I think I wasn't clear enough that this is an annual subscription of significant cost ($300). With that in mind I would absolutely expect them to email in advance reminding me of the charge (other similar services do). I agree that for something that is monthly, I wouldn't expect an email every month.
Adding dates to the calendar and using giftcard/credit card are both good suggestions for the future.

- fma 7y agoThanks. I used to use virtual cards from Bank of America and Citibank but looks like it's just an after thought to the big banks now...
- cpv 7y agoDo you know a similar service outside US?
- andimm 7y agoYou can get virtual cards and virtual disposable cards with Revolut but it costs a little fee or it‘s free with the premium/metal subscription
- algorithm_dk 7y agoRevolut's disposable card is awesome. I use it constantly.
- veb 7y agoIn New Zealand we have debit cards, so they act just like a normal credit card, except it needs to have money in the account for the transaction to work. So you tie it to an account that you put money into, instead of say, your every-day spending account which could contain a lot more money.

- jsgo 7y agoHere’s the way around it as someone who has subscribed: Cancel right after signing up for annual. Day it will terminate or day prior, can’t remember which, you’ll receive a “hey, don’t let your access expire” email and then you can either sign back up again or let it lapse.
