Why it shows up like this
Unreviewed registry note: The descriptor DISNEY PLUS BURBANK CA on your bank or credit card statement indicates a direct subscription billing transaction from The Walt Disney Company. Disney processes direct consumer memberships from its corporate headquarters in Burbank, California. This charge corresponds to an ongoing Disney+ subscription, which grants on-demand access to animated features and original series across popular Disney and Marvel franchises.
Unreviewed registry note: Cardholders frequently see this line item pop up after an introductory promotion ends. Mobile carriers and internet providers frequently offer promotional trial periods that silently convert to full recurring monthly charges once the promotion lapses. Charges may also change when Disney adjusts subscription rates or automatically renews an annual streaming plan that was initiated twelve months earlier.
