I had a similar experience with the Economist a few years ago. Signed up for a trial (something like $5 for 13 weeks?) and decided to cancel at the end of the trial.
It took me 10 minutes on the phone to cancel, and then I received 3 phone calls later that day from the Economist offering me special offers to re-subscribe. I have to admit that I may have answered rather rudely when the third caller asked how I was doing...
- gumby 6y agoAt least for the economist this was not the case last month. I canceled my sub and got a new one for my kid who wants the paper copy (this way I got the intro deal for students) and it was painless. Plus I can still log in online. So maybe enough people complained, or someone in the subscription department ran across a conscience and tried it on for size.
- sundvor 6y agoThis is a bit off topic, but if you ever want a cheaper Adobe subscription just go through the cancellation process and opt to discuss it. This was some time back and I've simply cancelled since then, but it was a good little thing to do back then.
