That's what I was thinking. If you want to get out of a contract early, you'll usually lose some money. That's true for rent, public transit passes, and many other types of subscription.

If there are no consequences for bailing out of a contract, it makes them rather pointless.

But then there's always some kind of a cool down period, i.e. a time during which one can cancel a subscription without penalties.

At least this is how I expect things to work here, in the UK.

There's a 14 day cancellation period after you sign certain contracts, but I don't know the details.

Beyond that, a contract is a contract.
