Watch Out

Proton Unlimited bundles Mail, VPN, Drive, Calendar — you can't cancel just one service separately.
Refunds are pro-rated and manual — no refund button, must email support@proton.me.
Crypto payments are generally non-refundable (credit offered instead).
App Store/Play Store purchases follow Apple/Google refund policies, not Proton's.
What Happens After You Cancel
