I am posting here in response to a "no reply" email (and because the cancellation phone number isn't available in the evening).
I cancelled my PlusNet Extra broadband account by phone on the 5th of this month and was expecting it to complete today. This afternoon I received an email titled "Important: About your cancellation request", some of which is quoted below, which has rather confused me. Perhaps someone here can shed some light?
Since I phoned to cancel the account on the 5th and PlusNet require 10 days notice, I was expecting it to be cancelled today (the 15th). I trust I will not be charged for subscription up until the 26th?
No idea what this is about, but I assume it's irrelevant since my account should now be cancelled and is no longer in use.
No I haven't - I never had a "broadband phone product". I hope I won't be charged for whatever this is?
Um... how much have I been charged then? The £25 cease fee has already been charged to my credit card. Other than subscription charges up to today (10 days after I cancelled), that's all I owe, right?
Speaking of subscription charges, by an unfortunate coincidence I happened to cancel on the day the direct debit went out, so I've already been charged for this month (5/9/2011 to 5/10/2011) and will be due a refund for part of it. If I now cancel my direct debit, will this stop the refund from taking place? Presumably a direct debit is not needed to pay money into my account?
Comments on any of the above would be welcome. I'd like this cancellation to happen without problems.

Hi there,
You won't be billed again even though the cancellation is happening slightly later than the 15th, so you've already paid the final charges. The reason things are delayed is due to the wait for the final payment to go through via direct debit.
ETA: I've refunded the cost from the 15th to the end of the month that you've already paid for as well.
Hope that helps explain things,

Thanks Matt, that has put my mind at rest.
Is it safe to cancel my direct debit yet, or should I hold on a while longer?

I'd wait a week or so to make sure you get the refund, but that's the only thing that needs to happen.
