On 31st July I had a charge of £7.46 (plus £1.50 Debit Card Service Charge) for an item I purchased online - Dazzle White Max tooth whitener.
I received the order (which was very poor and does not work) and put it down to a mistake on my part.
A few weeks later, whilst checking my bank statement, I noticed 3 unauthorized withdrawals...
22nd August Whitesmile 888-227-2950CY £36.55 plus £1.50 D/C Service Charge.
24th August Vh Access 888-332-2707CY £2.01 plus £1.50 D/C Service Charge.
29th August Healthmember 888-779-5303CY £4.53 plus £1.50 D/C Service Charge.
All totalling £47.59.
I contacted my bank immediately, who put a 'stop' on my debit card and passed the details on to their fraud investigators.
Their enqiries led them straight to Dazzle White Max, who are responsible for these 'companies' in Cyprus having my bank details and therefore, withdrawing these monies without authorization.
Unfortunately, it appears that this is something I must take up with the company and as I am in England and the company is in America, it's going to be very difficult to get satisfaction in this matter.
I will also add that I am disabled and on benefits, so the money taken from my account has caused me considerable hardship as I am now struggling to pay my bills.
