What is the supply of services agreement even talking about?
"I agree to you beginning the supply of services including digital content before the end of the 14 day legal cooling off period and I agree that I lose the right to cancel the contract when the supply of digital content starts"

What?

These are some strangely worded service agreements to be sure.
Whenever someone wants me to sign something that says "I agree that I lose the right" I immediately become apprehensive.

I think I can safely wait this one out.

Maybe they can reword that since it seems to paint with too broad a brush.

That sounds to me like I'm agreeing to a subscription or a paid upgrade of the game which starts after 14 days and I have to cancel before if I don't want that. But I might be wrong and unnecessarily paranoid.

That's why I closed the game and will uninstall before even playing a second of it.

At least it was the first time I actually read the agreement. Waiting it out

It's a "no refunds" disclaimer for the premium subscription.

Which, by the way, is cheapest monthly. The 3 month subscription costs the same as 4 months. The year costs the same as 12.5 months.

Do I subscribe automatically in 14 days after agreeing?

No, it's a pretty standard UK digital rights agreement, worded a little funny sure but it functions in the same way as most others.

Here, it is saying that once you purchase premium time, you agree to waiver your rights to cancellation (refund) within the standard 14 day cooling off period as they will have already begun providing a service to you before the end of that period.

It means 'I am happy for you to provide my premium from the moment I purchase it, and I waiver my rights to a 14-day cooling off period and will be unable to refund'

Isn't it a little weird to throw it the start, though? I assumed it was in relation to premium, but it could've easily popped up when you went to buy premium instead

You waive the rights to cancel a payment to the company after you receive its benefit.
You are immune to this rule until 14 days after signing this contract (hitting I accept)
The reason they're having you sign this off early is to effectively nullify the 14-day rule.

Just your basic contract tricknology
