I switched Debit Cards around the billing period and was waiting for a new 1 , they say my payment never went in for DEC as the card was charged during the 5 day crossover, though I have a statement in my account saying £28.50 paid by me on Dec 4th . I pointed this out and was told the system makes an 'assumption' that the bill will be paid on that date and a receipt is automatically sent . WTF , this is as bad a system as Horizon.I was on the phone with a statement of my payment and the guy told me it doesn't mean I paid and why don't I understand his explanation lol .Take from that what you will . This isn't accounting at any level I know.

Shoddy practices

@gavs82008 and they call it 'credit' carried over , if it was credit I wouldn't have been charged at all , Debit and credit are 2 diff things

One party’s credit is the other party’s debit.

Set a Payment PIN on your account so that no-one but you can buy memberships on it.
Check your bank accounts monthly for any other unexpected payments to Now.
That way you can at least nip them in the bud, while you and Now figure out whose fault they are.
