I have on more than one occasion been intimidated by someone that makes me lose sleep. If I can't figure out a way to solve it, or even if I do but I think someone of importance needs to know I will write to the Attorney General. They have been very helpful many times. You don't have anything to recover but I would send off a copy of the reply with an explanation and just let them know what kind of tactics this company uses. I live in WA but I would guess that you would contact the AG in your state. It's worth a try and it only costs you a stamp hopefully for some peace of mind.

I have had similar experiences too many times to count. However, they have never gone as far as to threaten my credit. Have even scrawled "I do not want this magazine any more. Do not send me any more notices or I will consider this a free subscription." They still send magazines until they get the hint. Times are hard and they are feeling the push and pushing back. I suggest a Suzanne Sugarbaker phone call.

I showed that notice to my wife while ago. As she read it, I could tell what was coming. She looked at me with "that" gleam in her eye and a smile and said "Do you want me to call them?" :twisted: :twisted: :twisted: I laughed :lol: and said that I already had. They should count themselves VERY fortunate that it was I that called them and not HER!

Sirus radio is real bad about that, as well. They give six months free. I say, fine and dandy. If I want it passed the six months, I will let you know. I never asked for the free six months and I shouldn't have to tell you that I don't want it anymore.
