I can’t remember and it’s not in the post. How long do we need to we need to keep these subscriptions active  William Charles After how many days since subscribing is it safe to cancel without miles being clawed back?

Did all three yesterday (AA) and the miles have posted. First 2 are no brainers. Only did Econ bc I need to top off my account.

Yes and they’re pushy with trying to keep you. Online cancellation for California only.

Yup. If you use a real name, still gotta cancel so you don’t end up in collections though.

If they’re paper deliveries go on vacation forever and enjoy a lifetime of online access.

Are you able to get this deal if you’ve opened/closed a trial account before?

Terms say “Eligible on one (1) subscription per loyalty account number”

So I’m not sure if you can do all 3.
