Company: Cascade Capital, LLC
State: TX
Product: Debt collection
Sub-product: Medical debt
Issue: Communication tactics
Sub-issue: Used obscene, profane, or other abusive language

Complaint:
I received multiple calls in one day, and per the caller, I was being sent to a collection from an unknown medical visit, to which I have heard nothing about from 4 years ago. I said the debt is NOT mine and that they were harassing me by calling me multiple times. the man speaking to me threatened me and told me I was wrong. I informed them that I am protected by law for surprise billing and to contact my congressman, the man did not know what a congressman was. I questioned his authority and that he was even a legitimate citizen of this country. he belittled me by saying that President Trump, who passed this law along with my congressman, was not to be called President. I told the man I was not going to argue with him about this and that if he called me anymore and did not let this go, I will file harassment against him. I then got a letter saying it is in collection and this company is Ability recovery services, in XXXX XXXX for {$340.00} I also would like to add that if this was a real bill that belonged to me, why did it take 4 years to be brought to my attention? 

Also, it says the company claiming I owe them from something 4 years ago, I have never done any business with.Why would I try to work something out with either of these companies when I don't even believe that this is my debt? I have Identity Theft affidavits on file both with my state and through the Federal level. How do I know if someone tried to falsely use my identity. Is this even a legitimate medical bill? Explain to me how Cascade Capital Funding is associated with a medical bill? I have never heard of such a place. I asked Ability Recovery to give me an itemized bill for this claim and they did not provide it to me. Who would pay a bill that sounds like some sort of extortion mafia who can not even prove that a bill belongs to me or what it is for. This reeks of FRAUD!!

Sub-issue: Attempted to collect wrong amount

Complaint:
I contacted the credit agency after viewing on my credit report that a bill had been sent to collections that I was not aware of years prior. I researched the company and called them. I paid the debt immediately and asked for a letter stating I had paid the collections and was requesting it be deleted from my credit report. They had not done so. Recently I called and spoke to a supervisor who advised me that I would not get a letter of deletion now even though I had requested one. He stated there was no way he would send a letter of deletion because my account was not paid in full, however, I had asked for the debt to be paid and when on the phone with the collector, it was communicated that I needed the debt off of my credit report and I therefore paid the amount they requested I pay. He still refused to send the letter.

Complaint:
I established a Military Star Credit Card with the government company known as AAFES from the years of XX/XX/XXXX to XX/XX/XXXX. While I had the card I endured hardship i.e. divorce with a new child, moving apartments, buying furniture. No longer having the additional income of a spouse, I got behind on the Military Star Card multiple times but made payments as much as I could. 
I was XXXX  discharged from the United States XXXX on XX/XX/XXXX due to injuries sustained from duty. I paid the Military Star Card balance off in full/entirely and closed the account on XX/XX/XXXX. AAFES performed a " hard '' close on the account so the account was sealed. 
Presently, AAFES is reporting to all three credit bureaus that the account had activity from XX/XX/XXXX-XX/XX/XXXX which included seven missed payments. Some 30 days, 60 days up to 90 days late. They took my past mistakes ( late payments ) I concurred before XX/XX/XXXX and reported them on the years of XX/XX/XXXX-XX/XX/XXXX when the account had been closed four to five years by then. 
They are tremendously impacting my credit negatively to keep updating this information. I have called numerous times about the issue just to be told " nothing can be done about it ''.
