Still getting collection notices from the IRS.

[tigergem]

Why do I get such an evil feeling of sheer delight when creditors don't play by the rules?



Does this make me a bad person?

[justbroke]

No. I always wanted them to contact me so I can try that sanctions thing.

[tigergem]

I was thinking about that.

Last month when I got a notice, the lady was really nice when I called. She said "Oh we aren't allowed to do that!" She apologized profusely and asked me to fax a copy of the BK notice to some department in Philadelphia so that the information could get entered into their computers properly. No problem. Happy to help.

The letter today really torqued me. "You haven't contacted us about this...". And today when I called them, the guy I talked to was a real jerk about it. Oh Mr. IRS Dude, do NOT be rude to me when you are so very WRONG. And especially not when I have actually written down your name and ID number and the time I spoke to you.

So ....If I try the sanctions thing, and if I succeed, who gets the money?

[justbroke]

You get the money, but the Trustee could try to get at it. Anyhow, this sounds ripe for a "Motion to Entry of Order to Show Cause and for Sanctions". They are actually trying to collect.

[tigergem]

Oh yeah, they are actually trying to collect. And trying to tack on interest now too. Well I need to get some dental work done, so I guess I better get busy.

If I am successful, Mr. T and I will just have to haggle about that, I reckon. He's not a terribly unreasonable guy.
