You might have been missing a neat PlayStation trick without realising it.

At this juncture, it’s important to draw your attention to another important piece of information.
As the OP makes quite clear in an edit to their initial post, this trick doesn’t always seem to work.
They added, “Edit: Some have mentioned that after you click ‘Cancel’, wait about a day or so. Apparently, it takes some time and it showed up after for some.”

Just like the OP, we can’t confirm that this secret hack will work every time, however, for some users it’s scored them a cheaper subscription as promised.
“Worked for me, now I see the $119.99 before I was seeing $159.99,” commented Section_80.
“It works but I had to wait,” said Tadpole-Jackson. “It took about a day for it to update and give me the option for a discount on my current tier after cancelling.”
