tele billing

Turkey_cestrain

Hey Peeps,

First time user here.

After using some adult entertainment i called a number from a T.V channel on an adult line. They suggested that it was £1.99 a minute, hung up the phone on me after about two minutes.

Stupidly i have given my credit card details over the phone and they have billed me £45.00!!!

I have blocked my credit card, advised if the transaction clears on i will dispute it but may end up paying it.
My only concern is the repercussions if they have my details would they be able to set a recurring payment without my authority??
I haven't tried contacting the merchant yet but from what i read they are complete scam artists and i am really panicking now about receiving future bills. If i don't pay them will it effect my credit history?

Any advise you have for a really worried person would be great.

Thanks

This is very common, which provider was it?

Most importantly, was 2 minutes long enough to get your rocks off?

That is an important question however being money saving experts that we are, we should be asking... was it worth it for £3.98? :rotfl:

I think you need to speak to Jacquline Smiths husband as he is expert in these matters
