Fuck that. If the IRS sent them a letter would they respond in time? Give me a fucking break.

The IRS generally gives you 30 days to respond to a letter. At least in my experience.

LT26 is one example of a 10 calendar day limit. But the point is, we know companies can move mountains when they have to. They obviously don't feel compelled to.

That's a letter you get as a final notice after previous non-response.

Companies can move mountains yes, but a routine request to cancel a service probably isn't seen as requiring that. Especially since the service contract undoubtedly defines the terms upon which either side can cancel.

I'm hoping that they are inundated with thousands of jurisdictions trying to back out these days so they are legit out of bandwidth to deal with cancellations in real time.
