How do I get double billing removed from my credit card when I only have one renewal?

    Check whether the charge is actually a duplicate first:

    1. Sign in to the Microsoft account order history and look for multiple purchases for the same amount that appear close together.
    2. If only one charge appears in order history, go to the Microsoft account Payment options page and select Investigate to check whether another Microsoft account is using the same card.
    3. Review whether recurring billing is enabled on the subscription. A recurring subscription can create an expected renewal charge.
    4. If a previous payment failed because of insufficient funds, Microsoft may retry the payment later. That can make two payments appear close together even when it is not true double billing.
    5. If the extra charge is not found in Microsoft account history, contact Microsoft Support.
    6. If the charge still cannot be matched to any Microsoft account, contact the bank or card provider, dispute the charge, and ask them to block further charges if fraud is suspected. Requesting a new card can help prevent more unauthorized charges.

    Please log in to your Microsoft account and go to Services & Subscriptions. Do you see the double charges there, and do they have the same description and amount?

    If it’s a monthly payment, can you also check if a payment was made last month?

    If there wasn’t enough money in your account last month, Microsoft will keep trying to take the payment. That’s why the missed payment and the next one might happen close together and look like a double charge.

    See 'I've been charged twice': https://support.microsoft.com/account-billing/i-ve-been-charged-twice-1370f860-c080-419a-8e77-a983389743a5

    If you're sure you've been double charged, you can cancel the duplicate subscription by going to Manage Subscription to get the refund: https://support.microsoft.com/account-billing/how-to-get-a-refund-on-a-microsoft-subscription-67dca30b-b323-44d5-acc2-e02f9902c472

    If you need further help or would like to have this double-checked, I recommend reaching out to Microsoft Support directly so they can look into it. Processing this requires Personally Identifiable Information (PII), which should not be shared here to protect your privacy and security.

    Make sure you are signed in to your active Microsoft account.

    Type "Chat with an agent" and press Enter.

    Click the "Contact support" button at the bottom.

    Choose the Products and services for which you need help.

    Follow the on-screen prompts to connect with a live agent.

    Or, select the "Call me back" option and complete the information so they can call you.
