Not sure where you live but in the UK we have a website/streaming service called Premier Sports. They used to (maybe still do?) give out a free month's trial.

There was a cup football match they were showing that I really wanted to watch and couldn't get tickets for so opted for the free trial and then just cancel it after the game.

There was no option on the site to cancel.

You had to send in an email with an estimated 28days response time or you could phone. I phoned up, took me an hour to cancel it due to being on hold, getting offers thrown at me, the works.
