[QUOTE="KFld, post: 12490, member: 2442"] I have no idea why it came so soon, but they did give me the number to speak to someone at AT&T and difficult child came over and he called. He said he never lived there or connected a phone anywhere and they are sending him out a fraud package. They probaly sent the bill out as soon as the phone was connected I'm thinking for activation fee charges, but it still would not have been overdue enough to go to collections. We never got the bill because I think it took getting to the collection agency for them to connect his ss# with his previous address here. Not sure why the phone was shut off after one month and sent to collections?? Anyway, we went online and checked his credit. His credit is good and there is nothing else showing up that he doesn't either have himself, as far as a credit card etc, and no balances on anything. We are mailing in a request to put an alert on his credit report which they said will result in him needing to give more information then usual anytime he applies for something, which is fine with him. What I could not believe is what it took for us to speak to a live person!!! I was getting so aggrivated. It was all automated and you needed to wait for a password to be mailed to you to check online, or request your report mailed to you. Finally I got ahold of a live person and I them how rediculous it was. Your identity could have been stolen and you have to go through all this automated crap and wait to receive something in the mail, in the meantime someone could be purchasing things in your name left and right. I'd love to see an older person, who doesn't own a computer, try and get anywhere with this. We will wait for the AT&T fraud packet to come so he can fill it out and mail the request for the alert on his credit report asap. [/QUOTE]
