      At the beginning of this month, I attempted to cancel my Paramount plus before the billing cycle. When I attempted to cancel they claimed that I would have two month for free. However, I saw that my card continued to be charged $10.89. After that situation, I just decided to cancel the subscription all together. Ever since then every day at 2:15 AM est, my card continues to be charged but declined each time due to the lack of funds which I purposely did due to them not respecting my wishes to cancel. I believe if a person is trying to cancel a service clearly that service is of no longer of use to them. To continuously charge my card is not a good business practice. Ive called my bank and because it hasnt been officially charged yet, I cant dispute the charges until its posted, or else I would. I have tried to contact customer support, no helpful ********************** at all. I cant even access my card on file to delete it. What Paramount Plus is doing is fraud. Theres no reason why when canceled before the subscriptio renewed my card should continue to be charged. I no longer want the service! Please honor that, and stop charging my card.

      I am rejecting this response because:

      i have cancelled the service and would just like a refund. Resolution for you to solve this problem would be to discuss with that rep how to deal with customers. 

      Sincerely,

      *********************

      e you wouldnt intentionally do this, but thats what happened. Maybe you should tell people what your doing instead of blaming it on a connection issue. I am already considering canceling and this didnt help out at all.
