The short answer
The registry records HISTORY Vault / Lifetime Movie Club as a possible interpretation of A+E GLOBAL MEDIA. This descriptor-to-company association has not passed claim-level evidence review. Compare the exact line, amount and posted status with your own receipt or account activity; the name alone cannot confirm the merchant or whether you authorized the payment.
The notes below are unreviewed registry explanations, not confirmation of merchant identity, authorization or current policy. Claim-level source review is pending for this entry.
Why does my statement say A+E GLOBAL MEDIA?
Unreviewed registry note: This fee appears when a promotional free trial ends or when an existing monthly or annual streaming plan automatically renews. Monthly plans generally bill at $4.99, while annual passes bill as a single payment of $49.99. Because A&E distributes its content across multiple digital ecosystems, transactions can originate directly from their websites or through connected TV channels on Amazon Prime Video or Roku devices. A family member adding a channel on a shared smart television is one of the most frequent reasons cardholders discover this unexpected charge.
