Have you ever had a collection agency call you asking for money? They are so rude on the phone. A few weeks ago, I guess I overwrote a check to Petco. I take that back...... we had money & we have an overdraft protection (money comes out automatically out of savings) in case of something like this. I called our credit union, and I asked why it never was taken out of savings. They told me on our savings accout, which is really in my husband's name, you can only have 6 "electronic" fund transfers a month, which we were both unaware of. Because of that the check that I wrote was sent to a collections agency!
I called them last week telling them I will pay it this week, but when the called I told them I will pay it next week b/c that is when we get paid. If the credit union didn't have their stupid rules, this never would've happened! Of course, you know they won't pay the fees -- we have to. Damn collections agency people are so rude. This is the 1st time this has ever happened, and they treat you so rude on the phone.
