  1. I think you were,if you never applied OR activated the card,then they are in the wrong…TAKE SOME ACTION!

    If you never used or activated the card you never got service from them. You do not have to pay for services you never received. Contact the company again and tell them that and that they need to remove it from your report. Make sure they understand that you never used the card and didn’t want it. They can’t make you pay for something you don’t have.
