Well I have to live, I didn't know what I was doing, so unethical these sites and they know it, hopefully it's just the one charge, I am pretty sure it is.
Your right about the offsetting also.0 -
Once you give your debit card details to a company you cannot get out of paying any charges they subsequently charge using those details by closing your bank account, or cancelling your card.
Though recurring transactions can now be cancelled through your bank

When you give your credit or debit card details to a company and authorise them to take regular payments from your account, such as for a gym membership or magazine subscription, it is known as a ‘recurring transaction’ or ‘continuous payment authority’.
These are often confused with direct debits, but do not offer the same guarantee if the amount or date of the payment changes.
In most cases, regular payments can be cancelled by telling the company taking the payments. However, you have the right to cancel them directly with your bank or card issuer by telling it that you have stopped permission for the payments. Your bank or card issuer must then stop them – it has no right to insist that you agree this first with the company taking the payments.
Be aware, though, that you will still be responsible for paying any money that you owe.0 -
Actually that is not correct, recurring transactions can now be cancelled through your bank

Try reading what pvt said again - if you just cancel your card and do not ask for CPAs to be cancelled then payments will continue to be made.0 -

So, do I just write them asking to cancel as I didn't receive a service, what else should I put in there?
Any tips here, have to be done tomorrow, hopefully might make it, already emailed them.?0
