STATEMENTS WAS MADE FROM ACCOUNTING DEPT IN APT THAT THIS WAS A ONETIIME ACTIVATION FEE NOT DEPOSIT, AND THE MONEY WILL NOT BE RETURNED. BUT TENETS DO HAVE COPY OF PAPER WORK STATING THIS WAS A DEPOSIT. BUT WE STILL FEEL IT WAS NOT OUR DOING TO DISCONTINUE THE SERVICES THE APTS DID, AND WE SHOULD GET OUR MONEY BACK OR PLACE THE 100.00 TO PAST DUE BAL.
