    This forum is just a user to user forum, no-one here has any account access, if you are sure no-one else has access to your banking details, using any Microsoft account you may have, try using the steps they provide on this link to find out what that second payment was for.

    Then use the steps they provide on this link to cancel whatever that second payment was for and get a refund.

    1. Check whether both charges are tied to the same Microsoft account by going to Subscriptions and signing in with the Microsoft account used to purchase the subscription.
    2. Find the duplicate subscription and select Manage.
    3. Select Cancel or Upgrade or Cancel, then follow the prompts.
    4. If one subscription already shows Turn on recurring billing, it is already set to expire and no further cancellation is needed.
    5. For a refund, refund eligibility is checked after cancellation for Microsoft 365 Basic, Personal, Family, or Premium subscriptions purchased from Microsoft.
    6. If the subscription was purchased through Google Play, Apple App Store, or a third-party retailer, cancellation and refund must be handled through that provider.
    7. If refund options are not visible, contact Microsoft Support: go to Contact Microsoft Support, enter the problem, select Get Help, and then choose Contact Support.
