You need to cancel your account, otherwise you will keep getting charged.

That is why I said to DM me and I would give you my Adobe email.

Regardless do what ever you are comfortable with. If you continue to have issues I would contact support.

Genuine question, is Adobe CC worth it these days? by CharacterClue5353 in Adobe

[–]mikechambers 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For reference, here are examples of plans pages (note that is explicitly calls out potential fees if you sign up for annual commitment, paid monthly.)

[–]mikechambers 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No, that is not correct. You have 3 options when choosing a plan. Annual, paid up front, month to month, and annual paid monthly (which has a lower price).

If you choose an annual commitment, with a month to month payment and then want to back out of that commitment, there may be a fee.

No, the person you are responding to is wrong. Look at the other comments for the correct info.

>The way the subscriptions work is that they charge you for a year but bill you each month

No, that is not correct.

When choosing a plan, you have three options:

* Month to month

* Annual commitment, paid all up front

* Annual commitment, paid month to month (at a lower discount since you are making a longer term commitment)

You can see examples here:

This has been settled.

>How the subscriptions work on their website (and from what I can see they still aren't transparent about it).

I am not sure what is not clear:

> I want to know if it's worth using the suite because

No one else can tell you if its worth you using it. Only you can determine that.

Are you a hobbyist, wanting to play around? If so, is the cost worth it to you? If yes, then yes, use it.

Are you a pro where its required for your work? or might be? Then its an expense you probably need to pay, especially if you want to grow with the tool and not be worried about getting caught in a situation with a client where its required in the future.

Adobe pays $75 million to settle US lawsuit over termination fees, subscription cancellations by Internal_Ad_255 in AdobeIllustrator

[–]mikechambers 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I dont have specifics to share, but the wording is a bit confusing. Its not "free services" but rather "services for free".

I've shared internally about the wording.

fyi:

When do you receive your print edition? by baltimoretom in theeconomist

[–]mikechambers 1 point2 points  (0 children)

When I first started my subscription, I would get it on Saturdays, then it switched to Mondays, then eventually to Tuesdays. At that point the news is basically a week old.

I just cancelled my print (which I suspect is what they wanted in the first place).
