I’ve been billed monthly on my credit card for Microsoft 365 for almost two years. I’ve tried multiple times to login and cancel the subscription, but am not able to. Seems my Microsoft email (hotmail) isn’t linked to the Microsoft 365 account I’ve been billed for?) I didn’t ever set the subscription up. Also, I’ve tried multiple times to contact Microsoft to figure this out and can’t get through to a person. No online “help” links have gotten me anywhere.
