[QUOTE="Star*, post: 412603, member: 4964"] klmno, I can honestly say after eating a mouth full of pepper spray thanks to the incompetence of Dude's PO and that entire debacle of "let's raid the parents home" I feel your anger. It seems that you are explaining things well, and you wonder if they PO on the other end has the phone laying on the desk while you are speaking. Makes you kinda not want to talk at all. Which brings me to my next point. WHY speak? Over the phone that is. I mean - you CAN have your number blocked from certain numbers for a fee. And you can have your phone number changed and NOT give it out or have caller ID installed for cheap and if you see their numbers? Don't answer and don't install an answering machine. My point? Is......if they can't get you by phone they have to contact you by mail. I know this because - when I did the exact same thing? They called my place of employment. When I said "DO NOT call me here." The retort was "How do I contact you?" I said BY MAIL and I will respond in kind. I was told of course THIS was the reason for the raid on the house, however I do specifically remember stating IN person at the PO's office with the last payment 1.) This is the last payment 2.) Dude no longer lives with us I haven't seen him in over a month. If I do see him, I'll get ahold of you first. To which she responded to her commander - "Yes she did." Point and case. If you have it in writing OR explain you ONLY can accept written letters - maybe this would solve some of the problems you are having. Not everyone has a home phone - and you can't accept calls during working hours. (problem solved) As far as the why?
