@ Julie
I just got a call from the number on this topic. The call failed to connect after their auto dialer called me. Yes, they are calling using such a device. I think that is illegal in some states. I have no idea what the attempted call was about was about. I still get calls from random people. They claim on their recording that it is not a telemarketer. That turned out to be a so called "Free 2 day cruise to the Bahamas.
1st off, there is no such thing as a free cruise, as the port authority charges a fee to every passenger on Cruise Ships.
Anyway, back to the topic... I wouldn't panic if neither of your payment cards went through. That is usually an indicator the financial institution has flagged the ones that you gave the info as a fraud risk.
I can understand your desire to get help paying fuel costs to get to your cancer treatments. I have cancer myself, but the cancer center is only 2 blocks from me.
The payment cards not going through for the reason mentioned above is the best case scenario, and most common reason for them to be declined.
You should keep doing what you are doing by trying to get a callback from them.
I'm the 4th in my immediate family to get cancer. Sad but true. :(
When I am in great need for help with my situation, the American Cancer Society has stepped in to help. They really are your best resource to get the help you need if you are unable to get your needs met.
So I just got this call... funny thing, when they asked me to spell my name I gave the letters F and B and I........... they hung up immediately.. I wonder why??
PS Julie... if you haven't already, you should call your banks/cardholders and let them know what just happened, that way IF any charges try to post or do or have they can start a fraud investigation!
