    That’s actually a “feature” you can opt out of with your bank. The banks actually send your updated card info to select merchants so you don’t have to manually go through and update your auto payments for everything… but also so they don’t have a subscription go unpaid. Convenient when you have a card stole, inconvenient when you want to cancel service with a difficult company.

      Authorizations are different from CC details.

      You can call a bank and cancel an authorization without canceling a card.
