Can they do that in Germany? In the Netherlands you can revert such "charge" transactions ("incasso") up to 13 months after they happen. Also, over here every subscription becomes monthly cancelable after the first year.

You probably need a reason to revert them?

Up til 8 weeks the bank will just carry out the reversal without asking any questions. This is done by just pressing a button in your banking app.

After 8 weeks have passed you will indeed need to supply a reason.
