Complaint:
On XX/XX/20, I moved from XXXX XXXX. I was never late with any payment to them. However in XXXX, I received a letter from a collections agency telling me that I owed {$61.00} to XXXX XXXX for missing equipment. ( XXXX has an exclusive agreement with XXXX to supply internet/cable to their tenants XXXX. I did leave the equipment as instructed by the apartment. I called the XXXX, XXXX told me that, per a signed agreement, I was supposed to return the equipment to the office. I never signed that agreement. I left a message for the manager XXXX to call me. She never did. I called XXXX, they said I owed them nothing. They never placed me in collections. A few days later, I received an email from Experian telling me I was in Collections by XXXX XXXX for {$210.00}. I dont know what I am charged for nor did I ever received a bill. I paid it because of similar horror stories from ex tenants who were wrongly persecuted for years by XXXX. These stories are all documented on their reviews. Along with the reviews, there was a newspaper article relating the same experience. Please do something to stop these illegal practices by this company. This is extra income for them. Please help. BTW, throughout my five years there, I was constantly unhappy with their services.

Complaint:
In XX/XX/2018 I disputed a fraudulent account with reporting a false incorrect social security number tied to this account on my TransUnion credit file. The discovery was made that the Debt Collection Company named XXXX XXXX XXXX, Original Creditor XXXX XXXX has used the name on my credit file to falsely and fraudulently place the said account with a fraudulent social security number that does not identify me. TransUnion Dispute result claims the information is correct even though it is obvious the social security number XXXX XXXX XXXX has provide to TransUnion does not match that of my true identifying social security number.

Company: CCS Financial Services, Inc.
State: MA
Product: Debt collection
Sub-product: Other debt
Issue: Attempts to collect debt not owed
Sub-issue: Debt is not yours

Complaint:
Good Afternoon ; i'm actually really shocked due to the repeated phone calls, used abusive language about an alleged XXXX debt for {$930.00} that i don't recall ever owning or had any prior relationship with XXXX nor CCS collection agency. I was shocked when I reviewed my credit report this week and I found multiple inaccuracies on my credit report from the 3 major credit bureaus from a collection company that I never have dealt with before. I've attempted several times to ratify the issue with the original creditors and credit bureaus and they still reporting inaccurate, unverifiable information. I have disputed this item with the credit reporting agency and they reported you confirmed the account as valid. I honestly do not believe to ever have any relationship with this collection agency or original creditor. Also there are several inaccuracies with this account the way it's reporting and that's a total violation of FCRA and FDCPA laws and regulations. In a good faith effort to resolve the matter amicably, I must demand proof of this debt, specifically the alleged contract or other instrument bearing my signature, as well as proof of your authority in this matter. Absent such proof, you must correct any erroneous reports of this past debt as mine. I am writing to request that you please provide the following information : 1. Please evidence your authorization under 15 USC 1692 ( e ) and 15 USC 1692 ( f ) in this alleged matter. 2. What is your authorization of law for your collection of information? 3. What is your authorization of law for your collection of this alleged debt? 4. Please evidence your authorization to do business or operate in this state. 5. Please evidence proof of the alleged debt, including the alleged contract or other instrument bearing my signature. 6. Please provide a complete account history, including any charges added for collection activity. 
You have 30 days upon receipt of this letter to provide strict proof of contract. In the event you can not provide strict proof of contract, you must cease and desist any and all collection efforts and immediately remove any derogatory information reported to the consumer reporting agencies. In addition, you will need to provide me your agreement, in writing, that you are closing your file, ceasing collecting activity, and deleting all information related to this reference number from any and all credit reports youve furnished the information to. In the event you transfer this account to an attorney without providing proof of contract, and proving your claim, he/she will be immediate reported to the America Bar Association and Professional Liability Fund for code of ethics violations.
