My question involves collection proceedings in the State of: maryland
Hello i have a problem i need advice on. I have a ez pass and i signed up for the commuter plan. well they was taking it out of my bank account. well 3 months ago I overdraft. so they sent me a bill for 35 bucks which they take out a month. well i use my other card to pay them and thought i switched it over to that card. well this brings me to now. i got a letter in the mail saying i owe 500 dollars. i called them up and i was told that they raised it from .75 a toll to 4.50 a toll. i told them that if i signed uo for .75 a toll why cant i just send you a check for the actual amount i owe 97.00 they said they cant do it. so i asked to speak to a manager the she got mad and put me on hold for 20 mins until they closed and said they arent in and they will give meva call in 5 to 10 days and she hung up.
my question is can i send them a check in good faith for 100 in good faith and write paid on full? to close the debt. because to me a 600% bill increase is outrageous. so should i just let it go to collections or try to fight it in court?
