What about this? Can they take away points if you cancel prior to 120 days or charge you?

I saw the 900 offer. Then I logged in and it changed to 1400. I do have a chase united CC.

Nice find. I got an offer for 1500 miles going through AAdvantage shopping. Same 99 cent promo for NY Times. I don't have a special AA credit card, I was actually looking for a cheap way to add some miles to keep my AA miles from expiring.

Note that the terms state:
"When you cancel, you cancel only future charges associated with your subscription...Cancellations are effective the following billing cycle. You will not receive a refund for the current billing cycle...We reserve the right to issue refunds or credits at our sole discretion..."

We don't have to use our Chase United MP card to be eligible for the points right?

The 120 days means you can only get the promo 99 cent rate for the first 4 weeks if you haven't had an active subscription for at least 4 months.

Just means that if you cancel two weeks into the 4 week 99 cent promo you won't be getting a 50 cent credit for the 2 weeks you didn't use. I already cancelled the first subscription - no clawback of points or additional charges other than the initial charge of $0.99

Thanks for posting this! I just saw the 1400 miles and $0.99 trial offer and signed up. I also just noticed the 1500 mile bonus for the dining program, so these together help get me over point threshold that I needed for a redemption I am hoping to make. ^

For the dining program, be aware that they stipulate in the fine print: "If your frequent flyer...account is...inactive for a period of at least 120 days following the date of a purchase that qualified you for a Reward of Miles...you will forfeit your rights to such Miles..."

Maybe if you are fast enough you can subscribe/cancel many times in a day before they realize you arent a first time subscriber

OP, I don't think you can cancel the subscription online.
The online account page still directs you to call their customer service for cancellation.

Can you confirm that you did cancel your subscription without calling in?

We're sorry to see you go.

To cancel your subscription quickly and easily, please call Customer Care at 877-698-5635

Hours of Operation:
Monday — Friday: 6 am to midnight
Saturday and Sunday: 6 am to 5pm
