Last night I went online to view my phone bill and noticed at the bottom of the page "charges from other companies". When I selected to view those charges, I saw that I was being charge by ILD Teleservices, Inc for voice mail service that I was not aware of, never ordered or authorized and have no use for. After calling one of the numbers listed, I was given another number to call and was told that they would credit me 3 months. When I asked them how long I'd been charged, I was told since July!
After much investigation on the internet about this company, I find that their have been thousands of complaints to Consumer Affairs dating back to December (http://www.consumeraffairs.com/cell_phones/ild.html) and that there was even a civil case that was eventually "settled".
What I find so appalling, is that companies that consumers trust, such as AT&T allow these scammers to take advantage of their customers under the guise of their local phone bill. It's time to call these companies that turn a blind eye to the carpet!
