I had something similar happen years ago when my phone company sold my account to an unknown company that began billing me for text messaging. Something I have never used. I was unable to get a hold of the company and found it was an overseas operation. What I did was close the account and opened a new one. That slammed the door on them. I would recommend changing banks as well. just to be certain the new account isn't attached to the old one.
A word to the wise, don't supply your bank account numbers to anyone on line. Credit/debit card numbers are bad enough. And really watch out for free offers which are seldom free.

It's a possibility that since you pay bills online and most likely givin out your bank info eg: rounting numbers and acct numbers, that it's gotten out thru a hole in your security system or by any other means. If you have auto password or anything that auto fills in info on any form including places you pay your bills, then any hacker can gain access to that. There's always security issues with Windows and updates are almost always applied but sometimes after the fact.
Another possible thing is...if you ordered anything on a trial basis and didnt look at the small print or uncheck any box checked then it might be there. It happened to my mom. She ordered something where she only had to pay 1.40 something. Next thing she knew she was getting 24.95 taken from her acct. I called them and they said that she ordered it, I looked and saw what happened. Luckily the company refunded her money after I explained that she didnt realize it
and she's on a fixed income.
You need to contact your bank and have them put a stop on that company deducting anymore from your acct. Then the bank will (or should)send the company a letter asking for a refund of all monies paid. This way you wont have anymore taken out.
The odd amts deducted may be their way of checking to be sure your accts still active. If they are a fraudlant company and they know what they are doign is wrong, they check to see if its open because they have gotten over 100.00 illegally from an acct with no one stopping them. They will continue until you put a stop to them.
Good luck
