I have essentials cost is doubling can I switch to simple?

Hello there, Don.

I've got some ways to provide how you can switch to Simple Start.

Firstly, you have to downgrade your current plan. Ensure you aren't losing any essential features before you downgrade. Keep in mind that downgrading removes any discounts on your current plan.

Here's how:

1. Sign in to QuickBooks Online as a primary admin or company admin.
2. Look for the Gear icon, then Subscriptions and billing.
3. Make sure your payment info is up to date.
4. In the QuickBooks Online section, select Downgrade your plan.
5. Review the available plans and then select Choose plan.
6. Follow the onscreen steps to downgrade your plan.

Furthermore, I've added this article that you can browse if you want to cancel your subscription or trial: Cancel your QuickBooks Online subscription or trial.

Let me know if you still have further queries managing your QBO subscription. I'd just be around to assist you. Stay safe.
