Livecareer.co.uk. This is a resume website which steals money through secret recurring bills to people's bank accounts.

They first lured me in by advertising themselves as "a free resume website". After I spent hours building my CV on their site, they ask for 1.45 pounds to download that. Instead of informing me of this 1.45 pound cost in the first place, they only tell me that after I finish building my CV, so that they could manipulate me with that sunk cost.

That was NOT the worst part. After spending the 1.45 pound I forgot about it, until today I saw a 13.5 pounds per month recurring bill from them that already took 27 pounds from my bank account. I checked my recurring card payment list (from Barclay) and there was nothing. It is so strange (and possibly illegal?) that they issue me a monthly recurring bill without my bank being aware of that, as if there were a new purchase every month. Moreover, they send NO notification email or text message about the monthly renewal cost.

To conclude:
1. They fraud people to waste time and finally have to spend money on their site.
2. They give you a 13.5 pound recurring bill for a 1.45 pound one-time purchase, and intentionally make it as unobservable as possible.
3. They do not inform or remind you of the recurring bill. Money taken from your bank account every month, NO message, NO email, so secretly that your bank does not even know it.

I am reporting it to as many agencies as possible. This is truly the most disgusting thing I have seen in years. How is a fraud like this still allowed to exist?

Desired outcome: The responsible staff in the company go to jail, and return the money they stole from people.
