What's the chances on getting my money back..

[esoteric]

Just logged into my online banking after a checkout process went weird and wanted to see if money had been taken, that's when I noticed £20 being taken by my gym. What's wrong about that is I last went to the gym Dec 2015 and on my last visit I cancelled my membership.

So for a year and half unbeknownst to me they have been taking £20 which by now has amassed to £360.

You don't check your bank very often then? How can you not notice £20 being charged by a gym every month?

How can you not notice someone taking money out each month for a service you dont use For a year and a half?!

No I don't check my statements, they go straight into the shredder and I rarely use my online banking. I have no reason to look at them as I have no debits, or thought I had no debits.

How is the money being taken? is it Direct Debit?

Yes.

So I've been to the gym this morning and spoke to the owner and told him what happened. He wasn't happy about the amount of money nor happy with the bloke who I spoke too about cancelling. He assured me I'd get my money back or I could have "free" membership until the sum of money is used. I've asked for the money back and he has cancelled my debit himself.
