First of all, "Ron George" should put this on their resume, "I make people's lives miserable for a living because I lack the sense of professionalism to do my job." This sounds immature but this is what I experienced first hand so this is an eye for an eye, per se.
I wish I was over reacting, but I actually got mocked for just asking a question. They hang up on you while you're talking. If you get a letter of a bill for thousands of dollars, you'd expect them to give you more information.
Anyway, these people add the most ridiculous additional charges with BS reasons. I probably paid at-least $500+ additional fees with no backing up. I understand that their job is collect debt but it is how you go bout doing the work you're hired to do. If you're incompetent, then don't do it.
I'm not saying this because I didn't want to pay, because I DID pay the overcharged amounts. Even when I paid the fees, they still found a way to charge me more. If you get a letter from them, I'm so sorry because they are absolutely the worst.
I explained to American Management Company exactly why I was unwilling to pay the bill and told them that if they wished to pursue this further, to have their attorney's contact me. Yes, I said that.
I received a notice that they would be putting a lien on my property NOT JUST for the $220.48 but for an additional $369.50 in various legal and administrative fees. I called the law offices and told them I was willing to pay the $220.48 but these fees are ridiculous, especially since our HOA already budgets a substantial amount of our fees to attorney's hired specifically to collect this money. To me, it seems like I'm paying twice.
I called the law offfices, left a message and got a prompt return call from someone named Richard. Did not get his last name. He informed me that I must pay the full amount. I asked Richard why I was never informed that these additional fees would apply. I told him that I was willing to pay the $220.48 (even though, it seemed crazy to pay a management company for doing nothing for 1/3rd of the year) but that I was never told that these additional fees would be assessed if the matter was turned over to an attorney.
I wanted the matter turned over to an attorney. In my mind, I felt the charges were unjustified and I wanted a lawyer to tell me exactly why I should pay. That's not what I got. What I got was an additional bill and what Richard said to me is: "You were told. It's written in your HOA agreement." I asked him where specifically it says that. He said: "Listen, you're going to argue with me. You're going to do your little dance..." That's when i stopped listening to Richard.
All I wanted was for someone to explain to me why it makes sense to pay for services that were never rendered. What I got was a self-righteous, condescending little man telling me: "It's in there." Nice job, Richard.
