If you've ever had trouble trying to cancel a subscription, the FTC's Negative Option Rule is intended to make it just as easy to cancel a subscription as it is to sign up for one. The rule went into effect in January, but the FTC pushed back enforcement on some provisions until May 14. Now the FTC is giving businesses until July 14, saying in a st

Joe Maring / Android Authority TL;DR Reports suggest that some T-Mobile customers threatening to cancel are getting better-than-usual retention offers. The reported discounts range from $10 to $20 off per month for six months. There’s no official policy change, but recent price hikes may be prompting T-Mobile to act. One of the most longstanding pieces of kitchen-table wisdom is that you can usually get a better deal on a subscription service if you threaten to cancel. It’s not always true,
