I've had the Adobe Photography Plan for several years. I like Lightroom and have a large catalogue within it, but the plan is expensive considering the amount I use it. Saw a deal on a cheap serial number from a third part seller (£9 for 3 months) and thought I would give it a go, partly encouraged by confirmation that it is 'stackable' i.e. I thought when my current subscription ended the new serial number would kick in. After a long online chat with Adobe customer support it seems that isn't the case and if you have a subscription direct with them, there's no way of entering a product serial number.
So I think, I'll just turn off recurring billing and hope that the serial number still works come April when my current subscription ends, but (and this is the really annoying bit), there's no way to stop recurring billing, you have to actively cancel your subscription, but unless you do this on the day it's due to recur you'll be charged a cancellation fee. I find this very frustrating and it feels borderline scammy.
Rant over, questions for the UKC photographers
1. Has anyone found a way to apply a serial number when you've got an active licence with Adobe direct?
2. Is there a way to switch off recurring billing without just having to cancel the subscription?
