I've never met a bigger horses butt!

Okay, I didn't actually "meet" him, but I talked to him on the phone and I'll tell you what--steam has been coming out of my ears ever since. Last January we bought a van from an auto plaza in S.L. City. We did all the normal things, signed papers, etc... In about April we get a collection notice from some agency telling us we owed the auto plaza $600.04. We had no idea what in the would it could be for, so we call them and it turns out that the dealer who was working with us never actually called and got the payoff amount from the van we traded in. So, they didn't calculate $600.04 into our new loan amount. My problem? No, but thanks. That's their freaking fault for not doing their job. We've been fighting with the auto plaza ever since and they finally agreed to only making us pay half. Okay, still irritating, but whatever. We ask for them to send us paperwork stating that we have come to this agreement. A month goes by, then two, finally I call and the lady says that "Tina" has quit and she will send something out on Monday. That was 2 weeks ago. Yesterday I got a collection notice from the same agency telling us that if we don't pay now, our account was due in full. I called the agency, and this guy named Chris answers. I tell him the situation and he chuckles and says "well, have you paid them off?" I go on to tell him that we were waiting for paperwork, and he says "I'll call them and see." All of it was being said with such an arrogant, I'm better than you, tone. Then hangs up on me. My husband calls him and confronts him with how he treated me. Chris says, "were you a part of that conversation?". Then goes on to say that "all of you are alike. I could look up your credit report and tell what kind of people you are. I don't have debt collectors calling me. I pay my bills. What's your problem?" Hubby proceeds to tell him that he has no clue what kind of people we are and that he doesn't know the situation. All we
are trying to do is inform you. The last thing this guy says is "you have pushed the wrong buttons with me today, I'm going to e-mail my attorney and there will be a judgment on this account." Then he hangs up. What a jerk! I better not ever meet this guy. I'll rip out his tongue so he can't speak. Good thing for him that I don't know where he lives. Good thing for him that once I cool off I will forgive him and pray that he won't treat anyone else as poorly as he treated us!
