“Public Consumer Initiative” (PCI) in the Central Bank to accept applications with interest on the allocation of debiting money from citizens’ bank cards without their advance subscriptions to services.
According to OPI head Oleg Pavlov, it is not always possible to unsubscribe from services. It is for this reason that banks should contribute to resolving the issue.
Having failed to cancel a paid subscription, the payer attracts funds to the bank with an unconditional limitation of debiting funds. But there, instead of canceling protection against an unscrupulous recipient of payment for reissuing a card, unjustified difficulties and often additional costs are obvious – the continuation of write-offs.

DESCRIPTION of the large average complaints seen by auto-renewal. The problem is recognized in the State Duma. Back in March last year, MP Anton Nemkin proposed obliging online services that operate in the country to encourage customers to draw up contracts.
The Central Bank requires consideration of the application of the PIE, but for now it offers banks to users the ability to use applications in any application. Some banks have already been fully transferred to this functionality, for example, in the Post Bank, you can view the list of connected subscriptions in one window, but not cancel them.
MTS and MegaFon consider the initiative redundant, because you can easily cancel a subscription right inside the service. Aleksey Byrdin, CEO of the Internet Video Association, said that large Internet resources are returning clear and common withdrawals of subscriptions, and sometimes even paying bonuses and discounts to their users to keep them inside their services. Problems with unsubscribing, according to him, are found in single users. [Известия]
