| How Do I Cancel Boston Globe Digital Subscription |
Because Apparently, You Can't Just Slide into Their DMs (Seriously?)
In this age of instant gratification, you might think cancelling a subscription would be a breeze. A quick click, a virtual "it's not me, it's you," and you're free. But the Boston Globe operates on a different beat. They don't offer digital subscription cancellations online. I know, right? Forget the "unsubscribe" button, this is more like leaving a note taped to their door.

The Great Phone Call Caper: Here's What You Need
Alright, since we're channeling our inner James Bond, here's your mission briefing:
- Grab your phone (the one that actually makes calls, not the avocado-shaped stress ball you keep on your desk).
- Dial 1-888-MY-GLOBE (694-5623). Yes, that's their actual number. Let's hope they have a sense of humor about it too.
- Prepare for some hold music. Maybe this is your chance to finally learn the recorder solo from "Hot Cross Buns."
- Be polite but firm. Remember, these are the folks who brought you all those award-winning articles. A little kindness goes a long way.
Pro Tip: If you know your account information (email address, subscription number), having it handy can expedite the process.
Tip: Pause whenever something stands out.
Freedom at Last! (But Not Quite Yet)
Once you've spoken to a customer service representative and confirmed your cancellation, you're almost there! Make a note of the cancellation date they provide. This will ensure you don't get charged again.
Hold on to that sigh of relief for a second. Depending on your billing cycle, you may still have access to the Globe's digital content for a short period. Consider it a farewell tour!
Tip: Read actively — ask yourself questions as you go.
