You can cancel online, just send an email. Comparing this to Comcast's service is hyperbole.


So can you cancel without being hassled excessively or not? The founder of the business just stated right up the thread there that there's no self-service cancellation and they always exchange a few e-mails with someone who is cancelling.

Personally, I am usually happy to give feedback to fellow business folks, and I wouldn't be offended if someone politely asked for it from a service I was cancelling. However, if a single reasonable action to cancel and no further contact resulted in my card being charged because I didn't play along, that service should not expect a happy outcome.


We don't hassle. You send an email saying "Hey, I want to cancel!"

We respond with: "Bummer to hear, but happy to take care of that for you. Anything we could have done better?"

Then that usually sparks a longer conversation, but if we don't hear back within 24-48 hours, we just go ahead with the cancellation.

We're also very generous with refunds and certainly wouldn't keep someone's money just because we delayed the cancellation a day or two. That's just silly.


That all seems pretty reasonable to me, then.
