Charged unauthorized fee from actitech limited

I signed up for a 7 day trial for $10  with a website called OMO that bills under Actitech limited. However when logging onto my paypal, I found that on Feb 6 they had not only charged the $10 but another $48 transaction that was not authorized on the very same day. Upon logging into my account on OMO only the $10 7 day trial was showing in my console as a subscription and the 3 month membership was not set to charge until Wed, Feb 14. 

Given that this charge was made in an unauthorized manner in addition to the agreed $10 I have now cancelled my membership and reported the charge with paypal.

A lot of times what happens is people accept a free trial for a product and forget to cancel. As a buyer you must agree to a billing agreement/subscription before a merchant can take a payment from your PayPal account.

If you don't notice during checkout OR don't cancel then it auto renews. Be careful what you are accepting.

Check if you had a subscription set up and cancel it?

I have been charged once and don't even know what it's for. So how can I find out about subscription or lack of it, please?

Hi kernowlass, thanks for the information.

Has the PayPal user interface been updated? I cannot find a "manage pre-approved payments" option, I did see "my subscriptions" and found that there are none listed. Does this mean this payment is not defined as a subscription?

Thanks!

I reported this to PayPal and within 12 hours I got an email saying they wouldn’t help me. Guess I’ll use Apple Pay from now on

They won't help if you had a subscription set up as when the merchant applies for the funds they are duty bound to pay it for you as per your subscription request.
