No wonder Amazon CEO Jeff Bezos is our richest billionaire (pre divorce)!

One of my quirks is that I save credit card chits and check them against my monthly credit card bills.  We have a Master Card and an American Express card. 

While going through this ritual I noticed that each account had a charge for Amazon Prime.   

I eventually got around to calling (for me, the only way to do it) Amazon and after much up and back I learned that somehow an “Introductory Offer” of Amazon Prime Video, which I never asked for (and which is included in our regular Amazon Prime annual membership) had expired in October and, not knowing of it, I had not affirmatively opted out, resulting in an automatic $14.11 monthly charge on my Master Card.  

The result of the call was the cancellation of the duplicative membership and the submission of a refund request.  

As I said at the outset, no wonder Bezos is so rich!  It’s Bezos Blingo!

How many people are as careful and meticulous as me?  

A word to the wise...
