So this is what's up with @wired.com. Not a word was sent out to subscribers about this. Today, after having cancelled my subscription a while ago, my credit card has been billed.

I fixed it, but this is not a good lookl for Conde Nast.

That's nice on Friday afternoon.

I had to cancel my subscription with Wired. I've done it twice and I still get subscription notifications. Today, I was billed. What is happening in subscriptions @wired.com.
