ScammersDo not let you cancel your subscription, takes weeks to respond via email and only offer for you to check the FAQ which states go to your Apple Store subscriptions to cancel there, however Bunpo is not there nor has it been for the past three months and yet they are still charging me

Everything is locked behind a paywall;…
