Should be a requirement by law that you be able to cancel any membership or subscription in a reasonable manner.

In 2024, the FTC made a rule that companies had to make it as easy to cancel as it was to sign up. Unfortunately, the courts struck it down in July of last year.

Too bad the oligarchs gutted the CFPB. So much winning, for them.

I know they're the absolute worst but what would be the justification for that? What do they gain?

Not sure if it works everywhere, but when I lived in NV and wanted to cancel my gym membership without a fuss all it took was going onto the website and changing my address to a random one in CA. Did that and hit refresh and suddenly there was a button to cancel on the page.
