I need to cancel iTunes Match so I can switch country / region

I have moved from the UK to Australia.  I need to cancel my iTunes Match in order to change country on the iTunes store.  I have 'turned off auto-renew' but this does not cancel my subscription, which is not due to expire for some time. 
I no longer have any UK payment methods, so I cannot purchase anything from iTunes until I switch region, allowing me to switch payment methods.  I cannot do this until iTunes match is cancelled.
I simply want my iTunes Match cancelled. I don't want to call Apple.  I just want it cancelled.  Why is it so impossibly difficult to do this?

    I keeps telling me that I need to cancel iTunes Match before I can change my credit card details? How do I do that?

    You can't do it yourself. If the unspent balance is at least as much as the value of the gift card, ask the iTunes Store staff to put the balance back onto the card. If not, it's not possible at all.

    I have this same problem and am at my wits end
    ITUNES MATCH automatically renewed so I'm screwed until October 2013.
    That means, I ( and you) cant update credit card details with billings address etc
    no more apps
    no more itunes to purchase.

    When you try to change your county, you might see one of these messages:
    You have an active iTunes Match subscription; you must cancel it before you can change stores.
    You have at least one incomplete pass. Passes must be complete before you can change stores.
    You have rentals that have not expired; they must expire before you can change stores.
    You have a store credit balance; you must spend your balance before you can change stores.
    You have one or more pending store credit refunds. You must wait a few hours for these to complete before you can change stores.
    You are part of a family. You must leave the family before you change stores.

    To change a secondary account you have to delete/sign out of both accounts.   After doing so, you can sign back in with the secondary account ID in System Preferences>iCloud and it will become the primary account.  To delete an account from System Preferences>Internet Accounts, select it on the left sidebar, then click the "-" icon at the bottom to delete it.

    Brian,
    Again, not accurate. When Match is "turned off" all of the Matched song instances are still shown in the Ibrary and all devices still stream - so, if you have your songs also stored on your local drive (which I choose to as one does not always have access to WiFi and I use the local instances of the songs for some music production/DJing), iTunes shows each song twice.  This is cumbersome if you simply want to play an album - you have to hear each song twice. There is no reason technologically they could not simply show the metadata for a song only once and simply hit the cloud object store when it it is not found as a local disk target. This would solve some of the issues and it is pretty much how any content delivery network (CDN) works - and this is how my local Genius Bar assured me it would work before I bought the service. I found they know little about Match.
    Other issues: I believe the "exclusive" Cloud Playtlist logic still stands - iTunes protests if you add a non-Matched song to a Playlist (as it assumes you want all Playlists to be cloudy). Also, the APLCARE person and I  could not figure out what "Removed" (under Cloud Status) means despite looking up several explanations on the Web. And, we found songs that were only in the cloud that should have also been on my local drive as I never deleted them. That said, it is also a pain to fully delete a song (local + the cloud). Plus, the logic in the Purchased section around what constitutes "Not On Computer" did not hold up. They have lots of logical challenges with thier workflow.
    Regardingyour suggestion, there is no way to "not use" Match. Only when one is disconnected from the iTunes store does Match seem to go away completely.The only thing you can turn off is the song syncing/matching/uploading. This amounts only to turning off a sub-process not the service.
    Match is likely fine for most who do not want to have any copy of the songs locally and are fine having access to their music only when connected via WiFi. I wanted more ubiquitous access to my collection from my iPad and my iPhone but needed to keep my songs local to my MBP too. This is not the proper use case as I have learned.
    Of course I won't renew, but I should be able to cancel a service that I am dissatisfied with.

  • Can I cancel Itunes Match Subscription?

    Hello,
    While living in the UK during my 2 year visa, I downloaded Itunes Match.  I have now returned home to Canada.  I need now to change my billing information and my country/region in order to download any new music or apps. 
    In the Itunes Store under Account information i am given the option to change my country or region , when doing so I get this message " You have an active Itunes Match subscription; you must cancel it before you change stores."
    I have the option to -do not renew-, but no where can I find to "cancel subscription" . Please help, I would like to use the App and Itunes store again. What do I need to do?

    I want  to cancel itunes match please somebody tell me how

    Generally you can't (it's non-refundable).  But some have gotten Apple to make exceptions to this, but you'd need to call them (800-692-7753 in the US).
    It really depends on who you get on the phone, and your argument as to why you want to cancel/get a refund.
