Cannot manage or cancel pre-approved payments

How do you cancel pre-approve payments now? The 'manage pre approved payments" button I used to be able to use now just redirects to an autopay page advertising things like spotify saying "Manage all your automatic payments in a single place" but there is no place to manage them. It no longer lists any of my pre approved payments ive set up nor any means to edit or cancel them.

This is the page it links to now : https://www.paypal.com/myaccount/autopay/

 

Screenshots of what i click and what I get:

Irritating that all of this site design problem was caused by their wanting to introduce basically advertising for vendors (from whom they are being paid) chosen over information for users.  Next they'll be virtually grabbing us by our ankles, turning us upside down and shaking us for loose change.

 

Works on Chrome but not Safari for me.

They actually hide the option.

To manage automatic payments, you can go to this url

I had success by doing the following: 

 

1. go to payments sent 

2. click into the last reoccurring transaction - if you have lots of outgoing PayPal transactions, you may need to search the biller name at the top.

3. click "view recurring payment details" on the top right

4. Select cancel which is on the "status" line. 

5. Check that the status now reads "inactive".

 

Hope this helps!

These people are enormous [Removed]. They purposely stop us from canceling payments so they make more money.

I just canceled everything, which could be found here: https://www.paypal.com/myaccount/autopay/connect
