I have been charged £4.50 for a game I haven't even purchased/subscribed to and I'm not willing to pay this! Called the number and the girl has stopped any further charges, but how am I meant to get the money back that has been taken?

@Lauren

To get your money back, just contact the company as before and ask for a refund as you didn't sign up to the service knowingly

You could also contact customer services and ask them to apply the following 2 bars to your account https://www.o2.co.uk/contactus

  • Bar all Direct to Bill Debits
  • Premium Bar (calls to premium numbers, 090, 070 etc.)

This would avoid this happening again..
