I am requesting proof that I am indeed the party you are asking to pay this debt, and there is some contractual obligation proving my obligations to perform or comply, that is binding on me to pay this debt.

At this time I will also inform you that if your offices have or continue to report invalidated information to any of the XXXX major credit bureaus ( XXXX, XXXX, XXXX XXXX ), this action might constitute fraud under both federal and state laws.

If your offices fail to respond to this validation request within 30 days from the date of your receipt, all references to this account must be deleted and completely removed from my credit file and a copy of such deletion request shall be sent to me immediately. This also includes not contracting with other credit reporting companies or debt collectors using means of extortion in attempt to collect something that was never due.

When a person enters a contract because of his justifiable reliance on a misrepresentation about some important fact, the contract is voidable. Misrepresentations can be either : 1. innocent ( not intentionally deceptive ) or 2. fraudulent ( made with the knowledge of falsity and intent to deceive ). Contracts induced by misrepresentation or fraud are generally considered voidable. This means that the person whose consent was not real has the power to rescind ( cancel ) the contract. The elements of misrepresentation and fraud are as follows - notice the similarities. ( authors addition ) Innocent misrepresentation Fraud 1. Untrue assertion of fact ( or equivalent ) 2. Assertion relates to material fact 3. Actual reliance 4. Justifiable reliance 1. Untrue assertion of fact ( or equivalent ) 2. Assertion made with knowledge of falsity and intent to deceive 3. Actual reliance 4. Justifiable reliance 5. Economic loss ( in a tort action for damages PARTS OF A LAWFULCONTRACT 1. Parties competent to contract The parties to a contract should be competent, being of the age of consent, of sound mind, not disqualified from contracting by anylawto which s/he is subject. A flaw in capacity may be due to minority, lunacy, XXXX, XXXX or kind. The parties should be of like kind, being eitherartificialLegal Entity and artificial Legal Entity, orliving Man/Woman and living Man/Woman, allowing more than two parties butnevera mixture of these kinds. 2. Free and genuine consent The consent of the parties to the agreement must be free and genuine. The consent of the parties should not be obtained by misrepresentation, fraud, undue influence, coercion or mistake. If the consent is obtained by any of these means, then the contract is not valid or lawfully enforceable. 3. Full disclosure When negotiating a contract, full disclosureis the act of providing all material information, or telling the whole truth, about anymatterwhich may influence the decision-making of the other party or parties before they decide to enter into a contract. 4. Sufficient consideration Theconsiderationis something of value possessed by the parties that is brought to the contract table. This something of value is bargained for and given in exchange for a promise or a performance. The parties must eachreceive a benefitand eachsuffer a detriment.To be enforceable, a contract must have sufficient consideration. A contract is unenforceable if it has insufficient or unequal consideration without agreement. 5. Certainty of terms The Terms and Conditions of the contract must be fully disclosed and agreed upon, and must be certain and fixed, i.e. not variable as with interest rates. 6. Meeting of the minds Ameeting of the minds consensus ad idem, occurs between the parties when they recognise each other, understand their mutual obligations, and agree. Thismeeting of mindscan only occur between like kinds, beingLegal Entity with Legal Entity, orMan/Woman with Man/Woman.A corporation and another corporation may enter into contract by way ofaccommodation parties, and a sentient being and another sentient being may enter into a contract directly, but a corporation and a sentient being together can not enter into a contract as they are not of the same and equal kind. 7. Signatures or autographs Written contracts between Legal Entity actors must carry the wet inksignaturesof the parties, each wet inksignaturebeing anaccommodationfrom a Man/Woman. Written contracts between living Men/Women must carry the wet inkautographsof the parties, and/or living identification such as a thumbprint. Livingstandingis recognised by a thumbprint, or more often by anunambiguous declarationwith theautograph, such asauthorised agentwritten below. 8. Privity of contract A contract exists only between the parties. No third-party can obtain rights contained within a contract, or buy or sell a contract, without the express permission of the original parties. Best Regards XXXX XXXX cc Federal Trade Commission Key Concept 6 Misrepresentation and Fraud 1 A misrepresentation is an assertion that is not in accord with the truth. When a person enters a contract because of his justifiable reliance on a misrepresentation about some important fact, the contract is voidable. Misrepresentations can be either : 1. innocent ( not intentionally deceptive ) or 2. fraudulent ( made with the knowledge of falsity and intent to deceive ). Contracts induced by misrepresentation or fraud are generally considered voidable. This means that the person whose consent was not real has the power to rescind ( cancel ) the contract. The elements of misrepresentation and fraud are as follows - notice the similarities. ( authors addition ) Innocent misrepresentation Fraud 1. Untrue assertion of fact ( or equivalent ) 2. Assertion relates to material fact 3. Actual reliance 4. Justifiable reliance 1. Untrue assertion of fact ( or equivalent ) 2. Assertion made with knowledge of falsity and intent to deceive 3. Actual reliance 4. Justifiable reliance 5. Economic loss ( in a tort action for damages 1. Untrue Assertion of Fact or Equivalent ( authors addition ) To have misrepresentation, one of the parties must have made : 1. an untrue assertion of fact or 2. engaged in conduct that is equivalent to an untrue assertion of fact. The fact must be a past or existing fact, as distinguished from : 1. an opinion or 2. a promise or prediction about some future happening. The concealment of a fact through some active conduct intended to prevent the other party from discovering the fact is considered the equivalent of an assertion. For example, if Summers is offering his house for sale and paints the ceilings to conceal the fact that the roof leaks, his active concealment constitutes an assertion of fact. Nondisclosure can also be the equivalent of an assertion of fact. Nondisclosure is the failure to volunteer information. Disclosure of a fact is required when : 1. the person has already offered some information but further information is needed to give the other party an accurate picture or 2. there is a relationship of trust and confidence between the parties or 1 Source of materials : Mallor, et al., Business Law and the Regulatory Environment : Concepts and Cases ( XXXX XXXX/XXXX , 11th Edition, XX/XX/XXXX ). Bold print, bullets, and numbers have been added to the Mallor text to indicate particular emphasis. 