I sent an email to contributors@seekingalpha.com requesting to close my account, and send payment for the balance, but the emails are blocked and fail.  How request to close my account?

Hi,


Someone from our accounts team will be in touch.

Jonathan Liss, if someone has a basic free account (i.e., a non-subscription account) that they want closed, how do they get that closed.  Daniel Shvarstman has been silent on this matter and completely unhelpful.  Any SA subscriber, by law, has the right to close their account if they so choose.  Why does SA violate law and prevent folks from having an avenue to close an account?

I also cannot find a means to close my account, and there is no "Delete Account" link on the settings page as your directions indicate.  Please close my account.  Thank you.

Hi,


Authors cannot close their account directly. Please email contributors@seekingalpha.com for help with that.

Lawsuit anyone? I can't find where to delete my account as well. This is a super shady business practice as they advertise cancel at any time. If they don't address this soon, might have to file a complaint and a lawsuit

I don't understand what grounds you would have to file a lawsuit.  I don't think there is any law that says a website must close your account if they charged you nothing in the first place.
