I asked to not be contacted unless what I asked for is submitted, and yet as of XX/XX/XXXX I have another letter from Credit Control LLC telling me I have 30 days which to dispute or it'll be reported to my credit report. This is harassing and I am tired of it! I am asking for your assistance to stop all correspondence from Credit Control LLC, XXXX XXXX, and XXXX  regarding the alleged debt in the amount of {$700.00} that I do not OWE!!!!

Company: Atlanticus Services Corporation
State: NY

Complaint narrative:
Not only does their website and app still not properly function, but I also can't use a debit card to pay. They offer the option, which is incredibly misleading, but interestingly the option doesn't seem to work when you try to use it. Funny enough, the only option they offer that actually works is using your bank account, which takes 3-5 days to process a payment and can end up bouncing back in the process, especially if you live paycheck to paycheck. Interesting.
