Product: Debt collection — Other debt
Issue: Written notification about debt — Didn't receive notice of right to dispute
Company: ORG GC GP Buyer, LLC (MD)

Complaint:
On XXXX, I had received an alert through my credit monitoring that there was a new collection account reported. I immediately checked on this alert to find that a collection with an open date of XX/XX/2021 reported to all three credit bureaus for the first time. This came as a shock to me for several reasons. I've been in the process of purchasing a newly built home and have opened each and every piece of mail I've received since going under contract at the beginning of the year. I also am signed up with informed delivery through the XXXX which provides me with a daily scanned image of what's being delivered in my mailbox each day. I immediately knew this was going to be a financial and emotional challenge since my loan officer needed to update my final credit report to close on my home. The new collection has now disqualified me for the program I qualified for in which I could afford. This is turn has jeopardized my XXXX deposit on hand with the new home builder and placed me in a position where my child and I dont have a place to move to since my current rental has already been rented out. I had contacted XXXX directly to inquire on the debt. The only correct piece of information that they had for my account was my name. Any correspondence was sent to the address where service was held many years ago. The information provided didnt bode well with me based on dates of service and date of last bill and last payment made. I inquired on paying them in full in exchange for them instructing their hired collection agency to retract the debt. She informed me that they cant do that ; however, if I call collection company, they can help. I then called the collection agency and they too had no correct contact info. They didnt have a correct number to call me at and they mailed one debt notification to an incorrect address ( which allegedly wasnt returned ). I stated that I was willing to pay them in full in exchange for a deletion and was told theyd only report it as paid in full. This is completely unfair as I never was given any opportunity to validate the debt or rectify the situation. I had to learn about it based on an alert stating I had a new collection. I cant face telling my son that his XXXX present of having his own home, a determination Ive worked so hard on getting him as a single mother, was taken away from us, and that he will need to change schools since there isnt anything affordable to rent where hes been established.

Product: Debt collection — Other debt
Issue: False statements or representation — Attempted to collect wrong amount
Company: Aspen National Financial, Inc. (NJ)

Complaint:
Aspen National Collection is a third party debt collector that have called my phone numerous times until I asked them to stop harassing me for money that I don't own to them. I owe {$950.00} to the original party since XX/XX/2019 of this year for my maintenance fees. I am late on my payment because of hardship and the original party hired this company to collect the payment. Aspen have since reported an inflated outstanding debt totaling {$1300.00} to the credit bureaus, including their debt collection fee of {$390.00}. They are reporting to the credit bureaus implying that my account has been either been sold or taken over by them ( Aspen ). They are charging me as if they are a legal/law firm hired. They are blocking me from continued business with the original party since I have a tax bill with the original party due soon. I will not be able to pay the tax bill directly since my account has been tied with Aspen and  their fees. It occurs to be a unjust cycle and their leverage is to continue to charge inflated fees until it's paid in full.

Product: Debt collection — Medical debt
Issue: False statements or representation — Attempted to collect wrong amount
Company: Merchants' Credit Guide Company (VA)

Complaint:
Disputes have been filed with the credit bureaus and recorded phonecalls have been made. Additionally there was a conflicting statement sent. 

I called to ask for an itemized statement to explain the {$390.00} collection sent to Merchant Credit Guide by getting the bill from the source of the debt, XXXX XXXX. XXXX  was bought out by XXXX XXXX and here is where things get complicated. 

Instead of getting the itemized bill for the {$390.00} in collections I was sent a completely different bill totalling {$930.00}. When I asked which department could explain the line-items, why my bill was suddenly almost 3 times higher, and who had responsibility for disputing incorrect or fraudulently added line items I was transferred between departments on a near endless loop. 

When someone finally took the time to explain the new items the explanations didn't make any sense. {$630.00} for XXXX XXXX Type A Level 3 was explained as " to cover costs for nurses because the ER is expensive. '' That's not a proper explanation for an itemized bill. They never explained the exact service ( s ) or item ( s ) I would have recieved. 

They later tried back tracking and explained the new charges as " because your insurance was denied, '' which might have made sense if the bill sent to collections was for the newer, higher amount. The part they failed to explain to me was how and why the charges increased *after* I filed disputes and asked for a correct, itemized statement to explain the {$390.00} owed. 

When a form of resolution was proposed, it was that they would remove the old account in collections so they could validate the newer bill instead of resolving the disputed {$390.00} properly. Again, making it seem as though the new amount was a retaliation for trying to exercise my rights to know why and how I am being billed the way that I am. 

My issues arent with Merchant 's Credit Guide, but with XXXX XXXX for trying to alter a bill well after it was sent to collections. 

I have went ahead to call my insurance and try to reach a resolution on that end as a courtesy, however the dates in question are too far back for them to have any ability to extend coverage.

Issue: Attempts to collect debt not owed — Debt is not yours
Company: WELLS FARGO & COMPANY (MA)

Complaint:
Dear WELLS FARGO AUTO ; 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 XXXX XXXX XXXX and XXXX XXXX XXXX for code of ethics violations.
