I posted this more than a year ago and haven't written most of them up. The Perry one I have, so a post is linked below. I shall proceed to document them, or at least the ones I can turn into an interesting story.

I owed them $2000 for unpaid therapy bills. They didn't want $100/month, they wanted it all now. Took me to small claims court. The judge told them to take the $100/month, which I paid.

it surprises me they'd put so much effort into it when you're paying.

It surprised me too, and surprised the judge. Anyway they were quite pleasant and polite to me after that dealing with the payments. I wonder if they just had a financial person there for a while who should have been a client.