3. a party has access to information that is not readily available to the other party. Transactions involving the sale of real estate are among the most common situations in which the duty to disclose arises. Most states hold that a seller who knows about a latent ( hidden ) defect that materially affects the value of the property has the obligation to speak up about the defect. For example, in a recent case a buyer contracted to purchase a house that was reputed, according the sellers, to be possessed with ghosts. The sellers did not tell the buyer this fact. When the buyer learned of the houses reputation, he was granted the right to sue for rescission. ( authors addition ) 2. Materiality Innocent misrepresentation If the misrepresentation was innocent, the person seeking to rescind the contract must establish that the fact asserted was material. A fact will be considered material if it is : 1. likely to play a significant role in inducing a reasonable person to enter the contract or 2. if the person asserting the fact knows that the other person is likely to rely on the fact. For example, XXXX who is trying to sell his car to XXXX and knows that XXXX idolizes professional bowlers, tells XXXX that a XXXX XXXX once rode in the car. Relying on that representation, XXXX buys the car. Although the fact XXXX asserted might not be important to most people, it would be material here. Fraud Even if the fact is not material, the contract may be rescinded if the misrepresentation was fraudulent. Fraud is the type of misrepresentation that is committed knowingly, with the intent to deceive. The rationale for this rule is that a person who fraudulently misrepresents a fact should not be able to profit from his intentionally deceptive conduct. A person making a misrepresentation would be considered to do so knowingly if she : 1. knew her statement was false or 2. knew that she did not have a basis for making the statement or 3. made the statement without being confident that it was true. The intent to deceive can be inferred from the fact that the defendant knowingly made a misstatement of fact to a person who was likely to rely on it. 3. Actual Reliance Reliance means that a person pursues some course of action because of his faith in the assertion made to him. There must have been a causal connection between the assertion and the complaining partys decision to enter the contract. If the complaining party ( 1 ) knew that the assertion was false or ( 2 ) was not aware that an assertion had been made, there is no reliance. 4. Justifiable Reliance Courts also scrutinize the reasonableness of the behavior of the complaining party by requiring that his reliance be justifiable. A person does not act justifiably if he relies on an assertion that is : 1. obviously false or 2. not to be taken seriously. One problem involving the justifiable reliance element is determining the extent to which the relying party is responsible for investigating the accuracy of the statement on which he relies. o Classical contract law held that a person who did not attempt to discover readily discoverable facts ( e.g. public records - authors addition ) generally was not justified in relying on the other partys statements about them. o The extent of the responsibility placed on a relying party to conduct an independent investigation has declined in modern contract law. Todays courts tend to place a greater degree of accountability on the person who makes the assertion rather than the person who relies. 5. Economic loss In tort actions in which the plaintiff is seeking to recover damages for fraud, the plaintiff would have to establish a fifth element : injury. He would have to prove that he had suffered actual economic injury because of his reliance on the fraudulent assertion. In cases in which the injured person seeks only rescission of the contract, however, proof of economic injury usually is not required. Remedies Rescission As is true for innocent misrepresentation, the contract remedy for fraudulent misrepresentation is rescission. A person who rescinds a contract is entitled to the return of anything he gave the other party. He must offer to return anything he has received from the other party. Necessity for prompt and unequivocal rescission Suppose XXXX who recently bought a car from XXXX XXXX learns that XXXX XXXX made fraudulent statements to her to induce her to buy the car. She believes the contract was induced by fraud and wants to rescind. She must : 1. object promptly upon learning the facts and 2. must clearly express her intent to cancel. She must also avoid any behavior that would suggest that she affirms or ratifies the contract, such as : 1. an unreasonable delay in notifying the other party or 2. continuing to accept benefits from the other party or 3. behaving in a way that is inconsistent with her expressed intent to rescind. Damages The tort liability of a person who commits fraud is different from that of a person who commits innocent misrepresentation. A person who commits fraud may be liable for damages, possibly including punitive damages, for the tort of deceit. In some states, a person injured by fraud can not rescind and sue for damages for deceit ; he must elect ( choose ) between the remedies. In other states, however, an injured party may pursue both rescission and damage remedies. In addition, a person injured by fraud in a contract for the sale of goods can both rescind and sue for damages. Innocent misrepresentation Fraud Rescission rescission and/or tort action in damages Am Jur 2d - Contracts 1 0 New I. In General, A. Definitions, 1 - Contract A contract has been defined as an agreement to do, or refrain from doing, a particular thing, [ 1 ] upon a sufficient consideration. [ 2 ] Similarly, a " contract '' has been defined as an agreement, obligation, or legal tie by which a party binds itself, or becomes bound, expressly or impliedly, to pay a sum of money or to perform or omit to do some certain act or thing. [ 3 ] Also, a " contract '' has been defined as a private, voluntary allocation by which two or more parties distribute specific entitlements and obligations. [ 4 ] A " contract '' is an agreement between two or more parties that creates obligations that are legally enforceable by the contracting parties. [ 5 ] A " contract '' is an agreement between two or more parties creating obligations that are enforceable or otherwise recognizable at law. [ 6 ] A " contract '' is an agreement by two or more parties whereby obligations are created, modified, or extinguished. [ 7 ] A contract is an obligation which arises from actual agreement of the parties manifested by words, oral or written, or by conduct. [ 8 ] The term " contract '' has been held to include every description or agreement or obligation, whether verbal or written, by which one party becomes bound to another to pay a sum of money or to perform or omit to do a certain act. [ 9 ] The Restatement defines the term " contract '' as a promise or a set of promises for the breach of which the law gives a remedy, or the performance of which the law in some way recognizes as a duty, [ 10 ] and this definition has been adopted by some courts. [ 11 ] However, this has been criticized as a circular definition : it is the same as saying that a contract is a legally enforceable promise, but a promise is legally enforceable only if it is a contract. [ 12 ] A contract is not a law, nor does it make law : it is the agreement plus the law that makes the ordinary contract an enforceable obligation. [ 13 ] Caution : The following types of contracts are subject in some respects to special rules that depend on their formal characteristics and differ from those governing contracts in general : [ 14 ] contracts under seal recognizances negotiable instruments and documents letters of credit When used in its ordinary sense, the term " contract '' implies enforceable obligations. [ 15 ] However, in popular speech, the word " contract '' is frequently used as meaning the work done under a contract. [ 16 ] Observation : A contract is a verbal act that has a legal reality independent of the truth of any statement contained in it. [ 17 ] The right to perform a contract and to receive its profits and the right to performance by the other party are property rights entitling each party to the fulfillment of the contract by performance. [ 18 ] Under the Uniform Electronic Transactions Act, the term " contract '' means the total legal obligation resulting from the parties ' agreement as affected by the act and other applicable law. [ 19 ] The term " contract '' has a more specific and extended meaning than the terms " promise '' or " agreement. " [ 20 ] The existence of a contract is a question of fact. [ 21 ] Tallies or receipts [ 22 ] and invoices [ 23 ] are generally not contracts. - See more at : XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX

