SKS Associates Northern Leasing Charged our account for underbilled property taxes on credit card machine lease which ended in 2005. New York, New Yor
30th of Mar, 2011 by User108918
We leased a credit card machine from Northern Leasing in 2001. The lease was satisfied in 2005 and they stopped charging our account the monthly fee. The lease at that time was bogus enough, but we blindly signed it (hindsight is 20/20) and there was no way out of the lease. Lesson learned and we though that was the end of it, until today. We were charged $103.92 from SKS Associates aka Northern Leasing....we were dumbfounded...as were many other people on this site. We did not receive the letter of warning others have received. I called the company twice this morning already. Both times I asked for an itemized listing of my payments and a specific description of what taxes I owe. The first agent only faxed a copy of our lease. The second agent has yet to fax anything. I am just bewildered at the fact it has been over 5 years since we returned the credit card machine and they are just now charging my account. Both agents I spoke with assured me there is no statute of limitations and it was perfectly legal for them to charge our account without notification since we signed the original lease. We were so ripped off with the lease in the first place, it makes me sick. But this time it is just like opening an old scar to pour salt in it. I was able to reverse the charge to our account because I caught it in time, however, I was told by an SKS Associates' agent that they will be sending me an invoice. If the invoice is unpaid, it will be forwarded to collections. I don't know if it is worth paying the $103.92 as to not mess up our credit report. I am not sure how this company can continue to get away with their misleading and fraudulent practices. I know if we tried to charge a customer for an error from 5 years ago, they would laugh at us or report us...furthermore, I would never attempt it.
