Amount deducted even after 12 months

Sightsavers representatives approached me for the cause and I agreed to pay for them but it was agreed only for 12 months. The representatives also assured that after 12 months the amount won’t get auto debited. But I came to know it was fake after the deduction continued. No one took responsibility and they dint even care as they were getting my money. Even if it’s for a good cause it should be done honestly....

The complaint is marked as resolved when a company has responded to the complainant, addressed his or her dissatisfaction, and came to an agreement where both parties agreed that the complaint is indeed resolved. However, a complaint can be automatically marked as resolved if a complainant isn't responding or updating a complaint for 30 days after the company has tried to reach the complainant.

ECS continuing after mandated period

I had given a ecs mandate for 12 months and 750 rs to the representative of the sight savers ngo. But this ecs mandate is still continuing even after the completion of the term. Misusing my mandate is a serious offence so i beleive that sight savers will refrain from doing such activities.

I hope this issue will be taken up seriously.

Thanks

On realizing it i immediately i wrote a mail the customer support to cancel the same as i would not be able to donate that amount every month. I am not in a position to provide monthly basis.
