About this listen

Did you know the average household is paying for four to eight subscriptions they've completely forgotten about? This episode, Maya and financial counsellor Dr Linda expose the two deliberate tactics companies use to keep money quietly draining from your account — and walk you through exactly how to take it back.

You'll learn how to run a 3-month bank statement audit, decode charges listed under holding company names you don't recognise, use Dr Linda's three-question test to decide what stays and what goes, and find out if your utility provider owes you money right now.

YOUR BABY STEP: Open your bank app. Go back 3 months. List every recurring charge. For any name you don't recognise — Google it + 'subscription'. Cancel anything that fails the 3-question test. Then call one utility provider and ask about your rate and any account credit. You might find twenty dollars. You might find ninety. Either way — that's your money.
