  I had a $1,000 contract to advertise with iHeart Media that I paid upfront. Once the advertisement was over, the company kept sending me bills for the advertisement that I already paid. I would like iHeart Media to correct this so my credit is not affected.

  This complaint is for IHeart which is a radio broadcast company that we separated from years ago as Clear Channel Outdoor. It should be redirected to them.

  Thanks

  I met with my rep **** to discuss billboards VERBALLY. After the first billing cycle I paid there company with a check that she came to pick up. After I had received another **** I called her repeatedly to ask her and state to her I did NOT want the ****** street board on a long term contract. After failed attempts of her returning my phone calls and time still going, I reached out to their Accounts receivable department and had email and verbal communications with ********* She too NEVER got back with and time is still going. Finally I spoke with ***** who told me I signed a contract and they need there money. I explained to him that the rep understood me when I said I didn NOT want that board on long term. I emailed and called her. I sent her text. I asked ***** to forward my message to his supervisor for a resolution. The reason I am writing this today is because I am appalled - His supervisor ********************* was so incredibly rude and nasty in his delivery of speaking to me. I completely can't believe how he was talking to me. I had him on speaker phone with witnesses. I never disputed not paying for the services I was clearly stating " I did not want the board on long-term contract" He kept being NASTY saying ma'am you signed the contract, you need to pay or I am going to send you to collection. He was completely ignoring the fact that I told his rep that I didn't want the board on long term,. Not one time did she say they don't cancel contracts. He made is sound as though in february the end of the term I want to not pay. I sent text, emails, to there AR rep ******** as well as ***** and him. He did not care - he said pay! I did tell him he needs to learn customer service soft skills, he told me what I needed to learn to do and the phone hung up...
