Is it Micro Billing Systems (MBS) that is attempting to bill you?
MBS has been reported to be a scam and it seems to be a UK only type thing. Here in the US, we have a similar type scam called Moviepass :-(
It is said to be spyware installed without your consent on your computer.
Prevx1 has been reported to remove MBS and the files that cause it (mbsmon32.exe): http://spywarefiles.prevx.com/RRHGDH22653626/mbsmon32.html
Prevx1 offers a free trial removal:

If the above fails, you could try the manual removal procedure here:
