Did I miss the memo about automatic Livejournal payments? Because I had no idea that my account status is set so I am to be billed automatically for my paid account every six months, until I quite randomly clicked on my account status while trying to find something else. Either I have been extremely vague about keeping up with site changes, or LJ is pulling a fast one. Yeah, I can turn automatic payments off, but the default setting seems to have them turned on. Which I think is a little bit sneaky.

I just checked, I'd set mine at manual payments last time I renewed and that's still how it's marked at the moment. Glitch on lj's end in your case? I have no idea.
Grr. At least you caught it before lj billed you.

Arg! I hate it when sites do that. It is so not groovy. I pay for my LJ with checks, so I can't say if this is an automatic thing. Very uncool, though. That shouldn't be the default.

Naughty LJ. It's a good thing you caught it!

Eep. That's a little spooky... Anything that tries to take money without so much as a by-your-leave just isn't right. Good thing you fixed it. =)

Yeah! Not that I wouldn't have paid for the account anyway, but it just seems a bit underhand. I just wonder how many more people will be caught out by it though, because I am pretty certain that last time I paid an automatic payments feature didn't even exist.

You're right! When last I paid there was no automatic setting. I was due to renew on 09/09 (my birthday) and I've just checked and I'm now paid till 08/12. So not cool.

Arrgh. I knew it was fishy, because I am certain I didn't click any button marked 'automatic payments' last time I paid. Are you going to complain? I am... not that I think it will actually do any good.
