Rescue, United States
Today, I called Costco to ask them not to renew my membership because of financial problems. The man on the phone spent 30 minutes telling me why I'm a fool to leave and I ended up with a renewed $55 membership and 25 minutes over my minute allowance. FML

Seems that maybe the root of your financial issues is that you can't say "no" to people. You're probably a wet dream for telemarketers, OP.

It's not automatic. You didn't have to call them.

You're welcome to use some of my favorite lines: "That's not going to happen." "What part of the word 'no' do you not understand?" And if that isn't enough, "That's it. Please transfer me to your manager, now. I want to report your behavior."

I'm sure the manager is going to be furious his employees are talking people into purchasing memberships to his store.

I remember Comcast service spending 20 minutes trying to convince me to leave their cable plan. if it were any other situation, I would've dropped the call, but I needed cancel it regardless. I'm guessing the Costco employee could've gone all day, and unfortunately for the OP, they got guilt tripped

I work there. They don't renew unless you call or go through the register to renew. Not saying YDI but sorry you had to deal with an asshole marketer.
