Miserable Customer Service

Hi John, Thank you for bringing this to our attention. We're sorry to hear about the billing discrepancy with your Ditto order - being charged £180 instead of £9.99 is definitely concerning, and we apologize for the delay in response.

We've escalated this to our support team. Could you please submit your details here https://fastspring.com/consumer-support-form/look-up-charge/ and through the Trustpilot information request system so we can investigate this charge difference? This will help us properly match your review to your support ticket and prioritize resolution.
