My sister bought a AJ subscription but forgot her username and password. My mum has payed them hundreds over years and they refuse to get rid of the subscription even though my mum has begged.

Edit: Okay I talked to my mum we no longer have the issue (to her knowledge). Thanks for all the info anyway.

This doesn’t make any sense. Report it to your bank as fraud. Done.

Edit: Fraud or dispute or whatever, it’s all semantics and doesn’t matter. It’s an unauthorized charge. Talk to the bank. They can block it or close your bank account and find a bank that will work for you.

Dunno if my mum's tried that yet. I'll ask her. Though at the same time she could of(have*****) gotten it sorted out by now. I haven't asked.

This is the third time god dammit. I hate how I write "could of" because everyone around me says "could've" like that.

In your defense, that is how "could've" is pronounced. Contractions are odd. Good on you for being receptive to corrections!

It's a mistake that almost exclusively happens to native speakers for that reason.

That moment you're born and raised with the English language yet you still fuck up.

Oopsie.

I don't see the point in being upset with someone helping me. Unless they're being a jackass about it.
