What Does Pausing Your YouTube TV Subscription Mean?
If you try to cancel your YouTube TV subscription, you might be given the option to pause it instead. You may resume your subscription at any time in the next eight weeks, after which your account will be activated, and you will be charged.
During the pause period, you won’t be charged. Likewise, your current library recordings will be kept, but the pause will extend to the other accounts connected to your YouTube TV account. After you resume the service, which you can do at any time, you’ll have full access.
Contact Support Regarding YouTube TV Cancellation
Navigate to your YouTube TV account (via a computer, mobile app, or mobile browser) and select your profile icon in the top-right corner. Then go to Help.

You might want to contact your bank and stop any future payments to YouTube TV after cancelling. This way, you can ensure that you don’t get charged by mistake. If you happen to get billed even after canceling your subscription, contact both YouTube TV and your bank to dispute the charge.
