You've Seen the Lobsters, Now You Want Out: How to Cancel Your Boston Globe Digital Subscription (Without Tears)
Let's face it, even the most die-hard Bostonian can get a little tired of the daily dose of Dunkin's™️ malfunctions and debates over the pronunciation of "package." If you've decided to, ahem, unsubscribe from the digital Boston Globe, fear not! We're here to guide you through the process, with a little less "chowdah" and a little more "hasta la vista, baby."
How To Cancel Boston Globe Digital Subscription |
Part 1: Accepting Your Fate (It's Okay, We Get It)
We understand. Maybe you've finally mastered the art of crafting your own news feed from rogue pigeons carrying tiny scrolls. Perhaps you've discovered a newfound love for competitive snail racing (it's a thing, look it up). Whatever the reason, it's time to say goodbye to the Globe (at least for now).
Remember: There's no shame in the cancellation game.
Part 2: The Not-So-Digital Dance: The Phone Call is Inevitable
Unlike most digital subscriptions that can be cancelled with a click of a button and a silent tear shed into your keyboard, the Boston Globe requires a good old-fashioned phone call. Yes, you read that right, a phone call. Dust off that rotary phone you inherited from your grandpa (or just find your smartphone), because it's time to dial 1-888-MYGLOBE (1-888-694-5623).
QuickTip: Highlight useful points as you read.
Pro Tip: Prepare some witty banter about the Red Sox (because, Boston) to keep the conversation lively while you wait on hold.
Part 3: The Farewell Negotiation (They Might Make You an Offer You Can't Refuse... Probably Not)
Once you connect with a customer service representative, politely explain your desire to cancel your digital subscription. Here's the thing, they might try to win you back with a special offer. Listen politely, but remember, you're here on a mission.
Be firm, but friendly. After all, these are the folks who brought you the news of that epic snowball fight that shut down the city (never forget!).
QuickTip: Take a pause every few paragraphs.
Part 4: Freedom at Last (Cue Fireworks... Maybe Just a High Five)
Once the cancellation is confirmed, get ready to celebrate! You've successfully navigated the not-so-digital world of cancelling your Boston Globe subscription. High fives all around!
Important Note: Be sure to write down the confirmation number or ask for an email verification, just in case there are any future mix-ups.
