How hard is it to cancel Vinyl Me, Please?
Vinyl Me, Please scores 69/100 (grade C) for how clearly it documents cancellation in the US — a partially documented cancellation policy with notable gaps. Cancellation is available via online (self-serve), email.
Members can cancel at any time via the online account page (Membership > Edit > Cancel Membership) or by emailing [email protected]; a text-SOS channel (text SOS to 314-300-9979) is also referenced in the Terms. Cancellation stops auto-renewal but the membership remains active and records continue shipping through the end of the current paid term (1-, 3-, or 6-month cycles). No prorated refunds are issued once a billing cycle has processed; unused account credits expire if membership lapses. Gift subscriptions may be canceled for a full refund only before the gift is redeemed.

Scope & fairness
This is the Documented-Policy tier: it measures how clearly the cancellation policy is published (cited, dated facts), not the behavioural experience of cancelling (Verified-Flow audit pending). Every company is scored on the same five dimensions with the same published weights — scores cannot be bought or removed. It is opinion grounded in disclosed facts, and not legal advice.
