so, i just got a bill from a long distance company i thought i had closed my account with years ago.
the last bill i can see that i paid to them was Jan 06
i dropped the line that that account was with sometime over a year ago, i think, as well.
but the best part...
the charges were for "Toll Free" calls
i dont understand this at all. 1 interstate, 1 intrastate "toll free" call. each billed at 30 seconds for 3 cents a piece.
on top of that 6 cents of billed call use is a $3.50 administration fee. and on top of that is $3.54 in taxes and surcharges.
$7.10 bill for $0.06 of billed calls. and the calls were "tollfree" ?? wtf?
However, they were pretty nice when i called and it took about 20 min, but they said they closed the account and refunded the charges. We'll see if this actually sticks.
