not sure I understand? both? I had only one payment made through stripe this year?
I refunded the most recent stripe payment, and the one made a year before that, as it was not necessary to maintain your subscription. I also cancelled recurring payments.
Okay, but so far the credit doesn t appear on my cc statement, do you know how long does it take for stripe to do the refund? thx

As for the second question - the price is increasing over time, but I typically keep the same rate for users that they had at the time when they subscribed. It's a sort of way to thank users for supporting Gixen over the years, as the real (inflation-adjusted) rate drops this way (by staying nominally the same).

If you want the same (grandfathered) pricing for the future subscription payments please let me know.
The price of a new subscription does rise over time, once set up the price remains the same for that subscription though... So people with older (grandfathered) subscriptions pay less, forever. That's a result of a system set up, as I previously indicated, whereby payments are forwarded by the payment processor not requested by Gixen.
With that in mind, you must have some relationship with Stripe for them to continue to send payments on your behalf, whether or not they are sending you emails, or you are receiving them... It might be a good idea for you to try to contact them directly in order to sort out how you can also improve the relationship that you have with them.

Both Stripe payments are now refunded. I recommend you use paypal in the future. If you want the same (grandfathered) pricing for the future subscription payments please let me know.

as I said, stripe doesn t send any emails at all after payment /debit was made, and I can t find anything on their website how to stop the recurrent payment?
how am I supposed to cancel it as otherwise this is going to happen again next year?
and what do you mean by ?
If you want the same (grandfathered) pricing for the future subscription payments please let me know.

It's probably best to assume that an arrangement that you set up is still active, until you request it not to be, with the payment processor.
i have no membership with stripe? only with the cc I usned

You do get a receipt from the payment processor though, don't you ?
yes but you are company aren t you ? you never sent any invoice of any (I had to beg mario to send me one that he did MANUALLY (not even an invoice number???) nor email of payment received from gixen, which is THE reason why I only noticed now on my cc slip that the payment had been dont twice
why doesn t you system also recognize if a payment is made twice, especially since you send an mail saying that the membership is about to expire but yet don mention anything about the recurring subscription (means automatical renewa which would have prevented me to pay directly with paypal first)

Your subscription period does increase to reflect what you've paid for though, doesn't it ?
don t understand what you mean by that.
I paid once per paypal and was again one day later by stripe for 2026?

Post subject: subscription for 2026 was paid twice
I was charged twice for 2026, I wrote mails to Mario who is not answering any of these???
I first paid direclty with paypal (95N36705G5487105U), in the past I had issues with payment and the recurring subscription and wasn t aware the the recurring payment was still active, which means that another payment was again directly debited a couple of days later from the stripe payment (vĂsa cc) --> sub_1QvMJEH3UtQxmdJJN0Q2mtcM
a major issue on gixen that no one gets any official invocie from you and of course absolutely no email stating that the subscription was reactivated, even less the system having double charged!
Please refund the difference, also how can one deactivate the recurring subsscription, I see no links on the setting to be able to do this
