> Two of the transactions were with Netflix to register new streaming accounts.

I had Netflix and one day noticed I was billed twice on my credit card for Netflix service, one was OK but the other just appeared on my bill.

I used the online chat to talk to a Netflix rep who seemed unimpressed and not the least bit concerned (no frowny emoticon). I asked how a new charge I didn't authorize could appear on my credit card, she had no idea and just kept repeating the company line their system is unable to credit me, so I said but somehow it can magically take double the money? Nice.

Anyway, no apology, no concern so no Netflix.



In these situations, where it's pretty black and white, writing or emailing a senior executive, such as the EVP of Customer Relations (contact into on company website) typically will get the result you want.
