match automatic re-newing

I thought I had let my match account expire at the end of december (I had hidden my profile and didn't check it for a long time) but the then I read talltx's tread on how he was automatically renewed so I curiously checked my status and lo and behold I'm subscribed up until 3/2005. It seems like match automatically renews you if you don't specifically resign. Thanks TT!

I just cancelled yahoo before the autorenew date of 2/10. Now match is the only one I'm still on. Since I was seeing pretty much the same dudes on both sites, I really don't think I'll be missing much without yahoo.
Every type of service you can think of makes plenty of money with autorenew contracts.
The thing is... they tell you about it when you sign up. It'd be nice to be able to complain, but really it's our own darn fault. (Yeah, I've done it, more times than I can count.)
The only thing that REALLY makes me mad is when you are on one of those services and you cancel prior to the renew date, and they terminate your service on THAT DAY. That steams me- if I paid for the full term, I want the service right up to that last day before I'm shut off.
