Complaint narrative:
XX/XX/XXXX National Enterprise Systems ( NES ) contacted me on behalf of XXXX a private student loan. I asked for loan documentation amount, loan guarantor written correspondence address and current payment proof. This was due to the fact that my loan was moved to a collection agency while making payments as agreed an the amount agreed between XXXX and myself. I was denied information and told that NES was hired to collect he funds and my only option was to pay them. They had no information regarding my loans and failed to produce any legitimate information from XXXX. The payment options given were to get a second mortgage on my home, cash out my retirement account, defer other payments to pay them a lump sum, ask a family member or a friend for the lump sum, if I had friends. I was called a liar, yelled at and accused of not wanted to pay the debt, although NES produced no information from XXXX and the account numbers printed on the original documents were not any account numbers that I had. As a result, I asked NES to stop calling me because I did not agree with the yelling and constant phone calls but I was told that I couldn't tell them to stop calling and that they were going to do what they were hired to do and if I didn't pay them, they would garnish my wages and military pay. 

XX/XX/XXXX I blocked their number to stop the calls but still didn't receive any documentation in the mail to validate the debt. In retaliation to me blocking their number, XXXX XXXX called several public numbers for XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX asking if I worked in the office. She posed as a worker from XXXX XXXX asking if XXXX XXXX had ordered a shower rod to be delivered to the base. As this was strange for me to do such a thing, my superiors called me and informed me that someone was calling around base asking for me, requesting numbers and email to contact me regarding my shower rod. When the person they spoke with refused to give them my information, they were asked to, tell me to call XXXX, XXXX. 

XX/XX/XXXX XXXX XXXX continued to call XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX seeking information about me and I was informed that she called everyday, multiple times a day. Although, she was informed that I was not in the office and everyone refused to give out my personal information. When I arrived at the base later that month, I received all the messages and contacted the XXXX XXXX number and asked to speak to XXXX XXXX . I spoke to XXXX XXXX instead who denied my number being in their system and could not provide any information but did confirm that XXXX XXXX was an employee there but would not allow me to leave a message since she couldn't find anything on me in her system. A few days later XXXX XXXX at ext XXXX called my father at XXXX to locate me and or a payment. My father asked what was the bill in reference too and XXXX stated that I should know who I owe and needed to contact them before the end of the day. Due to the strange interaction, my father did not give out my information and asked her to mail out whatever, she needed to contact me about. However, once again nothing was mailed out regarding the debt. My father was then contacted by NES nearly every hour of the day for over 2 weeks Monday thru Saturday. He was told to cash in his retirement savings to pay off the loan and be at risk for other legal actions that would prevent him from having options later. As a result, he asked them to stop calling him and they refused, so he just stopped answering the phone. I called and tried to speak to XXXX XXXX once again but was told that anyone could help me if I wanted to make a payment and I was given their address if I wanted to request additional information on the debt but they were not sending out anything extra than the letters I have already received. I was information that the letters they mailed out had a mailing address for payments and that was all I needed to move forward with the collection.
