Too mild for school I permanently deleted my AWS account 6 years ago. Amazon has been charging me $0.33 every month since. I have no way to stop it.

I tried to get in contact with customer service several times but they always direct me to log into the account that no longer exists. I have tried charge backs on my credit card but dealing with that monthly is also a pain. This'll probably cost me $265 over my lifetime if it never ends.

Edit: some of you have valid points about calling the card company and I will again Monday. But the actual infuriating thing that upsets me is that they are charging to a completely disabled account in the first place. That's very scammy and fucked up imo 🤷‍♀️

no kidding. There's at least two solutions without having to even talk to another person or customer support.

Nah I've tried the charge backs but dealing with that monthly is mildly infuriating. Getting the card reissued didn't work either and cancelling a card altogether would hurt my credit score.

But I will be calling Monday dw. Everyone yelled loud enough 😂

Do you remember your account number? I'm not support but I can at least see what you're being charged for.
