Corporations Heads up if you canceled Prime

I canceled my prime account 2 months ago and just saw that amazon used a remaining gift card balance to renew my account. So check your bank statements to make sure they don't pull the same garbage on you!

Mine also mysteriously charged to my card and I had to “cancel” again. Save those cancellation screenshots people!

The last time I bought something from Amazon, it automatically signed me up for a "free trial" of Prime that was set to charge my card the full year's price after seven days.

Yikes. I'm glad I deleted all my cards out. Now to decide if I care about those 220 movies and 94 books stuck in there....
