I am a Qwest Telephone customer. I recieved my bill to find that USBI, AKA Tralee Telephone company, has adopted my telephone and given me long distance service even though I have no idea who they are or how they did it. I called Qwest on the spot.
They told me Tralee Telephone has been scamming people through crooked websites for quite awhile. I was also informed that one click of the mouse on any advertisment signed me up for long distance service with them, without me ever knowing. Qwest also told me that they take atvantage of any third party billing company, such as "Qwest" "MCI" etc.By just sending thier monthly fees to them, because they know they can do nothing to stop it. I was then informed to call Tralee and cancle the service. I thought "WOW",
I get to cancel a service I never knew I had! WHAT A JOKE!
After exstensive research, I discoverd this is highly illegal and they are breaking several laws. It is called "Slamming". Tralee Telephone has no real customers, and are pro's at this criminal practice. The best way to avoid Tralee Telephone Company from doing this to you is..."NEVER EVER type your phone number in any website unless you are 100% sure who they are and what they do".
(IF they can't get your phone number, you can't be billed).
Anyone who has been "Slammed" in this manner either enterd thier phone number as contact information or clicked an option for them to do so. I have called the consumer fraud division, called the BBB and reported this to every place i could think of to inform all the honest people who did not know better like me.
Hope this Helps
