Okay I’ve done the free discord nitro a couple of times and i gotta say… It was surprisingly easy to cancel. Billing and subscriptions tab in discord —> nitro subscription cancel service button. Thats it. It’s hardly as bad as the rest of them, and so it is a little surprising seeing them go to court over it.

Reminder for everybody to never install Discord. It functions as a desktop web app, and you can even use it like so on your phone. You shouldn’t even give Discord your phone number, tbh, and you should never pay them money.

I keep trying to remove my phone number from my Discord account, but each time I do “suspicious activity” is found on my account and needs my phone number to verify.

I wonder if you can submit a support ticket? Although, if they’ve already got record of your number it doesn’t really do much good to remove it. Not giving it to them is just something that makes your habbits harder to track and make it harder for them and associated companies to build profiles on for things like advertisement and in some cases mass surveillance and espionage, although I make no statements on the extent of Discord’s particular activities.

Not surprised.

They keep offering these “Free Trials” of Nitro, but then they wanted me to put in a credit card in order to claim it?

Last I checked free means I’m not handing over shit.

But hey I know what’s up, they just want me to forget I have Nitro, bill me for a month when I do, and then make it difficult to cancel knowing that I can’t just tell my bank to dispute the charge because then they’d ban my account.

That’s why the second the Free Trial needed a card, I just backed out of it.

When are we switching to Revolt?

it’s not hard, though? I live in Turkey so I don’t get protected by EU

Even then, it’s still a single button press

People are barely literate these days, I’m not surprised.
