- Finally got hit with a charge for a trial I forgot I signed up for Tried to cancel online and there was no button anywhere just a chat bot that kept looping me back to the FAQ Called the number instead and sat on hold for 25 minutes Does anyone actually use something that tracks all your trials and reminds you before they convert Im tired of finding out after the charge already hit
- ngl got hit by one of those free trial things that turns into a real charge and the cancel button just does not exist anywhere on the site. spent like 40 min digging through settings before i gave up and called the bank instead. idk if theres something that flags this stuff before you sign up bc im tired of finding out the hard way
- This weekend I went through my bank statement line by line and found six subscriptions I forgot I even had. One is for an app I deleted from my phone more than one year ago. I feel stupid how much it added up in twelve months. Is there some app that scans the statements and flags this automatically?
- Counted 14 subscriptions on my bank statement. Forgot half of them existed. Need a way to find them all and kill the ones I don't use, before I cancel the wrong one by accident.
- Spent 45 minutes last night flipping between five streaming apps trying to find something to watch. Everything is either behind a paywall, split across platforms, or requires an add-on. Between Netflix, Hulu, Max, Peacock, and Apple TV I'm spending more than cable and still can't find anything. When does this consolidate?
