How do I unsubscribe?

Trying to find out where to unsubscribe, my membership starting to feel like a MMO subscription that I haven't played in months, I will get another monthly sub when there is enough decent subscriber only content.

It seems to be hidden away somewhere the option for them to stop taking my money.

It's the very first button when you hover over your name at the top right.

^ What he said.

Or just go to:

https://auth.giantbomb.com/cancel/

You can't. Mwahahaha

Thanks for quick response. Why isn't there a option in account\billing options. Seems a bit shady it isn't available from the main site.

Haha! Just a bit rude that its not in your account settings.

Just@Marino If I unsubscribe will that end my current subscription I've already paid for. I believe I'm set till 2013 But probably won't buy again

I don't really understand why you keep insisting that it's shady. All of your account info/options are readily available to you from that button in your profile menu as I mentioned.

I'll make it easy for you though.

Hopefully we'll see you back with a medal under your icon soon.

It lasts until the next payment period. At least it did for me.

I honestly don't know for sure. Probably best to send Dave a message.

Yeah once you actually put some effort into the site again, until then I will just watch youtube videos.

By that I mean the sub content, the rest of site is fine but their is no reason why I should pay for it just to disable ads, since I have ad block anyway.

@Marino: Where is the cancel account, because if its a bug then it should be reported.

I had some trouble finding this too (except I was cancelling because I have no money, not because I'm disappointed in the content).

Its hidden in Premium Member Hub under a FAQ. Simple right? Cause why would it be under account management?

@Dagbiker: Click premium member hub in the upper left, scroll down to the bottom.

Hey you have one my threads open!

Now we must all cancel our subscriptions in moral outrage at (slightly) hidden cancel buttons!

Note: your bowser needs sarcasm tag support if you can see them above :)

I'm morally outraged that they are expanding on the ending for all the people who just didn't get it, man.

Freedom!

@Bourbon_Warrior: Hiding it is kinda shady. It might not be by design, but it still looks that way.

While I agree there should be a link to the cancel page in the "Change Plan/Update Credit Card" area, it really isn't too hard to find your way to the cancel page through any of the "Support" or "Help" areas for paid membership. That's probably where I would have looked before making a thread on here.

I wanna see whats in Wayne's pictures.

Whether it's 'shady' or not, when I wanted to cancel my subscription I couldn't find it either. I had to Google it, which led me to a different forum thread with that link. It really should be more obvious on your account settings.

I've seen some very weird examples for "shady" and "hidden" in here. You guys should NEVER write a dictionary.

How do I unsubscribe from this thread?

Oh I'm not subscribed?

Rad.

They should probably make that more apparent. Something's wrong when people have to google/make a thread asking how to unsubscribe.

I keep meaning to check when mine renews because I'm not sure if a bi-weekly flight simulator quick look is really worth paying 5 bucks a month for.

Why don't they just hire Matt and Steve to do endless horror game endurance runs until they either play every horror game or become men?

I had some trouble as well unsubscribing.

When it is a lot easier to subscribe than unsubscribe I don't think the word "shady" is out of place.

Man, I can't even deal with the amount of ads on the non-subscriber GiantBomb anymore. Good luck to you.

Its not in your settings because auth.giantbomb uses a Https connection and the rest of Giantbomb does not.

At least you don't fuck to fucking phone Microsoft. I feel like there have been WAY worse cases of this in the past so chill ya'll!

Thanks for posting, had trouble finding it myself and didn't get round to asking, haha.