This complaint/unresolved issue involves 3 companies. XXXX, the debt collection company I.C. Systems Inc., and XXXX XXXX. I have received collection notices from XXXX and XXXX over the last couple years regarding a debt from XXXX XXXX XXXX. In each case I notified the companies that I disputed the debt as I did not believe service charges were correct and requested billing/payment history. I was given a free XXXX game pass for my first year of service with XXXX XXXX, and in the second year I was billed for the service without my consent as I did not order it for that year. I called and XXXX XXXX made a correction. However, a charge I believed to be related to the XXXX pass remained and was never corrected up to the day service was terminated. Service was terminated by XXXX XXXX over unpaid bill due in part because of these charges and that I was charged an increased price for service in XX/XX/XXXX that I believed was still within my 2 year price guarantee. In each case I never received any documentation regarding this from my verbal requests. The debt was never reported to the credit bureau and appeared to keep getting bounced between XXXX and XXXX. The debt included additional charges for equipment that was in my possession that I had not returned as of the initial collection notices. I returned the equipment to an XXXX XXXX ( # XXXX ) XX/XX/XXXX per the return instructions as I decided I wasn't getting anywhere with the debt collectors or XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX. ( XXXX XXXX was purchased by XXXX XXXX XXXX ) and was going to just pay the balance off after turning in the equipment and they made the correction to my bill. The bill was never corrected and I received another collection notice from XXXX dated XX/XX/XXXX. I called XXXX and advised them I turned in equipment a few days before the notice and had proof of the return being accepted and I was waiting for the balance to be adjusted and reiterated my dispute of the service charges. I was told it may take 30 days for the balance to be updated by XXXX XXXX XXXX/XXXX XXXX. It appeared nothing was done and the debt was passed to a new collection company IC Systems Inc. This collection company sent me a letter dated XX/XX/XXXX which was the same month they reported to XXXX which would violate the 30 day notice period for me to dispute the matter in writing per the FCRA. Due to well publicized Postal service delays during this period in the XXXX Ohio area, I did not receive this notice until XX/XX/XXXX. I submitted a dispute through XXXX XXXX on XX/XX/XXXX and on XX/XX/XXXX it came back as reviewed as accurate. Now, I didn't submit any supporting documentation so I wasn't angry it came back as verified but definitely frustrated as I believed if they had validated the debt based on my comments that they would have discovered the equipment return and updated the balance and I could have proceeded from there. Since that didn't happen I submitted XX/XX/XXXX another dispute directly on the XXXX website and included all the collection letters ( showing the debt was from XXXX and NOT XXXX as was showing on XXXX ), the final bill from XXXX XXXX showing the equipment charges, and the return receipts complete with equipment serial numbers that were confirmed received. I checked the website for updates after an email notice that a result was determined. XXXX came back and said it was confirmed as accurate and valid again. I received the official letter dated XX/XX/XXXX on XX/XX/XXXX. I called XXXX on XX/XX/XXXX and spoke to " XXXX '' at XXXX EST. She was an offshore associate who told me that the online dispute department was the only one who had access to the records I submitted and she couldn't retrieve this information to forward to the investigations group as they were separate areas. I requested to speak to someone in that group or for her to get with her management to obtain the information I submitted so they could manually review. She explained that was not possible and my only option was to " Mail '' in a new dispute. I had no option to email, fax, or otherwise electronically submit a duplicate dispute. I complained that this was not right and I believed this process was meant to specifically deter and dismiss complaints and disputes. Never the less I mailed copies of these documents XX/XX/XXXX. As of today XX/XX/XXXX I have not received a response. I do not believe XXXX did ANY investigation whatsoever or require any real proof of debt validation. My suspicion is due to the fact I proceeded to call IC Systems next. I spoke to XXXX XXXX on XX/XX/XXXX at XXXX EST and advised I had disputed the reporting with XXXX and provided documents to them showing the debt amount and reporting was inaccurate. She advised the debt was accurate and confirmed. She told me to reference the letter I received from them that showed the creditor ( XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX ), their address, and the amount of the debt. I argued that what I received was not validation or proof of the debt and I wanted them to send me proof of the debt and what contributed to the balance. Since XXXX took my documentation showing proof that the {$620.00} balance was incorrect and should be no more than {$320.00}, I wanted to see what proof they had that contradicted what I provided. XXXX told me they didn't have that information and I would have to go back to XXXX XXXX!!! I advised them that as the agency that reported me to the credit bureau AND was validating the debt with XXXX, they should have proof of the debt. I was told the debt validation was the letter they sent me that disclosed the balance, creditor, and address of the creditor. Again, I argued that was NOT validation of the debt as I had provided proof it was wrong and offered to send it to them to update their reporting. My request was declined by XXXX XXXX and I was told her supervisor ( who I didn't get to speak to ) and that I would have to go back to XXXX XXXX. I was refused debt validation by the agency that was responsible for the credit bureau reporting. This was why I believe XXXX is also in error. If the agency reporting the debt could not validate the debt, how did they do ANY investigation? I believe IC Systems and XXXX have violated sections 611 and 623 of the FCRA for these issues. After the brick wall with IC Systems and XXXX, I called XX/XX/XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX. My first call was XX/XX/XXXX. I spoke to XXXX at XXXX EST who transferred me because they didn't have the bill in current accounts. I was transferred and call was dead air until I hung up at XXXX. I called back, got another rep and was transferred to XXXX in business mobility collections who didn't handle XXXX XXXX accounts, then transferred to a XXXX in tele-assistance who had no number or idea what to do with me. I had no choice to but to hang up and call back as XXXX didn't even have XXXX XXXX 's customer service number. I called back XX/XX/XXXX at XXXX. I spoke to XXXX who put me on hold until XXXX before telling me they would have to call me back. At XXXX they called me back and transferred me to " XXXX '' wo was in XXXX XXXX collections. I heard music and then dead air and nothing. I hung up at XXXX and called back. I got XXXX at XXXX. I was told once it goes to collections they can't help. I advised that wasn't correct as the agency directed me to them and someone has to validate the debt. I was transferred a few more times before getting XXXX in internal collections who said I have 1 year to return equipment. I advised no document I received, no conversation, nothing ever disclosed that and my return of equipment was accepted and I had proof. I got transferred to XXXX XXXX Technical and spoke to XXXX at XXXX who confirmed my equipment showed returned. I got transferred back to XXXX in collections at XXXX who stated again 1 year to return equipment. I advised again, it was returned and accepted and I had proof and they have confirmed they are in possession of the equipment and I expect an update to the balance.

