thats what i did, but someone from there "payment center" called me and told me that if i didn't give them my new number that they would contact their attorney and that I would be sued for refusing to pay, even though i have received any magazines or gift cards. this whole thing started in October. They also said that they have proof that I got the magazines because the post office scans the bar code, but that is definitely false cause i have received nothing.
i closed out my bank account and changed my phone i dont recieve the calls anymore but i do recieve letters saying they are going to send me to collections now the funny thing is i recieved one notice stating i had ten days or else they would report me to collections ok now the real funny part is a couple months later they send me another letter saying i have ten days to pay the balance or they will send me to collections both letters are super fake u can completely tell.... my only concern is could they really get an attorney and attack my credit score....... now i did recieve my credit report today and it said i have no collections on there so im not really sure what to think i know the company is a fraud but i am still concerned for my credit.. what all has happened to u?
