You can get a refund within 30 of an auto-renewal. That's what I did too.

Whaaaaa? For reals? It didn't let me automatically, so I assume you had to contact them?

[–] Dekkia@this.doesnotcut.it 2 points 1 day ago

You have to contact them about the refund, it's not automatic.

You can still cancel your subscription so that it won't auto-renew in 2 years and it let's you leave a comment when doing so if you want to voice any concerns.

Yeah, I'm just salty about the timing. I've already started the process, but if I had a crystal ball I would have downgraded to a year max, or maybe monthly.
