Good to know. I assumed this was a forums for enlightened people with interesting questions and answers. But clearly its a troll froums like any other. Some of you may get this South Park reference... "Skank hunt" never troll a troll kiddies!!
You did sign up for it otherwise you wouldn't have had a subscription. If you took the time to read what's on your screen then you would have had the option to opt out of it.
You have not been scammed.
No, he didn't sign up for it. Opt-out promotions such as any promotion where the default option is to opt-in does not constitute agreement to contract.
Hell even the TOS everyone clicked "Next" on when installing whatever software you have doesn't legally bind you to them.

I bet you are the kind that does not read anything on a webpage and just clicks next\submit or whatever.
I was going to ask this, how do people not notice money coming from whatever source it is, bank account etc?
It seems more and more that people don't take any responsibility in their actions and when something goes wrong they blame anything\one else but themselves.
Why is this lack of responsibility attitude becoming more and more often.
These same people are the ones who just press accept to everything on software and end up with 100's of adaware and spyware programs

He definitely must be because he once made a mistake with Amazon prime hahahahah! This has reaffirmed what I already knew about myself which is I am super intelligent and everyone else isn't. What a great thread.
It think it should be unlawful for people to sign up for ancillary services and insurance by checking or unchecking a box. There should, I think, be a didicated webpage that says - attention you are signing up for ancillary service x that states the express price of such service. Free trials that lead into payment periods if persons don't cancel should also be banned IMO. The service should just automatically stop until said person expressly agrees to pay for those services. There is often too much of a delay between signing up and payment and companies rely on this tactic to get people to pay for things they don't ACTUALLY agree to (hence the OP). It would benefit everyone to ban these.

Indeed, from last July.....
I think the guy does have 1/2 a point. Where it's an annual thing, I wouldn't think it's entirely someones thought if they didn't realise it was being renewed in a years time, it's all too easy to think "I'll cancel that nearer the time".
Mine recently auto-renewed (although I use it all the time for Prime Video, next day and Prime Now stuff, so get my fair share out of it). I was a little concerned to have no communication saying "Your payment will be taken out on X day" or any reminder about it..
