Consumer Complaint: I closed account with XXXX XXXX XXXX and XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX about 3 years ago. I closed the account at XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX and paid whatever balances I had. Then I received a bill again after closing so I went to the XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX and checked with them for whatever balances I have to pay, Then they told me to return the internet and cable boxes with XXXX and I did so this balance maybe voided. I checked with them for all my balances and there was none and confirmed that my account is already closed. Besides, I pay my bills automatically online. I was surprised that this company which really does not have any customer service ethics sent this alleged debts to various billing collector agents which have bugged me for more than 3 years now. This has even done a great dent on my credit score. During the first few months, I kept receiving calls and letters from them, just to settle the debts, I sent them a check for XXXX which they were asking at that time, I don't remember which collector that was. Since I'm paying online I don't have any receipts and I couldn't find the receipts I paid XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX. Today I received this bill XXXX from ERC with all the provisions for payments. It is not that I do not like to pay, but I know in my heart that I do not owe XXXX XXXX XXXX any amount. Truth is they even duped us of the packages that they offered at that time. You can check all my credits and there isn't a single complaints on me except this, which I know I do not have any liability whatsoever. Please help me with this. I would appreciate should any action be taken especially now during this unprecedented times.

Consumer Complaint: I was in the process of buying a house, so I had alerts set up on my credit karma. I get an alert saying new collections account. It was this one, I panicked and called them immediately. I went ahead and settled the payment but this still altered my approval to purchase my home. I would have at least liked to have notice before also it states the account was opened in XX/XX/XXXX when it was closed in XXXX. Seems very unfair to wait this long and then sneak attack me. The timing couldnt have been worse this has been a nightmare.

Consumer Complaint: on XX/XX/2020 I sent out a request for the Collection agency to provide me with validation of date. I told them to include a copy of the judgement in writing, complete accounting of debt which includes loan amount, payments, interest, and any fees associated with the loan. I also requested that they provide me with the original contracts with signatures.If not provided to me then I am requesting deletion for violation of the FDPCA. On XX/XX/2020, I received a notice from ERC stating that they provided me with requested documents. Upon receipt I noticed that they actually did not send what was requested and are using stall tatics instead if providing what I asked of them. I do not believe I owe them anything, especially if I cant be provided what are my debt is reporting to the bureau. Please assist I have attached all documents for reference

Consumer Complaint: On XX/XX/XXXX I received a notification from my credit monitoring system that a new collection has been reported by Enhanced Recovery Collections for a XXXX XXXX XXXX account. I was immediately upset about this. I immediately called them and attempted to resolve the account. My conversation with the Enhanced Recovery agent informed me that this account was for an old account from XXXX, and that they had received the assignment in XXXX of XXXX. I informed the agent that I was upset that I had not received any written notifications about this account BEFORE it was placed on my credit report. I was clear that should I have received the written notification that I would of paid it on the spot. The agent informed me that they had not been able to mail anything out to me to inform me of the collection due to the fact that they received the account right as the Covid 19 Pandemic was declared. I was appalled that they refuse to delete this account from my credit report even after they admit they were not able to properly send out a first dunning notice to me as prescribed by Federal and State Debt Collection laws. I tried another phone call and tried to again give them a payment in full but they again would not want to commit to removing this from my credit report. I opted to visit my local XXXX XXXX office and pay it in person. This account has been paid in full and I demand a removal from my credit report.

Consumer Complaint: XXXX store manager breached my contract and canceled the account I had within their computer and then refused to correct the mistake saying their computer would not allow the account to be reinstated. I went into XXXX to get two new phones and add them to my account. For some reason, the store manager ( by accident ) created an entirely new account ( XXXX was told by XXXX upon calling ) and canceled the current contract. I don't know exactly what happened because I obviously was not given access to their computer. Bottom line is they canceled the contract within the computer, my phone numbers eventually canceled out and that was when I realized something was wrong. XXXX breached the contract. I repeatedly tried to get the account reinstated and everything put back in place and XXXX simply said their system would not allow it after three months elapsed. Now they have reported the account to collections and put it on my credit report. I paid my current XXXX bill throughout the process.
