We cancel each service as soon as we subscribe (easy through Apple subscriptions.
Most of the time we don’t even realise the month has passed and the service has cancelled until we want to watch something on the service, then it takes 15 seconds to resubscribe.
- macintux 3y agoApple has changed the game in so many ways. This is definitely one of them.
- sparky_z 3y agoWere any of the services hard to cancel before Apple? I didn't think so. Maybe Amazon Prime (which is more than just a streaming service). For the rest, I don't recall any dark patterns or required phone calls to some sort of "retention specialist". Just go to the website and click cancel. If anything, it was Netflix that led the way on this, and set the example that the others followed. Am I missing something?
