Busuu Started a Subscription Without My Permission

N. Demir's Thank You Message
The Busuu representative responded to me immediately by email, and I thank them for solving the issue in a very short time, like a day.

I would like to report a problem with a Busuu subscription that was accidentally activated through my Türk Telekom mobile line today. Even though I did not intentionally subscribe or knowingly authorize a membership, I received a text message from the 3699 service informing me that my Busuu subscription had been activated and that $7 had been charged to my mobile account. As soon as I noticed what had happened, I canceled the subscription the very same day.

Although I canceled the subscription on the day it was activated, I do not accept being charged for a service that I never intended to purchase or use. I immediately contacted Busuu by email about this issue, but I have not received any response.

I request a full refund of the $7 charged for this unwanted subscription. I also ask that the necessary measures be taken to prevent Busuu or similar mobile subscriptions from being activated on my phone line without my explicit authorization in the future.

They said they will refund the 319 TL subscription fee next month.
