I'm confused about "not wanting it now"? Do you mean, I don't want it at all anymore - in which case, why not remove it from your hold request queue? Or, you want to read it, but another time?

I mean when several holds all come in at once and I know I can't read them all, so I want to let one or two of them go to the next person on the waiting list. Currently I just let them expire, but that means they're sitting in limbo for three days for no reason, when there are others waiting for the books.
Never heard about Overdrive freezing the account, but that would be completely insane. If a book sounds interesting but you start to read it and find out you hate it and want to return it, why should you be penalized? And anyway, it's certainly possible to read a book in 48 hours, so why keep it longer if you're done?
