Thousands of consumers, as you probably know, are going through the same crap with these jerks that you are. Check with the postal branch where you purchased your money order and find out if there is anyway you get a copy of the cancelled check. That is probably your only proof that they did indeed receive payment. Inform them, by certified mail, that you are disputing the amount in question and that if they contact a credit reporting agency, they are in vioation of the Fair Credit Reporting Act and subject to legal action in a FEDERAL court. Document EVERYTHING, using registered or certified mail and/or public notary. ANYTIME a company or person uses the US Postal Service or telephone, they are running the risk of committing wire and/or mail fraud, both FEDERAL OFFENSES. Good luck and DON'T BACK DOWN
