In the next two weeks, it will be a year since T-Mobile Tuesday offered the free one-year subscription to The Athletic (I didn't even use it). It renews at $60 after the free one year expires. Cancel your subscription (if you haven't done so) if you don't want to be charged or don't want the headache of having to contact them after getting charged.

Here was the original deal from last year.

Thanks for the reminder. I used a prepaid card that has long been drained, but cancelled anyway.

Quote from jamesl :
Are there any deals on renewal? Surprisingly I've come to really enjoy The Athletic, but I really only follow two teams and am not a big sports fan beyond that, so it's hard to justify $60/year.

They run promos all the time, I've been paying for it for a few years and I just let my subscription expire and within a few weeks I always get an email with a deal to resub. Here's a promo from one of their podcasts for $3.99/mo if you are looking for something sooner https://theathletic.com/checkout2...castID_62_

Thank you for the reminder! The thought of canceling went flittering through my mind last week, and was immediately forgotten. You are doing God's work. Thanks!

Quote from FantasticBike3156 :
My iOS subscriptions say expires on XX date and gives me the option to resubscribe. Does this mean I'm cancelled? I could never log in when I signed up and the athletic never found my subscription info.

Same. Anyone know?
