A number of organisations selling online get you to put in your credit card details for payments and then bill you when your subscription expires.

 In a recent case, there was an option for billing only once (for one calendar year) or you could choose automatic billing every year. The customer took the first option, but when the receipt came through it stated the billing would recur every year.

The customer had to go back to the supplier to get this changed.

Keep an eye on this type of trading or you might find yourself getting unwanted repeat bills.

Unfortunately, when you set up repeat billing, the charges to your credit card are going to continue until you do something about it. You might want to minimise automatic billing to your credit card.
