If only I could score them ZERO.
Sneaky reactivation of a direct debit from my mums account. She moved out of and sold her house to move into a care home almost 2 years ago and has dementia, how can they possibly issue a renewal! Disgraceful.

Dear Dex

Your mother was on an auto renewal plan. We could not possibly have known of her condition or when she went into a care home as we were not notified of this, so her plan then was automatically renewed at the end of the term.
As soon as we were contacted, we cancelled her plan down and issued a refund.
We are genuinely sorry of any distress caused but were unaware of any of the circumstances you mention.
