Had no idea what that extra expense on my card's statement was, turns out fucking amazon been charging me even though I don't remember ever signing up (I assume they charge it with prime or something?)

Canceled my prime subscription, canceled that kindle subscription, had a mind to call for boycotting amazon in its entirety.

Amazon is very tricky and shady when it comes to these things. You can just be browsing on the app and one click signs you up for all types of shit.

I've found Prime enabled a couple of times myself. But the shittiest is their shady backup payment crap.

I ordered a large item, and my bank declined my credit card. Amazon took out it upon themselves to charge an old debit linked to an old bank account. Triggered an overdraft fees. I never gave them permission for any of this. I figured ordering with one card means I'm ordering with that only card.

In the 10 years that I've used amazon I've never seen this type of behavior from them before, I don't know what happened to them.
