C.C asked:


We talked about 1.5 weeks ago then through 1 email then they stopped responding to me. Can they send me to collections before we are finished talking, I read some place that they can’t since I contacted them well before the 10 day limit they gave before sending to collections. Not sure how valid it was though.

Main issue is they claim I owe money I said I’d pay if if they gave some information to me, I asked for info in 2 emails and they wouldn’t respond. I talked in person, on phone with their law dept and in email before they cut me off.

thanks

My friend was sponsored by Company X to come over here (US) and work as a nurse. It has been a month now, she has not started work because of the processing of the SSS, license and negotiation with the employer to amend the terms stated on the contract. Now, she got hold of her license and SSS. Frustrated, she is planning to seek part time employment from Company Y. While waiting a decision from Company X. Will this person breach any law or contarcts?

My brother broke his wrist and is unable to do what the school requires him to do for physical education, but the school refuses to sit him out. They keep saying its a law that he must complete the course, but he cant.
