When a merchant uses a credit-card updater service to keep charging you after cancellation, they can't legally force you to pay. Your only real option is a lawsuit for what they already took. The contract doesn't protect them from your right to stop the charges.
You're kidding. Really? What? I didn't know that.
So, so you can't—
so if they sign a contract, you can't make them keep paying? You have to sue them?
You can sue them to get your money, but you can't make them keep paying you on a credit card. I had a company do that to me. I was like, I signed up, they didn't stop, they wouldn't stop charging my card. I was like, there's no contract, like, what are you guys doing? They're like, no, you signed up for our 12-month program. I was like, Oh hell no, no, no. And they kept— they were, they were hooked in with credit card updater, so they were finding out when I was updating the credit card.
No, man, I was like, no.
So I did it more. I charged back like 5 or 6 times. Finally, I just called the credit card. I go, cancel my card.
