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.

Hello,

I tried to get a preview but mistakenly purchased File #: 4389547.

Requesting a credit please.

May I suggest there should be a confirmation box to check to purchase the license.

Hello Beverley,

I accidentally licensed a photo that I didn't mean to. Like many other people complained here, it's TOO easy to license a photo by mistake. How can I get a license credit? The photo number is #44249521.

Thank you

I accidently licensed the image File #: 96478837 and did not mean to. I tried contacting adobe through support but could not get this matter resolved. Is it possible to have this image removed and replaced with an image credit?

Thank you,

Hi Ksenia

The options are to 'License & Save to Library' or 'Save Preview to Library'.  Once an image has been licensed it is not possible to reverse this.  As a gesture of goodwill I have added 9 credits to your account to replace the ones licensed by mistake.

Thanks

Bev

I'll pile on here... it's way too easy to accidentally license images.  In fact, I licensed two today thinking I was adding to a library.

Adobe really needs to address this by adding some sort of confirmation dialog.
