Karate school forgets to pick up my son...
Hi, my son was in an afterschool martial arts program. The elementary school told me that they are repeatly late, they have to call to see where they are at and on one occasion my son told the driver to leave saying that I was going to give him a ride. The driver left and no one verified that I actually had my son (I was in a parent/teacher conference!). The last occurrence the center was over an hour late and told the school office that they forgot! When I went to see them they told me that it was "no big deal" that I could "withdrawal my son but they would not let me out of the contract". I told them that they endangered my son when they forgot and breached the contract. The billing company told me that it is up to them to call to cancel but that I was obligated to the contract. I told them that I refused to pay for services. My son is also in counseling for emotional issues of which this center was well aware of. Oh to top it, had they been another 15 minutes later the school would have called the police! The down side is that the elementary school won't write me a letter for the billing company because the board advised them that they are a 3rd party. What do I do now? Thanks for the help.
