No disclaimers on these new $30 US-CA Plans that you can't downgrade to cheaper plans once you upgrade. And if you want to remove payment card from file to stop such scammy offers from renewing, you CAN'T, by yourself.It is awful that in this modern ...

I'd say vote with your wallet. Promptly disable your subscription and ask them to remove the payment info from the file. And don't fall in the trap of getting held up by not-so-important holiday add-ons in the age of Airalo like options. Those add-...
