Backstory: Amazon offered a 12 month 0% APR deal on something, we signed up for it through her Amazon account but the name listed on the card ended up being my first name and her last name (no idea why, assume something went wrong there obviously).
Fast forward half a year and we've broken up. She agreed to pay the Amazon bill if I continued to pay her cell phone bill (we got a contract together), they both came to around $80/month so it seemed fair and easy.

Well today she texted me saying that I needed to pay off her phone in complete so she could get an upgrade and I said no. Find out she paid off the rest of the Amazon card in spite with my debit card that's connected.

Did I technically consent to that or can I take her to small claims court?

This. And dispute the transaction and tell them it was compromised so you can get a new number

I mean, is the account hers and yours, or does she just have access to it? You might have a case if only your name is on the account.

There are quite a few poor financial decisions going on in that opening post.

I forgot I had it on there, which is my bad
And I will dispute it now, slipped my mind. Thanks

I did think about shutting her phone off, but I wanted to examine my options first

The Amazon account was hers. The credit card had my first name and her last name which complicates things, was not intentional
The bank account she used to pay with was mine and she had no link to it except it was added to her Amazon (through my debit card)

A little over $200
