      Their subscription cancellation process is deliberately misleading. You need to press end subscription across multiple pages, and the button on the next pages require a scroll (at least on mobile).There is no purpose for this type of UX decision other than to continue charging people that arent giving their full attention to the cancellation process.While its not quuuite a scam, Im sure they make most of their money from people who dont realize theyre subscribed, while not being active users of the service.

      Hi *****, we apologize for any confusion here. To confirm, we will NEVER ask for your full card information when attempting to locate charges. The only information requested if the subscription is not found outright through the email address you've contacted us on is the last 4 digits of your payment method (suffix) and the expiration date of the card. This allows us to narrow down the results within our payment processor as we have over one million subscribers and have to search manually in order to locate charges.Upon review of your ticket, it appears that the specialist that you're working with has already responded and requested this information several times from you now but you are refusing to provide it. We cannot locate the source of any charges and stop them unless we have the requested information. Help us help you and please ensure you are responding accordingly and in a timely manner. We want to make sure this gets resolved quickly for you, so please continue to correspond with us in your existing support ticket via email moving forward. Thanks! -VG

      I've Emailed this company over 15 times, I canceled my subscription, and even canceled my account, and somehow they still keep taking money from me monthly. No one will return my emails at all. This is now Three months, I finally found out you can turn off payment from Apple under invoices but I was not aware of that for the first 3 months.

      Dont even remember signing up for the service (no email confirmation). Just got charged out of the blue, had to reset my password, because I didnt remember it. Which made so much sense after resetting my password. As the site doesnt allow passwords with consecutive letters or numbers or patterns. (123) or (aaa). So Im not shocked that others have had cancellation issues. They got me for $12, well played Audible wanna be. Cant imagine how much others have been charged due to not knowing they have the service or the inability to get into their accounts.

      Hello, we are sorry for any difficulty you have experienced as well as any confusion this has caused. After further review, we can confirm that a free trial was initiated on October 16, 2022. However, the subscription was not canceled prior to renewal, which is why you were billed. That said, we can confirm that the subscription is now canceled and you will no longer be billed going forward. We also went ahead and provided a refund for the invoice. If the charge is still pending, you will see the debit disappear from your bank statement. Otherwise, please allow 2-5 business days for the refund to process. If you have any further questions, please feel free to reach out to our support team here: https://scr.bi/assist. Thank you, have a great day! - mr
