That's all fine and good but I want to point out so everyone can watch out for this - sometimes if you have a subscription and your card expires or gets lost/stolen and replaced, companies can somehow get your new card info without you giving it to them and keep your shit active. So you can't assume that a new card will take care of old subscriptions that you totally forgot about. You have to check your statements.

That's some bullshit. I hate that they can do that. They spin it as a convenience but I'd rather update all my accounts with the new card manually.

That sounds an awful lot like credit card fraud to me!
