1/4 RESTKK on my bank statement: why? Should I fear credit card fraud?

Have you noticed a direct debit under the name RESTKK? RESTKK is a website that charges you for online services. These are direct debits recurrent. You are already, or will be charged by RESTKK each month because these debits correspond to a subscription. You have undoubtedly entered your bank card on a website to buy a service or take out a trial offer (on a dating or clairvoyance site? For cultural content such as streaming videos? For coaching ... line are very varied).

Is this a scam? If your bank card has been stolen and used by a third party, then yes it is a scam. If you made a purchase yourself, it is not card fraud. We tell you more below.

You don't remember having taken out a subscription? Maybe you just filled in your card as part of a trial offer? Or to pay for the postage of a so-called 'gift' that you have 'won'?

It may happen that subscriptions linked to RESTKK direct debits are not desired by Internet users: you should know that attractive trial offers often lead to subscriptions if no steps are taken to cancel the subscription.

2/4 Steps to stop RESTKK direct debits?

Stopping RESTKK direct debits is free. To do this, you must complete the termination procedures. You can do this directly online. The details of these steps are directly specified on their platform.

If you can't do it alone (because you are lost, because you do not remember the origin of the subscription, because you do not have the time or the inclination to cancel yourself or for any other reason), it is possible to get assistance from a termination assistance service provider. Our recommendation: I stop the costs!

This company helps you to identify the origin and the cause of the flows and to stop them definitively. Bonus: they can even help you get a refund WHEN possible (note: refunds are unfortunately not automatic, because they are really on a case-by-case basis. On the other hand, when it comes to stopping direct debits / cancel subscriptions, their services are guaranteed 100% effective or reimbursed.

3/4 Declare your card stolen to stop withdrawals RESTKK: legal or not? Bank / legal advice!

And on the side of Justice? : in March 2018, the Court of Cassation refused a cardholder to blame his bank following an online scam. Why ? The CDC accepted the culpable negligence of a customer who had transmitted his data to a fraudulent site. This court decision explains why your bank could refuse to block your card / consider a refund of the sums withdrawn if you are responsible for the debits noted on. your bank statement.

If you have not lost your card, it is very unlikely that it is a card piracy as explained above: to block the card would therefore amount to not honoring the contract that commits you to the company that charges you (title; RESTKK). We therefore do not recommend to renew your but to carry out the online procedures to cancel the current subscription..
