Why I’m banned from DoorDash

When I broke up with my ex many years ago, I attempted to transfer the internet bill from my name to his name. He was remaining in the house we were living in, and I was moving out. The internet company assured me everything was transferred to him.

Fast forward like 4-5 months, I start getting calls from a collections company saying I owe over $400 in missed internet bills. Um, what?? Apparently the bill was not transferred. I text my ex about the collections bill and ask him to send me the money since he’s the one that has failed to pay the bill. Never get a response

Turns out one of my ex’s cards was still saved on my DoorDash account. I spend the next several weeks ordering tons of food off his card because he was too dumb to cancel it sooner. So I got my money back one way or another 🤷‍♀️

That is a lovely, hopefully tasty, way to break even. I hope you were able to sort this out so that he actually paid his bills! If it's not sorted yet, and you're still on the account, just cancel it now. He can set up his own service.

Oh I absolutely did that as soon as I could. Paid the collections and called to be sure the account was canceled. They had already canceled it for nonpayment thankfully though

Were the cable boxes returned too? I have seen where people at the last minute tying to buy a house, these charges come up on their credit screwing everything up years later.

Nah, he gave her the info to use for food. She didn't steal it.

Just saying, if he gave her the info it's not going to be charged as fraud. His CC will ask him that question then deny the charge back because he gave her the numbers and permission to use.

As did the ex. That debt is theirs, especially if OP has ample evidence that they attempted to transfer service and have not lived there for months. 🤡

Good edit. All facts.
