Man debited for monthly account with R0 balance
Debit order days can be stressful and this is a perfect example of that stress...
As we hear of the release of the Apple iPhone 15, we also hear of one man's struggle with a repeat debit order.

Which we think is what happened here. But before we get into that, let's share some info into what happened to this guy.

Debit order dates are anything but harmonious for many people. It can be truly stressful when you see your money being debited.

"Owning an Apple iPhone is a trip. One minute, the users are happily dunking their iPhones in water; the next minute, they are stressed out because of how expensive it is to maintain one." (MSN)

What also surprised us was the amount of people that resonated with his circumstance. Some said they get charged ridiculous amounts with failed debit orders while others shared how they had the same experience.
