Last october I started the trial - realised it wasnt going to work for me - and cancelled. This was within days of start up.
Clicked all the buttons and done right?

Nope - turns out it became and active subsciption and I have been paying for it for months. Now if I try to cancell there is a fee. For a service I cancelled, have never actually used, and dont want.

So - check and double check and even use the chat service to make sure 
In the mean time I am 'on hold' in the chat; and I am going to guess that will remain my status until one of us dies - not wait.... the chat has just been terminated.

use phone or twitter.  there are 3 ways to contact adobe; chat, phone and twitter:

chat:
use a browser that allows popups and cookies
and click here, https://helpx.adobe.com/contact.html?rghtup=autoOpen
in the chat field (lower right), type AGENT
be patient, it can take quite a while to reach a human.

phone:

twitter:
tweet @AdobeCare

p.s. if you're contacted by anyone (via email or private message), it's much more likely to be a scammer than an adobe representative. ie, double check for an employee badge if contacted in the forums and look for an adobe.com domain in the email address if you click reply to an email. then check again and be very suspicious. any other method of contacting (or offering to contact you) is almost certainly a scam, https://community.adobe.com/t5/using-the-community-discussions/staying-safe-in-the-adobe-support-community/td-p/12919684/redirect_from_archived_page/true

Exact same thing happened to me (January 2024), so clearly Adobe is doing this on purpose and has not fixed the supposed "bug". So incredibly dishonest.

make sure you're aware of the cancellation terms by selecting your plan type (at the top of the page here), https://helpx.adobe.com/manage-account/using/creative-cloud-subscription-terms.html

for info on how to cancel your subscription, this page describes the few steps involved, https://helpx.adobe.com/manage-account/using/cancel-subscription.html

if you want to cancel but are unable to follow the steps described in the "how to cancel page", contact adobe support.

Please contact Adobe support and show the relevant documents like cancel confirmation email that you might have recieved, they will get this resolved. To contact support follow the instructions given below
1. Go to https://helpx.adobe.com/contact.html?rghtup=autoOpen
2. Wait a bit on the page that opens up, it should automatically open a chat popup. If that does not happen then look for a call out/chat icon at the bottom right, click over it and the chat popup should open
3. In order to talk to a human type "AGENT" in the chat box
4. If you are not able to get to the chat window, then disable your adblockers, firewall, enable cookies/scripts on your browser. If it still fails then change your browser/machine/network.

P.S. Be mindful of answering anyone who sends you a private message. See the following for more information about scammers

Oh I have tried to chat to a human. TWICE. As soon as I ask for a cancellation and/or refund they end the chat.

I am presently lodging a PayPal dispute.
