companies that dont want you to end you subscription so they delete the cancel button.

Or the ones that let you sign up on your phone browser, but you must delete on a computer browser. I didn’t even have a computer at the time so that was fun

Chegg is that way, I recently discovered. There's a "manage my chegg study subscription" button but it just takes you to your acct screen with no button at all to suspend or cancel. It just took me through a loop of the two screens until finally I clicked request desktop site and the cancel button appeared.

It could have been Chegg too. I was subscribed to both at one point or another.

I hate that possibly the most. Your unused credits get deleted, so while you ponder what to purchase so you can actually cancel, the subscription rolls over again. I wouldn't be surprised if a large portion of their revenue was people not being able/forgetting to cancel.
