The expiry date of the credit card needs to be updated every couple of years. How can AOL keep charging a credit card if they don't have current information for it?

Credit card information is often automatically updated, the CC networks have services for that.

Are you sure this is a thing in other countries too? I think Visa and MasterCards issued in EU don't get auto-updated.
