It doesn't cost extra money to have additional Wi-Fi networks. You can have as many as you want, within reason. For example, you can install additional Access Points throughout your place to provide better Wi-Fi coverage.
If you are sure that you have removed the old modem/router providing the old Wi-Fi network, then your device(s) may simply be showing the old network as a recently joined network. You can tell the device to "forget" it. Google forget wifi <os>, where <os> is either windows, osx, ios, or android to find instructions for removing old networks from your devices.
