I was pleased that they made cancellation easy. So easy that they don't even send a confirmation that you would need to look at. I had not been checking my credit card statements and just found that they never cancelled and have been charging me for about a year after I cancelled. I called customer service and was refused a refund even for the current month that they just charged yesterday. Don't give any money to this sleazy outfit.

I paid for a two year digital subscription to the LA Times a few months ago. I had previously…read moresubscribed to the delivered. paper for about 25 years, and my parents always got the paper delivered when I was growing up. It used to be a great paper with very high quality articles, opinion pieces, sports, and entertainment. In fact when I went away to school in the 80s I would buy the Sunday edition at a liquor store in Cincinnati, at great cost, because I missed the writing so much. I thought it must be like that now when I recently resubscribed. Sadly, the current newspaper is of very low quality in terms of the writing. There are still a handful of great writers but most of the articles are poorly written with no cohesion, little useful information, and no obvious editing; essentially terrible writing. And often there is an accompanying photo that has nothing to do with the article. At first I thought AI was writing the articles but I believe AI would do a better job. I already knew that the subscription price of $160 was not refundable but cancelling just now felt so good just on principle. I can only recommend that you don't waste your money like I did.

I would recommend that not subscribing. it took almost half an hour to tell customer service I…read morewanted to cancel my subscription and to send me a final bill. I was tired of getting bills endlessly and not knowing when I was paid up to. the final straw was the billing calls, so I told them cancel my subscription and send me a final bill because they kept insisting that i make a payment. What they failed to tell me was they couldn't cancel my subscription. I got another call from their billing center and told them I canceled 2 weeks prior when they called, again they insisted I pay what was still owing and they told me they couldn't cancel and that I needed to call customer service which I did. They wouldn't take no to canceling. They rep said she couldn't adjust my bill reflecting I should only be billed for 18 days ?? They are a headache to deal with.

I signed up a few years ago but hardly used it. When i signed up it was $9.99 a month for digital…read more Then i looked at my billing one day and found out they switched from $9.99 to $34.99 a month and i was like what's going on. Well i never had a chance to call them or dispute it so i decided i'm just to cancel them. So as i read everyone's review on their customer service issues i was shocked. So the best thing to do is don't call them just have the bank stop payment on future payments. As for me i just changed my credit card # and got it replaced and they never got another penny. I'm glad i done that. If your dissatisfied do what i did. Cut them out monetarily. :)
