I cancelled my wsj subscription the other day, I had to call to cancel which is insulting but it only took 5 minutes. Wonder if someone sued them in between our cancellations. I actually cancelled because I found out call to cancel was their policy. Wont do business with companies that have this process.

I live in a different country / time zone, wasn't unsure how long it was going to take and if my phone would be charged. Also English isn't my native language and it adds to the burden of having to call them.
