Protip for apps/services that require monthly payments: pay and immediately cancel. You've already payed for a month, so the service will keep working until the next billing day, but it won't renew because you've already canceled.

You wish. I have had one too many services that cancel immediately upon request, even if you paid for the month 3 days ago.
Maybe it differs per country or state. I've done it dozens of times, never failed me.
I live in the Netherlands, maybe theres a law that mandates it, but I'm not 100% sure.
I live in the Netherlands too, but I'm certain this was an online service from the US. It's definitely a minority of them but it happens nonetheless
What's the problem though?
Ok, Mr. Moneybags who's never had an overdraft fee
(JK, I don't know you or your life, in case the reading comprehensionless mob comes for me)
Nah man, I'm not rich at all lmao. I just make a budget every month and live up to it D:. Never got into these kinds of problems because of this
We don't like neurotypicals with all their successful executive functioning 'round these parts. Now go on... git!
I'm autistic though but sure :p
Can I still be jealous of your executive function? ;)
;w;
NEVER put anything on autopay!
