ACN Phone - Complaint

Review by Mrs. Consumer on 2010-06-04

I got ACN phone service just to please a family friend - one of their agents - who came to my house with the equipment already at hand so I couldn't say no. Anyway, the very same night, I got connected to ACN and I was signed up to automatic bill payments through my credit card. After a few months, I wanted out. called customer service and paid every fee. Immediately, my line was cut. I thought that was the end of it but they kept deducting from my credit card. I called their cutomer service repeatedly, but I was transferred from one unknowledgeable attendant to another. I asked for the supervisor, I asked for the customer service manager... I told them they have to stop deducting from my credit card! No result. Our family friend couldn't help out because he said these things should be settled with the customer service. I ended up cancelling my credit card (CIBC) and what did I get...??? A letter from a COLLECTION AGENCY saying I OWE ACN!!! Sucks!
