Complaint Review: Consolidated Media Services

July 20, 2005

Today I had some news regarding that a collection agency had called and said that I owed $542.10 on a magazine subscription. They said that I had subscribed in 1998 and today after 7 years they call out of nowwhere saying that I owe money. The company is Consolidated Media Services. I don't recall even signing up with these people and never received any type of magazines. I spoke to someone from Luebke Baker & Associates (the collection agency) for Consolidated Media Services and told them my situation. They gave me a number for Consolidated Media Services, but the only thing I've gotten was a voice mail saying they will call back and they never did. The collection agency said that they had an account file on me. Again, I don't recall ever signing up with this company. I never received a bill or notification that is why it just seems very suspicious. The person that I spoke to said they would reduce the bill to $250.00. They said they would sent me a confirmation in the mail in 3-7 business days. They also assured me that they have been in business for about 10 years. Never again will I deal with these telemarketers. They need to get a real job and stop scamming from hard working individuals such as my self.
