After you type out your response, but before you press the "submit reply" button, highlight all of your response using the mouse, then click on "EDIT" > "COPY" in the internet explorer toolbar.

This way you'll have all of your typing and can do an "EDIT" > "PASTE" if necessary to retype your post!

Re: : telecheck

hey jenz, whatever happened with this?

 

Re: : telecheck

when did they receive your letter? did you tell them you were disputing or did you just ask for a report?

Don't just wait and see if/when they respond. I would give them 30 days to respond. if they dont, (and depending on what your last letter said) write them again, giving them 15 days to a) delete the TL and reinstate your check writing priveleges, and b) provide you with your report, showing the deletion, or you'll sue.

this is baloney.

 

Re: : telecheck

If they are not responding promptly within the required time periods, file an FTC complaint. They will forward it.

 

Re: : telecheck

Yeah, take crowmom's advice. She's already spent THEIR money. LOL.

I have got a bone to pick w/T'hell'echeck as well. That's after I get my other situations worked out. Hey, if I start now, I'll have THEIR money to spend at Christmastime!

 

Re: : telecheck

I love KoRn. The band and the food.

 

Re: : telecheck

There's a not-so long story as to how I came up with that screen name.
I play online multi-player games, of which my favorite was Battlefield 1942. I went under a different name, which I retired. In the game, I started out as an enlisted person, like Private Gomer Pyle. I shortened it to Pvt. Pyle. As the game progressed, and strategy developed, along with skills, I started promoting myself. I became Sgt. Pyle, then CWO Pyle.

From my time in the real service, I realize that the commissioned personnel had a lot more fun (like flying jets, what I WANTED to do) so I appointed my own commission. I then transformed to Lt. Pyle, Maj. Pyle, RADM Pyle, etc.

I decided that Pyle wasn't cutting it. So I changed to a funny name. Col. K0rn. like the food, and the military ranking.

I know, I'm wierd. But the name sticks, and I find it funny. People remember it. BTW, it's not an "O", it's a zero...something one of my buddies calls "leet" or l33t.

 

Re: : telecheck

ok, we are SO hijacking this thread, (sorry jenz!)

I thought your screen-name referenced KoRn, as in the band. They spell it with a backwards "R", like this: KoÃ?n. (It IS a backwards R when i type it into the message window, but when it posts it turns into some weird looking "B"--but who cares.)

anyway, I really like the band, so that was the first thing I thought of when i saw korn spelled with a k.

I feel really stupid now, because I should've gotten the 'corn kernel/col. korn' thing. cute.

I'll not tell how my screen name evolved until after my pending litigation with a particular CA has come to an end.

ok, back to your regularly scheduled thread.

 

I'm coming in on the end here but everyone has helped me so much and I found some information that might help out Jenz.

Telecheck is a subsidiary of a company called First Data. Evidently, First Data is one of the US's largest credit card transaction companies,

Further: First Data Corporation is traded on the NYSE - meaning BOARD of Directors. I bet if you fax them your complaint you'll have a miracle!

Anyhow, here's some more impt info on telecheck:

Telecheck has a Dunn & Bradstreet listing which should allow you to file a complaint with them. Now you might want to wait till you get your court findings - but the secret behind filing the complaint with D&B is that THEY directly affect THEIR credit rating, What might it do? Who knows but maybe just maybe it'll give them back a bit of what they've given you. Every bit helps you know?


Oh and in case you don't have it, here is Telecheck's fax # 713-331-7740.

Go get 'em!
