Consumers have come to enjoy the convenience of subscription services. From software to food, to streaming platforms and more, we buy numerous products and services on simple subscription programs that offer exactly what we need with minimal effort and at manageable costs. As attractive as these services may be, they are very often renewed automatically, meaning that the subscription and the accompanying fee will continue even after the customer doesn’t particularly want them anymore.

This renewal usually comes at a higher fee than was initially offered. As a result of this practice, there has been a rise in class action lawsuits against companies that engage in it. Here is what you need to know, as a consumer, about auto-renewing subscription class action lawsuits.

Zelle is an extremely useful tool for making fast electronic payments. Owned by the seven leading banks, and supported by a further 23 banks, the app makes it easy for bank customers to transfer money to friends and loved ones. Many people even use it to pay for goods and services – although this is not the purpose for which it was originally designed.

Unfortunately, the app has prompted a fair amount of controversy recently, as many users have either fallen victim to one of several ongoing scams or have been hit with unexpected transaction fees. Dealing either with high bank fees or thousands of dollars worth of lost funds, consumers have complained to their banks, only to find them unhelpful and often unsympathetic. As a result, Zelle class action suits are being filed against major financial institutions across the country.
