Easy solution: send a certified letter with your cancellation notice; any charges after that can be legally reported as CC fraud. Enough people do that, and maybe they won't be pulling that bullshit anymore.

If you can sign up on the web, you should be able to cancel on the web.

Factoring in the cost of my time, sending a certified letter costs me $200.

Eight months of billing at $25 a pop, and they won't stop until you fill out their stupid form; screwing them over with a CC fraud charge would be worth $200 to me, if they're going to be that shady.
