Amazon review: Prime

I have been using Amazon for years without any problems. Also have been aware of Amazon Prime. Not an Amazon merchant so Amazon Prime is not beneficial to me. Have been avoiding subscribing to Amazon every time placing an order without a problem. Well until today. Place an order with (2) items like normal and have made sure not to click on Amazon Prime membership sign up. The order was placed. When checking the receipt email, found out that there are (2) orders instead of 1. Order 2 of 2 are the (2) items I placed. Order 1 of 2 are my Prime Membership confirmation with (30) days free trial. What the ...? I quickly tried to cancel the membership but could not find any link or button that would allow me to cancel. However, I managed to find the Manage Your Prime Membership page. On that page, I was able to stop my subscription in 30 days, but not to cancel it right away. Hum! I looked online and found articles regarding the FTC which has apparently filed a lawsuit against Amazon regarding this Prime Membership tricking issue by Amazon.
