What is the name of your state? tn
I recently closed a florist and while in busness I had a wire service that would not let me cancel service. I repeatedly called to do so and was told each time that I had just missed the cut off and would have to retain my service for the period that I was shown in the directory for (3 month periods). Yruns out after digging up the contract and reading it, that they lied to me every time and could have cancelled at anytime with 30 days notice. So now they are after me for all the months they lied to me and honestly, I just don't have the money....that's why I was cancelling in the first place. I didn't pay in the hopes that I would finally get in touch with somebody with a brain that would work with me and reduce the charges since they out and out lied tome, but it seems the whole company is crooked. Anyway, this morning a collector called me at 6:50 and told me he had come in early to call me since the charges were being filed at 10 o'clock he wanted to call me early to give me a chance to get it taken care of (yeah, right.....and I have ocean right property in Arizona)so when I pointed out the time and mentioned the 8-9 fair debt collection act, he said it was different for businesses and didn't apply to to my situation since my patner had signed a personal gurantee....true or no?
