Consumer complaint received 05-07-2016 about Debt collection (I do not know) with NRA Group, LLC (KS).
Issue: Cont'd attempts collect debt not owed
Sub-issue: Debt is not mine

Complaint: I recently checked my credit report and found that I had an account in collections that I did not recognize. I looked into the company that the debt was owed to and did not recall ever doing business with them. After seeing this, I looked further into this company and came across multiple complaints about this company falsifying amounts owed to the company from customers. A vast amount of people had complaints about this because, unbeknown to their knowledge, they were having the accounts sent to collections, which in return, was affecting their credit score. I have never been contacted in anyway about this debt by neither the company or the debt collectors.

Consumer complaint received 07/26/2017 about Debt collection (Other debt) with Hillcrest Davidson & Assoc (MD).
Issue: Communication tactics
Sub-issue: Used obscene, profane, or other abusive language

Complaint: This is a complaint because of the very unprofessional manner in which I was treated over a debt that I do not owe. I am a XXXX year old, XXXX female veteran. I received a letter dated XXXX XXXX, 2017 on  XXXX XXXX, 2017 claiming I owed {$1900.00} for an unpaid debt ( Attachment 1 ). I called the company and was informed they could not find my case and transferred me to the supervisor. When I spoke to the supervisor he became belligerent and downright nasty. He made it very clear to me that he did not care what the problem was or my health but that I owed the money and could afford to pay. In the middle of the conversation he told me everything I said was recorded. I was asked if I had checked my credit recently. The supervisor went through my credit and told me I had the money and could pay. There was enough on my my credit cards that I could easily afford to pay off the debt. He offered me 7 months to pay {$1900.00} and then he reduced it to {$1500.00}. When I did not agree he returned it to {$1900.00}. I told him I owed IRS and he said he did not care. He did not care if I lived or died because I could pay the bill. I told him that I had sent papers to the second company canceling the debt. He said I had to send in a letter 30-60 days before time was up and it had to be sent in by certified mail to get a response. This is not true nor is it in the original contract which states I can do business by phone and does not mention certified mail. I told him I had talked with the second company and he said it did not matter. I explained my original contract was for 39 months not 60 months and he still did not care because the account automatically renewed itself with no notification to me. He belittled harassed and dogged me over my credit. I felt intimidate and bullied. The company he represents took over the contract from another contractor and never notified me of the takeover or offered me a new contact with better service. I only knew of a different address when I made a payment and I wondered why they had not received my payment ( Attached 2 ). I continuously complained about the service I received and had not used it for over 2 years. The present company and I did business by phone which is allowed in the original and contract I have. I asked to cancel the contract which the present company finally acknowledged by phone by calling me to resend them a copy of the original letter because they lost it, which I did ( Attachments 3 & 4 ). Names are on the fax with whom I spoke. The present supervisor refused to accept or believe what I told him. I deserve to be treated with respect. I do not owe the bill because the present company corresponded with me by phone. They called and asked me to send in the 2nd letter to cancel my contract after the date. They informed me my debt was cancelled by phone. No one told me I had to pay an outstanding amount.

Consumer complaint received 04-12-2016 about Mortgage (Home equity loan or line of credit) with BANK OF AMERICA, NATIONAL ASSOCIATION (CA).
Issue: Loan servicing, payments, escrow account

Complaint: Case # XXXX. After reviewing B of A partial response, I refute it. Loan ending XXXX - B of A ca n't forgive this loan, because they do n't have a legal claim, as evidenced by bankruptcy ct. ( please see submitted evidence ). After reviewing my Experience credit report, I discovered B of a erroneously reported the following late payments for loan ending XXXX. XX/XX/XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX XX/XX/XXXX. I can provide payment and posting dates to refute this. Also, I discovered that they reported late payments for # XXXX for XXXX - XXXX XXXX - XXXX, XXXX, XXXX, XXXX. When B of a extinguished this loan in XX/XX/XXXX, I stopped making payments after talking speaking to a bank rep in XX/XX/XXXX. I spoke with their home team, equity loan, bankruptcy dept., and local branch. None of them ever refuted said extinguishment. Curiously, I did n't make payments on defunct loan # XXXX in XX/XX/XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX and never heard a peep from them. Clearly, B of A is guilty of malfeasance in regard to this loan, and have completely destroyed my credit. I own XXXX properties with mortgages all paid continuously and timely through 5 years of bankruptcy or I would n't own them now! I would expect this sort of chicanery from a loan servicer. From my perspective the only thing B of A is committed to is committing fraud on the consumer. Once again I maintain that if my e-mails server and that of my former attorney, XXXX XXXX, were sub-poened from the time frame previously indicated, that I would be completely vindicated in my claim. B of A responded by claiming I did n't cooperate by not sending them a copy of the extinguishment. That 's insane thing to ask of your customer, what happened, they lost it?
