Son of a bitch. It’s happening to other people too? Every month I get “Subscribe” as the line item. I’m contacting my bank for the third time in a row to remove that $3 transaction. They’ve even issued me a new card, and I still get it.
A new card won't usually solve this. If a merchant has a recurring payment on the account, the payment network will happily update them with the new card details.
The poster is not saying that they were charged after cancelling. They say they weren’t aware that it costs $3 a month, which seems pretty obvious from both the signup flow and article IMO
I've been noticing a $3 charge and had no idea this was the source. "Subscribe" is very vague description on the credit card statement. The subscription services I enjoy using have descriptions that show up in Google and send me a statement emailed (or physically mailed) to me each time they make a charge.
