Re: Posting my Journey

Quick update.

 

After emailing the CEO of Time Warner on Dec 6th I was able to get the collection account Deleted which update today Time Warner/CPA Deleted from All 3 CRA's. I was completley amazed at the speed in which they contacted me. I sent the email around noon on Dec 6th and they called me at arround 5pm the same day. Some backround on this collection. I relocated from Los Angeles to Phoenix in Sept. I had my service disconnected in july and mailed the final payment of $200 via money order. Imagine my suprise when I seen a collection listed on my CR for time warner. I called customer service which was a complete waste of time. I decided to email the CEO on a whim and got a call from the office of the president. I told the gentelman that I was unable to locate the money order receipt due to the move but I was more then willing to pay the balance if they would agree to remove it from my credit. He provided me the contact information to the CA and told me to call and make arrangments with them, he instructed me to contact him if I had any issues. So against my better judgement I contacted CPA and got a nasty women on the phone she kept telling me that since I failed to make payment on my account that the collection would remain and would update as paid. I was so angry that I just hung up the phone. 5 min later my phone rings and I see the Number is from the Office of the President so I answer and was told he would just take my payment and have the collection dept send a letter to CPA to delete. I paid him on Dec 7th and got a letter 7 days later with the agreement and the account was deleted today 12/21/2012.
