Oh ack.

If you had automatic payments on LJ, and turned them off in the wake of Strikethrough, you might want to go over and check to make sure they're still turned off. Apparently people are complaining that the auto-payments on their accounts have been mysteriously turned back on without their consent.

They can't even go 24 hours without a new screwup, it seems.

I, for one, had auto-pay set up deliberately, and then just as deliberately turned it off. And as of right now, it was back on. I've turned it off again, received confirmation it's turned off again. It had best stay that way. I've printed the confirmation email just in case this time.
feeling a bit daft here, but when I go to the manage accounts area: http://www.livejournal.com/manage/payments/index.bml

all I see is what I have purchased and when it expires but no indictation of whether automatic payments are on or off?
Then you should be fine. When I went to that page, it said when my last payment was made and also when my next automatic payment was scheduled.
thanks
ok, now im not so confused XD
I asked burr86 about the people who turned off autopayments and HAVE NOT made manual payments since then - as he is saying that they are accidentally turning autopayments on instead of making single manual payments.

He says,

Ask them to file a request with our Account Payments team (at http://www.livejournal.com/support/submit.bml?cat=accounts). I can't really give you an answer in general, because there is a different reason for everyone, and the Accounts team can help those people figure out what happened.

If you're in this situation make it very clear that you have not made manual payments and it's still been somehow turned on, so we can see how they respond to it.
