Case of the Week: 3/20/06

County: Wood
Age: 87

Our client contacted us after she received a statement in the mail from Capital One with charges for privacy protection. She recalls having been solicited by Capital One via telephone. My client is elderly and hard of hearing. She never wanted the card, but she was signed up anyway with privacy protection after the initial solicitation. I sent a letter disputing the charges and requesting her account be closed since she never authorized the card in the first place. My client received confirmation that her balance with Capital One is now zero and the account has been closed.
