12-22-04 My situation has been somewhat resolved. Tralee Telephone issued a credit to Cincinnati Bell on my behalf. Cincinnati Bell issued a credit for the additional late charges. Cincinnati Bell will try to prevent this situation from happening in the future. Tralee Telephone needs to verify that the phone number they are going to charge is actually owned and authorized by the person entering the information on their website. Tralee Telephone needs to check with Cincinnati Bell to verify the name and address associated with the phone number. Tralee Telephone should call the telephone number to make sure it is authorized for the charges. Tralee Telephone should NOT automatically charge a phone number until they have verified the name and address and have proof that the charges are authorized.

Cincinnati Bell keeps charging me $15.14 each month and they say they are not responsible because it is "third party billing". I have told Cincinnati Bell verbally and in writing that "I am not financially liable for any unauthorized charges" but Cincinnati Bell will not accept my statement. Cincinnati Bell demands I pay them for these unauthorized charges and confirms that my unpaid balance will affect my credit rating reports. USBI the "third party billing" company said they are not responsible because they are providing a service. The unauthorized charges originated from Tralee Telephone unsoliciticed and unknown. Cincinnati Bell has listed the following "Itemized Calls" every month on my phone bill from Tralee Telephone billed by USBI. Savings Plus Monthly Fee $13.90 Universal Service Fund $1.24 Please help stop this national fraud. Write to your senators and congressmen. Write to the mayor of each city involved. Contact your local police department.
