No way to cancel subscription

After I got scammed by you to try the "free Adobe Stock trial" (thx for the dark pattern) I ended up with a monthly plan for 35€. I tried to cancel the plan but it is IMPOSSIBLE as there is no button for it. Any Help page says there is a "Manage Plan" Button which is a scam by itself. There just isn't!

It has to be possible to cancel online (EU law since 2022).

Next step is going to the consumer protection center in Germany. Luckily they deal with things like this.

 

For anyone considering getting an adobe subscription: RUN!

The terms and conditions with the 30-day free trial say clearly, that you will have an annual plan if not cancelled before. As your screen does not show the "Manage Plan" button, I agree, however, that it is difficult to self cancel. I do not know what went wrong, but if, when trying again, the button is not displayed, contact Adobe customer care.

Important: Adobe does NOT contact you unsolicited by e-mail or direct message. If you get contacted by direct message from a person, claiming to be an Adobe employee, look at that profile and look, if they bear the “Adobe Employee” marking under their name. Adobe support does not use Skype to give you support.
If in doubt, ask the forum.
