Anyone know what this means on a bank statement 3-Maidenhead, Maidenhead, its for a small amount of money

If you havent purchased anything from a company named Maidenhead or entered into any kind of financial agreement with them, then call your bank and report a fraudulent use of your card. This could be a "test" purchase by someone whos gotten your account number somewhere -- and if you dont protest the small amount theyve withdrawn this month, then next month you might find your entire balance has gone missing.Call the bank NOW.
      Answer1:Maidenhead is probably where an office is for a company where you have spent money.If its a direct debit and appears alot, it could be something like insurance or billing for costs on a mobile phone?Or it could be a center of a company that you paid recently to use to buy something, ie weightwatchers sometimes have their collection centers in Maidenhead.I would call up your bank and they can tell you the actual date you spent the money- this will not show on your statement, only the amount will show. When you buy anything, it can sometimes take days to appear in your statement.
      Answer2:Its from the 3mobile store in Maidenhead.
      Answer3:Your bank should be able to tell you. As a long shot it might be a charge for a cash withdrawal you made from a machine that charges your account. Usually found in pubs,shops and motorway service stations. Personally I avoid them but I think they charge your account a pound or two for withdrawing your cash.
      Answer4:Call your bank immediately! There all sorts of scams going on right now. These charges are almost always under 1.00 and they are only testing to see if your account is good and then bam they will wipe you out! These people oculd have stolen your information from just about anywhere, its hard to tell where, but you need to get it changed quickly.
