I'm fighting with this company on an inquiry. Today, they state that I have to provide documentation that the inquiry was not made by me or my husband. Now, they have my written dispute...think about this...exactly what would I send them? Geez, they are dumb. How would you reply?
How about a blank piece of black construction paper? An empty envelope? A decline letter without a name on it? LOL, ask them what woud be adequate proof? breeze
LOL! Yeah, that should suffice Breeze. (Nana, they're asking you to prove a negative; can't be done.)
LOL, the math teacher in me really appreciated that note! I wrote back and said the proof was in their hands. They already told me in an email there was no signature. But, I'll add more if you all come up with something spiffy to say.
Nana: What you might do is to send them a letter and ask them how they expect you to prove a negative? And then when I submitted this post, I see that Hope has brought up the same point as I and in almost the same words.
Ok, guys, he just faxed me a typed (no signature of any kind) paper with my personal information...such as my work place, income, SS, etc. However, I never did one of these ... It kind of freaks me out... but then again, the ex-troll's wife could have been up to something again! So, do I just stick with the truth..I never authorized this? Bill, I did...no reply yet.
True story: Lightning once knocked out my phone service. I went to a relative's home, called the phone company and told my story. They said someone would get on it right away. Two days later I still had no phone, so I again went to my relative's house and called in for repairs. Once again, they said someone would be up right away. I still had no phone the next morning. Just as I was leaving to complain again, the mailman shows up with a letter from the phone company: "Dear Maurice," it began. "We have tried to answer your concern, BUT HAVE BEEN UNABLE TO REACH YOU BY PHONE." Maurice
Nana, I just cut the grass after 2 weeks of rain, and took the blower to the pine tags all over the road and driveway. My brain ain't in smart-ass mode, for sure. Hope is good at spiffy. I'll probably wake up at 4 AM with a great retort for you! If Hope's not in top form, you could page Marie or one of the Daves (nave and LV) - they come up with great one-liners. breeze
That's what I would suggest. After all, they say the truth never hurts. That statement might be disputable under some circumstances, but at least that's how the old saying goes.
ROFLMAO!!! AHAHAHAH...oh, Maurice..brought tears to my eyes. Ok, guys, this info is public info..(except our SS#)...like teacher's salary, etc...has hubby working at a place he hasn't worked at in over 5 years.. so it's crap...anyway..still no signature..do I stick with that?
LOL ROFLMFAO!! How about sending them a blank credit application with a letter that says "Here is proof...my name and signature are NO WHERE on this application, therefore I could not have given permission for that inquiry." -Peace, Dave NanaC andd Breeze, you two are too much!!
I like it, Nave. He totally ignored my last question..he says I have to contact Lending Tree (I NEVER had anything to do with Lending Tree!!! UGH)..but their name is on this..not Lending Tree! I told them it has their name, they are responsible! No response (he was writing me like every 2 seconds before!) Hubby has a work phone listed..only he works at home..so that doesn't make any sense!
Hey, Breeze: I forgot to say that I thought your remarks were priceless! AHAHAHAHA...I missed them in the bouncing back and forth between the dipchip and this thread..sorry! You came up with those after all that work???? Impressive!!
Actual quote: "Additionally, the only way that we could remove the inquiry is for you to provide documentation that the application was not submitted by you or your wife (which you'd need to inquire about how to go about this with Lending Tree). Once we obtain sufficient evidence of such, we can take the steps necessary to remove the inquiry." Hubby started this so you can see it refers to him first. I'm not dealing with Lending Tree when I never have, never will!
I even impress myself sometimes, Nana, LOL. This is a great thread. Have you got a notary nearby? Ask him if a notarized statement sworn on the Bible and signed in blood would do. breeze
That would be like me being in class saying "If you are absent, please raise your hand." Or "If you get there first, leave a mark. If I get there first, I'll erase it." Sorry, but the word dumbass comes to mind. :> Breeze: Maybe my Cobaltcard DNA tests will work?
ROFL!! Hey that DNA test was good. Use it. I have sent out emails to my friends with the ps added "Let me know if you don't get this." Nobody ever noticed. breeze
Have you ever seen that commercial where this guy is in a job interview and he addresses his potential boss as Mr. Dumbass instead of Mr. Dumas? hehe Maybe you should address the application Dave talked about to Mr Dumas?
