Can you explain to me how they get hold of these lists, does the processor have the right to sell them?

I ask because someone signed up to my site with a unique email address eg [email protected] and now they are getting spammed, they signed up over a year ago.

Now I have never sold or exporting the list of e-mails from Globill so how is this guy getting all the spam?

No wonder people don't want to sign up to sites if this happens.
Billing companies and/or you got hacked and someone stole the email list and is now spamming it.
