Realistically you should be able to just have your bank block MO from withdrawing money. I've had to do that in the past, not with MO but with other stuff I was stupid enough to sign up for.

You mean that lifetime subscription to "Big 'Uns Online?"

I finally located an old email regarding the subscription to Motorcycle.com, and I discovered that it was set up through Paypal (I had always believed I had a direct subscription with Motorcycle.com using my credit card - ok, so I forgot). Even Paypal made it difficult to cancel the subscription, because thier instructions were simply incorrect. I was not able to go through any of the steps they recommended because the menu items in the instructions did not exist. Anyway, I found the actual payment by doing a search, and it then pulled up a subscription menu where I was able to cancel. Now, if I ever want a subscription to Motorcycle.com, it will only be the "one time" payment option. But I doubt I will even do that, as they offered me ZERO help in dealing with this problem. In fact, the only responses I ever received regarding this issue came from anyone who responded to this thread. That's it.

Well, at least you managed it. I too have had trouble getting stuff canceled through PayPal. Or for that matter, try to cancel an amazon order. Like the Borg... you must be absorbed.

Same thing has happened to me. And you're a "founding member," whatever that is. If you can't get out there's no hope for me. I'm just going to contact my credit card company to cancel the charges and block them in future.

I knew this place was going to ****e when the site changed....

Okay, I also found the Pay Pal instructions and it works. Here they are:
Cancelling Your Subscription
----------------------------------------------------------------

If you would like to cancel this subscription, log in to your PayPal account and go to the "History" subtab of the "My Account" tab. Choose "Subscriptions" from the pull-down "Show" menu and press the "Submit" button. Choose this subscription, and click on its "Details" link. You will be taken to a Transaction Details page from which you may cancel your subscription. Cancelling your subscription will immediately stop all future scheduled payments for this subscription.

Sincerely,
PayPal

Thank GOD!
