Consumer Complaint: I had a contract with XXXX that initiated on XX/XX/XXXX . After having XXXX services performed, I noticed my lawn deteriorating. I reached out to XXXX and expressed my concerns. They blamed it on our lack of rain, although I had been watering the lawn myself and incurring the additional expense on my water bill. On XX/XX/XXXX I called and spoke with XXXX at XXXX . I informed her that I wished to discontinue my agreement with XXXX because my lawn looked much worse than when I started. She assured me that my account had been noted and that no additional charges would be made. The area manager, XXXX ( XXXX ) XXXX called me on XXXX and said that he was sorry for the poor service that I had received and that he was going to come and evaluate my yard to see if there was anything they could do to win back my business. He said that he would remove the unauthorized charges from my account. As of today ( XX/XX/XXXX ), I have never seen or heard from them again. I am now receiving collection notices from Transworld Systems for the {$230.00} amount. I have written to them explaining all of this, however they continue to attempt collection. I do not want this to tarnish my credit. PLEASE HELP

Consumer Complaint: This is in response to CF PB Claim Number XXXX . In the original CFPB claim XXXX , I stated I did not owe any debt and that I wanted to contest. I said I had aske d Transworld for an itemized invoice but they did not provide one. It seems Transworld responded by sending another invoice that IS NOT itemized. I will not pay an invoice that is not itemized, especially if I have never done business with Transworld or the debt they are allegedly trying to collect in the place of XXXX . I have not used XXXX in recent memory.
