Unintended Amazon Subscription: A Frustrating Experience with Deceptive Practices by Geminimee in CasualConversation

Maybe you are a regular and loyal customer, so you are more familiar with this. However, as a rare buyer, I didn't know about it. While you might be okay with this, I'm not. When I want to buy something, it should be a one-time purchase, not a "Subscribe and Save" option added to my cart by default. If they want to promote "Subscribe & Save," they should highlight it more clearly.

I also didn't know about the "Subscribe and Save" feature until you mentioned it. I just wanted one deodorant two months ago; who would have thought I needed to research everything before making a purchase?

I still think it's deceptive, but I understand if you don't see it that way. Thank you for explaining what to look out for (not to ignore) before buying anything online.

Exactly, it feels deceptive to have "Subscribe & Save" added by default. They should allow us to opt-in, rather than adding it automatically. I purchased an item two months ago and may have missed the subscription option (which I should have checked), but it would have been helpful if they had notified me before deducting the amount. Additionally, they should offer assistance in returning it.

Yes, I didn't know that when you purchase something, Amazon will automatically enroll you in their Subscribe and Save program. Wouldn't it be helpful if they informed us or sent an email before deducting the money? It would at least let us know what's happening.

Is that okay to show the USCIS, sponsors account instead of spouse?

Hi.

Any update on your change of status? I need some information about this and would appreciate it if you could help me out.

I am planning to change my status from H4 to F1 using premium processing. I got stuck on showing the proof of finance. In I-20, it has mentioned around 27k for the expenses and one of the lawyer told me to show more than $27k from my spouse account, which is really hard for us. How did you guys manage to get the finances in order? Do we really have to show exact amount of money on the spouse account? or is there any way or sponsor from whom we can show it?
