This is great. We're actually considering building a product like this at OneText.
1. You get a virtual card number to use for subscriptions
2. We detect recurring charges
3. We send you a text 24h before any refills
4. If you reply 'skip' we block the next charge, if you reply 'cancel' we cancel the card entirely
- theturtletalks 4y agoI’ve heard that even if the charge doesn’t go through, some companies don’t cancel your plan. They keep the plan active with an outstanding balance that keeps growing.
- Sohcahtoa82 4y agoYup. I've heard of gyms trying to send people through hoops to cancel, so they just call their bank and tell them to block charges in the future from the gym. So the gym just lets them collect a balance and then threatens to send the bill to collections if it's unpaid.
