I opened a cell phone acct. Jan1, 2001. From the very first bill I was billed for a plan that didn't exist. (the sales woman who sold me the ph & plan basically put 2 plans together to seemingly meet my needs.) When I contacted the company to correct thie issue, they credited the acct and a new plan was chosen. Within a few months there was another problem with the billing...I was still being billed outrageous amounts for -again- a plan that I didn't agree to. I wrote a letter and received a response that my acct would be adjusted and a new plan was suggested. Within week of receving the letter, I called cust. serv. to change my plan...reading exactly what was written on the letter I just received from them. For the next 3-4 months (Aug-Nov) I was billed $1800 for airtime use! My monthly plan was to cost $55...I was being charged for roaming and peak-airtime minutes when I was told the plan that was suggested to me would cover my needs based on my past phone use pattern. I stopped payment once the charges became ridiculous and the customer service reps became beligerent. I was reported to collections and was also charged a fee for ending my contract early. Last fall I started paying monthly amts to the agency, since they were listed as one of my creditors on my consolidated loan plan. I have paid $258 total, but have removed them from my monthly pmts. I'm ignorant as to what my legal options are in clearing up this matter and I know that I do not owe $1800. I'm looking for some offical direction here. thanks
