I mean, paying for Netflix with cash would definitely be a power move.

Utilities don't have special offers that I know of. Check or online is very country dependent though.

I'm having a little trouble thinking of a service that would have automatic reminders but not require an account to access the service... Hotel? Something with layaway? Maybe car payments. Tuition too. Those don't exactly seem like spurious account services though... Maybe the reminders are for pickup?

My VPN sometimes sends me reminders and special offers when my contact is almost up, for example. Mobile phone data usage reminders and warnings. Even just reminders that they're going to be charging your card on payment day.

But mainly I don't wanna leave home so paperless has already won for me lol

Ah, term based contracts, that's the missing use case! Here I was forgetting not all contracts can be canceled whenever.
