Beware of OSP Communications!

Here’s a new rant. Having just recently been let go from a job, I decided to do things that I had put off. For example, I scheduled all the doc appointments I had been putting off and looking over the pile of crap on my desk that needed to be organized.

Throughout this organization – I found my desk underneath the mess on it, and I discovered something in an old AT&T bill. It was listed under the section “The Billing Resource.” Basically, AT&T allows third parties to charge through them (I guess). So anyway, I had a “collect call” charge to my account from Van Horn, TX. “Billed on behalf of OSP Communications.” I will be disputing this charge when businesses open on Tuesday, but for the time being, I am simply livid that this happened. At first I was totally confused, until I looked at RipOffReport.com where if you click on the following you’ll see that these people have done it to others. CLICK HERE. 

I don’t know anyone from Van Horn TX, I can’t receive collect calls because my home line is only connected to a fax and I realize I should have checked over my bill sooner. Although ebills are more convenient, I am also finding it easy to simply pay it and not worry about the individual charges. So for what its worth, in this day and age when information (private or otherwise) is easily available to anyone, check everything – your credit, your bills, and your mail.
