Postbye vs MailMyCancel: which one mails your cancellation letter?

MailMyCancel is an online service that mails a cancellation letter by USPS Certified Mail for $14.99 a letter, with no account and no monthly fee, according to its pricing page. You pick the company from its list or type the address yourself, and it says it sends the letter to the company’s corporate headquarters. Postbye does one job too: you pick the company, and we write your cancellation letter, address it from our database of company mailing addresses and mail it by certified mail with return receipt the next business day. MailMyCancel lists addresses for 100+ services, and its refund policy says no refund is possible once the letter is with USPS.
