Contacted "A Divorce By Phone" after seeing it advertised in the Yellow Book for fees starting at $150. Called and spoke with Frank Sparko and he assured me how reputable they were. When I inquired why they weren't listed in the regular Yellow Pages he replied, "Well, it's more expensive and we prefer the Yellow Book." OK. Why aren't you listed with the Asheville BBB if you're in the Asheville Yellow Book? Well, we won't pay their outrageous annual fees. So how much is the divorce? Think he quoted me $649.
I told him I didn't have it and started to hang up. He told me that if I could come up with $150 right away, he would "do me a favor" and go ahead and start the paperwork. When could I come up with the balance? In two weeks? No I replied, I am on disability and receive my check once a month. Well, how much more can you come up with this week? I will try to call my mom in Tennesssee tomorrow and see if she will loan me $200, so maybe $200.
