Has anyone else paid for a month thinking they were on a monthly plan, canceled, then had another invoice paid, then warned about an early cancellation fee without their permission?

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.

Was facing a early cancellation fee of 838 Danish Kroner on a monthly subscription of 185 DKK. I asked the chat agent to cancel my plan without the early commitment fee. Ofcourse the virtual assistant didn't understand. Got it to connect me with a human agent, after some tries. Lady in customer service couldnt waive the agreement but helped me by switching me to a yearly plan of 140 DKK/year.

in the future, to find the best place to post your message, use the list here, https://community.adobe.com/

p.s. i don't think the adobe website, and forums in particular, are easy to navigate, so don't spend a lot of time searching that forum list. do your best and we'll move the post (like this one has already been moved) if it helps you get responses.

Hello Meraj, sure.

Meraj

I understand your issue that you would like to cancel your plan. I will surely look into this and help you.

i don't want to keep paying for something that I don't use

Meraj

Alright, as I can check you have an Active subscription of Illustrator and you are paying USD 24.51 under your account.

and also i dont want to be charge any more as well, im cancelling completely

Meraj

Alright, please allow me 2 - 3 minutes while I check what best I can do for you.

Thanks for staying connected, we appreciate your patience.

If you would like to continue, I can offer a free credit of 90 days on the subscription allowing you time to explore our products. It will be completely free wherein you will not need to pay anything for the next 3 months and it will be absolutely free for you. How does that sound to you?

You will also receive a pro-rated refund for the remaining days (if any) of your current plan. How does that sound to you?

Read Entire Message

thank you so much for your offer, but i will pass for now.

Meraj

Alright! As I can check, this plan is under an annual commitment and we are terminating it earlier than the tenure is complete which is why the system catches a cancellation fee. if we cancel right now.

May I know how would you like me to proceed?

Read Entire Message

I just want you to cancel my subscription and remove me from the monthly payment list

this is exactly why im contacting customer service

because i didnt get any notification or agreement about any fee after cancelation

Meraj

I understand Milton, I would suggest you to take the offer of 3 months to save you from cancellation fee.

I completely disagree, with respect to this fee, do you understand that i dont want to pay for a service that i dont use?

Meraj

I understand that Milton that you don't want to pay for anything that you don't even use that is the reason I am helping you with 3 months so that I can save you from the fee.

in that case, may i have proof of me agreeing to this early cancellation fees?

i just dont want to be part of the company list

Weird how we all mentioned this problem for several months while adobe did nothing but fold their greedy little arms and pout about it instead of listening. Can't wait for adobe to get taken to court for infecting people with mcafee's malware against their will too.
