***** - Debited with airtime amount never requested or used by me for a period of 9 years!

***** on my account for a period of 9 years (May 2009 to April 2018). I have been debited for airtime which was not my airtime - I have never bought nor used airtime. This has been reported numerous times to Markham via telephone calls and emails yet I have not received a favourable response.

Markhams has admitted to the mistake but has refused to put the money back into my bank account with interest - money which was debited to my account **********ly by Markhams. They have said they will give me credit on the account! This is unacceptable! The money needs to be paid into my bank account with interest at a rate of 10.5% as the account was paid out of an overdraft facility. My emails have been ignored to date.

I will report this matter Consumer protection, the Ombuds and take further legal action if my matter is not resolved within the next two weeks.

I have been contacted by one2one and Markham's. There is an interest payment outstanding that is due to me. One2one has said I should speak to Markhams, Markhams has asked me to deal with One to one. I think this is ridiculous. My query is simple, I paid this account out of an overdraft facility. I was paying an interest rate of 10.5% and would like my funds back with interest of 10.5%. If I had not paid the account, Markhams would have charged a ridiculous interest rate of 21%. Please understand from my perspective. This is *****! I did not sign any document with one2one. I have queried is for years. My money has been sitting with Markhams accumulating interest on their own behalf, money that was taken **********ly from me. I would like the money paid back into my bank account with Interest. I think its time I report this as a ***** case and report this matter to Consumer Watch as One2One has refused to assist me. Markhams has refused to assist and have said I need to speak to One2One.

One2One has now settled. the money has been credited to Markhams. I have emailed our banking details to transfer the money back into our bank account. The email was sent to ********** We would like the money transferred immediately and confirmation thereof. I need to be contacted by Markhams to ensure this action is being completed as this is what was discussed previously. The funds need to be transferred back into my account. I await an urgent call from Markhams.
