Sent your letter and still got debited? Here is what to check and what to tell your bank.
Most of the time the notice came too late or went to the wrong place.
Your bank stop-payment notice should reach the bank at least 3 business days before the next debit. A debit already in process may still go through.
Use the app's support email or in-app chat. Keep a screenshot or a copy with the date.
Ask your bank to put a stop payment on that company name for future debits. If you called, your bank may ask you to confirm in writing within 14 days. If it asks and you don't, the stop can lapse, so send it right away.
