The Greatest Thing Since Sliced Bread -- PayPal Subscriptions

Ok, maybe the title is stretching it a little but signing up for a subscription service through PayPal is the best way to go.

Does this sound familiar?

Have you subscribed to a service and then when it comes time to cancel, it was near impossible? You know the drill. No response to your email(s). Put on hold for hours. Finally, you forget about it a while longer until you let it consume your time to get it cancelled. It's too bad companies are so unscrupulous but they are.

Enter PayPal. Most internet service providers offer their payments and subscriptions through PayPal. This means when you cancel, you just go to your PayPal account and hit "cancel" -- end of story and subscription is gone.

I have several nightmare cancellation stories both from big and small companies and I am sure you do too.

Consider it a public service for the people that read this blog and haven't been burned yet.
