Recently, I bought a 12 months subscription for PS Plus and uploaded some game saves to the cloud. Then, I canceled my subscription and requested a refund which was approved and bought a 3 months subscription instead. From what I read, if a PS Plus subscription expires, the game saves will stay on the cloud for six months.
As I have no backup of the game saves on my local drive(PS4), I was wondering if my game saves on the cloud be deleted if I cancel the subscription as opposed to it being expired?
