Ponzi Posted February 18, 2023 Share Posted February 18, 2023 Flo says you cancel at any time. But they also say it's an annual subscription. Has anyone cancelled a Flo account and do they really stop billing? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Any business that isn't a scam should process customer cancellations without drama.

That’s not really how business operations works in the legal or customer experiences realms though. I’m going to get a bit personal when I say that I get your tough guy schtick and applaud the consistency no matter how many ellipses must be sacrificed, but maybe just once don’t mash the send button before thinking “does this help our niche sport’s bigger picture?” 1 i am an idiot on the internet Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can this impact your credit score? Also may have to deal with multiple subscriptions if the card is re-used. Huge pain in the arse.

How is that personal accountability? And, how is it easier? I try to not expose myself to identity theft as much as possible by paying cash in person, etc. I also probably buy less online than most. Even with that I bet there's a dozen companies I'd have to change my CC info with. I know because my wife and I moved and I had to update our address on more places than I thought. But...

GreatWhiteNorth Posted February 19, 2023 Share Posted February 19, 2023 The last time I cancelled Flo there was a conflict about when exactly the 'end date' of the subscription was. It was less than a 48-hour swing, but it made the difference. The first customer service rep I emailed with, was dismissive and unhelpful (which was over the weekend.) The second (on Monday) was quite helpful and cleared everything up quickly and easily. My advice is to work with the varsity customer service team at Flo during the regular work week and avoid the JV. As much as I bash Flo here, that 2nd customer service person was really good. No complaints at all. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't want to reenter new credit card information for every site I use. Flos demographic is is the Dads that’ll pay for every pair of custom socks and Rudis shoes for little Johnny before age 12. That’s why they don’t care about things like Track running right. Because why should they care if a local tournament runs too long or doesn’t populate the consolation bracket. It’s not like those kids will be wrestling in Who’s #1. So who cares about growing the sport. They only make money off the niche demographic that usually opposes measures to grow the sport. So why would they care about transparency Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DocBB Posted February 19, 2023 Share Posted February 19, 2023 (edited) Back in the day it was near impossible, but I think a lot of that had to do with the shady founder and the company's aggressive attitude under him and he has since left. But I always try to use a debit card just in case. Then when they try to recharge an empty card...jokes on you Flo! I actually got like a year of free Flo this way because I technically never cancelled and they kept trying to charge an empty card. Karma!
