Sending me nasty letters, harassing and calling my mother at all hours of the night, don’t even have accurate information, telling me that on their checklist that there were moving damages, which there is no proof
This company called me out of the blue and pressured me into paying over $100 for a power bill they claimed I owed. Mr. Rodgers, the man I talked to, could not give me any concrete proof they were not scamming me, but said if I did not set up patment plans right then, the amount did would go on my credit report. When I said I would not have the money until the 1st of next month, they told me they would not start taking payments out of my account until then, but could not send me any information until I gave them a credit/debit card number. Since my debit card was set to expire before the next month started, he wanted my checking account number. Being scared of having this go on my credit report, I gave him the information he wanted.
After hanging up, I called my bank to let them know what happened. They told me to call my former power company to see if I did owe from an unpaid bill. When I called the power company, they said I had paid in full and my account was closed with no outstanding balance. They also suggested I call the third party provider that supplied the power. The supplier said there was an outstanding balance. It is not possible for this to be my fault. I am only responsible for paying the power bill which comes to my house. I am not responsible for deciding how that money gets divided up between the power company and the supplier. Not can I even if I wanted to. So because of PDM's high pressure tactics and threats to my credit report, they now have access to my checking account. It will cost me a great deal of time, effort, and money to close that account and open up a new one, where if they would have let me research and call around first, I could have cleared this mistake up. Especially since I never got any letters or warnings before this call.
