> The problem with this is you can deny someone's service very easily

I can’t tell if you’re already saying this, but that’s a problem regardless of whether they suspend charges for your subscription at the time you’re locked out. They only need to ensure the suspension can smoothly be undone when you regain access.

It might be tricky if there are services being provided that don’t require you to log in to receive. But in this case it seems pretty clear Prime should not charge you if you also have no way to access it due to them blocking you.
