      Better Business Bureau:

      I have reviewed the response made by the business in reference to complaint ID ********, and have determined that this does not resolve my complaint.  For your reference, details of the offer I reviewed appear below.

      We received the attached letter from the business. However today, ***** just tried to deliver another unsolicited package from the business that we have again refused. The matter appears to remain unresolved as we are still getting contact from the business.

      Regards,

      We have been receiving frequent calls from this company after telling them that we would reach out should we need anything further in the future; time and time again, they call back. We have taken it upon ourselves to hang up on the person calling instead of wasting everyone's time with their buy this or buy that pitch.

      The Company has received invoices over the past 3 months for services not provided. We have never contacted ************************* for service, employment, or had anything other business dealings with *************************. However, we started to receive multiple "scam invoices" requesting thousands of dollars. I've attached the most recent invoices. Thank you for looking into this. Sincerely, HR Manager.

      I used their service online to file a **** (heavy highway use tax) with the **** After I filled in most of my information including my credit card information. I was informed I would have to use another service to pay the actual tax of $550. They would not be able to use my credit card to pay it. Which is why I needed to use their service. I called them on the phone. They told me they can't help me and they refused to refund my money or credit my card. They provided no service and refused to give me my money back.

      ** Keller has been calling and harassing our business over and over again or months. When we first started our business we ordered a few products from them before we hired a consultant and now they just won't quit calling. They kept calling around April/May 2022 and every time they call it sounds like a scam and that it is legally required to have whatever product they are trying to hack. They also tried to convince me that we had some type of subscription service. We told them we had hired a DOT/Safety ***************** and we didn't need anything. I thought we had gotten rid of them. Just when I thought we had finally gotten rid of them, today they called and claimed we had an open invoice and they needed it paid or they were going to send us to collections. I told them no one on our team had ordered and to email me proof of authorization for this purchase. They instead sent me a $722.50 invoice #********** from 5.25.22 with absolutely no proof of authorization. I then followed up asking for proof of authorization again and they are claiming authorization was made over the phone and I asked for the recording as no one on our team has authorized this purchase and they are saying they legally cannot provide that. I then called the ** Keller direct line and spoke to someone that claimed they would have a supervisor cancel the order and that there would be no charge. I also told them that I didn't want to speak to the sales agent and he keeps emailing me with bullying/scam tactics, even asking for my business partner's information after I told him that I had followed up with his supervisor and that they had canceled the charge. I want this charge removed as I have no proof of authorization and once the charge is removed I would like our entire business to be put on the do not contact list because at this point it's harassment, scamming, and bullying.

      To whom it may concern: Order# ******* I placed an order online from my account for a truck permit for the amount of $83.00. An agent called me to review the order and everything went accordingly. I get a notification my bank that an attempt for a charge of $206.51 from JJ Keller overnight. I call in the customer service and speak with a new agent inquiring why they are charging me this new amount and she tells me that's what the permits costs and they can't cancel because it has already been placed. I express that the agent never told me what the actual cost was when she placed the order and therefore I never agreed to pay the new incurred amount of $206.51. She stated the only thing she can do is review the call from the conversation over the phone I had with the previous agent and one of the other representatives will be in touch with me about the matter. I received and email breaking downs the cost and a letter stating the following: This notice is to confirm that after reviewing the information you disputed on order #*******, we have determined that the permits were ordered to match the way they were originally requested, and therefore you are responsible to pay for the charge of this permit. We listened to the call taken by our agent, and we found no record that the total cost of the OR permit was discussed. Well, EXACTLY my point it was NOT DISCUSSED. Your agent assumed that's what I needed . I never authorized to be charged for ****** and neither your agent disclosed that to me. I also requested a copy of the presumed recorded call ( which I have not been given as of 07/26) . Lastly, I would like a billing adjustment for the amount I placed the order for $83.00 and no more.
