after getting a better offer for service from local cable company (time warner) on a bundled service, (cable TV, digital phone service, high speed internet) i decided to go with them. that involved transferring my phone service from ATT to them. at the time of transfer, acc balance at ATT was $0.00. however, ATT continued to bill me for four more months. each time i contacted them, each time i was told there was a mistake on their part and it was taken care of....... each and every time.... thinking (and hoping) they would have t6 get their heads out of their butts to do accounting, and they will catch their mistake, i electronically sent the full amount for four months of service total, $80.00 within two weeks i received a refund check for the amount from ATT (ATT refund ck# 6716417763 dated 07/01/2008) and a note saying "there must be a mistake.... you do not owe ATT any money." next month i got a collections notice from "money control" i supplied them with the info above. next month i got a collections notice from "collection bureau of america" same action from my end e.i. supplying info they need to check to see and verify. sometime later i got a collections note from "bay area credit services" same action. again few months later ....... i got one from CBCS. same thing....... which brings us to AFNI inc. i replied to their notice the same way. i provided them the same info that i furnished to collectors before them. with one exception..... they were at least honest enough to understand there was no balance to collect, they moved on...... not afni (in a way i am glad i don't have their nerve in my tooth) despite the info i have provided and my asking them not to phone (its a lost cause, you see i am deaf. i know they do because i have a caller id box) they keep itching. so. i filed a complaint against them at FTC, state attorney's office of every state they are licensed to do business, and every BBB office at every location they have a physical address and/or or box number. this slime ball outfit willfully ignoring laws that are setup to protect a consumer by setting guidelines for fairness. in my case although they are full aware there is no accounts receivable to collect on. and probably miffed at my promptness to bring it to their attention, and as a last resort entered all kinds of derogatory remarks in my credit files at all credit reporting agencies and caused my excellent credit rating to plummet down to their level. it will no doubt take hard work to clean up the mess they created to show their contempt toward a consumer from whom they will get nothing. because i owe nothing.
