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

This is usually how FREE TRIALS work, though, and always has been.
No it hasn’t. Cancelling pretty much always lets you continue until you were due to be billed.
Plus the fact that if you forget to cancel you can contact them to refund. (If they are nice)
Not on free trials….as was said. It is typical if you actually already paid for a month and then cancel to have your subscription active till the end of the cycle.
You’re just wrong. I always cancel my subscription the second I start my free trials so I don’t forget later.
I think this is apple being particularly shitty because most services don’t do that.
in fact, apple forces other services to not do that but have double standards for themselves
“Free trial”
Enshitification
Who would have thought that cancelling something cancels it? Incredible find, mate.
the idea was to sign up for the free trial, then cancel right away so that you don’t forget to cancel at the end of the trial. previously, in most cases, the trial would run it’s course and you could access it for the duration. Since companies rely on people forgetting to cancel (it’s the only reason anyone even has an apple TV subcription), they’re trying to make this simple life hack more difficult.
So many idiots use apple.
