Decide What to Do About a Subscription or Membership You Have Stopped Using
It has been months. You keep meaning to use it and you keep not using it. The renewal is coming. This works through whether the original problem still exists, what the real annual cost at current usage is, whether there is actually a realistic plan to return, and gives you a clear recommendation before you pay for another year by default.