Requirements relating to information contained in consumer reports [ 15 U.S.C. 1681c ] ( a ) Information excluded from consumer reports. Except as authorized under subsection ( b ) of this section, no consumer reporting agency may make any consumer report containing any of the following items of information : ( 1 ) Cases under title 11 [ United States Code ] or under the Bankruptcy Act that, from the date of entry of the order for relief or the date of adjudication, as the case may be, antedate the report by more than 10 years.

( 3 ) Paid tax liens which, from date of payment, antedate the report by more than seven years. ( 4 ) Accounts placed for collection or charged to profit and loss which antedate the report by more than seven years. ( 1 ) ( 5 ) Any other adverse item of information, other than records of convictions of crimes which antedates the report by more than seven years.1 ( b ) Exempted cases. The provisions of subsection ( a ) of this section are not applicable in the case of any consumer credit report to be used in connection with ( 1 ) a credit transaction involving, or which may reasonably be expected to involve, a principal amount of {$150000.00} or more ; ( 2 ) the underwriting of life insurance involving, or which may reasonably be expected to involve, a face amount of {$150000.00} or more ; or ( 3 ) the employment of any individual at an annual salary which equals, or which may reasonably be expected to equal {$75000.00}, or more. ( c ) Running of reporting period. ( 1 ) In general. The 7-year period referred to in paragraphs ( 4 ) and ( 6 ) ** of subsection ( a ) shall begin, with respect to any delinquent account that is placed for collection ( internally or by referral to a third party, whichever is earlier ), charged to profit and loss, or subjected to any similar action, upon the expiration of the 180-day period beginning on the date of the commencement of the delinquency which immediately preceded the collection activity, charge to profit and loss, or similar action. XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, FL XXXX ( XXXX ) XXXX ACCOUNT # XXXX On these subscribers that are reporting the affixed information, I am requesting full validation such as, original transfer rights to collect, confirmation of legal timeline to report on credit and/or collection procedures, validation of licensing requirements, posted bonding requirements, oversight on monthly payment histories, proper subscriber agreement compliance with credit reporting agencies, and overall compliance with all Fair Credit Reporting Act and Fair Debt Collection Practices Act bylaws as mandated by federal laws. If all of these requirements are not in order, then I have the legal right to request the deletion of this tradeline accordingly. XXXX XXXXXX/XX/XXXX XXXX, XXXX, TX XXXX ( XXXX ) XXXX, ACCOUNT # XXXX On these subscribers that are reporting the affixed information, I am requesting full validation such as, original transfer rights to collect, confirmation of legal timeline to report on credit and/or collection procedures, validation of licensing requirements, posted bonding requirements, oversight on monthly payment histories, proper subscriber agreement compliance with credit reporting agencies, and overall compliance with all Fair Credit Reporting Act and Fair Debt Collection Practices Act bylaws as mandated by federal laws. If all of these requirements are not in order, then I have the legal right to request the deletion of this tradeline accordingly. CREDIT AGENCIES AGREE TO WAIT BEFORE ADDING MEDICAL DEBT TO RATINGS XXXX XXXX XXXX. XXXX XXXX XXXX Account # XXXX XXXX XXXX v. XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX Account # XXXX At this time I make the claim that the medical debt procured against me on any or all credit reporting agencies, should be deleted permanently. Too many consumers have learned the hard way that their credit rating can be tarnished by medical bills they may not owe or when disputes delay insurer payment. That should change under new policy agreed to this week by the three major credit reporting agencies. The agencies say they will establish a 180-day waiting period before medical debt is added to someones credit report. In addition, the agencies agreed that when an insurer pays a bill, the debt will be promptly removed from the consumers credit report, unlike certain debts that remain for years. The changes are part of a settlement between the credit rating agencies XXXX, XXXX and XXXX and the New York Attorney Generals office that aims to improve accuracy and enhance procedures for disputing credit report errors. The agreement covers consumers across the country. The three agencies gather information from banks and collection agencies about consumers credit such as payment history and how much someone owes to credit score for more than 200 million individuals throughout the country. A persons credit score is used as a measure of credit worthiness, and can influence peoples ability to get loans and the interest rates they are charged, among other things. This is going to help millions of people access more affordable loans, says XXXX XXXX, a principal at XX/XX/XXXXXXXX in XXXX XXXX, Mass. People will no longer be penalized for having a medical bill slip past them and get on their credit report even though the bill gets paid. Insurers sometimes wrangle with patients and providers for months before paying a bill. The new six-month waiting period will give consumers time to resolve such disputes, XXXX noted. Medical debt accounts for more that half of the collection items on credit reports, according to a report by the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau. Among people facing