We recently shared the news of Birchbox pausing operations in Canada and now have some more details for those of you with questions about your subscriptions.
February 2016 (previously advertised as March just yesterday) will be the last shipment to Canadian subscribers. If you have a monthly subscription, you will no longer be billed after your last box. If you have an annual subscription, you will be credited the remaining value of your subscription in Birchbox Points. You have until April 30, 2016 to spend all your Birchbox Points (including your current points and those credited from your subscription).
The only issue with this is that they require a minimum spend of $70 for free shipping on orders, and even then, they charge a handling fee for Canadian full size orders. So the subscription fees they change into Birchbox Points will be worth less. People have been complaining of this on their facebook page and have been told to contact them directly to arrange for a refund. So it may be a good idea to do that now if you want a refund.
