  1. Wow these guys really are dodgy! I recently noticed that I had a DD coming out of my bank for £9.99 pcm. I googled the ref and found out it was for domestic and general. I rang them and the it seems that the policy was for a hotpoint dishwasher. I have never owned a hot point dishwasher! It gets better: The policy was not in mine or my wifes name and not was registered to my current or previous address! And get this - because I am not the name on the policy, they cant tell me what the name or address on the account is (but they can take my money)!! They say they are investiagting and will get back to me.... I have cancelled the DD through my bank, I know I should have checked my statements more thoroughly in the past but what with starting a new job, long hours a new baby arriving and moving house and city I dont have much time to paw through statements to see if some dodgy company is stealing from me. I believe this is related to an Indesit (owned by Hotpoint?) washing machine (easy to confuse with a dishwasher I guess) I needed repairing in Jan '12. I remember ringing Indesit and foolishly setting up some kind of extended warranty. I cancelled this and remember this being a major headache in itself. The details escape me as it was a year ago but as far as I remember it was sorted. The washing machine was not worth fixing and I had to get a new one anyway! So I have paid £130 for a policy that it is NOT in my name, NOT registered to my address, NOT for an appliance I have ever owned but may possibly have been set up in error for a washing machine that that I no longer have!!! Sorry - basically a bit of a rant, but I was wondering of anyone had had any luck getting stolen money back from these thieves!
