Jacksonville, FL | Pull the credit card My dad died, so I cancelled the account. He didn't share it with anyone. I got calls, I got letters saying they were going to extend it. After 3 months they started billing again. Discover called me and said that AOL was trying to put a charge through on a cancelled card. I told them to reject it, that the account had been closed. AOL had the nerve to write a collections letter 3 months later for use with non-payment. Only problem was that the user was literally 6 feet under. So who was using it?
The attorney wrote them a cease & desist, they stopped finally. But I had to cancel the credit card to get them to stop.
So the key to stopping their madness....pull the credit card. |

On a different note, when my grandmother passed away, the hospital at which she died had the nerve to keep sending her bills for the very day that it happened. After my grandfather received four of five of these bills, I responded saying something like this: "Please address all further correspondence for "her name" to "address of the cemetery where she's buried." Maybe you should have done the same with AOL.

I just had to do this very thing this month for real.com after canceling 3 months in a row and still being charged. |
