Frustrating App To resolve the issue, I tried reaching out to customer support. The only way to chat online is through their mobile app—there’s no web option.

One agent outright dismissed my concerns, insisting I hadn’t set up direct debit—even though a previous agent had already confirmed that I had. When I asked them to check the system or review previous conversations, they refused and doubled down on their claim. When I requested to speak to a manager, the agent abruptly sent a generic “We haven’t heard from you” message and disconnected the chat, despite me having replied just a minute earlier and actively typing at the time.
