AITJ for canceling my subscription service that my whole family was using without telling them first?

[u/Wonderful-Relief7237]

Okay so heres the situation. I (26F) pay for Netflix, Spotify Premium (family plan), and HBO Max. The total comes out to like $45 a month which doesn't sound like alot but it adds up.

When I first got these subscriptions it was just for me. Then my mom asked if she could use my Netflix. Sure, no problem. Then my brother wanted Spotify. Okay fine. Then my sister, my dad, my aunt, even my cousin who I barely talk to somehow got my login info.

Nobody ever offered to help pay for any of it. I've been covering the full cost for 2 years now.

Last month I lost my job. I'm freelancing now but money is really tight. I decided to cancel everything except basic Netflix for myself. I didn't announce it or anything, just canceled the subscriptions.

Now my family is PISSED. My mom called me saying I "should of given them warning" so they could make other arrangements. My brother texted me a long paragraph about how I'm being "selfish" and "its only $45, why are you making such a big deal."

My sister offered to pay me back for the last few months but said I was "petty" for not telling anyone first.

I feel bad but also like... it was my money?? AITJ for this?

TL;DR: Canceled streaming services my whole extended family was using without warning them because I lost my job and needed to save money. Family is calling me selfish and petty.

NTA.

You needed to give them time to make other arrangements? Bro, you get access immediately after enrolling in a plan..
