We are willing to accept a credit card payment for 1/3 of the total costs now, as a deposit for the work to be done. Once the transcript is released to you, we would charge your card another 1/3 after 30 days, and the remaining 1/3 after 60 days. While I understand that this may not have been what was explained to you the time of scheduling, we simply cannot stray from our new client/pre-payment policy. I hope you can understand that this was an unfortunate matter of miscommunication, and can agree to this new solution.I have attached a new credit card form, which now reflects 1/3 if the total costs which I quoted you yesterday (including the 10% discount we offered). We will charge this amount now, and the remaining balance at a future date. In addition, please be aware that we cannot do any of this until we have a physical address for you on file as well. We are not able to enter you into our system (and therefore not able to get you a transcript) without that information. Please provide that when returning the attached credit card form.Thank you again,[redacted]Midwest Billing ManagerVeritext Reporting312.508.6072-----Original Message-----From: [redacted]Sent: Thursday, April 07, 2016 1:42 PMTo: [redacted]Subject: RE: Deposition on March 30, 2016Ms. [redacted]With all due respect, there is absolutely no way in which it could have been "assumed" that I was "calling" on behalf of [redacted] - none.I was asked for my name, [redacted], and the name of the case - [redacted] et al.I also informed you that [redacted] represented [redacted] - the person being deposed - and that is why it was being done at [redacted].Lawyers representing the deponent do not pay for the deposition - it is the person doing the deposition that pays for the deposition.So, again, there is absolutely no way in which anyone could have assumed anything other than I was seeking a court reporter for a deposition I was doing - none.As stated previously, I would very much like to settle this matter amicably.If not, I have filed a complaint with the Revdex.com - and am being told that you are in violation of the State of Wisconsin Deceptive Trade Practices Act and other consumer protection statutes.Once again, I am willing to settle is matter amicably - by agreeing to what was originally agreed - obtaining the transcript, being billed, and paying.Thanks as always,[redacted]--------------------------------------------On Wed, 4/6/16, [redacted] wrote: Subject: RE: Deposition on March 30, 2016 To: "[redacted]> Date: Wednesday, April 6, 2016, 12:11 PMMr.[redacted] [redacted] asked that I reach out to further explain our billing process.
