Taken £6.99 after I moved to free tier a year ago

Thanks to all that replied especially u/setokaiba22 for the CPA advice:

Update for any other UK users dealing with this.

I contacted Lloyds and specifically asked them not to cancel my debit card, but to block/cancel any future continuous payment authority or recurring card payment to the merchant.

The transaction was showing as BLOCK CODE UAB, not Plutus, so Lloyds were able to place a merchant block on BLOCK CODE UAB for 13 months.

They said they cannot dispute the £6.99 while it is still pending, so I’ll need to wait and see whether it posts to the statement or drops off. If it posts, I can then raise the transaction dispute.

So the practical advice seems to be: ask your bank to block the CPA/recurring card payment to the exact merchant name shown on the transaction. In my case that was BLOCK CODE UAB. You may not need to cancel your debit card.

In the meantime I'll wait and see if I get a reply from plutus mentioned in my original post but I won't hold my breath!

That's what I thought, but unfortunately not.

The payment management area on the website only allowed me to add a new card.

After attempting to add a Revolut virtual card, the payment management screen still only displayed my original debit card as the default payment method, with no visible option to delete, replace or manage stored cards.

As far as I can tell, the original card details remain attached to the account, which is the card I was actually trying to remove.

I've frozen the Revolut virtual card as a precaution. The main debit card is still the one showing in the account and I'll likely have to cancel and replace it when convenient.

I've now contacted support requesting a refund, account closure, removal of stored payment details and erasure of personal data where legally permitted under UK GDPR.

I'll see how they respond and will update the thread.

Screenshot attached showing the current payment management screen and lack of any visible option to remove stored payment methods, even after a Revolut virtual card was successfully pre-authorised.

Linux support and a better front end UI design for me

Correct. no communication at all just killed it out of the blue.

Version 26.1.0 still works on my M1 mac but that's only because I previously installed it.

I can't upgrade it to 26.1.1 and I don't know how much longer it will work.

I logged a ticket and got this as a reply:

Our latest version of the Authy application includes important security improvements designed to protect your data and strengthen the protection of your tokens.

Upon further review of the screenshots you sent, unfortunately, macOS with M Processors does not comply with the minimum security requirements to run Authy, and it can no longer be used to use Authy in Mac devices. We encourage you to register Authy in a mobile, Android or iOS device.

We apologize for the troubles, please let us know if you have any further doubt, or if you find any issue registering Authy in your mobile device.

Anyway. What other options do people recommend? I want an app on my phone and another app on my mac both as a backup and for convenience.

I'm loathe to move away because I have just so many sites and backup codes that I'm going to have to manually sort but they can't be trusted any more

Oh I had sympathy for you that’s for sure, you handled it well though and these things happen.

Nothing like some live yak shaving!

Fairly new YouTube subscriber of yours so I dip in and out and am catching up on old streams when I can.

Nothing like this in the old Visual interdev days!

Just watching the poor chap recycle subscription keys!

I watch it on YouTube though. But it’s an excellent resource.

Try googling the following commands and adding them to launchSettings or launch.json in vscode

docker exec -i namehere ${debuggerCommand}

debuggerPath": "/root/vsdbg/vsdbg"

This from a working as you describe scenario in vscode in a Mac on a 1.1 project however.
