Approximately Jan 29th I tried to make a ONE time $10 contribution to freenet
to support what you guys do.
Thank you.
That contribution went through.
However what troubles me is that you guys then appeared to continue to try to
bill my paypal account for a continuing subscription. (Luckily for me, for
some reason you subsequent attempts bounced at my paypal account (still not
sure why). See messages below.
Actually you did.
But what troubles me it that it appears the you guys may have set up some
sort of repeating payment request against my paypal account (see the messages
below from Paypal to me).
Please tell me if that is so, and why. And discontinue it.
We cannot do that unless you authorize us to do so by using the wrong
form. You can cancel your mistake from paypal.com - log into your
account, there is something like My subscriptions from which you can
cancel it (probably linked from the payment details for the individual
payments?). I apologize for not being able to provide more detail since
I've never set up a subscription, but it IS possible for you to cancel a
subscription.
Thanks,
Alex
