Corporations Heads up if you canceled Prime

I canceled my prime account 2 months ago and just saw that amazon used a remaining gift card balance to renew my account. So check your bank statements to make sure they don't pull the same garbage on you!

They did this to me too! 2 months in a row they reactivated my account and charged me for prime after I cancelled each time. Causing my bank to overdraft. I was LIVID! I called and screamed at CS on my last interaction with them. This was back in 2018. I wasn’t even mad at Amazon before then, I just couldn’t afford it at the time. But that whole experience sent me over the edge and I vowed to never give them another cent ever again.
