Scroll down to find and select Cancel Your Hulu Subscription.
5. Confirm by pressing on Cancel.

This will cancel both your Hulu subscription and Disney+/ESPN bundle. You will still be able to access Disney Plus as long as the Hulu plan is still active.

Then you’ll need to separately subscribe to Disney+ from the official website source and not from Hulu.

Tip: You can still downgrade and keep your Hulu plan if you plan to resubscribe later.

Canceling Bundle For Existing Disney+ Subscribers

When you’re a Disney subscriber and you’ve upgraded to the Disney Bundle including Hulu, you can easily downgrade your plan to a Disney+ alone.

By downgrading the plan you’ll only have access to Disney Plus once your pre-paid bundle subscription ends.

Here’s how to cancel Hulu and keep Disney Plus:

1. On the official Disney Plus website.
2. Log in to your Disney+ account.
3. Select Account.
4. On the Subscription tab, deselect Disney Plus Bundle.
5. Choose a Disney Plus standalone plan.

That would be enough to downgrade your subscription to only include Disney Plus.

Keep in mind that you will still have access to Hulu as long as the Disney Bundle billing period lasts.

Note: The services from the Disney Bundle can be accessed from the respective applications or web sources.

Can You Get The Disney Bundle Without Hulu?

Unfortunately, there is no option to exclude Hulu entirely from the Disney Bundle.

After all this subscription package is meant to combine Hulu, Disney+, and ESPN for a better price.

You can lower the price by choosing the Hulu (ad-supported) plan.

Sadly, there is no free trial where you can test the plan and you’ll need to make a purchase.

Then, the content will be available by logging into the respective applications and signing into your accounts.

You will be prompted to create a missing Disney or Hulu account.

What Does The Disney Bundle Include?

With the Disney Bundle you’ll receive the following services:

• Hulu (no-ads) or ad-supported plan.
• Disney+ TV shows and movies
• ESPN live sports

Services cannot be excluded from the Disney Bundle and the price will change accordingly to the selected Hulu subscription.

You can pay $8 monthly or $80 yearly.

Will The Subscription Billing Continue?

In case you’re already a subscriber to one of the two instances, Hulu or Disney, and you cancel the Disney Bundle, your individual subscriptions will continue.

For example, in case you’ve already had a Hulu subscription when you acquired the Disney Bundle, after cancellation your standalone Hulu subscription would continue the billing.

However, in cases where you were not a subscriber when you acquired the Disney Bundle when you cancel the subscription no further charges will be made to your financial account.

Note: You can use the Disney+ subscription card to purchase the Disney Bundle.

Quick Recap:

Hence, you can cancel Hulu and keep Disney Plus by de-selecting the bundle if you’re billed from Disney+ or by canceling the entire subscription from Hulu. Then you’ll need to keep a Disney Plus standalone subscription account to enjoy the contents.

Final Thoughts:

That was everything about how to cancel Hulu but keep Disney Plus and we hope that you’re now aware of how to manage your subscriptions.

You can re-subscribe to the Disney Bundle at any given time or bounce from one service to another.
