Why does my statement say A+E GLOBAL MEDIA?

A+E Networks operates several distinct streaming platforms, including HISTORY Vault, Lifetime Movie Club, and A&E Crime Central. Instead of billing under the specific app name, they often bill under their corporate parent entity, 'A+E GLOBAL MEDIA' or 'AEGM'.

Depending on how you subscribed, this might also show up as 'Roku for AEGM' or 'Apple for A+E'. If you are paying $4.99/month or $49.99/year, it perfectly matches the standard pricing for these niche streaming services.

I canceled but I'm still getting charged

A common issue occurs when users subscribe through a third-party partner (like The Roku Channel, Amazon Prime Video Channels, or Apple App Store). Deleting the app or trying to cancel through the HISTORY Vault website will not work if the subscription is managed by Apple, Roku, or Amazon. You must cancel the subscription directly in the billing dashboard of the third party.
