I ran a credit report and saw this due amount for 32.26 with afni..I called afni at once and even though I disputed the charge it was so small I paid it at once..THEN they sent me a letter stating that I owed the SAME amount..after 15 minutes of cell time, they said they sent the letter so I could have it in my files!
She also stated that a letter was mailed in March, (which I never got!)
One would think that if NO response for such a small amount would warrent another letter..NOT reporting to the credit rating companies, and messing up credit scores..this company is the WORST I have ever seen..
the only thing I can say is both employees I spoke with were at least NICE..uninformed, but nice! Poor ladies should get on with a decent trustworthy company

This company continues to insist I owe verizon money almost 700.00. I asked then to investigate and they refused and told me to pay in full in order to clarify anything... Rip offs!!!

I was checking my bank statement and I found that AFNI, Inc. has taken out $144.00 without my knowledge. I did ot even know what it was til I asked my bank. This is fraud and stealing. Who else can I report this to.

I got a letter from these people trying to collect a bill from bell atlantic that was from 1998. I never sent them any money but i would think that time has run out for the company to collect on this bill i searched for info on this company very surprised on how many people are in the same situation. I am in verizon has taken over bell atlantic i have a cell phone account threw them. I would think i would of haft to pay this past due account with them long before i could get a cell phone threw them so what gives with this company. I seen that some collection actually buy old past due accounts and try to collect so whats my rights on this matter and how many people are sending them there money just to get them to stop i for one am not sending them anything if verizon wants there money i still got a account with them i am sure they can collect threw them.

Somethings a bit odd about this company and their accusations. I too got a bill from them saying I owed $315.92 from 1998 for an address I had not known or even lived at in my life. I called and respectfully spoke to Bryan (who had prepared himself for one of those dishonest customer). I told him I had never lived at the address for which they were collecting for and I was willing to provide them with any info they needed. He said there was nothing I could provide, he provided for me a last known billing address which I was familiar with but he admitted it was a from public records. He also said AFNI could close the account if I agreed to pay $100 to settle it. Of course I refused and he said it would just go on my record. So I called again and got Jason who was more specific with the dates (mind you, during the alleged time I was hundreds of miles away with my own residence and own bills). Again I respectfully asked what I could provide and he said:

1) A police report stating that someone at the alleged address used my information for an account at Verizon.
2) Proof of residency at the time of accusation.

I'll certainly provide them with what they need and will be reporting AFNI to the BBB (Better Business Bureau). I suggest anyone with this issue do the same. Oh I forgot to mention, also dispute this with the credit bureau. I'm sorry folks have to go through this painful mess!

God bless you.
