Several points,
1) if I purchased enough off the internet I might take prime
2) are they really allowed to retain my card details and sign me up using that card?
3) I definitely haven't given them permission to do so
4) they obviously do this because the last time I bought something through them, they didn't even ask for my card details!
5) how do I get them to remove my card details?

1) Log on
2) Open "Your account"
3) Scroll down to the last box - "Membership & Subscriptions"
4) Open the "Membership and Subscriptions" option
5) This will show whether your membership is 'active'
6) Toggle 'membership options' for options
7) If active, will show membership expiry date
8) Click 'Advanced controls' for further options re credit cards
Remember you can cancel subscription at any time and still retain existing benefits. I want mine for tennis but every time I renew for a year I immediately cancel it so it does not auto renew. I think the only way you can remove your credit card is to close your account rather than have it in limbo. When you open an account they ask for a credit card so those details are retained so you cannot have an account without credit card details being held. Unlikely but if the credit card is about to expire you could choose not to update the expiry details to get round it!
