THIS IS A RANT. THIS IS ONLY A RANT. Nothing helpful from me in this post. HOWEVER, IF YOU KNOW SOMETHING THAT I DO NOT, PLEASE REPLY.
Foolishly, I missed the window to cancel my Adobe Stock membership without penalty. (But, hey, I'm the idiot that did not notice the $30US auto-payment debits until 3-months had passed.) When I attempted to cancel, it required $140US to end my membership. WHAT?! Hell no. So then the Adobe site offered me 3-months off. HOORAY!! But of course I've still got to payout month-to-month after the "break". BOO!
So, as the next $30US payment is sneaking up, I'm asked to make a website, and thought to change from Stock to Photoshop or Dreamweaver to make use of this "forced" membership. BRILLIANT! But the conversion will make the month-to-month amount increase to $50US. In the end, it feels like extortion to use anything Adobe because of the membership cancellation "penalty".
It is like.... "What? You thought you needed to poop, and you only needed to pee? That will cost you $20 to LEAVE without pooping."
Sucks. Hooray for FINE PRINT MEMBERSHIP CLAUSES at their finest.
Thank you for your time. Have a productive day!

Sorry about your situation but I just had to LMAO as this one was the funniest rant I've read yet. You sure seem to have stepped in a pile of it this time. Hope your near a garden hose.

Adobe Stock is separate from the Creative Cloud plans -- although you can bundle Creative Cloud with Adobe Stock for additional money.
Creative Cloud pricing and membership plans | Adobe Creative Cloud
US Dollars:
Single Apps = $20/mo
Full Plan = $50/mo
Full Plan + Stock = $80/mo

Make sure you use the credits you've accumulated before canceling Adobe Stock. It would be worse to have paid for those months and not have anything to show for it.

I got stuck for a gym membership once in a similar way a number of years back.

Hopefully the residual muscle mass obscured any persistent obsessive brain activity about the financial spill.
