Need Advice For Recurring Payments [Amazon Prime] - FryPan - Sep 9, 2017
Many Amazon Prime trial accounts were created with different emails, and my debit card, and forgot at the same time (forgot the email + password). What I thought was that I had cancelled the recurring payments AFTER the trial on every account. This was not the case.
I have spoken with Amazon and they cannot help me as I don't have the account email addresses.
I have spoken to my bank and they can only cancel the payments in general coming from Amazon, which means I won't be able to buy anything on Amazon.
Really need help if anyone has been through similar things.

I've got like 3 ($7.99) payments coming in every month, and I don't even know the account details.

Call up your card issuer and have them cancel the payments. Pro tip - you can cancel the trial right after you activate it and it will stay active for the same amount of time, you don't have to wait for it to run out to cancel.

You basically read nothing that I've said, I'm sorry, but it's true.
I've been doing this "pro tip" for ages now, but I have clearly forgot to do it on some accounts. Hence why I've gotten the recurring payments.
Also, as I stated, my card issuer can only block Amazon as a whole, blocking me from buying shit from them in the future.

Why don't you just get a new card?

Hm, not a bad idea.
Would the payments get declined and not come through?
And also, can I just ask my bank for one, or do I need to give a valid reason?

They get declined.
What bank do you have? Whenever I've asked for a new card, I've done it online with zero issues.

Just say you lost your card, and the will cancel old one and send you a new one. downside, takes a few days to get it. so might wanna withdraw some bucks if needed.
