Company: JDJ Investments, INC.
State: LA

Complaint narrative:
I monitor my credit constantly. On XX/XX/XXXX I sent a letter of validation to a company called XXXX XXXX XXXX in XXXX, LA asking them to prove me with proof that I have a debt with the company. They send me a piece of paper with my name typed and a dollar amount stating I owe money. I have no acknowledgement of this account. I asked the company to provide me with documentation indication I agreed to pay money, proof of acquisition, and ask that the account be removed from my credit. The account was removed from XXXX  but not XXXX or XXXX.

Company: TekCollect Inc.
State: OR

Complaint narrative:
On XX/XX/XXXX, a company named TekCollect sent me a threatening letter falsely stating I owe {$13000.00} to XXXX XXXX. 

While XXXX XXXX did perform work for me, all amounts owed by me were paid. There has been no presentation of invoices for the {$13000.00} claim. Nothing regarding any work, all of which was brought to a close in XX/XX/XXXX. 

Also, the TekCollect letter is titled " Final Notice '' when no notice whatsoever was received prior to this letter. And, the letter includes no supporting evidence, such as invoices, for any amount owed. 

TekCollect is threatening to ruin my credit record. I called the phone number on the TekCollect letter, and a very young person answered, with " Hello? '' I had to ask if I had reached the TekCollect office -- and it was never made clear if TekCollect actually has an office. 

Thank you for any assistance you can provide with this false claim. 

The TekCollect address is XXXX. XXXX XXXX XXXX, OH XXXX TekCollect phone number = XXXX

Issue: Credit monitoring or identity theft protection services — Problem canceling credit monitoring or identify theft protection service
Company: Experian Information Solutions Inc.
State: CO

Complaint narrative:
On XX/XX/2018 I reached out to Experian, Triple Alert to cancel a credit monitoring service. It was next to impossible to find the number to call - they make it extremely difficult to cancel. I finally received an email with a customer care number ( see below ) : Customer Care Contact Information Phone : XXXX Hours : Monday-Friday from 6 a.m. to 6 p.m., Saturday-Sunday 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. Pacific Time Email : XXXX Your Membership Number is : xxxxxxx After being on hold for 30 minutes, I was told I need to call another number and proceeded to hold another 5 minutes. After calling the new number XXXX XXXX XXXX, I was told they could not find my account. This is a shady business practice, designed to collect {$4.00} per month from consumers indefinitely. The third number XXXX XXXX XXXX put me on hold for 9 minutes. The representative redirected me back to the XXXX number. This is a scam and very poor business practice. I am disputing the charge with the my credit card company. 

I never did get resolution. The customer service rep told me to dispute the charge. However, this is a recurring charge so not sure how I'm supposed to dispute it EVERY month.
