What are my rights if my account was charged without consent?
RA 11765 §4(g) (Financial Products and Services Consumer Protection Act, 2022) requires financial service providers to obtain explicit consent for every fee or recurring charge and to refund unauthorized debits within 15 business days of written demand. BSP Circular 1160 makes failure to refund a recordable consumer-protection violation, and the Anti-Cybercrime Act (RA 10175) and Access Devices Regulation Act (RA 8484) may apply to credit-card or e-wallet charges.
A subscription charged me after I cancelled — what can I do?
A charge taken after you validly cancelled or revoked authorization is an unauthorized charge. RA 11765 §4(g) (Financial Products and Services Consumer Protection Act) requires financial service providers to obtain and honor consent for recurring charges, and money taken without a right to demand it must be returned under Civil Code Article 2154 (solutio indebiti). Revoke the standing authority in writing, screenshot the confirmation, then demand a refund from the merchant and dispute the charge with your card issuer under RA 10870 §18. Escalate to the BSP if it is not refunded.
How do I cancel a recurring subscription that keeps charging me?
Cut it off at two points: the merchant and the money source. First cancel with the merchant through its account settings and get a written confirmation. Then revoke the standing payment authority — for a card, tell your issuer to block recurring charges from that merchant; for an e-wallet or bank auto-debit, submit a written cancellation of the mandate. RA 11765 (Financial Products and Services Consumer Protection Act) and its BSP rules require providers to obtain consent for recurring charges and to give you a workable way to withdraw it. Any charge taken after you validly revoke is unauthorized and refundable.
