Anthropic customer claims AI firm kept $3,900 after cancelling wrong account

A business customer of Anthropic's Claude AI reported a significant billing and account management issue. The company was accidentally double-billed by Anthropic, and when they initiated a chargeback on the duplicate charge, Anthropic mistakenly cancelled their active, primary account instead of the duplicate. Despite repurchasing the service, Anthropic only refunded the initial base subscription, retaining approximately $3,900 CAD for additional seats that were also cancelled. The customer expressed frustration with Anthropic's support, citing slow responses, an inability to resolve the error, and the risk of further account issues if another chargeback is pursued. AI
