Cache is still showing old data?

So I've created a form and fires a function in my action.ts file called subscribeToNewsletter, this is the function: 
export async function subscribeToNewsletter(
  prevState: any,
  formData: FormData
) {
  const emailFormData = formData.get('email') as string;
  const emailToLowerCase = emailFormData.toLowerCase();

  try {
    const schema = z.object({
      email: z.string().email()
    });

    const data = schema.parse({
      email: emailToLowerCase
    });

    const subscriber = await getSubscriber(data.email);

    console.log('subscriber', subscriber);

    if (subscriber) {
      return {
        message: 'You are already subscribed.'
      };
    }

    const token = sign({ email: data.email }, process.env.JWT_SECRET!, {
      expiresIn: '24h'
    });

    await sendEmailVerification({
      email: data.email,
      token
    });
  } catch (e) {
    return {
      message: 'Please enter a valid email address.'
    };
  }

  redirect(`/verify?email=${emailToLowerCase}`);
}


When I delete a row from the database it still shows when I do a console.log, it look like I'm grabbing data from the cache

export const getSubscriber = async (email: string) => {
  const supabase = getServiceSupabase();

  const { data } = await supabase
    .from('subscriber')
    .select('*')
    .eq('email', email)
    .single();

  return data;
};
when I add 
revalidatePath('/');
straight after the getSubscriber function the cache is correctly updated but this means it updates the path and I don't think this is the right way of doing this?
I've also tried adding 
export const revalidate = 0;
to the page.tsx file
