Can't get through by phone. Just a series of invasive marketing questions for special offers. You are eventually cut off for not entering answers. May need to contact my credit card company for assistance. Update: Changing from 1 to 3 stars. While the phone numbers provided no satisfaction, I did reply to my initial order confirmation email from The Economist, with the message to cancel my subscription per the information in “the attached confirmation below.” This seemed to work and I received a very professional response acknowledging my request and confirming the cancellation. Will monitor my credit card statement to see if this worked. I did this as my own guess at a solution. I believe in giving credit where credit is due, but took off a star because this option was not offered and the phone numbers on the web were an exercise in frustration. I’ll update again, if necessary, but hopefully this is the end of it.
