I cancelled the contract but the monthly fee was still withdrawn from my bank
Full Question:
Answer:
Typically, in a month-to-month contract, it is renewable each month, and continues in effect until one of the parties terminates the agreement according to the contract terms, which often specify that advance notice of a certain amount of time must be given.
Whether you are entitled to have the money returned depends on whether you properly terminated the contract before the payments were applied and whether you authorized the automatic withdrawals. I suggest reading the contract terms regarding cancellation. If someone orally agreed to cancel it, it would be a matter of evidence for the court to interpret. You may want to contact the state attorney general if you suspect a lack of fair play, as some states have special consumer protections for these type of agreements.
