ANDROID phone owners might be unwittingly paying out money every single month without realising.
These so-called "vampire bills" are easy to find and squash, if you want to.
If you're trying to save a bit of cash, it's definitely worth checking.
We're talking about subscriptions that may be quietly siphoning cash from your bank.
Maybe you didn't realise you still had the app subscription running.

Or maybe a rogue app tricked you into signing up for something – and now you're being quietly charged.
How to find Android app subscriptions
First, unlock your Android phone and then launch the Google Play store.
Then tap Account, then go to the Payment & Subscriptions section.
You can now tap on any subscription you want to end, and choose Cancel Subscription.
The Google Play store will then guide you through the cancellation process.
"Subscriptions on Google Play are renewed automatically unless you unsubscribe," Google explained.
"When you cancel a subscription, you’ll still be able to use your subscription for the time that you’ve already paid."
That means you won't lose subscribed time you've paid for.
For instance, buy a 12-month subscription on January 1 and then cancelling on July 1 would allow you to keep what you've paid for until December 31.
This will also cancel the auto-renew.

So you won't start paying again on January 1 if you've already cancelled.
However, after the subscription expiry, you will (unsurprisingly) lose access to the paid-for perks.
Make sure you check your subscriptions regularly to ensure you're not paying out when you shouldn't be.
