There is a myth that somewhere in the interface menus of your Xbox is a "unsubscribe" option. But M$ was clever in hiding it. So your only other option is to DUM DUM DUMMMM! Call the Xbox hotline, fight with representatives and cancel through them.

Yeah, you're right you have to call the xbox live hotline. But I hate having to go through a hotline to cancel stuff. Last year I was staying at a relative's house for about 3 months and I had my pc with me and used one of those free aol disks to get internet connection. Well I tried canceling it before they would start charging, and the phone bill wasn't under my name but my relative's. I called once to cancel and the guy said he would give me 2 free months if I would stay, but I told him no and he said ok, and they'll send me a letter confirming the cancel. Well I got a letter but it wasn't for the cancle but instead the jackass gave me the 2 free months. So I call again and some lady answers. I tell here the situation and then SHE's trying to get me to stay. She says stuff like "Well we can offer you 3 months of free service if you stay with us". I had to cus her out then because I was tired fo them trying to get me to keep their service. Besides, I was moving out and there would be no point in my relative getting charged for internet they can't use. So finally she said she would cancel it and said As of [insert date] your service will be terminated, blah blah blah. And I made sure, so I asked "Will there be any charges of any kind after this call" and she said no. I tell you it's a bitch to cancel over the phone.

btw vegetto you may want to take a look at this page

I know mine ends sometime in Dec or January. I was going to write a letter to them stating EXPLICITLY that once my 1 year ends, I do not want my card charged for use of XBox Live. I want to terminate my subcription. I do not want a penny charged to my cards. If XBox Live continues to operate on my XBox after my 1 year from my startupdate(Dec or Jan 05), I will assume that there was an error on your part and will fight any charges upon my card for your errors.
