Hi, I am sorry that you are having a problem with your rental. When you rent a movie on the receiver you are not able to delete it unless you watch the show in it's entirety. All the rentals ahve a time limit and will auto delete when the rental expires. If you have any additional questions or conerns, please email me directly. Thank you!
