Plusnet Mobile drew DD for a second number I was unaware of

[Maus]

I switched mobile provider in December and today received a bill from my previous provider PlusNet. After inquiries it turns out a second account was opened with my details two months after I opened the PlusNet account in 2016, and I have been charged at least £6 a month by direct debit for it ever since. There was only ever one direct debit set up for Plusnet, but both payments were taken from it! After going through my emails it does appear I have been receiving two almost identical emails every month, only the number is different - I thought the other email was a reminder, why would I check the bills were for two different numbers? There was never any mention of this second number when I log into my Plusnet account on the website, so I have been completely unaware of it for four years.

Plusnet have so far suggested it's my fault, I must have opened two accounts, and offered me an arbitrary £31. Basically, their first response was to blame me and offer a paltry compensation to get rid of me. I have not opened two accounts, why would I?, I have not used it, I was never aware of this second account.*

Is there anybody out there?

Hello Maus, did you resolve this issue. I am having problems with plusnet and my direct debit. Nothing as complicated as yours. they are blocking my internet because they keep stopping my direct debit.
