Today as I strolled to the office I was thinking about how my life was financially getting back on track that my debts where wearing off and I could finally breath easy knowing that no big corporations where going to send their goons around to knock me into shape until I payed up! And if I didn’t pay up they where going to slowly torture me with a little Japanese man who is famous in the underworld for pulling the human body apart with chop sticks whilst keeping the person alive for up to 48 hours.
So I was feeling quite happy, I decided to ring optus to see when they could re-instate my mobile phone service, and they tell me in the next two weeks they are going to issue me with a $400+ fee “disconnection fee”. I can’t just re-connect my plan and keep paying that. My phone number will be re issued into the system in two weeks, I can retain my number if I move to optus prepaid within the next 2 weeks.

Back to square one, this is still defiantly the international month of debt collection
