- Someone else in the household. A partner or family member on a shared card is the most common explanation for a "mystery" recurring charge.
- A free trial that converted. Benzinga Pro's own sign-up flow involves a trial — the first charge is often the trial quietly ending. Set a trial reminder next time.
- A price you don't remember agreeing to. Subscriptions creep upward quietly. If the amount looks bigger than you remember, it probably is — see which services raised prices.
- Charged twice, or charged after you cancelled. Both are disputable. Contact Benzinga Pro first if you have an account; otherwise go straight to your bank — here's exactly how to dispute a charge.

Annual renewal charges are refundable only within 7 days of the renewal date; monthly renewals and discounted intro pricing are non-refundable — cancel before the renewal, not after.
