When the "Oh Crap" Button Strikes: Cancelling Upcoming Payments
Let's say you accidentally signed up for a subscription to receive a lifetime supply of novelty socks (because, who needs shoes, right?). Here's how to stop that sock avalanche before it buries your wallet:
Tip: Don’t skip the details — they matter.![]()
- Channel your inner online warrior: Log in to RBC Online Banking or fire up the RBC Mobile app. It's time to virtually raid the "Manage Payments" section.
- Spot your target: Navigate to the upcoming payment you want to obliterate (figuratively speaking, of course).
- Deliver the finishing blow: Click the "Cancel Payment" button with the precision of a laser (or, you know, tap it with your finger).
Congratulations, comrade! You've successfully prevented a sockpocalypse.

But Wait, There's More! Dealing with Past Payments
Maybe you realized a certain streaming service is more "dust collector" than "entertainment hub." No worries, we can still potentially save the day (or at least your next paycheck).

- The Merchant Approach: This is where your inner negotiator comes out to play. Dial up the merchant (the company you accidentally enriched) and politely explain the situation. Sometimes, they're understanding and happy to issue a refund.
- The RBC Dispute Resolution Squad: If the merchant plays hardball, don't despair! RBC has your back. Head over to their Dispute a Credit Card Transaction page and follow the instructions. They'll investigate the situation and fight for your financial freedom (or at least get you a refund).
Important Note: This option is for unauthorized or incorrect charges, not just buyer's remorse. Be honest and remember, kindness goes a long way (even with banks).

Remember, Commando: Knowledge is Power!
- Time is of the essence: You generally have a limited window to cancel upcoming payments. Act fast, or you might be stuck with those novelty socks (or whatever your purchasing faux pas may be).
- Double-check everything: Before hitting that "cancel" button, make sure you're targeting the right payment. Nobody wants to accidentally cancel their rent payment (unless they're planning to live in a cardboard box... which, hey, to each their own).
With this newfound knowledge, you're now equipped to tackle any unwanted credit card charges like a true hero. Go forth and conquer, financial commando!
