### ***** "Please remove epic unlimited too expensive but epic is the best"
I love epic soo much
-- Sul123let’sgo!!, 2023-02-07

### ***-- "Loved the app but recently some issues"
I am regularly getting error messages and am unable to use the app at all. Each time I delete and reinstall it the problem is resolved but this is happening repeatedly. I use the app daily and so this is quite inconvenient.
-- tiffeewiffee, 2023-02-06

### *---- "Great until you try to unsubscribe"
Has been charging my card for over a year because the app was subscribed to on a parental controlled up for a minor and now not offering any support to cancel the subscription for which there is no ability to do so.
-- Abarout, 2021-05-13

### *---- "Can’t unsubscribe"
Even the instructions to unsubscribe on their site does not allow you to cancel your account. I have never used the app my son does not have any interest in the app, yet I can’t cancel the account...?
