Cancellation fee

[siriainnsdirl]

Been subscribing since July 2020. I now want to cancel my plan, and I can't without paying a ridiculus fee. My one year subscription should be over by now? I also dislike the fact that I cannot talk to an actual person..

in my area I can only reach a virtual assistant.

Annual means 12 months of service.   To avoid early cancellation fees, wait until your 12th month of service to cancel, before it auto renews for another year.  Or bite the bullet and pay a 50% penalty fee.  Your choice.

After having collected information about your troubles, the virtual assistant should forward you to an agent. Depending on the language, the chat may be open only during office hours. The English-speaking chat is open 7/7 and 24/24.
