With cancellations surging, many subscribers reported technical issues. On Reddit’s r/Fauxmoi, one post read, “The page to cancel your Hulu/Disney+ subscription keeps crashing.”

Another added, “Already cancelled my Disney subscription,” while others said they faced looping logins and stalled forms. These firsthand accounts suggest Disney’s systems struggled under the unusual traffic volume.

More likely they did it on purpose to reduce cancellations for now, hoping people will forget in a couple days.

Right. And, they will. If they are smart – and they are – They will release a new show super fast and everyone will just come back

Disney wants trumps approval for a partial merger with the nfl.

As the nfl makes 23 billions in revenue I really hope enough people cancel that disney won't have made the better financial decision

Thank you for the list of options. However, please avoid using share.google.com links if you can! Less information they can collect from random web traffic, the better.

Ugh fuckers, I had to open in Brave to get the actual url without a bunch of issues with the Google search on Android.

Thanks for pointing it out, updated!

Hell yeah.

Add this for good measure (also the most expensive option on behalf of our mouse overlord.)

Remember, you can still call to cancel (888-905-7888)

[–] marduk@lemmy.sdf.org 17 points 23 hours ago (2 children)

But that might cost the company more money per cancellation somehow!

Not somehow, absolutely guaranteed to fuck their shit up and should be the first choice you make if you want your voice heard through this avenue
