Company: ENCORE CAPITAL GROUP INC.
State: ND
Product: Debt collection
Sub-product: I do not know
Issue: Communication tactics
Sub-issue: You told them to stop contacting you, but they keep trying

Complaint:
This company continues to call my office number at work. They never say anything after you pick up, there is just dead air. With in seconds they then call my personal cell phone number which when you answer there is a recording stating all agents are busy and to hold. You hold, they come on the phone and do not announce who they are and will not tell you why they are calling unless you give them your social security number. 
They have been doing this for weeks now. I spoke with a representative on XX/XX/XXXX and told them they do not need to be calling my work number and to mail out any further communications if they need something instead of calling both my phone numbers 3-6 times a day. She was very rude and stated she will not mail out any notification because I would not give her my social. 

They need to stop harassing me and burning up my phone. They call from several different phone numbers numerous times per day. They spoof numbers in different area codes continuously. Today they have called from a XXXX area code and a XXXX area code alone. Both phone numbers.

Complaint:
I hope this letter finds you well. I am writing to bring to your attention a discrepancy in my credit report maintained by your bureau. Upon reviewing my credit history, I have noticed the presence of inaccurate late payments, which do not accurately reflect my payment history. 
I pride myself on being a responsible and diligent payer, consistently meeting my financial obligations on time. The reported late payments are inconsistent with my financial behavior, and I believe there has been an error in the reporting process. 
Account Information : BANK OF AMERICA XXXX Those payments were made on time. I am requesting that the late payment markings be updated to reflect my accurate payment history. 

I am kindly requesting a thorough investigation into this matter and the prompt correction of the inaccurate information on my credit report. I understand the importance of accurate credit reporting and the impact it has on my overall financial well-being. 
As such, I request your cooperation in rectifying this error as soon as possible.
