I found the process fucking terrible, so I went the EVEN BETTER route

  1. Log into my credit card

  2. Click “dispute transaction”

  3. Reason: “Unable to cancel account”

Worked a dream.

That's a good way but might cause trouble for you.

Possibly, but this was years ago now and my second (and final) chargeback.

No problems for me, luckily!

That will stop billing but not remove your personal data from the providers database. Worse if your account then gets banned dispute resolution will be harder.
