Two weeks before your subscription expires - they auto-renew if you didn't disable that function. I didn't disable the goddamned function and - of course - they auto-renewed me for the Cadillac plan that's $160 a year. My perfectly fine cheapie plan was $60.

I'm in the process of trying to get a refund and I'm not enjoying it.

My cards are always frozen because of this. Only unfreeze before paying.

I do this with my debet card and it drives some people I know crazy. Its annoying only when there is shit signal.

I have had my debet card skimmed like twice in town. So now it stays frozen and people can deal with it.

depending on your bank, there might be an option to disable magstripe transactions, thats the shit that can be easily cloned. ive seperate cards for online vs physical.

i also run a magnet over the stripe, no chip/contactless (contactless set to ~$40 limit), no payment.
