Good luck with it. It sucks.
That may not work. I spent over 3 years working for Wells Fargo's Credit Card division. A closed account can still be billed reoccurring charges.

I very clearly remember the nightmares of iBill and DMR Internet charges. Customers often closed their accounts rather than contacting the billing companies to cancel the "unauthorized" charges. The next month...Another charge was added to their closed accounts.

I like Gary's idea and you can make some money at the same time. AMP has a good spam list if you want it.
