how do I unlicense something that I purchased accidentally?

I'm just now figuring out this adobe stock and there are buttons all over to license stuff, and I can't see any prices anywhere.  I apparently have x photos that I can license as part of my subscription, but as I was traversing the site trying to see what stuff costs I ended up accidentally licensing a photo twice.  It really needs more feedback on what I am about to do.  So, how do I un-license the extra copy of a photo?

Thanks!

Hi K.,

Apologies, I only now saw your post. I don't see a record of you contacting customer care under the Adobe ID you are using here on the forums. I'm sorry you had a poor experience if you decide to renew your Adobe Stock subscription by the 19th, thirty days from when you closed your most recent subscription, I can assist you with receiving a replacent for the accidental licenses.

Hi Adobe/Bev

I accidentally licenced an image that I didn't intend to (84516337). How do I remove this from my account and get my credit back?

Many thanks

Hi Ashley

There isn't an option to remove an image once it's been licensed.  I've added a credit to your account to replace the one licensed by mistake.

I also accidentally clicked on an image to license it, would it be possible for me to get a credit to replace that image? The image is FILE #: 80886798

I just had this same issue. I went to click on something and BAM accidentally licensed it. Can you help me resolve this? Agree it is WAY too easy to accidentally purchase an image. Should be a window asking to be sure. The image I did not mean to purchase is #72774794.

I don't see the credit - it says I have 7 images to purchase when I should have 8 with the credit. Also - how do I stop the emails coming in from people posting the same thing? I keep getting emails notifying me of other people with this problem on this thread and I would like that to stop.

Hi manuelv43619597

We don't have the option to cancel the order but I've added a credit to your account that you can use for your next image purchase.

Kind regards

Can we just get a fix on this issue instead of constantly crediting people please? Just a simple confirmation pop up would be incredibly helpful.

Hi,

I accidentally licensed this image: 90381507

I just went to click on it to get a bigger view but buttons appeared when I hovered so it just licensed the image without me having really seen it.

This is really bad UX and I hope you change it soon, for your own sake because I can see a lot of people are having a similar issue!
