You remembered this one. What about the ones you didn't?

You searched for this page, which means you knew you were paying for it. Nobody googles the subscription they forgot about — and the forgotten ones are where the real money goes. The annual charge that hit eleven months ago. The trial that quietly converted. The second account you opened and never closed.

This guide is free, like every guide on this site. What QuitSub does that you can't do from memory is scan your bank statements on your own device — nothing uploaded, no bank login, no Plaid — and surface the charges you'd stopped noticing. The scan runs free and shows you how many it found and what they cost; seeing all of them, with the way out of each, is $49 per scan, and free if it finds less than $49 a year. It found the founder $7,771/yr in his own statement, and he clawed $4,685 of past charges back in full.