collection for only medical debt, about half have otherwise clean credit reports with no sign of past debt collection problems. On these subscribers that are reporting the affixed information, I am requesting full validation such as, original transfer rights to collect, confirmation of legal timeline to report on credit and/or collection procedures, validation of licensing requirements, posted bonding requirements, oversight on monthly payment histories, proper subscriber agreement compliance with credit reporting agencies, and overall compliance with all Fair Credit Reporting Act and Fair Debt Collection Practices Act bylaws as mandated by federal laws. If all of these requirements are not in order, then I have the legal right to request the deletion of this tradeline accordingly. This letter is addressed to the subscriber furnishing the information on my credit reports, and if this letter is addressed to any credit reporting agency, then it is considered a ghost letter mirroring the actual request for documentation of a credit trade line I may have issues with. It is my understanding that each credit reporting agency has an obligation to maintain accuracy within the banking/credit community, and I will fulfill my obligations to work within the credit system as it was designated. Thank you for your full consideration in this matter. Sincerely, XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX

The name and address of all persons, corporations, associations, legal firms or any other parties and entities having an interest in the collection or legal proceedings regarding the alleged debt. c. As a debt collector you have not purchased evidence of debt and are proceeding with this collection activity solely in the name of the original contracting party. d. You know and understand that certain clauses in a contract of adhesion are unenforceable unless the party to whom the contract is extended could have selectively rejected the clause. e. You will provide written verification from the stated creditor that you are authorized to act on their behalf in this debt collection action. f. You have taken reasonable and prudent diligence to verify that the amount claimed owed is in fact a legitimate debt prior to instigating this action and making said claims, and that all relevant correspondence has been reviewed prior to initiating this claim. g.

As such, I am asking you to stipulate whether you are the holder in due course for my promissory note. If you are not the holder, then you admit to being the servicer of this obligation. 5 ) Please also stipulate for the record whether or not my loan has been securitized, and if so, the name of the REMIC/Trust my loan is bundled with. 6 ) If my loan has been securitized, then please provide me the pooling and servicing agreement that names my loan as well as any documentation that explicitly gives you the right to service my loan as well as enforce the promissory note in the event of a foreclosure.

Please be advised. A COPY of the said Note nor an Affidavit of Loss or any other forms will not be acceptable. Please provide me the following : 1. A statement admitting whether you are the holder in due course or whether you are a servicer. 2. A statement admitting whether you have sold my note in a pooling and servicing agreement. This is also known as securitization. 3. The identity of the true holder in due course for m y loan. If the loan has been securitized, the name of the REMIC my loan was sold to. 4.

I am pleading with you to resolve this matter privately and civilly as to avoid burdening our courts with this matter. If I have to, I will see you in court. Contacting me again after receipt of this notice without providing procedurally proper validation of the alleged debt constitutes a scheme of fraud by advancing a writing that you know or should know is false, with the intention that the courts and/or others rely on the written communication to impair or damage my credit rating, my reputation, my standing in the community as well as intentionally inflicting financial and emotional harm upon me. I take this notice, and my rights, very seriously and expect I C SYSTEM to do the same. In the event that this debt is not validated by you, as required by the Fair Debt Collections Practices Act, you have a legal responsibility to terminate the claim and correct any negative credit reporting which may have been made in connection with this alleged debt. You may want to obtain a legal opinion on this, but I believe that would constitute a scheme of fraud if this debt were to be resold ; assuming that I C SYSTEM has in fact purchased evidence of debt in this matter. I also will not respond to any future correspondence that is not signed or does not indicate who at your firm has sent the demand for payment. I expect timely responses to the above confirmations and that they be made in writing and sent via certified mail to the address listed below. Alternately, a letter from your firm that the matter has been satisfied and a copy of the letter you sent to all 3 credit reporting agencies asking them that any adverse credit reporting relating to this transaction to be expunged by these three major credit reporting agencies immediately. Failure to provide these items shall mean your admission that you have no claim, your agreement not to report negatively to the credit bureaus, and your agreement never to contact me or the person named in your correspondence again. Included please find a Notice and Demand for Payment in case you are not able to validate the debt your assets will be given a Notice of Lien in the amount and at the interest rate of your invalidated alleged and now illegally collected debt.

