Guess what I just got?
It's a "Collection Notice" because I didn't renew my subscription to Four Wheeler Magazine. Yes, that's right. I used to get it last year, and paid in advance for a year, which ended this summer. I got a year's worth of magazines, which I paid for, and they ended right on time. Because I wasn't sure of where my job would take me, and not wanting to have the future tennants of the house receive my subscription, I didn't renew.
Well, now they (Four Wheeler) sent the matter to a Collection Agency, to try to get the money out of me. I DIDN'T RENEW! Boy, this has me steamed. This is the first anything from them since May/June when the subscription ran out.
The letter reads:
"We all make mistakes. I'm sure most of us want them cleared up as quickly as possible. That's why your name was referred to us by the publisher of Four Wheeler.
The publisher tells us you placed an order (I did not), received their magazine (I did not), and have failed to pay the $11.97.
Possibly you have forgotten to send your check. You can easily correct the situation by sending us a check or money order payable to National Credit Audit Corporation.
The publisher has turned your account over to us for collection."
I called to rip them apart, but it's only an automated line, no human available.
Now you couldn't PAY ME to get their magazine. I can see if the magazine hounds you to renew, but this is just a scare tactic I won't fall for.
Watch out for them. I've never had another magazine do this, so I'll continue with others that haven't ended yet.
Just FYI to you all.
