Avon Cosmetics Don't sell Avon if you are a student because this might happen to you!!! New York New York

I recruited to Avon in order to make a little money since i am a student and currently do not have a job but i am looking for one. I did not know my district manager as much even though I went to all the meetings except for one.

Anyway, I started selling as usual and it was going good. I did not make much money but I made it on my own. On the second or third campaign, I bought something that I could pay for myself as soon as I got the money. I had already used it by that time so I could not return it to be sold. After that campaign, it seemed like they just added more money to my account, even when I did not order anything.

When I did get some orders, they wouldn't give me my orders until I pay my overdue amount. I told my mom what happened, she paid my balance for me and I thought I was done paying for it. Finally, I got my stuff and got the money for it. I think I paid some of it, i am not sure.

I just stopped selling Avon without calling them because I did not know what they were going to say. I was just scared to tell them. I started getting notices to pay my balance which was about 100-200 dollars. I do not know why. I haven't sold anything since my last campaign.

It went from Avon to another collection agency. I did not answer to them because nobody wants to hear about a 19 year old who is a student and has no job and possibly no way of paying a balance.

After that Avon called me with a lady who I know had a bad attitude saying if I don't pay my balance of 230.84 now that they would sue me and it would be a felony charge.

The day after that, I got a call from Allied Data Corporation saying I had to pay the balance in full or that I would get sued. Of course, I got on a payment plan that I could pay 100 this month and 130.84 next month anytime.

To this day, I am still struggling with paying 100 dollars because I don't have a job and my mom can't help me. So I called my representative from ADC to see if I could have an extension on my first payment. I don't have time for court issues
and legal fees.

I have enough problems than worrying about a stupid fee for a company who thinks they sell natural products but all products are not natural. I have to wait for a phone call tomorrow to see about the extension. I think that Avon and ADC is a big ripoff! Learn from my mistakes. Texas should up the age limit and let adults at least 21 and over sell because people in that age level have more experience in that stuff!
