Ozwin Posted 20 April 2009 Posted 20 April 2009 From a dodgy looking site called 'LocalBilling.com' they took it out in two payments, one was £17.95 and the other was £35.95 and I have never used that site or even heard of it in my life. I'm majorly pissed off. You reckon I've been hacked or something? I'll ring the bank in the morning, what a piss take.
lavrentis Posted 20 April 2009 Posted 20 April 2009 Just been on the website and looked at what they are. Even after reading it, I still don't know what they are, look here.
Ozwin Posted 20 April 2009 Author Posted 20 April 2009 I know, it's well dodgy looking aint it? Looks like the sort of site that comes up in pop ups. I'm so angry, how the **** have they got my details?
Libertine Posted 20 April 2009 Posted 20 April 2009 Did she get it back? Thankfully yes. It wasn't a company like with you. Some random twat in Bretby or something.
Matt Posted 20 April 2009 Posted 20 April 2009 Sorry to hear that. I know fook all about these things so can't really suggest too much, just phone the bank a.s.a.p in the morning. go from there.

It looks like some sort of card payment interface.
Ozwin Posted 20 April 2009 Author Posted 20 April 2009 Nope, I went Alton Towers in the week at took £40 out for it. Then bought a Pizza deal from Pizza Hut for £15. And all week my Account Balance and Available Balance have been different, making me think 'wtf is going on here, I havnt bought anything' I havn't got any bills or anything to pay for either, my account should be £53.90 higher than it is right now. The ****s.

lavrentis Posted 20 April 2009 Posted 20 April 2009 Im bored so take a look at this, it seems to be a dutch company in charge of other companies. here
Ozwin Posted 20 April 2009 Author Posted 20 April 2009 I don't think so, i'm only 19, I don't pay bills or have anything that automatically charges me just yet. it's well weird, I feel like I've been abused..financially. ;_; And I still don't believe that site is legit for a second.
Daggers Posted 21 April 2009 Posted 21 April 2009 19, huh? Sounds like a case of the porn to me. Drug-fuelled porn, I've seen newspapers - I know the score. This is what comes when drinks are given away for free for boob-flashing. Makes me sick. I bet illegals have something to do with this too.

AmericanScott Posted 21 April 2009 Posted 21 April 2009 I feel for you man. I'd go absolutley mental if that ever happened to me. I hope you get it sorted out. If not, Watchdog time.
Head Honcho Posted 21 April 2009 Posted 21 April 2009 There's another site that does this. Beware when buying anything online and being offered free train tickets and the like! I bought some train tickets on thetrainline.com and stuck in my details for some freebies-the next thing I know I'm paying them £10 or £20 a month to be a member. I complained and got the money back straight away-they're basically a bunch of chancers feeding on people's ignorance. It was only when the missus payed the credit card bill one month that she noticed it-I'd missed it for 2 months.
Unit Posted 21 April 2009 Posted 21 April 2009 Least it's not 2k like my Ma.Cunts. My mam had her overdraft maxed out to 2k for a holiday in mexico city. Bank were really good and got the money back within a week

Ozwin Posted 21 April 2009 Author Posted 21 April 2009 Buy porn? no. I rang them up and they asked me what my banks street name was, I didn't know and they put me on hold for like 3 minutes. I couldn't be arsed to wait and cut them off. Anyone know the street for the bank in town? Where all the busses go past? Can't for the life of me find it online.

Hmmmmm, a street in town that buses go down... nope!
Ozwin Posted 23 April 2009 Author Posted 23 April 2009 Haha, forgot about this topic. The street was Town Hal Sq in the end, I couldn't remember it at all. Anyway, they're gonna send me a form or some shiz and treat it as a unconfirmed transaction, I think they're gonna give me my money back and if it turns out to be a legit thing then they'll take it back.
