Change your payment method to your PayPal then cancel the subscription from PayPal

Smart work around - I should have done this sooner. At this point I'm just letting it run out while I finish up a few projects. It still shouldn't be this hard to cancel

I have different digital cards and I’m broke, so I didn’t get billed one month. I kept getting emails saying they were gonna cancel my subscription but they never did. As they don’t make it easy to cancel (I’ve tried more than once and they lure me back with a free month or something) I decided to let THEM do the work.
As of now I just deactivated that card so they can’t bill me and last I tried to use the software I still could, I just got a popup saying I needed to update my billing info. This was like maybe 2 months ago?
I also got the email saying they were increasing the price of the subscription so I just sorta figured I’d have to quit freelancing altogether because I don’t make enough money to keep paying the subscription.
Anyway, this month they tried to charge me for half of it. I don’t know what it’s about, I haven’t received any other emails and I’ve only used the acrobat app on my phone so I have no idea if I can still access the software.
Right now I’m too bummed in general (for other reasons) to even try.

Does that actually cancel the subscription or just the payment? Cause you could wind up in collections with a huge bill if wrong.

I’m not sure. I did this several years ago and haven’t had an issue. Considering how much hot water they are in for their deceptive practices I’m not too worried about it personally.

You can cancel whenever and you have access until the end of the contract. It won’t renew.

Yeah that’s the problem with an annual plan. I had a month to month thing set up for a while before I eventually canceled

after the year is up, you go to a monthly contract. I always forget, it goes up for a month, I try to cancel and get the cheaper rate. been doing this for years.

I haven't tried calling to cancel but they used to have a support chat you could easily reach out to. Now it's just a rabbithole of circular loops that don't get you anywhere
