These actions are accessible on the Subscribers page after selecting one or more subscribers. To select a subscriber, click on the checkbox next to the subscriber’s name.

When all subscribers are selected, the only bulk action that can be selected is the bulk tag option. Subscribers can still be unsubscribed in bulk by exporting them and pasting the exported emails into the bulk unsubscribe tool . Those unsubscribes can then be deleted in bulk from your list.
