    Hey, I had the same charge on my statement! It turned out to be a legit subscription renewal. Just check if you've signed up for any services recently.

    I keep getting a reoccurring $16.99 charge to my debit account and have no idea why. I already have a 14.99 once a month subscription to Prime. I think I'm owed a lot of money

    Why did I get charged on 10/27 for $13.27. Then the following week for on 11/06/24 for $15.89. Then saw I just saw 3 times in a row (all each inthe same month from 10/27/24then 1/06/24 then on10/14/24 $21.89 for pending. I only have the very basic & got charged for 3 different prices in 1 month. I only signed up for a basic once a month. I do not recognize the other chargers & demand to only pay a once a moth fee like I agreed. If I do not see any changes to correct this in 1 week. I will cancel Primevall together & show my good amount of friends who belong in the International Brotherhood of Electrical Workets & the AFL-CIO theses over charging & the mer fact that you took advantage & thought we were to stupid to catch this. This is not over. I don't care if I loose Prime. I will not get ripped off & tomorrow I'm spreading the word at a meeting to bring to attention. RN I was counting on living on my fixed budget just to get through a crisis & this is discussing seeing this. Netflix