BILLING ERROR DISPUTE FCBA XXXX Claims as of XX/XX/XXXX, Substantial Intentional Misrepresentation/ Bad Business Practices : XXXX XXXX continues to Assert False Claims while failing to provide evidence other than a false billing statement. The only evidence that can validate this " alleged debt and justification for the Administrative Chargeback '' is PROOF that I indeed breached the contract regarding Early Termination. XXXX XXXX has NEVER provided this evidence. However, I have successfully proven that it proves this merchant 's fraudulent and deceptive business practices increase revenue and extort profits. XXXX XXXX continues to assert that the charges were valid due to the early termination of my service before the promotional expiration period in breach of contract, justifying the chargeback of the gift card and outstanding debt of {$170.00}. My documents prove that I satisfied the requirements to earn the promotional gift card, with an open account date of XX/XX/XXXX, verified by contract and XXXX hard inquiry credit check. My attached evidence proves I had service-connected for the minimum 90 days UNDER A PREPAID NO ANNUAL CONTRACT TERMS OF THE {$450.00} BYOD promotion from XXXX XXXX. Any reference to current terms and conditions of their promotional gift cards is irrelevant and does not apply to this case. See attached. Finally, this misrepresentation has denied my Due Process and Expeditious review of my arbitration claim. Accordingly, I maintain my False Claims and FCRA violation assertions, and I. Breach of contract means that the company made you a promise ( either verbally, through a contract, or implied in their actions ) and then did not live up to that promise. 1. include making it hard for you to receive some benefit of a deal or promotion with the company 2. the company tries to charge fees or impose requirements hidden in the fine print so you wouldnt know they were there. I was wrongfully and deceptively charged back for adjusted rebate promotion credits which were used in Good Faith and accordance and compliance with XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX regarding acceptable use of gift cards ( promo rebate ), resulting in an outstanding balance, referral to the credit agency, punitive charges, in contravention of the predefined policy and violation of my customer rights. As of today, XX/XX/XXXX, XXXX HAS PRODUCED NO EVIDENCE TO SUPPORT OR VALIDATE THE EFT CHARGES. Additionally, when requested by the FCC, XXXX asked for an extension of 14 days to produce these documents. Despite my repeated disputes, NO ONE GAVE ME AN EXTENSION before O NEGATIVE REPORTING TO CREDIT BUREAUS NOR SENDING ME TO COLLECTIONS DURING THE BILLING DISPUTE PROCESS.

Im disputing the charges of {$390.00}, due to identity theft. Both my cell phone and internet service were compromised by XXXX XXXX and XXXX XXXX. I got locked out of my internet and email accounts at the end of XX/XX/XXXX ; I had no internet or email access. My resolution is for my account to get to a XXXX balance. A police report was filed with XXXX XXXX Police Department on XX/XX/XXXX, alerting them that my internet service, as well as my cell phone service was compromised. Cell phone service was provided by XXXX XXXX and internet service through XXXX XXXX. A copy of the police report is attached. I also contacted XXXX XXXX and XXXX XXXX that my internet and cellular accounts were compromised. I brought my own XXXX XXXX and activated it online through an e-Sim in XX/XX/XXXXXXXX XXXX Initially, the cell phone service with XXXX XXXX was under cell phone number XXXX ; which then changed to XXXX. Upon starting my cell phone service, I received an electronic e-gift card valued at {$350.00} from XXXX XXXX via email. I brought my own cell phone an XXXX XXXXXXXX XXXX under IME # s XXXX and XXXX. I activated my cell phone service using cellphone number XXXX via an E-SIM on the XXXX XXXX network on or about XX/XX/XXXXXXXX XXXX On or before XX/XX/XXXX ; I received a text message from XXXX XXXX indicating that my data usage had exceeded the procured plan and therefore my data usage will be reduced to slower speeds. I knew that I had not consumed this data, so I called XXXX XXXX to inquire about my data usage, since I rarely went on my phone. When I called XXXX XXXX, they did not elaborate as to what possibly could be causing the increase in data ; they just stated that it was nothing for me to worry about. However unbeknownst to myself, someone was able to successfully activate and start using my personal hotspot ; which I did not activate. On XX/XX/XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX I found out that someone successfully activated and started using my personal hotspot ; which explained the increase in data consumption. I started noticing my phone getting excessively hot, the battery started draining faster than usual, my phone was acting like a personal router with 4 different IPs connecting to it and a focus feature was activated. The focus feature on an XXXX, silences phone calls, messages and emails. I contacted XXXX XXXX and XXXX XXXX that my internet and cellular accounts were compromised on or about XX/XX/XXXX. During all this time, I only had one existing phone line active and due to my phone being compromised, I tried to change my cellphone number from ( XXXX ) XXXX, ( XXXX ) XXXX, and ( XXXX ) XXXX in order to deter the phone hacking. Sometime in or about XX/XX/XXXX, I had complained to XXXX the manufacturer of my XXXX that the phone was overheating, had excessive battery draining and a Focus feature activated ; which did not allow me to be notified of any incoming/outgoing emails, account changes, text messages or phone calls. XXXX responded by asking me to send in my phone for them to service it. In turn, I sent my phone to XXXX Repairs. My phone was so heavily compromised that they did not repair my phone, that they kept my old phone and sent me a replacement phone, same make and model ; with a different IMEI number ; the IMEI ( s ) of replacement product is XXXX and XXXX. The work repair email from XXXX is attached, for your records. When I initiated service, I received a {$350.00} e-gift card upon the activation of my phone plan in XX/XX/XXXXXXXX XXXX Payments to the account were done through the XXXX XXXX on my cell phone. The first {$75.00} of the rebate, I used it to pay the XX/XX/XXXX bill. The 2nd rebate payment was done on XX/XX/XXXX again on the XXXX App ; however, it seemed that that payment did not go to my account. Because the payment was never received. An investigation was set up to find out where the rebate payment went. When I received my replacement phone at the end of XXXX, I went to the XXXX XXXX corporate Store located at XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, PA on XX/XX/XXXX to activate the replacement phone. I had explained to the store specialist named XXXX, that my phone was compromised due to identity theft and that the phone given was a replacement phone. The specialist at the store suggested a different phone number and for me to add a paid security feature to my phone plan for an additional {$17.00} more of my phone plan. At first, I went ahead with changing my phone number to ( XXXX ) XXXX, but then changed it back to my old number of ( XXXX ) XXXX ; due to my banking information and email accounts being tied to the old phone number. On this same day, XX/XX/XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX I went to the Kiosk at the XXXX, PA Corporate store and applied the remaining balance of {$190.00} to my account ; since I had trouble with the payments that were submitted through the XXXX App. I never received a receipt of this transaction, I was told that they were out of paper, but that the system would take into account the transaction. It was at the XXXX store that I was offered a 2nd promotion rebate of {$350.00}, with an expiration of XXXX XXXXXXXX XXXX. Attached, you will see the 2nd promotion offer that was handed to me at the store. I never used the second rebate and let it expire ; since the phone I received was a replacement phone. I have paid back the first, and only rebate that I used in the amount of {$350.00} ; on XX/XX/XXXXXXXX ; at the store located at XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, Florida. I did not, nor do I currently have access to emails, that were previously sent with regards to my rebate and have not submitted any rebates over email or online. Due to my email and internet accounts being compromised, I did not have access to emails or the internet, to submit any rebates. Many things have gone amiss on my account, I would like for someone to investigate how and why my phone service had high data consumption when I was not actively using my phone, and how someone managed to setup a personal hotspot and have it activated and linked to my phone through your services and lastly how a second rebate was processed in XXXX, when I did not actively use the rebate or activate it, nor did I have email access ; since my emails were compromised. Please provide a response to my dispute. Thank you. Sincerely, XXXX XXXX

