I don't have any advice to offer you but if it's any consolation, I've been there before too. I suspect that a lot of us have been there whether we'd admit it or not. I got badly burned and had to cancel a card just to get the recurring charges stopped.
Oddly, and I don't know why this is, but the bank/CC company wouldn't do what was likely easier for everyone - block that charge going forward. Their position was that I authorized it once and therefore I authorized charges in perpetuity regardless of the fact that I was telling them different.
After that incident, I refuse to give my CC number to a biller I don't know and trust. If I do want to join a site with an unknown biller I buy a gift card with a sufficient amount on it to cover the cost. It's more expensive but it's also safer. I did that once with a site/biller that I had burned me in the past and I watched as they tried to charge me for subsequent months all while ignoring my emails to cancel. The card didn't have sufficient balance on it to cover what they wanted but they tried over and over and over.
Fuckers.
Good luck with this. Let us know how you make out.
