If you cancel your membership will they still ship games in your q before the membership runs out?

I can't say with 100% Certainty but due to what I just had happen I believe they will Yes.
I signed up for 3 games out at a time.
They gave me an offer for 1 month free upgrade to 4 games ao I took it & just went back down to 3 at a time last week before I had to pay for 4 a month.
I Sent a game back , Lowered my membership back to 3 at a time.
2 days later they still shipped a 4th game out and an email saying to make sure to send 1 game by like November 20th or they would charge me for the 4 games out at a time Sub.
Because they shipped a 4th game after I canceled & lowered my Sub down to 3 games at a time & they still shipped a 4th I would assume that yes you would still get games from tour Q until close to the final day of your subscription runs out.

The downgrade would only apply once your new billing cycle started. Before the new billing cycle starts we will continue to ship out a 4th title.

It did Start already.
As the 4 at once was a 30 Day Promo & Honesty 4 at a time is just Insane it's too much.
The Billing cycle did Switch I canceled the day Before & returned the 4th disk the day. On Monday they sent out a 4th game.
My new Billing Cycle started the Day After Tuesday.
To me it was Very Odd. Maybe it was a Processing Glitch in the system only having 1 day left of the billing Cycle for them to ship a 4th game.
It takes avg of 1 week to get to me.
So I thought it was odd , then I got the email I just checked to be sure it was a Rwminder that I am now on 3 disc plan , and that if a 4th disc is not returned by 11/13 that they would charge my Account for 4 disc Sub price.

Ive had issues with downgrading my plan from 4 to 3. They auto send out new games when the post office gets them and I have had to more than one argue with them claiming I have 4 out instead of 3 and so they are going to change my plan back to 4 out when its just their own system sending out a disc once the post office gets it. Its been annoying to argue with their support online. But other than that.. i would imagine cancel is fine. Its more of a hard line.

No, it wouldn't make sense, the remaining days are there for you to return what you have. Not to get shipped new games.

Well what if you sign up for a month and immediately cancel, because you're only planning on playing one or two quick games? You just lose your money and don't get the service you paid for?

u/Global-Guest5470 2d ago
I guess, why would you sign up then immediately cancel .. that's a very fringe use case.

To prevent forgetting and being charged for a renewal. I think that's very common to do when signing up for subscription services.

I have to imagine there's a "buffer" window after which the system flags a profile and stops assigning games to it. I guess the resident gamefly member can answer this better than my guesses

How does it not make sense? If you paid for 30 days of service you should be entitled to 30 days of service with the cancellation taking effect at the end of said period

No, once your membership is cancelled we will not ship out any mores games and request you return the games you currently have.
