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

    Not when you have to put a credit card number on file. In my experience those trials almost always stay active until time has expired.

    This whole thread is full of Apple apologists.

      Agree.

      I generally enjoy Apple’s products, I’m very happy with the stuff I have at least. Corporations and companies aren’t friends, and they don’t deserve to be treated as such just because they make a product you enjoy.

      This kind of practise is bullshit through and through. Hell I think signing me up for a subscription as part of having a free trial is BS. I should be able to have a free trial for however long that trial period is, and then get to decide whether or not I want a full subscription. Rescinding the trial because I don’t want to subscribe is garbage.
