Good updates on Jody for those interested:

He's doing much better! His doctors are very happy with his lab results - he's staying very active and getting his strength back. The finish line is still a good ways off, but things continue to trend in the right direction.

For now, his treatments are less intensive, so he's able to go home every day and live his life - editing videos and working on Weldmonger stuff. We're feeling good about everything, and the road ahead looks clearer every day. 

A huge thanks to everyone who has supported him through all of this. It's been pretty incredible to see!

!If you signed up for an annual or monthly WelderSkills subscription from our iOS app, please read below!

As we approach our closure date in late July, I'm working to make sure that:

1. annual users who aren't able to get a full year of WelderSkills are provided with prorated refunds. 

2. iOS users aren't auto renewed when the site closes

Apple puts some extra hurdles in the process of doing that, so let me explain those really quick!

First, to cancel your current WelderSkills annual or monthly plan:

• On your device open settings

• Click on your name/profile at the top

• Then subscriptions

• Find WelderSkills from your subscriptions list  

• Click cancel

• This will make sure that you aren't auto renewed when we close the site!

If you signed up for the annual plan after July of 2024 you are eligible for a prorated refund!

To apply for a refund, follow the instructions here:

https://support.apple.com/en-us/118223

Let them know in the details that the WelderSkills service is ending in late July, before the end of your subscription period, so you'd like a refund for the remaining time that you won't be able to use.

If they deny your request, shoot me an email -  joey@welderskills.com or fill out the contact form and we'll take it from there!

Quick version:

Make sure you cancel your WelderSkills subscription from your iOS device since I can't do it on your behalf. Follow the link above if you'd like to request a refund and email joey@welderskills.com with any questions!

Thanks everybody

For anyone who wants an update on Dad's health, he made an announcement via YouTube today.

Hey everybody, this channel is where I'll continue to provide updates and answer questions as we move closer to our site closure. Feel free to post in here with any questions about that. 

As of now, I've started work on refunds/cancellations.

Some of you will see automated emails stating that your account has been cancelled. This is to prevent you from getting billed prior to the site closing down. 

Just to be clear - you'll still have full access for your subscription period. I just don't want anyone getting hit with an annual auto renewal days or weeks prior to us shutting down. 

If you'd still like to have access at the end of your annual subscription (but BEFORE site closure), email joey@welderskills.com and I can help you with that!
