It's far from ideal, but I like the reset provided by card expiration. Better would be if the issuer provided a web interface to turn off any subscriptions at will. Asking the merchant to do it is usually very annoying and time consuming by design, so sometimes it just doesn't get done.
- pbreit 8y agoNo guarantee that your card issuer will decline a transaction on an expired card. Plus, that may not actually cancel the subscription and you could continue building a debt. Just cancel the sub.
- literallycancer 8y agoI think he's talking about services that intentionally make it hard or impossible to cancel.
- lordlimecat 8y agoThis is overblown. Worst case, you can send a certified letter for most things. For gyms, it's pretty well known you either don't agree to said contract to begin with, or suck it up and show up in person if you did. And gyms have a valid contract and will likely continue accruing debt on your account which they could pursue if they wanted to.
