Customers with the most expensive subscription will be charged $135 for a cancellation from the second year onwards.Update: 1:14 p.m.: Incorrect information in the article has been corrected and the last paragraph about cancellation costs has been reworked so that it becomes clearer when the customer has to pay which cancellation costs.
