See why a charge keeps coming back
Say what a subscription is, and find where one is turned off.
A subscription is permission you gave once for a company to charge you again and again, usually monthly, until you stop it.
Nothing has gone wrong when the charge returns. That is the arrangement, until somebody ends it.
Key points
- A subscription charges again and again until somebody stops it
- It is stopped inside the account that sells it
What to remember
- A subscription is stopped where it started, not at the bank.
- A subscription charges for being available, not for being used.
Try this
Read last month’s charges in your bank app. Anything repeating monthly is a subscription.
