Talktalk Again

hi all just a word of warning to anyone thinking of joining these CLOWNS ,left their b/band in May but they were still taking money out in July ,left their phone service in oct and have been sending cheques to them from July ,but they lost my cheque for Sept ,then after 3 weeks we finally found that they paid it in to my B/band account (which was closed in July),so got that sorted it out ,hopfully .Then when they found my cheque they informed me that there was another £14.99 in this account and did I want it transfered in to my phone account ,of course I said so I was told I was in credit by £14.99 (start of Oct),moved to Skytalk on the 19 oct so waited to get my final bill ,then got an email telling me my bill was there ,but when I loged on it said my account was disconnected so no bill.Then today got a letter and final warning for £10.63 and threat that a dedt agency were going to pursue this money if I did not pay it in "4 DAYS" ,not much time.It now seems that if you want to leave these "clowns" that they will do anything to ruin anyone with a good credit rating,I know that I am not the only one to be put in this situation ,also I have wrote to them asking if there is any money in any of my 2 accounts that I want this back but I do not hold out much hope of a response from them ,so lets see if anyone can let me know what other horrors will lie in store for me

    I'm gladder and gladder (is there such a word?) that I steered well clear from the start.

    It looked too good to be true and, sure enough, ................
    Time has moved on (much quicker than it used to - or so it seems at my age) and my previous advice on residential telephony has been or is now gradually being overtaken by changes in the retail market. Hence, I have now deleted links to my previous 'pearls of wisdom'. I sincerely hope they helped save some of you money.
