i miss the days when cancelling a subscription would just stop it charging you but you keep the service until you would have to pay

    There would be no free trials offered if there was no chance of continuing as paid.

    Do you want to ban free trials to protect the forgetful?

      Yes, in a way. They are counting on the forgetful to an extent. There are actual apps to cancels services people have forgotten about but still pay for. Remove the requirement for cc info for a free trial. There are services out their that I might use but I’m not comfortable inserting cc info until I’m sure it is useful to me. If the product is as great as Apple (or whoever) say it is, people will subscribe.

      I want to be able to prevent it from accidentally continuing on to paid subscription like I could before by ending the subscription without losing the access as far as the trial period lasted.