I received an email from my credit monitoring service that informed me that my credit profile was adversely impacted. I found that I.C. SYSTEM, INC had illegally posted alleged collection accounts to my credit report. I have never started nor an opened account with this company. My report shows that I.C. SYSTEM, INC open accounts were opened on XX/XX/2022 and XX/XX/2022 with a balance of {$440.00} and {$160.00}. By federal law, a debt collector is supposed to make contact with an alleged debtor and give them 30 days to validate or dispute before they move forward with collection attempts. I never received a letter in the mail that gave me 30 days to validate or dispute this account. I never received a letter stating that I have an alleged debt with this company and owe a balance on that account. I, a consumer defined under 15 USC 1692a ( 3 ), understand that, under the FDCPA guidelines for collection agencies, they have to provide ( 1 ) legitimate proof that they are the original holder of this debt and can legally hold me responsible for paying this debt and ( 2 ) contractual proof of obligation or an assignment SIGNED from an officer from the original creditors corporation that I am supposed to pay them. 15 USC 1692g Sec. 809 ( b ) of the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act ( FDCPA ) grants me the right as a consumer to request validation of this alleged debt they say I owe. I fully understand 1692g. Validation of debts ( a ) Notice of debt ; that states within five days after the initial communication with a consumer in connection with the collection of any debt, a debt collector shall, unless the following information is contained in the initial communication or the consumer has paid the debt, send the consumer a written notice containing ( 1 ) the amount of the debt ; ( 2 ) the name of the creditor to whom the debt is owed ; ( 3 ) a statement that unless the consumer, within thirty days after receipt of the notice, disputes the validity of the debt, or any portion thereof, the debt will be assumed to be valid by the debt collector ; ( 4 ) a statement that if the consumer notifies the debt collector in writing within the thirty-day period that the debt, or any portion thereof, is disputed, the debt collector will obtain verification of the debt or a copy of a judgment against the consumer and a copy of such verification or judgment will be mailed to the consumer by the debt collector ; and ( 5 ) a statement that, upon the consumer 's written request within the thirty-day period, the debt collector will provide the consumer with the name and address of the original creditor, if different from the current creditor. ( b ) Disputed debts - If the consumer notifies the debt collector in writing within the thirty-day period described in subsection ( a ) of this section that the debt, or any portion thereof, is disputed, or that the consumer requests the name and address of the original creditor, the debt collector shall cease collection of the debt, or any disputed portion thereof, until the debt collector obtains verification of the debt or a copy of a judgment, or the name and address of the original creditor, and a copy of such verification or judgment, or name and address of the original creditor, is mailed to the consumer by the debt collector. ( c ) Admission of liability - The failure of a consumer to dispute the validity of a debt under this section may not be construed by any court as an admission of liability by the consumer. I never received a notice of right to dispute nor did I receive any information to verify that the alleged debt with this company belonged to me. If I would have gotten anything in the mail from this company before they illegally reported to my credit report, I would have respectfully requested evidence that I am the person they are asking to pay this debt and a contractual obligation that legally binds me to pay them this debt. Upon them receiving my validation letter by certified mail with return receipt, they would have to legally cease from collection calls, letters, and efforts and delete the account from my credit reports until they can validate this debt. But again, I never received such a letter about this account ever in the mail because it was never sent. In order for them to prove that I received it properly, the proper letter should have been mailed certified mail with return receipt or by some form of proof of tracking that would require my signature. And if the company did mail anything to me, where is the legal proof of tracking or my signature stating that I received it? Where is the return receipt or postage signature showing that I received it and signed for it? But again, I never received any sort of mail or package. They have illegally posted and reported to my credit file without adhering to the FDCPA laws. Im not sure if this company is a scam, but I know that this company has broken FCRA and FDCPA laws by reporting an alleged account to my credit report without informing me through mail and I did not receive notice of right to dispute nor did I receive any information to verify that the alleged debt belonged to me. My credit has dropped tremendously in the middle of making a major purchase. Please help me get this account removed immediately. As a consumer, Im publicly publishing this descriptive complaint on www.consumerfinance.gov so that others can learn from my experience and so that this government agency can use this information to help work with other violations and complaints from consumers regarding this company. Under 12 CFR Part 1006 and as a consumer defined under 15 USC 1692a ( 3 ), I'm also preparing to sue under the FCRA and FDCPA because of the numerous consumer law violations committed by this company, damages to my credit and opportunity costs with making a major purchase, and business ventures that must be delayed until this illegal account is removed. It should not be my responsibility to submit proof that this debt does not belong to me. It is the responsibility of the debt collector to submit proof that they can legally collect on the alleged debt, legally report to the credit agencies, and follow all FCRA and FDCPA. As of this date, they have failed to do so. I.C. SYSTEM, INC XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, MN XXXX ( XXXX ) XXXX

