REGULATORY FRAMEWORK: Account termination without notice or refund implicates consumer protection statutes including the FTC Act Section 5 (unfair practices), California Consumer Legal Remedies Act (CLRA, Cal. Civ. Code §1750 et seq.) regarding deceptive subscription practices, and the EU's Digital Services Act (DSA) Art. 17 which requires platforms to provide a statement of reasons for content or account removal. UK Online Safety Act 2023 imposes similar transparency obligations. Prepaid subscription forfeiture on termination may also engage state auto-renewal and gift card laws.
