I too have been sending money to Allegro to the tune of $340/mnth. I have always had a problem with their lack of written information - no monthly or quarterly statements - you have to call & ask for one to be sent.
I also had a cc company file suite against me and had a devil of a time reaching someone. They are horrible with returning phone calls and it was only because I was calling every hour that I finally got ahold of the person in the "legal" dept. Her voice mail said that she was out of the office, but when I finally reached her she said that she had been in NY @ the processing center and did not know why the operators did not find her there. Oh, and apparently they are not able to retrieve msgs remotely?!?!? Anyhow, the situation was resolved w/o going to court. Although, I know have to pay the entire bill (which is not a problem, I charged it, but that is not what Allegro promised) and pay it to the atty's for the cc company. Again, not a problem, but not the promised service.
I noticed this month that no money was withdrawn. When I called today (35+ minutes on hold), I was informed that a receiver had been appointed to handle Allegro's accounts and they were not allowed to process this month's debits. However, they have been "released" and are able to process this month's debits. When I asked why they were placed under receivership, she stated that "they" were not told, but it's ok now. When I expressed concern over not knowing why the company was placed in receivership, she said that she is just happy that she still has a job. Total denial of what got them there in the first place.
I have contacted the Alabama AG's office and am going to review all paperwork and monies. Will definitely be keeping an eye on this one.
