Company: The Law Offices of Mitchell D. Bluhm & Associates

Complaint:
I received a letter in the mail from a company called The Law Offices of Mitchell D. Bluhm & Associates , LLC. The letter is dated XXXX XXXX and describes a debt that is attempting to be collected from dates of service XXXX and XXXX with a company named XXXX XXXX at XXXX XXXX in XXXX, AZ. I am a very financially responsible and organized individual who pays any bills owed as soon as possible and have incredible credit history with no overdue bills in my life. I never received a bill from XXXX XXXX back in XXXX  and this is the first that I am hearing about this outstanding debt. I spoke with a woman at The Law Offices of Mitchell D. Bluhm & Associates , LLC this morning ( XXXX ) and she told me that I can dispute the claim if I'd like ( for the amount of {$210.00} ), but that my credit will still be hit on XXXX regardless. Her solution was to file a police report if I don't believe that the debt was mine. I next called XXXX XXXX 's billing department and spoke with a woman there the same morning ( XXXX ) and she stated that I have no outstanding balance with them and that it shows that everything was paid in full by my insurance from those dates. She mentioned that they use another company for their imaging and that I should try getting in touch with XXXX XXXX to see why they sent me to collections without ever sending me a bill. I tried contacting XXXX Partners on XXXX and after several minutes of the phone ringing, my call was disconnected. I researched both XXXX XXXX and the Law Offices of Mitchell D. Bluhm & Associates , LLC, and I read several XXXX reviews and complaints with the XXXX  which state very similar situations to mine. It seems many people have received notices from this debt collection company for dates of service from over 2 years ago and had not received any notices of outstanding bills prior to hearing from the collection company.

XXXX XXXX sent me an email describing a bundling package where they handle the billing for the internet services and XXXX XXXX in one package. The price was {$89.00} + tax for both internet and TV services. I called and qualified the items on the email I received from XXXX with the XXXX sales person and he said yes! that is the package I will sign you up for. I asked him to send an email confirming that and he said he needs to complete the sign up process and needs my credit card before he can do that. After installation, the installation Teck. asked me to sign saying that he had finished installation and that I was satisfied with the installation and I did. 3 day later not receiving my email confirmation from XXXX or XXXX I called both of them and they said they would not honor the email sent from XXXX and if I cancelled the {$200.00} a month service they will charge me a early termination fee of {$450.00}. I did cancel and I did not pay their extortion money. Two items have been placed on my credit report. 1. from XXXX who sold it to ( XXXX XXXX ) and they list it as in collection for {$440.00} 2. From XXXX who list it as a charge off for {$240.00}. These two actions have dropped my FICO score from XXXX to XXXX. These are the only derogatory remarks on what was a very solid and well earned credit score. I would like to have both of these items removed. I will attach the email I received from XXXX and the last billing statement from XXXX. Thanks! Sincerely " Victim of XXXX purchasing XXXX XXXX ''

Company: Diversified Consultants, Inc.

Complaint:
Dear CFPB : A collection agency, XXXX XXXX XXXX or XXXX sent a standard form letter advising I owed XXXX {$30.00}. I disputed the debt and requested they provide validity of the debt. They subsequently sent the same standard letter provided the first time. 

As a result, I provided evidence that the debt was paid in full over a year ago and again asked for concrete proof that an additional {$30.00} was owed. Instead of providing the additional evidence, they forwarded the debt to another collection agency ; the account number, amount of debt are all the dame, excpept a new debt collector, Diversified Consultants XXXX Inc., is now assigned. 

It appears the debt collection is a scam or sham. The debt collectors are in violation of the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act. Instead of providing validity of the so-called debt that is in dispute, they simply transfer collection responsibility. The end result I am being hassled with having to enforce my rights against a bogus claim which is wasting my time and energy. 

In addition, they are not in compliance with the 30 day notification requirement. They date their correspondence one day and the postmarked is a much later date and by the time I get the mail I have XXXX14 days to respond. I ask that you investigate these companies as follows : XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX XXXX XXXX : XXXX Amount Due : {$30.00} Creditor Account # : XXXX CCS File Number : XXXX XXXX XXXX or XXXX Diversified Consultants , Inc .

Company: CITIBANK, N.A.

Complaint:
I opened my CITI secured card in XX/XX/XXXX. By XX/XX/XXXX, my secured card was closed and my e statements were restricted shortly after that. In XX/XX/XXXX, on numerous occasions I called in to inquire about my Citi bank credit card. The debt is listed on my credit report as failed to pay. Citi bank has horrible customer service representatives that are not thorough when review information or providing the facts that I requested. I paid a security deposit to my account so when my account was closed the amount owed was XXXX. I was charged fees that were not valid and Citi has refused to address my concerns for the past year. In XX/XX/XXXX, I formally filed a dispute via mail and receive a generic response stating that Citi was favored in the dispute process which is overtly biased based on their internal team review the account. I never got information that I requested about contacting the credit management department or any other department beside their recovery team who have been little to no help. Their ways of handling consumers and their monies are erroneous. It's a power struggle working with a big company that has created a maze of tunnels so that consumers are frustrated befor their concerns are met with solutions. In summary, I do not owe any amount over the balance after my account was credited. I would like to have a manager from the credit department contact me about this matter. Also, I would like to be provided a letter with the date of closure and reason why the account was closed in the first place.
