Complaint narrative:
On Tuesday XX/XX/XXXX at XXXX XXXX  My mom ( who I do not live with ) texted me to let me know a man called looking for me. Before I was done texting her, I received messages from my niece, my ex husband, my dad and my mom that he left messages for all of them that I needed to give a verified address for documents to be delivered. My phone had an XXXX number to call. XXXX XXXX XXXX. I called them and the gentleman I talked to said " we can end this right now if you pay XXXX, would you like to use XXXX  or XXXX. '' I said I don't have that kind of money, I told him I have been working with a debt relief company. He didn't seem to like that response. I asked for copies of paperwork so I could forward it to the debt relief company at which time he said if I didn't pay today, the collection activity would continue. He asked for my phone number and would have the gentleman calling everyone know. At XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX called me from XXXX XXXX XXXX and asked when I would be home. I told him about XXXX XXXX as I was working. I said but my daughter is home. He said no one can accept the papers except me because I had to read iT all in front of him and sign papers. He asked where I worked because he had to get this off his desk. I gave him my work address ( and I have a witness ). He never delivered papers and calls resumed again the following morning. To my mom, my step mom and me. I made a comment to my coworker that this was very aggressive I was going to call the police to be here and XXXX XXXX, " you call the police. That will actually help me out a lot. '' Again, he never attempted to deliver paperwork. He never yold me what company he works for. But the XXXX number I called was for national recovery. 

I know they call family so they can charge location fees. But they had my address and my phone number, both I've had over 15 years. I never evaded phone calls. I never received a call til the called my mother first and I never received any mail. So I don't agree I should have to pay fees that they will add on to any debt either. 
Even after I told him where I was, he never showed up.

Complaint narrative:
I am a hardworking individual has been diligently paying my accounts on time for the quite a long time. However, upon reviewing my credit report, I discover several instances of late payments recorded by these creditors. Perplexed by this discrepancy, I contacted these creditors to inquire about the inaccuracies. After discussing the matter with a customer service representative and the billing department, it becomes evident that there was a mutual agreement between me and these creditors to adjust the payment schedule due to unforeseen circumstances. Despite adhering to this adjusted schedule, the payments were mistakenly marked as late in the system. Understanding the gravity of the situation, these creditors swiftly acknowledge the error and assures me that the inaccurate late payments will be rectified. Additionally, they offer to provide written documentation of the agreed-upon payment schedule to prevent any future misunderstandings.

On XX/XX/year> I sent a certified letter to XXXX XXXX XXXX showing that my wife and I refuse to pay the debt they are trying to collect. My credit reports were pulled from XXXX is still showing a negative item from them and shows that I am disputing the account. How can I be disputing the information AND refusing to pay the debt. I've attached the receipt, the letter, and a credit report showing the information. 

They are also trying to charge interest on the debt. My lease with the apartment complex does NOT have any language stating that interest may be charged in any event. That is against California state law. 

I demand that this be removed from my credit reports due to many errors. Laws state that they can only report things that are accurate.
