    This just reminded me I needed to cancel my plan, since I get a full subscription through work. Been subscribing for like 4 years, this is now year 5. So I called just now. He automatically threw me the ol' 2 months free bone and I explained it doesn't matter as its literally an unneeded expense at this point. He then tries to hit me with a $250.00 cancellation fee. I lost my shit, because when I called mid last year to cancel, thats what ended up keeping me on, that fee. I said at the time I might as well finish out 2017 then. So basically you have a 14 day window, (Jan 1 - Jan 14) to cancel or you're right back where you started, but they don't explicitly tell you that. In the end, he waved the fee, and I'm on only out the $50 for this month. I shoulda called on Jan 2; thats my bad. I told him don't worry, if I ever go freelance again, ill be back. Whats funny he seemed more emotional than me. Maybe call centers get reverse rewards for losing customers idk. Feels good to have an extra 50 a month I'll tell you what

    • I just stopped payment and let the thing work itself out. They never threatened a fee, I don't think they can!monospaced
    • They certainly called and emailed me dozens of times to figure out why they couldn't charge me. I just don't use it at home as much anymore.monospaced
    • I had this happen, but because you have a subscription with work they can't charge you the cancellation fee. It's in their TOS.zarkonite
