Debiting my account without my permission

on Friday, 24 July 2015, I was surprised to see an unknown debit order on my bank statement with a funny name (DIGICASH /3SAJZ VCE DBN). I enquired what is it all about and DIGICASH told me they are collecting money for other companies they gave me the number of the Company - VC Enterprise. I called them and asked them why are they debiting my account without my permission. I don't even know them. The lady said their call centre does promotions over the phone,i want my refund, I also want to know how they got hold of my banking details.I DO NOT WANT TO SEE ANY DEBIT ORDER COME OFF MY ACCOUNT FROM THIS FOLLOWING REFERENCE,SCB SMART 6A-4438,LET'S CONNECT ***,3SAJZ VCE DBN .

Hello Chestnut Queen,

We appreciate you informing us about this matter and we'll aim to resolve your problem as quickly as possible.

We would like to inform you that Digicash is a debit order facilitator who facilitates the collections of our merchants' fees, from their clients.

The process is as follows:

1. A client enters into an agreement with one of our merchants
2. That merchant contracts DigiCash to collect their fees from the client's account
3. DigiCash's name (instead of the company with whom the client contracted with) appears on the bank statement, as mandated by the Reserve Bank.

One of our consultants will contact you shortly and we will then be able to put you in direct contact with the company who asked us to collect these funds from you, and this can then be resolved

Kind regards,
The Digicash Team
