State: AZ
Product: Debt collection
Sub-product: Credit card debt
Issue: Took or threatened to take negative or legal action
Sub-issue: Sued you without properly notifying you of lawsuit

Complaint:
The company XXXX XXXX has been attempting to collect a debt from a credit card I obtained when I was unmarried. I worked as a bartender and lost my job and became behind on all bills during Covid-19. They served my husband with the court documents when I wasn't home. The credit limit for the card was {$3000.00} and they are requesting I pay {$4200.00} because of late fees, etc. They have submitted a judgement to try to hold my husband accountable for this debt as I got married in XXXX of XXXX. We had a mediation and the company did not accept my lump sum offer of {$1500.00}. They are willing to settle for {$2900.00} ( after supposedly speaking with their client XXXX XXXX  ). They did not notify me that they had declined my lump sum offer. They also stated I could make payments for the total amount {$4200.00} with no negotiation. I have been settling other debt with companies for less than half of what I owe. They again, declined my offer. The website makes you agree to certain terms and conditions before you can log in to see your account. They submit paperwork with XXXX XXXX listed but they clearly bought this debt and are trying to get as much as they can, in the most incessant ways. The terms and conditions aren't listed. Their business practice is aggressive, unethical and shameful.

Complaint:
Despite multiple attempts, I have been unable to resolve the issue of fraudulent inquiries appearing on my consumer report. These inquiries are not associated with me in any way, and I bear no responsibility for them. Their presence has caused significant mental and financial distress. As a victim of identity theft, I have no alternative but to consider legal action if this matter is not appropriately addressed. These inaccurate and fraudulent items on my consumer report have hindered my ability to purchase my dream house and provide for my family 's needs. The impact on my financial well-being has been substantial. For your reference, I have attached a copy of the letter I previously sent to the Federal Trade Commission ( FTC ), which outlines this issue and seeks resolution.
