Mitchell N Kay Law Offices Of Mitchell N Kay Direct-Tv, ripoff scam, fraudulent billing, runaround and they know it! lets just send the bill to everyone to see who will pay! consumer fraud, harassment! New York New York
Received a bill from Direct Tv, stating I owed them 80.03 on an overdue account. Called the local Direct Tv call center in Boise, where we were able to determine that the alledged person who owes the bill has the same name, but a different phone number, physical address and SSN. I told Direct Tv that I had never used their services, and was told that the matter would be taken care of, now that they knew they had the wrong person. The call center representative told me that they sent out letters to everyone with the same name in hopes of finding the person(s) that owed the bill. Never gave this another thought, matter resolved.
Wrong!
Today I receive a collection notice from the Law Offices of Mitchell N. Kay, for the 80.03 owed to Direct Tv! Deciding something was smelling rotten, I did a search on Mr. Kay's name, and low and behold, his name leads me to this site. I WILL be contacting the Attorney General of Idaho, Better Business Bureau, and all credit reporting agencies to get this resolved.

Chris... your grudge is not with Mr. Kay, but with the company that hired him to do their collections. Ever heard the phrase "don't shoot the messenger?" It's easy in a wrongful-collections matter to get mad at the lawyer who is pursuing you, but if he were to accpet your word against the word of the company he represents he wouldn't be a very good lawyer, would he? Would you want him to represent you in any matter knowing that he won't pursue it if there is a possibility that you are wrong? This is not to say that you aren't being "ripped off" and that you shouldn't pursue this issue, by all means, pursue it until the bitter end! Just make sure you actually know who is screwing you, and don't waste your efforts on a fruitless venture.
