Immediate ARB cancellation after creation in the case it was wrong?

I have to handle this case:

1) User registers for a recurring subscription which will set up an ARB.

2) User realizes that was not what he wanted

3) User signs up for another subscription that is not using ARB but a one time payment

4) I cancel the ARB subscription lets say after 30minutes it was created via API call

I assume that if I cancel the subscription before it was charged the first time when Auth.net does it batch processing at around midnight, the customer wont get charged, is that correct?

Should be. ARB charges are never generated immediately, just in daily cycles, so there's no reason why your customer should be charged if the ARB is canceled immediately..
