dochand,



Try this: You answer, they start talking, you say hold on a minute... put the phone down and walk away.



How much money do you think they will spend on phone bills to collect what they claim you owe?



You don't have to answer YOUR PHONE. It's your property. It doesn't matter who is calling. You can do what you want with your property. Since it is yours, you are not REQUIRED to answer it when it rings. So, HOW COULD YOU BE IN DISHONOR BY NOT ANSWERING THEIR CALLS? You can't.



Your VOD should state very clearly that you require that all further communication be in writing... and that means they have dishonored your request if they call -- so why should you feel obligated to answer a call from someone that would so readily move into dishonor?



Isn't the request for all communication in writing for one of "protection" of rights (yours and theirs) and to insure adherence to the LAW by both parties? Well, if they are CALLING you then they must be wanting to make sure they can avoid protection of rights (probably want to trample on yours) and avoid adherence to the LAW (they think you don't know what they are lawfully allowed or not allowed to do). The previous stated fact should make it clear to you that they are in dishonor by not honoring your request to keep all communication in writing.



SO RUN THEIR PHONE BILL UP!!



"Would you mind holding on just a minute? Thank you." Walk away. Let them sweat it out and pay their phone bill.
