Did you report the card stolen? I have never heard of charge forwarding. The number should not work. You need a new bank.

It's a new thing. The aim is so companies like Netflix don't lose subscribers when the subscriber loses their card and requests a new one.

The implementation is very shoddy - a mapping of old to new cards is distributed to any big provider who has charged the old card.

I believe the forwarding is only done if the card was marked as a replacement due to damage or expiry. If reported as stolen the forwarding shouldn't happen. Not sure what happens in the case of lost.

OP said they didn't report it as stolen so that might be the reason why the charges are being forwarded.

I didn't report it as stolen. But they did forward the charges. But yeah, I've just finished closing my credit card completely. It's unreasonable that I've been disputing the same charge from AWS for almost a year, and now they have decided to side with Amazon.

So what did you report to get a new card?
