It's not a big amount, but I can't stand their sneaky way of billing the wrong currency without their consent.

Did you dispute the whole amount, or just $5?

Thanks!
Check the t&c of the specific contract you signed to make certain that you did not consent. Many of the things people think that they didn't authorize, they actually did.
