I closed my credit card account with BoI about 3 months or at least so I thought. Anyway yesterday I received a new bill which had a new charge on it, from a company that I have been using for credit card protection. It was set up as an annual charge on my now closed BoI CC
My question is , is it legal for BoI to still allow companies to charge to your closed credit card account?
I ran them up and they said they were legally obliged to accept payments on direct debits etc. but this sounds a bit strange to me.
My credit card account does seem to be closed as I accidently tried to use it for an online purchase and it wouldn't accept payment.
I just find this situation a little strange, and if anyone has any advice or has experienced this situation I would be interested to hear.
