Oh Daniel, I'm so sorry. Unfortunately, that sounds exactly like many other experiences with debt collectors many of us here have had.
River: I know you have questions. Mal: That would be why I just asked them.

[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risque (and frisque), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
I just got a call from a debt collector who wanted $15K immediately.
Ahhh, they all want it immediately. Bullying is how they work.
eta: You don't have to give it to them immediately until they take you to court, though. And even then you can often work out a settlement.

they pulled my account from the company I've been working with through my debt management agency and gave it to someone else *yesterday*.
Daniel, talk to your debt management agency. They may be able to make a deal for you with the new company.

All is well that ends in pizza.
I ended up raiding a storm at them not providing me any sort of documentation, and referred them to my debt management agent.

Vernor's is the best, least sweet gingerale out there. I like Reed's Ginger Brew better, though because it tastes more like ginger.

Shit's all sorts of different now.
waits for ita to post "Vernor's is not gingerale - it's ginger soda."

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Unless something's changed recently, Vernors doesn't sell ginger ale. They sell ginger soda. And that drink is noticeably sweeter than Canada Dry, which is about the only ginger ale I drink. The ginger juice and tonic or soda is the brilliantest idea of all time.
