I had a small hobby business in 2009-10 and closed it down early 2010 but forgot to send that info to the Florida Tax Rev office which resulted in a $300 tax bill (which was normally under $50). I should have called and cleared it up then, but didn't and ended up with a $300 tax lien on my CR (but only TU). I called first of March and they took the amount down to $214 and I sent in a check which cleared 3/7. I called a couple times over the next few weeks and people would check it and say no, call back.
So I called back 4/4 (almost a month later) and the girl said, there's still a $4 balance, that's why it's not gone thru. WHAT? Why did no one else say that when I called for the last month? So I immediately paid it and she sent me an emailed receipt and said that she would push it thru right then and should only take a few days and she'd send me a letter of satisfaction (gave her my updated address). So fast forward to today 5/5 and I've check and called every week and keep getting different excuses of why it's not updated yet NOR have I received a Satisfaction Letter. I called 4/19 and the girl was said, oh, it needs to be pushed back thru...and did it, and again gave her my updated address.
I called Tuesday of this week AGAIN and there's still no change. Now they're getting snotty with me like it's my fault. There's nothing I can really do on my end but just wait...but I've never seen anything so back asswards ever. I know I should have handled this earlier and this should have never happened in the first place, so I've tried to be kind.
In the meantime of all this, I settled a judgement, paid it and it's been updated on the records.
