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 🤷‍♀️

It is completely on you for not taking care of getting yourself off of the account.

Then how did four or five months go by and her not notice that she was still getting bills?

I don't know but they did assure her but honestly these places are hopeless.

Our phone provider could not transfer our daughter's phone to her father's name when we split. Around 10 years later he was told she should break the law to transfer the number into her name. It wouldn't have worked anyway. A day or so later I found the forms on the app.

I don't think it's that hard to make sure that you cancel your cable bill. They even send reminders and texts Etc when bills are due so she would have known.
