Hello,

I have been reading the forum lists where JBC is concerned and I have my own woes with them.
I do not recall receiving a letter, but because I get sooo much mail I may have thrown the letter out. I received a call from them this last Saturday during a golf tournament (it is not easy golfing and talking on the cell at the same time). Anyway they kept me on hold for 20 minutes and then when they finally got to the phone they told me who they were and the details of why they were calling. In 1996 I wrote a check for a down payment on a new car. At the time I thought I could afford it and would have no problem covering the payments. Unfortunately I could not due to a decrease in work time (construction flagger at the time). I ended up talking with the car dealer about the check and they said that as long as I had it paid within 30 days it should be OK. Well, I ended up returning the car because of additional hardships and forgot about the check. Now, some six-seven years later I am getting a call from JBC threatening me with 870 dollars or face charges in my jurisdiction and 4 criminal counts brought against me. They have given me until the 25th of July....5 days to come up with 301.00 of that and later pay 218.00 and 218.00 again. (the math is strange there too). Anyway...any <--underline/bold/flashing text.....I need advice on what I can do. I can't even afford shoes let alone this. Thanks in advance


Jamie
