Consumer complaint received 2022-06-12 00:00:00
Product: Debt collection — I do not know
Issue: Communication tactics — You told them to stop contacting you, but they keep trying
Company: CAVALRY INVESTMENTS, LLC
State: WI

Complaint narrative:
To Whom it may concern : I have the right to be treated by a collection agency with dignity and respect. They called but never sent a letter notifying me of the debt.

They contacted me numerous times. Finally a letter from attorney from HELPS ( a senior citizen consumer protection group ) sent them a cease and desist letter in XX/XX/2021 and also notified them that I was on protected income - social security income. Now, they are calling and contacting me again. It seems like they try to contact me about this every few months hoping that all previous cease and desist/ debt validation letters will be forgotten. The collection agency has engaged in the following practices, which violate the federal Fair Debt Collection Practices Act : Illegally Inform a Third Party About Your Alleged Debts repeatedly calling relatives, family and friends Collectors are not allowed to inform anyone about your debts Within five days of the collector 's initial communication, it must send you a notice include the amount of the debt, name of the creditor, and notice of your right to dispute the debts within 30 days.

Company: BANK OF AMERICA, NATIONAL ASSOCIATION
State: CA

Complaint narrative:
I saw an apartment for rent on XXXX and responded to the ad. I was told to secure the apartment I needed to pay 1 month deposit, 1st month rent and that it was refundable if I saw the condo and didn't like it. Then I was told I couldn't see it unless I paid the 2nd month rent, so I paid that. Then I was told I couldn't see the apartment without paying a {$600.00} utility deposit. I refused and they said they would refund my money. I contacted the property manager numerous times and he kept making excuses why I haven't received my refund. I told him I was going to take legal action and continued emailing him to follow up. Then the emails started bouncing back because he canceled his email account.
