I already had a service provider, but I signed up for AOL temporarily so I could talk my mom through "that scary internet thing." I figured I'd pay it for a month or two until she got the hang of hers, and then cancel. We've all heard the horror stories about quiting, so I'll just say that those folks are right.
But I just got a letter from a collection agency?! What? On behalf of AOL for deliquent payments. I haven't received any bill or call or anything on their part, just this. My only solace came in stumbling across folks with the same problem (http://www.consumeraffairs.com/internet/aol_cancel.html) so at least I know it's not a fluke occurrance.
I'm afraid this is going to ruin my credit rating, and I haven't done anything wrong. What can I do to fix this? Should I really just pay this phony charge and hope that's finally the end of it?
