Debiting my account without my consent

<p>I had R400 credit with foshini after paying too much on my account. I get an email this morning stating my account os grossly in arrears and they have tried to contact me numerous times without success.</p> <p> </p> <p>Every time the foshini group calls me from their Cape town office I answer the call and no one speaks on the other side and then hangs up. NO ONE called me to say my account is in arrears. I even checked the number on google and saw it is the foshini group but figured it is their call centre as I cannot call the number back.</p> <p> </p> <p>On further investigation i find that my entire R400 credit has been debited into me owing them money by a lifestyle magazine subscription I NEVER agreed to, and that I NEVER recieved. The magazine subscription was only cancelled on my account after my R400 credit was depleted.</p> <p> </p> <p>So please tell me how such a large company can just debit your account into you owing them money, when in actual fact they owe ME. Seems like theft to me.</p>

I spoke to your customer service department this morning already, they cannot reverse anything. They then transferred me to a different department that handles the lifestyle magazine subscription that was added to my account and obviously there was no answer and my call got cut off. very convenient, I want to speak to a person high up in foshini, this is unaccpetable to make me wait two days for you to give me answers as to why my money in my account just disappeared.
