Was it recent (and can you get the credit card agency to revert it?)

    Change your subscription to something else, this resets the counter. You can now cancel without fines.

    I did it a few months back, and immediately cancelled the new plan with no fees, worked a treat. Also FYI the educational discount is pretty great, I set mine up with my daughters email address no issues, I'm not sure how much they check this as it's not a school email address.

    No it’s always been that way. They have adopted a similar subscription as phone carriers. If you cancel early, you face a penalty.

    Most other subscriptions don’t actually let you cancel and receive a refund (you just ride out the sub). But, that’s Adobe. They’ll always find the worst, shittiest way to make it happen.

    I mean it’s the same company that held the internet down with Flash, that at one point was the top source of nearly all malware through a browser.
