Subscription Companies Continue Charging After ACH Authorization Revocation
Consumers who formally revoke ACH authorization find subscription companies continuing to charge them and refusing to issue full refunds for unauthorized charges. This billing practice violates consumer protection law but companies exploit process complexity to limit refunds.
Lenders Continuing Bank Withdrawals After Borrowers Revoke ACH Authorization
Borrowers who formally revoke a lender's authorization to debit their bank account report that debits continue anyway, and that the company becomes unreachable through its own listed support channels. This leaves consumers with unauthorized withdrawals they can't easily contest through the company directly.

This conditions consumer control over financial data access on debt repayment, which the user argues violates their data rights.
Lender Continues ACH Drafts After Written Authorization Revocation
