    money taken out of bank account for phone insurance
    I am currently with T-mobile on a monthly phone contract and they are charging me 7.99 per month for insurance, Just noticed it on my bank statement.

    Can I go to the bank and ask them to cancel that payment?

    It depends - did you authorize it?

    If not, ring your bank and say you didn't authorize it.

    Also, how did you purchase the phone/contract, and when?

    You can usually cancel in the first three months I believe. This was the case with my girlfriend's iphone insurance with Tmobile.
