Blue Gavel Press Dishonest Tactics, Worthless Product, Liars Rock Island Illinois

The short version: This company sent our clinic unsolicited material on OSHA Compliance, then sent us to a collection agency when we refused to pay for it.

Blue Gavel "sales" people (Lying, worthless, scam artists, really), called our clinic, and told our receptionist they needed to confirm our address to send material about OSHA Compliance. They shoved past her questions, telling her only OSHA Complaince was required by the government, and this was information we were required to have.

After getting her to give them her name, and "confirm" our clinic address they told her they were sending information. A few days later our clinic received a binder I could buy at K-mart filled with information I can print off from the Internet, and an invoice for nearly $300.

During the call, they never said they were selling anything. They never once mentioned anything would need to be paid for, only repeated it was required information. They never asked permission to send the information, only that they were going to send it. They never asked to speak to anyone with the authotiry to spend the doctor's money.

After several harassing phone calls, in which they were told we would not pay for unsolicited material, OR return it at our own expense, we began receiving calls from a collection agency called Greenberg, Grant & Richards. They offer to accept a discounted amount to "clear up this deliquent account," then hand up when we mention lawyers. But they only call back again after a few weeks.

If Blue Gavel calls you, call the person terrible names and then HANG UP. If anyone from Blue Gavel reads this: Find some honest work, you criminals!
