Please be aware talktalk have been setting up direct debits without my consent they took over from shell energy and i was having nothing but problems with them in July they tried to set up a direct debit for £100 but in the name of shell energy my direct debit has only ever been £19.07 per month so my bank cancelled the new one and also cancelled the one for £19.07 to be on the safe side so that means when i cancel a direct debit only me can set a new one up but i decided to pay talktalk manually myself until my contract ends but surprise surprise on the 14th November i get an alert from my bank regarding a new direct debit and when i look it is set up by talktalk and there is my talktalk account number at the side so my bank immediately cancelles it they said this is fraud and we are going to pass it to our fraud department for further investigation luckily i get alerted when a new direct debit is set up thank god i am leaving them on the 26th November i have also reported this to the ombudsman because there is clearly someone at talktalk committing fraud so please keep checking your bank account i can see that It has already happened to other people we have all got to be vigilant of this
