Charged After Cancelling ImLive

ImLive bills against a credit balance rather than by subscription, so there is no membership that could have failed to cancel. A charge that keeps arriving is almost always automatic recharge quietly refilling that balance — and because it fires on balance rather than on a date, it looks irregular enough to be confusing and regular enough to feel like a subscription.

What is actually happening on ImLive

ImLive is a long-established per-minute platform with an optional recurring membership tier alongside the credits. A repeating charge is either auto-recharge or that tier, and on an old account it is frequently a tier subscribed to years ago.

Auto-recharge is the charge

Find the auto-recharge or auto-reload setting and switch it off. It exists to remove the one natural brake in a per-minute system — running out of balance — and it converts a series of small decisions into one decision you made months ago and have not revisited since.

ImLive layers optional recurring membership tiers on top of credits, and those tiers rebill independently of any credit spending.

Why the amounts vary

Auto-recharge fires on balance rather than on a date, so the charges arrive at uneven intervals in identical amounts. That pattern looks like neither a subscription nor ordinary purchases, and it is the fastest way to identify what is happening from the statement alone.

Charges that land after the show

Per-minute sites often authorise at the start and settle at the end, so the amount that lands can differ from anything you expected and can arrive a day or two later. That is not an error, and disputing it as one usually fails. Check the session history before assuming the charge is fraudulent.

Per-purchase discreet charges on the statement.

The evidence to keep

Whatever the cause turns out to be, keep three things: the cancellation confirmation with its date, a screenshot of the account page showing the subscription as inactive, and the full descriptor text from the statement. A chargeback is decided on documentation rather than on account, and a bank that can see a dated confirmation against an undated denial resolves it quickly. Raise it with the merchant or processor first — going straight to a chargeback can get the account closed and any content you still have access to along with it.

Where the cancellation should have happened

No subscription to cancel; disable auto-recharge and remove saved payment details.

The charge that cannot come back

Every problem on this page exists because someone else holds a standing permission to take your money. A one-time payment does not have that shape: there is no mandate, no renewal date, no processor, and no second membership that can appear from a checkout you half-read. Selected Content is built that way — one payment, permanent access, unlimited downloads, new content every week, and a 30-day money-back guarantee.
