What should I do if Acorns keeps charging me?
Compare the new charge with the effective date on your confirmation. Then contact Acorns with a short timeline showing the request, confirmation, promised end date, and charge. Ask for a written correction and any refund due. If that goes nowhere, send the same records to your payment provider and ask how long you have to dispute the charge.
