I am in Pennsylvania.
AOL has been harassing me terribly. Every day for the past few months.
First it was a collection agency for AOL. I ended up paying them over $70.00 because they told me i had no choice but to pay it or it would be put on my credit report even tho i was denying the bill was mine.
I told them i had not had an AOL account for quite some time, I told them that the account in question had been cancelled by phone just as AOL makes everyone do to cancel, You cannot cancel an AOL account online, You MUST call.
I had very odd feelings about this and i said to the woman, Can you guarantee me that this wont happen again and again, She said if i paid it that there would be no way it could happen again. I said to her, i cant imagine how you can guarantee that when it is happening right now
But since she said this would not go away and it was stressing me i went ahead and paid it OFF, thinking i would be free of this stress of every day calling
I gave in and paid it against my feelings that i should not. I am not employed right now and i must watch what i spend.
Not a month later the calls start AGAIN!
This time the woman says she is from AOL, where the last time they said they were a collection service for AOL
This woman is very foreign and she don't seem to understand anything i say to her
I tell her i just paid AOL over $70.00 a month ago for an account i had cancelled after the free trial and that there was no way i was going to pay them another dime as i didn't even have an AOL account. I asked her to please remove me form her calling list, she agreed!
Next day The call comes AGAIN, a machine telling me to call AOL and that its urgent
I call the number and am put on hold instantly, few minutes later the same woman i spoke to the day before comes on saying the very same things as she had yesterday!
I tell her, i recognize her voice from yesterday and why didn't she remove my name form her list
She tells me i owe AOL money and i must go online and update my account info
I tell her i have no account to do this and i haven't had AOL in quite some time and that i recently paid $70.00 and to please remove me from her list!
This has now been going on again for nearly a month and I'm about to have a heart attack or stroke over this
Not a very nice way to start the day every day and many times through out the day the same machine calling again and again and they will not listen to me
I tried calling my phone company to see what i can do and they are no help, they told me to press *57 after they call and that would record that they called me but its $1.00 every time i do this and what good is it cuz they cant do anything but record that the call in fact came in
Help please!
