Hi, I did a trial for Adobe Illustrator and have canceled it. But I didn't know how and why I need to pay and cannot cancel Adobe Stock when I didn't even try to subscribe or use it? Could anyone explain to me please? Thank you!

You ticked the "30-day-free Adobe Stock" option when you took the Illustrator trial. If you are still into the first 14 days of your paid subscription, go to https://account.adobe.com/plans and click "manage plan" on the stock plan. Cancel, and you will be refunded. 

 

If the system wants to charge an early termination fee, then you are after the initial 14 days. If you did not use your subscription, you need to contact Adobe customer service and negotiate to get a cancel without the early termination fee and eventually to get a refund. (do not accept any additional offer instead of the cancel)

If in doubt, ask the forum.

The opportunity to try the Adobe Stock free trial sometimes appears in the same screen as other trial products, so I suppose it's possible that you checked the box to start the trial. Did you save the email from Adobe when you selected the Illustrator trial? It should mention the Stock trial as well.
