Complaint sub-issue: Attempted to collect wrong amount

XX/XX/XXXX

To Whom It May Concern: 

I entered an agreement for debt collection with True Accord on   XX/XX/XXXX   to pay my debt owed to   XXXX   XXXX   XXXX  . I agreed to a discounted, two-payment option, to be withdrawn from my bank account on   XX/XX/XXXX   and   XX/XX/XXXX  . The agreement, for approximately   XXXX   per payment, did note I could pay off the debt early, if I chose to do so. (Email attached.)

I was eager to improve my credit. I attempted to make a second payment to close the account on   XX/XX/XXXX  . Instead of charging me the agreed-to second payment, True Accord debited my bank account for   XXXX ,  which is what was due if I had made a one-payment arrangement. 

I wont even get into the fact this could be a piece of failed computer code that could affect hundreds of True Accord customers, apart from myself. And that it would be in True Accords own interest to fix such a potential problem for other customers.

True Accord has no weekend support. Nor any sufficient online complaint process.

I immediately called on Monday morning to inform True Accord of its mistake, asking if I could take the one-payment term because the amount withdrawn on   XX/XX/XXXX   was equal to a one-payment agreement. And, of course, because the amount withdrawn had resulted in  three    XXXX   overdrafts and a returned   XXXX  p ayment to a separate credit card account.

On the positive side, the account was cleared with   XXXX    that day. That led to my credit score going up   XXXX   points, day over day, due to clearing my   XXXX   XXXX   debt.

True Accord refused to treat the   XXXX  d ebit as a one-time payment and refund t he  XXXX   payment I made on   XX/XX/XXXX  . True Accord offered  a  XXXX  r efund, which I agreed to accept because I had no other option. I told True Accord I would report them to the local  BBB  for their failure to provide proper computer coding to make correct debits.

The   XXXX  w as refunded to my account two days later. What I did discover, however, is that True Accord had reported my payment to   XXXX  , but then that credit dropped off my report the following day, after I threatened to complain. 

Whether this rescinded credit was due to my threat to make a BBB report is unconfirmed, but it has resulted in my credit being docked  XXXX  points.

I think refusing to adjustment payments  despite its mistake  makes True Accord  jerks . But rescinding a credit report correction, if it occurred, is unethical and unconscionable. I would like to be made financially whole for the mistake made by True Accord.

I am reporting this to all relevant agencies: OCCC and AG in Texas, the Consumer Finance Protection Bureau, plus   XXXX   XXXX  , True Accord and the  BBB  in   XXXX   XXXX  , plus   XXXX  ,  XXXX  and   XXXX   and my bank.
