Payment refunded
My family and I have enjoyed watching our favorite racing and cars shows on Discovery. In particular, all of the Street Outlaw showscand their soin offs.
However, it seems that all were canceled. We waited over a year to see if any would return, but none ever did.
So we canceled our subscription only to have it charged again. After proving tge cancelation, out extra charge was refunded
User's recommendation: Save your proof of cancelation, you will need it

Verified ReviewerDuplicate subscription error
Already subscribed to the other Fire Stick or Spectrum TV. I wanted to get season 16 of Gold Rush and found it on my list included in one of my programs, so I wanted to cancel the request to subscribe me to Gold Rush to buy the season because I think it said season 1, and that's not what I wanted. So I wanted to cancel that request.
Preferred solution: Full refund
