I had an incident with Western International Univ., a sister collage to The University of Phoenix Online. (I am reporting them as well) To make a long story short, WIU sent me to a collection agency called Valentine & Kebartas, Inc.
These people are unbelievable; first off the guy calls me at work, which is harassment. I could tell instantly that all he wanted to do was fight with me. He was rude, insulting and just plain obnoxious! Obviously the first phone conversation didn't go anywhere.
So about 3 weeks later, this jerk calls me at work again! Instantly just wanting to fight. I had made the mistake on the first conversation to get his name and the name of the company, so I asked him, he argued about telling me, and then when I asked him to spell Kebartas, he got obnoxious, he told me? You know who your dealing with? Like it was a threat. So we argue back and forth about the $2513.64 they? Say? I owe WIU and their? Reasonable? $416.00 a month payment. Finally I had had enough, I told the guy, just give me your billing address so I can send a payment. His response was,? Why, your not going to pay your responsibilities? I asked him 4 times for the billing address, and he refused to give it to me! I just hung up on him.
What sickens me about this is first off, I don't owe that college anything. I did not receive a service, I did not agree to pay them anything, and they lied to me. Then this company comes along and harasses me at work. I have caller ID on my home phone, they have not once tried me there. They are not willing to work with you, all they want to do is ruin your day.
