Dear Alarmforce...

I am sending this letter per your instructions. Please cancel my subscription effective immediately. The alarm system was picked up by Purolator this morning. My account details were included with the package and both sensors and the main alarm unit were returned and very securely packed for transit.

As I understand the situation my account is in good standing and my contract expires this month. I was told there is a cutoff for alarm system return, which I missed, so I understand a payment will be taken at the first of May, but I expect that it will be the last one.

I require immediate notification if that is not to be true, or if this letter is yet insufficient to fulfill your rather disingenuous contract cancellation policies. I anticipate with sincere happiness the absence of any further dealings with your company in the future, and regret that your avaricious desire to secure long term contracts has impeded your ability to provide the same reasonable service negotiation and termination options and proper initial due diligence that I have come to generally expect from reputable organizations. Furthermore, I maintain hope that your directives may shift in the future, so I may one day cease in advising my friends and family members, and anyone else who will listen, to avoid your company with the same vigilance one employs when attempting to elude death itself.

Sincerely,

Lincoln McCormick

hmm.. contracts and payment that don't end until you say "please end it" but only if you say please end it in the correct accent, which may not be correct to other people. Of course you also have to make the request between the hours of 1 and 2 pm on the 4th day of the second month after the third month, but not before the sixth month and then maybe they'll actually cancel your deal.

Of course, if they happen to lose the paper you sent your request in on too, then you'll never get out...

Seems like this dirty practice of keeping people tied into contracts is a growing trend too... gyms, alarm companies, and others... it's sad.
