Clyde S. Walton, Inc. Complaint

Being Taken To Court Why???? - Oil

- 400 S. Broad Street, Lansdale, PA 19446
On May 25, 2008, I received a bill from Walton Oil stating that they delivered oil to my home. I have never ordered oil from them and never saw anyone from their company deliver any. I am on a prepay program with another company and have been for years. They were also charging me double per gal. then I pay. I called their co. May 27, 2008 and spoke to someone that said she would research it, but never received a call back. I received another bill the next month. I called them again right after I received it and this person told me to forget it, this was a mistake. I never received another bill from them and assumed that it had in fact, been taken care of.

In JANUARY 2011, I received a bill again from Walton's. The first since June of 2008 with finance charges and stamps of FINAL NOTICE on it. This time, when I called, I finally got ahold of one of the Walton's and explained to him that I had never ordered oil from their company, and was told by his own employee 3 years ago that it was a mistake and that they had taken care of it. He became very nasty with me and told me to pay it or he would take me to court. I didn't pay, he took me to court. The judge heard both our sides and said that he would get back to me in 5 business days with his decision. On November 18, 2011, I received the notice of judement from the courthouse stating that the judge is making me pay for the overpriced oil I supposedly received without asking for it and the court bill which comes to 476.71 which I don't have. Isn't there something called statute of limitations? I just don't understand how someone can do this.

Did you present the judge with proof of your prepay arrangement with the other company? What proof did Walton present that they delivered anything to you, let alone that you ordered anything from them? Granted it was small claims amount, but maybe you need to find a lawyer to help out. Hasn't your own oil provider backed you up?
