Read it in English
Hello, I am travelling in June. Could you pause your newsletter emails for that month only? I would like to stay registered and receive messages again in July.
Hello Adam, your registration is kept. Sending will be paused from 1 to 30 June and will resume on 1 July.
Newsletters issued during the pause will not automatically be resent. You can read them in the archives on our website. Thank you, and have a good trip!
How do you say pause, cancel and resume a subscription in French?
Mon inscription reste active, mais je ne reçois aucun message en juin.
My registration stays active, but I receive no messages in June.
Je peux consulter les archives sur le site.
I can browse the archives on the website.
A service reply can say something different about each action: keeping an account, sending new emails and making earlier issues available. Here the website archives give Adam a way to read the June issues himself. Consulter means to look up or browse information; it suits an archive, a timetable or an online catalogue.
