Idk, I'd assume if I just delete the credit card and they can't charge it, they'll just keep sending me bills with increasingly insane late fees, effectively putting me in huge debt over time
In my experience this is exactly what happens. I had a subscription on a checking account at a local credit union. When I moved, I closed all my bank accounts there. Eventually I had late notices forwarded to my new address in another state. Companies should close the subscription when this happens. They apparently aren’t required to.
