When registering for a £15 discount on my next trainline booking, I certainly did not realise that they would continue to withdraw £10 per month on an ongoing basis.
Only by reviewing my bill in detail did I pick this up. Total scam (although clearly within legal regulations) - the individual having to take the action to reclaiming money.
A brief excerpt from my recent call with the company:
'... It's not difficult to claim the money back...', said the man on the phone - "... no it's not difficult, it's just bloody annoying that I have to claim money back in the first place - to have to print off a letter, fill it in, scan it, send it back to you, then wait the 10 days plus that it will take for you to refund my money. In my books, that's a scam - even if the law says it's not..."
Someone needs to take this to the consumer complaints commission...
