Central Subscription Service Dishonest business practices Coon Rapids Minnesota

This is one of the most dishonest companies I have ever had the DISPLEASURE of dealing with. I had one account with them already. In November I received a call from a representative of this company asking if my magazines were arriving on time and in good condition, and wanting to make sure all information (name, DOB, address, payment amount and method, etc) were correct and current. He said that they would send me an updated magazine list in case I wanted to change what magazines I was receiving. I never received this list, or any other correspondence from the company.

Today, January 12, 2015, I received a call from another representative of the company named Jordan. She said my payment for my renewal service - which I never agreed to - was past due. She would not let me speak to a supervisor or manager, and would only agree to reduce the amount owed instead of cancelling the account as I requested. She played the phone call from November, but a large chunk of the call was left out. All that played was me confirming my information, as I was asked to do by the representative. The recording did not include the discussion we had about prior to that segment that was recorded. Today I was forced to agree to 6 payments of over $300 each to close out both my original account and the renewal account I did not want in the first place, or else have the bill be sent immediately to collections.
