Stupid app

I can’t activate the account thereby account, the activation call doesn’t come through and I’m being debited and can’t cancel subscription

Unimportant app

This app is insignificant and offers very little value, yet it acts like it’s a big deal. The app is ridiculously difficult to access, whether or not you enter the code correctly. It seems way too full of itself. The user experience is inconvenient and frustrating. Honestly, this app should be completely removed.
