You will not receive or be eligible for a refund of any previous Fees paid.

Therefore to cancel your subscription before the Subscription Renewal Date, you must cancel the subscription by 23:59 UTC on the day before the Subscription Renewal Date. If you wish to cancel your subscription, we recommend doing so in as far advance as possible to avoid any risk that the cancellation does not go through on time (e.g. due to internet connectivity issues). If you experience any issues in cancelling, please contact customer support.
5.5 The availability of the Premium Membership may be modified by us at any time, including changing the Fee, the benefits included or completely withdrawing the subscription, by providing 30 days�� advance notice:

5.5.2 In the event that benefits included in the Premium Membership are modified but the modifications are only in addition to the existing benefits then you shall have no additional rights to end your subscription. Your standard right to end your subscription at the next Subscription Renewal Date remains unaffected.
5.5.3 In the event that a subscription package is ended entirely they we may either:
(a) maintain your existing subscription benefits until your next Subscription Renewal Date, upon which your subscription shall automatically end and not automatically renew; or
(b) end your existing subscription at the end of the 30 day notice period (or any later date that we choose) and provide you with a pro rata refund of the Fee to reflect the period for which subscription benefits were not received.
For the avoidance of doubt, if you do not end your subscription after receiving notice of modifications, you will be deemed to have accepted the notified changes.
