Advice for next course of action please.

I have an OPEN collection account being reported to TransUnion.  Here are the details: Creditor:  Why Not Leasing LLCAmount:  $332Date Opened: 2/5/2013Date Updated: 1/5/2015Last Payment Made: 3/14/2014Pay Status: >Account 120 Days Past Due Date< Long story short, I leased some furniture from this company and paid on time for over 7 months.  I was under the impression this was paid off.  The last payment I made on this account was over the phone and the agent told me that it was the last payment.  Unfortunately, I did not get this in writing.  This is all my mistake as I didnt pay close attention to this account due to other things happening in my life.   I decided to make a call to the company and spoke with a rep that was nice but not very helpful.  I told them my story and then offered to pay in full if they would delete the account.  They told me that they dont make changes on the credit reports and that their "tax company" does that.  They then said that it would more than likely show " closed" after I pay it. They also decided to settle with "whatever I could afford" to give.  Although this was tempting, I backed off and said that I would need confirmation that it would be deleted first.  Again she stated that they do not make those decisions and said after I pay them "whatever I could afford" they would transfter me to Customer Service to discuss the credit reporting issues.  I told them that I wanted to speak with them first before I decide to make the payment.  The rep told me that she could not do that....she stated that Customer Service would not talk to me until payment was made. I then told the agent that I will be sending them a letter outlining my offer of paying for deletion and ended the call.  How do you guys think I should handle this?

  • Advice for next computer :)

    Some people are buying a laptop and a large display to work with the laptop at home.
    You could buy a mac mini for $600. This would give you a new computer. You could reuse you keyboard & mouse. Some people are connecting their mini their lcd tv's
    Dear All,
    RCCharles was kind enough to give me the above suggestions in the context of helping me with my IE crash. Does anybody else have some advice so that I can spend less than $1000 on my next Mac desk and laptop?
    I've only had 2 computers in my life. My then husband gave me an AMIGA which ran both IBM and Mac. Then I bought this little blueberry in 1998. It is still ticking away with the help of the fine angels of this board. However, I'm beginning to feel that the Internet is slipping away from me stuck on 9.2.2.
    All the best and happy holidays to all.

    What I don't know is how well the Mini does the TV thing--we still have those functions separate from the computers at our house.
    I've seen flat-panel monitors on sale for under $150, and people are giving away CRTs. A friend of mine recently got a pallet of nice, working 19" CRTs for the gas it took to haul them off.
    Good morning, Allan,
    It's going to be in the 80s here today However, Idaho has California beat for generosity! As far as TV, I merely want to be able to access the network websites, and watch their streaming videos. In January, my local User's Group starts up again, so I hope to get some hands-on advice.
    All the best,
    Irene

  • Glass broke a month shy of two years. need advice on best course of action!

    The glass on my iphone broke with one month to go before the two year service contract is up. I was planning on buying a new iphone in november. IS there an incentive to wait a month? I think so but I a not sure what it is. If I buy a new one now, before my contract expires, what advantages am I forfeiting?
    Thank you in advance for you time, should you have any answers.

    You mean call AT&T... Yes, that makes sense. But avoiding that fate... that would be nice, too. Maybe it wont be so bad.

  • I wish to cancel my subscription for the Adobe PDF pack (I received a renewal e-mail today) - your web-site is awful for such a simle action - please confirm cancellation

    I don't wish for a discussion - I wish and require cancellation of my subscription - that's all

    I acknowledge that I am not very computer literate - I've solved the problem - I have used an e-mail which didn't trigger the product listing - although it is one of my e-mails.  Using another (I guess the one I actually ordered against) I was given the product to manage.

  • IPhone 6 plus screen cracked. Please advise best course of action.

    Hi all, hope someone can help. My son has a iPhone plus and has just cracked the screen. He is very careful with all his devices and has never broken any thing like this before hes very careful. But what I'm asking is what is the best way to get this fixed. We are in Northern Ireland. Please help any advice would be great. Thanks in advance.

    Hey SciGibson,
    Sorry to hear about your son’s iPhone. The best course of action would be taking it to an Apple Authorized Service Provider to get it fixed. Take a look at the link below and put in your location in the Service section to get you the closest shop to you to take care of this.

  • We have a MBP with the NVIDIA known issue--purchased in August 2007. Is there any course of action for us?

