I signed up for Proton prepaid a while ago and decided the best way to cancel payments was to simply use a masked card with a purchase limit on it. Big mistake. When my paid period ended and a second transaction failed to go through, Proton simply locked my account and all its emails until I prepaid again. I did so, and then I immediately canceled further payments.
