How does the Unlimited English Membership work?
As a paid member, you get access to ALL 1800+ Daily English and Cultural English. You can stream lessons on your computer or device, or download the lessons to your Android or iOS phone and tablet to listen to offline.
You can listen to as many lessons as you want to and as often as you would like. There are no limits! You can improve as quickly as you want to.
How long do I have access to the lessons?
You have access to ALL 1800+ lessons as long as you are paying your monthly membership fee ($29 each month*) or annual membership fee with a 2-month discount ($299/year).
Once your membership expires (ends), you will NOT be able to listen to your lessons, even if you downloaded them to our app. You must have an active, paid monthly membership to listen to lessons.
*If your country has a Value Added Tax (VAT), this will automatically be added to your fee.
How does a subscription work?
Unlimited English is a subscription, which means you are a charge each month until you cancel. Until you cancel, you will be charged $29 each month. But you can cancel anytime – it's easy! Just click on your account icon (top, right corner) and then click Manage Subscriptions. You can cancel your membership there. You will still have access to the lessons until the end of your current 30-day subscription period, or, for our yearly plan, until the end of your 12 months.
Note: If you are canceling and also want a refund, you must email us within 30 days of starting your membership. This is true for both regular and annual memberships. After 30 days, we cannot refund you. We do not automatically refund subscriptions when they are canceled; you must email us to request it.
How do I cancel my membership?
It's easy! Just click on your account icon (top, right corner) and then click Manage Subscriptions. You can cancel your membership there. You will still have access to the lessons until the end of your current 30-day subscription period, or 12 months if you are on a yearly plan. Yearly plans can be canceled anytime during the 12-month membership, but refunds can only be requested in the first 30 days.
Can I cancel my Unlimited English membership in the middle of the month?
You may cancel anytime and you will not be charged again for the next month (30 days). However, you will not receive a partial refund for the remainder of the current 30 days on your membership
What if I am unhappy with my Unlimited English Membership?
We would never want you to be unhappy! If you are not satisfied with your membership, please contact us in the first 30 days and we will give you a full refund. Yearly memberships must be canceled within 30 days. Any refunds must be requested within 30 days of first starting your membership.
I want fewer lessons each month. Do you have anything for me?
Yes! If you have an iPhone, iPad, or Mac, you can get our Apple Podcasts subscription, "Speak English with ESLPod." Our Apple Podcasts subscription gives you 12 lessons per month that can be downloaded directly to your Apple Podcasts app.
For both iOS and Android users, we have groups of lessons for purchase with our English Collections. See this Comparison Chart for all of our learning options.
