Hi @ParisWood17   Unfortunately, this is how the one stop switch works. It is your responsibility to cancel the transfer. Somebody is trying to slam your line or has put in the wrong telephone number or address.

As @MightyQuinn has mentioned, I suspect that someone has made a mistake inputting your address @ParisWood17 in the One Touch System.