    Hello!
    Our daughter's MBP was purchased in August 2007.  It died over the weekend and the diagnosis is this known issue. Apparently Apple is fixing these computers up to four years out from purchase.  We are a few months shy of five years. The computer is at an Apple certified repair center but not at an Apple store. Do you think there is any course of action we can take for Apple to fix this? I thought I'd ask before just giving up.
    We are an Apple family---two iMacs, two (soon to be three as we have another graduate) MBPs, iPad, multiple iPods, 5 iPhones, etc.  I don't suppose there is anyway to play on Apple's sympathies but thought I'd ask for advice!
    Thanks for any advice/help!
    DeLynn     

    My 15" 2007 has the same issue, and what's especially alarming is I brought the machine to the Apple Store to test for this issue before the 4 year deadline was over and they said my machine wasn't part of the same batch.
    However, I'm experiencing the same video distortion issues as described by others who have it. Definitely narrowed it down to the video chip, even a electronic specialist friend of mine says it's the video.
    It's a shame because everything else, except the weak keyboards Apple seems to enjoy creating, works perfectly on it. I could replace the keyboard and sell the machine for $650, but now I'll have to scrap it out for parts.
    Another thing, is the grill exiting the machine where the fans are blocks dust on the inside!, which is totally stupid, dust should be blocked from entering the machine on the outside, where one can wipe it off and improve air flow.
    Removing the fans to clean the grills violates one's AppleCare/warranty.
    Don't get me started about them denying security updates for 10.5 uses since July 2011.
    Intel 10.5 got a mid May update, only because there is a 600,000 strong Mac botnet that they acted.
    Apple is good at getting customers, not good at keeping them.

  • Multiple libraries, Pbook/Pmac, advice for management & updating please.

    Hi Everyone,
    I travel frequently, and am looking for suggestions to keep all my iPhoto libraries up to date. I currently have a g5, Powerbook, and Mini.
    I just upgraded to iPhoto 6 and I have several thousand photos on my Dual g5. I just came back with 1000 more from my diving trip. The problem is, they are on my Powerbook, and taking up alot of space on the relatively small hard drive. I managed to work through the rough upgrade from 5 to 6, and now I need some more help...
    1) What is your advice for managing multiple libraries of photos.
    2) What is the best way to transfer the iphoto pics (and movies) to my desktop, which of course has the larger storage capacity, after travelling...
    Thanks,

    Jason:
    There are several different approaches to what you want to do. Let me just throw out a couple that I'm familiar with.
    To get the new photos from your PB to your G5 and maintain any keywords, and other organization effort you put into them, you'll need the paid version of iPhoto Library Manager. It will allow you to merge libraries or copy between libraries and maintain the metadata, etc. That's the only way currently available to move photos from one library to another and keep the roll, keywords, comments, etc. with those photos. You can connect the two Macs with one in the Target Mode, probably your PB, and then run iPLM to move the photos to the G5 library.
    Now there is a way to have a library on your PB that reflects the one on your G5 but is only a fraction of the size. That's to have an alias based library on your PB that uses the Originals folder as its source of source files. (My 25,600 files, 27G, are represented by an iPhoto Library folder of only 1.75G). When the PB is not connected with the G5, say with a LAN, it will have limited capabilities which are in part: you'll only be able to view the thumbnail files, be able to add comments, create, delete or move albums around, add keywords (but with some hassle-but it can be done). You can't do anything that requires moving thumbnails around, work with books, slideshows or calendars. Once the two computers are networked together again the library will act as normal.
    Now while on the road you can have a "normal" library to import new full sized files, keyword them, add comments, etc. and then transfer to the G5 library. Once in the G5 library they will be represented in a roll(s) and corresponding folder in the Originals folder. You then fire up the "alias" library, and import those new folders in the G5 Originals folder.
    It may be a lot of work but it may be one way of doing it.
    I've not done any of the "sharing" with iPhoto so don't know if that's another possible candidate for transferring.
    P.S. FWIW I've created this workflow for converting from a conventional library to an alias based one.

  • Battery stuck at 0%, looking for course of action

    Hello everyone, this is my first time posting on these forums so if I miss anything, I apologize in advance.
    I'm currently working on a 17" MBP, version 4.1 (2.6Ghz & 4Gb ram). About 5 days ago, I was working on it with no problems whatsoever (really love this machine). I went on a small business trip for several days, and today is my first day back working on this machine. The battery is currently stuck at 0% and is not charging.
    So far, here are the actions I've taken, after reading what others have said on the forums and from simply google'ing around.
    I have tried the obvious, powering off, removing the batter/adapter, replacing the battery, then letting the computer sit with the adapter in it powered off for 20 minutes. turning it on revealed the same problem.
    I then attempted an SMC reset and a PRAM reset as defined by other help files.
    I do not have a digital multimeter available to me at the moment, so I cannot test the output of the adapter, although I have tried it in multiple outlets.
    Here is the information from my system information file:

    Reading through all of this, it appears to me that not only the battery should be good, but it actually believes it is currently charging. Are there any other resets I should consider doing or any other courses of action to take?
    Thank you all in advance for your time and knowledge,
    Joe

    Are you using a BB original charger? If not you need to. I've tried other non-BB and they won't charge the PB for some reason. The one from the box can take up to 10 hours or more. Is the little lightning bolt indicator on the battery indicator? I assume you plugged the charger in the middle plug on the BB. Try the charger on a phone to make sure it's not dead.
