    Is it a joint account? Are you sure it's not your wife that's registered?

    If so, contact your bank and tell them that you have an unauthorised transaction (make sure it's not your wife first though.....or you could be in for some embarrassment as the bank can trace it).

  • Thank you. don't always think it is my husband, but he also says thank you.






    from you.

    Someone presented your card details to them. You will probably never find out how or why.

    Phone your bank and ask them to cancel it and reclaim it as fraud.

    And next time dont let the wife see the statement ;)[/QUOTE]

    I would contact Adult Friend Finder and find out who registered on the site, with your card details.

    Take a look at the house, and ask who would do such a thing, also today is friday so maybe entered mon/tues.

    I had a similar thing in the past, was at a house staying overnight. A few days later found that Adult Channels were being paid for by my debit card. Rang them up and ask how this is so as i did not have sky, nevermind the option to purchase channels. Cash was not refunded in the end. Just too much hassle.

    I was a bit dim back then, thought it was done by putting debit card into old sky boxes etc, but you had to ring up with the card etc.
