This post has been in writing ever since I came to UK, got my own bank account, set up a direct debit and used my card for online subscription payments. Mind you, it has been a very unnerving experience since even after 6 months here, I am surprised when:
- a transaction occurs 2 to 3 days before the given date of a charge
- there is no acknowledgement or receipt sent by the company that has charged you a fee (which they will days before it is set to renew)
