| Take a deep look into your notebook! http://www.nickveasey.com/ He is an artist, and overdoes this a bit. So the terrific photographs are a bit complicated to find. But you see an airplane, pants, skeletons in a bus, and, yes, a notebook ........... in a really extraordinary way. The notebook, okay, that might happen, but to sqeeze the airplane into the camera... AMAZING! -- **** WARNING **** The web-hoster Globat.com steals money from your credit card account. If you are a customer of Globat.com, never give them any credit card information. If you can't erase the information, then do delete the old card and get a new one! **** WARNING **** |

It is true. They cannot charge the old card because that one was deleted by the card company. As Globat does not have the new card number, they cannot charge that. >But then, as I said, I doubt that it's true. > >Which could make for a good libel case. Actually it is a case of large-scale theft: a large number of small sums, which give a big total. Out of the blue Globat deducts sums of about 50 US-Dollars from the credit card accounts with their "automatic upgrades". ALSO (!) this "automatic upgrade" means that instead of charging about 50 US-Dollar per year, they suddenly charge the tri-fold sum from the credit-card. And THIS despite the fact, that Globat already owes money to the customer...! Confronted with the facts Globat refuses to answer. I can only warn all customers of Globat to do as I say. Or they will lose money. I wrote emails to the former owner of Globat, during whose time the first part of the fraud was done. He did not reply. No wonder, as it is him, who is responsible for the first part. And I guess that he did not tell the new owners, what was going on. The new owners are no better that him, see part two... -- Jeden Tag werden 6000 Mädchen genital vernichtet. http://www.ariplex.com/ama/ama_rr01.htm |

The credit card company never deletes the account but merely marks it as dormant. Since credit card debits are initiated from the debitors end, the amount will still be debited against the card. The card issuer will either transfer the debit to any credit card subsequently issued, or send the holder of the card a bill if no further card was issued (and their debt collectors if necessary). The only way to stop a continuous credit card authority is to write to the debiting organisation formally cancelling it. Writing to the credit card issuer is not sufficient in itself. If the debitor still debits the card then you have to recover you money from them, the credit card issuer has no liability beyond anything contained in your country's legislation. As far as the UK is concerned, although direct debits are covered by the direct debit guarantee (where the bank have to recredit any debits once the mandate is cancelled), continuous credit card authorities have no such protection. |

I should also add that relying on the offered credit card to go outside of its expiry date doesn't always work either. Many larger organisations have to ability to use a special expiry date code once the real expiry date has passed. Smaller organisations have to find out the new expiry date. Even today, one organisation still charges me $9.95 per month for a service that I haven't used for over 5 years, charging it to a card number that 'hasn't existed' for at least 3 years. And it would certainly have expired by now. The only reason I can't cancel it is that the organisation concerned doesn't publish either phone numbers or addresses - you have to do everything on line (and cancelling an account isn't one of the things you can do). |

| Re: Take a deep look into your notebook! On the subject of killing the ability to block charges to a credit card by canceling the credit card .... Keep in mind that, first, we are dealing with different legal jurisdictions. And, second, we are dealing with different credit card issuers. NO credit card issuer is REQUIRED (in the US, at least) to honor ANY particular charge; they can always deny a charge. But, that said, they can also honor any charge and bill the card holder, even if the card itself is expired (there normally is fine print in the "card holder agreement" that makes the card holder legally obligated to pay such bills ***IF*** they are issued). Bottom line ... two people can state diametrically opposite positions as to the consequences of canceling a card or notifying the card issuer to dishonor certain charges .... and both can be right. In their respective jurisdictions, for cards issued by their respective financial institution. |
