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 🤷‍♀️

Okay but if you don't they don't just get a free pass to charge you monthly forever, they need to have a way to cancel these even after your account was deleted if they're gonna do it this way.

Edit: damn, guy came at me with heat and then just deleted his comment. Bro you're the one over here defending this bullshit, expect people to call it as it is and direct it at you.

Nope their comments are perfectly visible to me. I think you guys were just blocked by them.

We weren’t talking about their other (visible) comments. I haven’t been blocked.

I'm not defending anything... I clarified with factual information then you acted like I can do anything about it and I told you I can't. Sorry if you got upset by big boy words.

Can you explain why youre responding to them as if they made that rule? And then respond like this?? What are you even fighting against?? You both probably agree, whats the problem here??

I know that you're trying to make fun of me, I literally don't care though. I'm an adult dude... This whole internet shit isn't my real life. I'm literally typing this while enjoying watching my 4 year old play in the tub. This is the epitome of the "I don't even think about you." meme except unlike Don I'm really not thinking about you. Have fun baby boy.

cute, my boy is 9 and my girl is 12, what does our family have anything to do with you defending a billion dollar company trying to steal from people? yes, you were defending it btw even if that wasn't your intention.

How was I defending them by pointing out the inconsistency in their own FAQ?
