i miss the days when cancelling a subscription would just stop it charging you but you keep the service until you would have to pay
I miss when Amazon prime would refund you the remainder of the month when you cancelled… I have no interest in being a prime member and actively avoid buying anything from Amazon. But sometimes I need something I can’t find locally ASAP and giving them a quarter or two to have prime for a day was a solid option.
Yeah doing that sounds like a stupid business practice exactly because of what you’ve described
Paying $15 a month for “free” shipping which is also included in the price point of the products sounds like a stupid practice too. Lots of people doing it though.
I think this is apple being particularly shitty because most services don’t do that.
Enshitification
That is how they work though 🙄
I just canceled my Apple TV and I have access to it until the next billing cycle starts. But you have to actually have a billing cycle in order to have service up until the next one…
Who would have thought that cancelling something cancels it? Incredible find, mate.
the idea was to sign up for the free trial, then cancel right away so that you don’t forget to cancel at the end of the trial. previously, in most cases, the trial would run it’s course and you could access it for the duration. Since companies rely on people forgetting to cancel (it’s the only reason anyone even has an apple TV subcription), they’re trying to make this simple life hack more difficult.
So many idiots use apple.
I cancelled a service I was getting for free, and they stopped providing the service 😭
Yeah literally what is this post lol.
