Well, even if they can't provide the contract, they can still charge the state limit on interest, not sure what it is for that state. The above suggestions are great and you should do so immediately...even if you know you owe, it is your right to DV for the simple fact that too many disreputable CAs and JDBs will try to tack on fees and interest they are not legally able to, just because most people don't realize this or that get intimidated by the CAs.
