Instant Ink is a Scam

[AngryWizard]

"Free" instant ink, but it won't work after I cancel my account? What kind of garbage is that?

Hi @AngryWizard,

I'd like to help!

I understand you are unable to use the instant ink cartridges after the service cancellation.

HP Instant Ink cartridges do not work after the end of your current billing period, and you are required to return them to HP. To continue printing after your billing cycle ends, make sure you have standard replacement ink cartridges ready to use in your printer.

If you do not have the postage-paid envelope provided by HP, go to Recycle HP Instant Ink Cartridges to order an envelope.*

Once you cancel the service, Your service continues until the end of your current billing period.

Refer to - Cancel Your HP Instant Ink Service

Hope this helps! Keep me posted.

Repeating the policy I  am telling you in unethical and likely illegal is not a solution.
