First, try to contact the diveaustin.com via one of the support methods we listed below and inquire about the charge. See if they will refund it and cancel any associated subscriptions you might have.

If the diveaustin.com refused to issue a refund or you cannot get in touch with the company, call your bank or financial institution and open a credit card dispute.
