Hey Folks
I have been reading the posts in the CBV forum here and am actually pretty discouraged with what I should do.
I started recieving calls from CBV in May 1998 claiming I owed $1800 on a telus number that was actually my smart ring/fax number (added feature@$5.00/mo) since 2005. The 1000 and one calls I recieved were ignorant, insulting and rude. Every time I talked with these people all I asked for was some details and paperwork to substantiate this claim and every time I was told that as a debtor I dont deserve it, to which I would reply that I would not arbitrarily just mail off $1800 with out paperwork. I sent them a registered letter asking for details and recieved nothing 8 months later.
Well, I just went to renew my mortgage and there it was on my credit report, CBV collections for $3400. I dont know where they get thier interest rate from, can they charge interest?
I have called telus and they say they dont have any records to provide me as it is 4 yrs later.
Does anyone have any suggestions on how to deal with this.
Any and all help would be greatly appreciated, and Thank you in advance.
