Michael from "Disconnection Department" of Atmos called to say that we were going to be cut if we did not pay $499. Called Atmos and they stated that we were current and this was not their style.
Received a call at our business today - 7/17/15 at 4:02 p.m. from Michael saying that he is from DWP and we have a past due balance that was not paid as of June 17th. Since I told him no manager was here he said to have someone call back to the Disconnection Department Right Away (214) 638-4324. I asked him for an account number and all he had was the address. - After handing up with him, I dialed the number and the same person answered the phone "DWP Disconnection Department". I just hung up. Four Glaring Problems with this call (1) The Los Angeles Department of Water & Power (DWP) would not have a 214 area code phone number. "214" is in Texas (2) Disconnection Notices come in the mail - and we always receive our mail and (3) He couldn't give me an account number and (4) LADWP doesn't operate this way. What a JOKE! -SCAM - SCAM - SCAM!!!
