Issue: Attempts to collect debt not owed — Debt was already discharged in bankruptcy and is no longer owed
Company: NIC, Inc. (TX)

Last fall ( XX/XX/XXXX ) I received a letter in the mail from XXXX XXXX regarding an outstanding medical debt that was discharged in bankruptcy. That day I was upset and abusive and I ceased contact after filing g a XXXX complaint. 

Today XX/XX/XXXX I was going through my credit report and noticed that the debt that I owed was discharged in bankruptcy. I attempted to call XXXX XXXX today and they outright refuse to speak to me and all I want to know is who sold my debt to them. They were collecting on a debt that was discharged in  bankruptcy and I paid the company that sold the debt to XXXX   before the bankruptcy occurred, but I made that payment after it had already been discharged so Im just trying to find out who had the debt before them since I dont remember so I can get my money back. 

They refuse to talk to me today, accused me of being rude today, and keep hanging up on me. Its a simple information request. I also paid XXXX XXXX XXXX dollars at one point and that was also post bankruptcy. This company has attempted to collect on a discharged debt via mail and they owe me the XXXX dollars I paid them to get them off my back when they were actively calling me post bankruptcy.

Company: EQUIFAX, INC. (GA)

I have emailed, called, and sent in letters to all three credit reporting agencies to have the bankruptcies showing on my credit report removed due to how they obtained this information. They claim the court gave them this information even though I have sent in a copy of the letter from the court themselves saying that they have do not share information with any credit agencies. I have asked as recently as XX/XX/2023 with Equifax that it remove the bankruptcy from my report, but they refuse to do and keep saying that the court verified the bankruptcy. This has been going on for a couple of years now and I would like it stop. I even sent a letter to XXXX who claims that they got the information from the court, which I sent a copy of the letter stating that the statement they made was indeed false, and they refuse to remove it from my report.
