Common reasons to cancel Naked Wines
Naked Wines is one of the most popular wine subscriptions in the world. They’ve built their reputation on supporting the smaller guys, aiming to cut out all the added extras, and giving the most amount of money back to the winemakers themselves on every purchase. And even though they continue their expansion with some great initiatives, many people have chosen to cancel anyway.
One of the most popular reasons to cancel is that they can’t justify the monthly deposit anymore. Even though there technically is no subscription fee, as you can spend the monthly deposit of wines in their shop, the $40 can sometimes just be too much. And when you’re no longer using Naked Wines’ subscription to its full effect, there’s no point in still being a member.
Another reason to cancel is the wines on offer don’t meet their expectations or tastes. You generally won’t find the wines that Naked Wines’ stocks in your typical bottle shops, which is why many people can be a little thrown off when they’re forced to try new wines every month. We’re creatures of habit and changing your wine tastes from one month to the next isn’t something many of us can do.
This is similar to why many people cancel Binge. The current content they’re streaming simply isn’t what they were expecting so they decide to cancel.
Final thoughts
Although Naked Wines has a great business model supporting independent winemakers, sometimes the wines they make just don’t match your tastes. And if that sounds like you, hopefully, the steps above will allow you to cancel as quickly as possible.
