Cancelled Adobe stock in June - still getting charged

Question

So I cancelled Adobe Stock after the trial period in June. It seems that the trial period offer was not very clearly explained as many people can attest.

I have a transcript that confirms cancellation and that I won't be charged any further and that I won't be charged a cancellation fee.

I expected to be charged for the month of June - and I was - but now I've been charged for July and August and my Adobe stock account appears to still be active!

Now what?

Thank you for the reply, twaritar3263062!

The experience with Adobe Stock and Adobe in general was very disappointing: after being a paying customer for Adobe for almost ten years (Photoshop & Lightroom) it felt unfair that you made me pay for the Stock for full year against my will (I tried to cancel the subscription after the trial period). However, I thought I might find use for the images later on. Little did I know back then…

Your policy to remove remaining licenses from the account after the subscription period seems just arrogant. There is no technical justification for your action, there’s only abuse of the client for your profit. When I contacted the customer service agent concerning this issue, he recommended me to renew my subscription for one more year (~450€) so I wouldn’t have to rush with my licensing… One of the worst customer service experiences – I just feel like i've been robbed.

Sorry for the poor experience Tuomas. But still, I would recommend downloading all your remaining assets before 12th September 2017 as in that way you won't lose the licenses and can use them later even if you wish not to renew your subscription again.

Also, thanks for sharing your feedback regarding the policy of removing licenses from the account after the subscription period. We shall definitely pass it on to our concerned team.

My Adobe Stock -experience was similar and awful. I missed my one moth cancellation window so I had two options: pay the full year (~450€) or cancel with 225€ (and get nothing). Now that I've paid the full year and gained some 100 licenses, all of those licenses will reset to zero in five days when my subscription period ends. It would have been nice to have some licenses for the future, but it seems I paid 450€ for nothing.

It would be wonderful to hear how you got "transcript that confirms cancellation and that I won't be charged any further and that I won't be charged a cancellation fee." I would like to get similar transcript from Adobe too as I begged for one from the customer service with no luck.
