+1 on this. Had a similar bad experience as a customer of Aw.Rem. After a few months of charging $10/month, Zach increased the price to $40 and cut the calls to my girlfriend roughly twice a week -- instead of every day.
That's fair enough. I didn't mind all that much.
But then a few month later the calls stopped alltogether, then Zach went in and cancelled the $10 subscription manually on Paypal.
I didn't complain about the frequency of calls, but sent an email asking about the cancellation. That went unanswered. Sorry but this guy doesn't seem responsible.
And one more insight from this interview:

'...I made all the phone calls while I was high...'
- ZachS 14y agoWait. What? I'm gonna need some deets here. Please provide more context to the story of your paying strangers to call up your girlfriend every day. -What did you have them say? -Did she find your delegation of affection to a paid third party extremely bizarre and off-putting? -What was her reaction to only receiving encouraging calls from strangers twice a week rather than every day?
- achille2 14y agoAwesomeness Reminders was a service introduced at $10/month that would call you (or someone else) once a day to say "You're Awesome" -- as a way to cheer you up. I opted to have this call go to my girlfriend. Didn't tell her anything. She's a very girly girl, and loves when anyone says "Your shoes look pretty etc". She thought it was quirky, funny, but then liked getting the awesome calls. After a while, the daily calls became biweekly calls.
