Sooo I was planning on cancelling my recurring donation around the beginning of last month. I went to my account upgrades page and saw that my recurring donation was already set to expire on March 16th. So I was like, "ok, cool, I guess I don't have to do anything." (And it didn't seem unreasonable to think that my recurring donation would automatically expire around this time, since, iirc, I first became a donator in March 2017, aka one year prior)
But obviously the 16th has passed and I still have donator status. So I went back to my account upgrades page to see if my donation wasn't cancelled or if there was just some crazy lag time on my account changing or something, and I noticed this:
The part that now says "April 16th"? It used to say March. Which means my donation is always set to "expire" one month after my last donation went through. Which means it doesn't actually expire -- the date just gets pushed back a month each time.
This leaves me with a question and a comment.
QUESTION*: how do I actually cancel my recurring donation? I tried checking the FAQs page, and it assured me that I can cancel a recurring donation, but didn't tell me how...
COMMENT: The "expiration" date on the donation status is a bit misleading in how it's phrased. o_o Perhaps that could be edited to something that creates less confusion...?
*DISCLAIMER: It is entirely possible that I'm being stupid and missing a very obvious button or link or something that would allow me to cancel my donation. I've been rather short on sleep lately. Please be patient with my tired Kag brain.
