Default A good outcome on the 2004 Western Clave Alamo Rental case...

Just posted this under the original thread too but have good news to report
to report on this case, hopefully. Just got this letter today from Purco,
the company attempting to settle the claim for Alamo:

Dear Michael Makela,

Upon further review of this claim we have decided to close the file in an
effort to retain good relations with you,
are valued customer. Your business is very important to us. No further
action is required from you,

Sincerely,

xxxxxxxx
Claim Specialist for Purco

Confirming with them that this absolves me from the claim with Alamo (not
just that Purco is washing their hands of it), but looks good. Thanks goes
out to everyone for all of the advice and help you all supplied.

Just to update what occurred. I went back and forth for a few weeks with
Purco before engaging my insurance company. They went back and forth with
Purco fighting the claim until Purco indicated that they were not going to
pursue a judgment in court against me, but that they would just pursue
collections, which would negatively affect my credit rating. My insurance
company would not pursue past this point as they said my policy didn't cover
defense against credit issues.

I then submitted letters/complaint to everyone I could find that may assist
including the Attorneys General Offices of Wyoming and Utah, the local (to
Jackson Hole) Better Business Bureau, the BBB on a national level, Wyoming
division of Banking, and the Wyoming Collection Agency Board. Within a week
I recvd this letter. I have a feeling it was the letter to the Attorney
Generals, or the Wyoming Collections Agency, but may never know.

Again, I thank everyone for your time and advice,

Cheers!!

Mike

Shows the virtue of stubbornly refusing to be put in the wrong and
then have to pay for it. Cool. Bet it was the AG's office that got
it done, but it might have been the sheer numbers of places you sent
letters and the corresponding number of "What's with this?" stuff
passed on to them. Made it obvious that you would fight to the end.
