Cingular Wireless
Phone Shut Off Over Disputed Bill, Threatened With Wage Garnishment

Shops, Products, Services

I am very interested in a class action against Cingular.

I've had the account for 3 years, my bill ran usually $115.00. One month my bill jumped to $400.00. When I called to complain, they said the bill was correct. I paid it because I didn't know what the problem was. The next month, my bill was over $500.00. I called Cingular again and again they insisted the bill was correct. I told them there was no way I could pay that money. They shut the phone off and charged me for that.

Just recently, they referred my account to ER Solutions, who called me at work, was very abusive, and said they were going to call my HR Dept. At work and start garnishing my wages next week. I told them there was a mistake in the bill and they basically said, tough, I could not sue Cingular and the contract I signed with Cingular gave them permission to garnish my wages.

I am very despondent over this situation. I can't eat, sleep, and am basically at the end of my rope.

I've tried everywhere to find the name and address of the CEO and the Chairman of the Board, but they are very clever about not giving that information out anywhere. Please include me in a class action lawsuit. Does anyone have advice. I sure would appreciate it.
