Paypal is much safer, you can go there and zap any subscription.
Update. UK and EU i law changed, a few years after I retired from working for banks. You can now force cancel a CA but many retailers and even bank staff may still claim otherwise. https://www.choose.co.uk/guide/cance...nt-rights.html |
My wife has a recurring subscription order from Amazon. If she was to go, I could log in and cancel it. I can get into her computer and as long as she has the UN?PW saved there, I could get in to anything I cannot get into now. So I'm all set in that regard. And her kids could help with this if need be. At some point. we'll sort out our account passwords so access is available if needed.