I received an email from my credit monitoring service that informed me that my credit profile was adversely impacted. I found that I C SYSTEM had illegally posted an alleged collection account to my credit report. I have never started nor an opened account with this company. My report shows that I C SYSTEM open account was opened XX/XX/2023 with a balance of {$270.00}. By federal law, a debt collector is supposed to make contact with an alleged debtor and give them 30 days to validate or dispute before they move forward with collection attempts. I never received a letter in the mail that gave me 30 days to validate or dispute this account. I never received a letter stating that I have an alleged debt with this company and owe a balance on that account. I, a consumer defined under 15 USC 1692a ( 3 ), understand that, under the FDCPA guidelines for collection agencies, they have to provide ( 1 ) legitimate proof that they are the original holder of this debt and can legally hold me responsible for paying this debt and ( 2 ) contractual proof of obligation or an assignment SIGNED from an officer from the original creditors corporation that I am supposed to pay them. 15 USC 1692g Sec. 809 ( b ) of the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act ( FDCPA ) grants me the right as a consumer to request validation of this alleged debt they say I owe. I fully understand 1692g. Validation of debts ( a ) Notice of debt ; that states within five days after the initial communication with a consumer in connection with the collection of any debt, a debt collector shall, unless the following information is contained in the initial communication or the consumer has paid the debt, send the consumer a written notice containing ( 1 ) the amount of the debt ; ( 2 ) the name of the creditor to whom the debt is owed ; ( 3 ) a statement that unless the consumer, within thirty days after receipt of the notice, disputes the validity of the debt, or any portion thereof, the debt will be assumed to be valid by the debt collector ; ( 4 ) a statement that if the consumer notifies the debt collector in writing within the thirty-day period that the debt, or any portion thereof, is disputed, the debt collector will obtain verification of the debt or a copy of a judgment against the consumer and a copy of such verification or judgment will be mailed to the consumer by the debt collector ; and ( 5 ) a statement that, upon the consumer 's written request within the thirty-day period, the debt collector will provide the consumer with the name and address of the original creditor, if different from the current creditor. ( b ) Disputed debts - If the consumer notifies the debt collector in writing within the thirty-day period described in subsection ( a ) of this section that the debt, or any portion thereof, is disputed, or that the consumer requests the name and address of the original creditor, the debt collector shall cease collection of the debt, or any disputed portion thereof, until the debt collector obtains verification of the debt or a copy of a judgment, or the name and address of the original creditor, and a copy of such verification or judgment, or name and address of the original creditor, is mailed to the consumer by the debt collector.

First - None of the previous options to choose from explain the situation accurately. I believe this was a communicate issue and a refusal to provide information on account they hold for collections due to not having a fax number. XXXX/XXXX/XXXX I called I C Systems to ask questions about information I saw on their website when I went to pay XXXX XXXX XXXX on XXXX/XXXX/XXXX. There were more accounts reporting on / in their system that I had never received the bills for and I wanted to find out what the accounts were from and why I did n't receive a statement from the Provider before it went to collections. The first agent explained that I have to mail a letter for requesting any details on the bills and that it is best to go back to my insurance company instead. She also stated that I would not be provided a paid in full letter on the individual amounts I pay unless I was willing to settle the entire balance. She stated XXXX laws prevented the collection agency from being able to simply give the information on the accounts they are trying to collect on. I stated that the collection account was n't reporting to my credit as XXXX account and the individual amounts were each listed. I needed a paid in full letter for each account and the payment confirmation number. She stated the only method a letter close to my request could be sent would be by fax. I stated I do not have a personal fax machine and asked if it could be emailed to me or sent via mail. The agent responded no. She suggested I go to a public place to receive the letter. I stated this violates my privacy by making me to to a public place or my employer to receive personal medical information about my payments and should n't that be protected under XXXX to keep my information private? I requested to talk to her supervisor. He told me that the fax machine was the only way and kept interrupting me so my voice and concerns could not be recorded on the phone call. I expressed frustration that I was being denied a paid in full letter on the account I just made payment in full on for the amount of XXXX with the previous agent to delete it from my credit report. The amounts are reporting separately and I want to be able to prove each for the credit bureaus and my own records. I requested to speak with his XXXX and he stated he would refer me to the fax was the only method again. I still requested to speak with a XXXX. A gentleman I believe his name was XXXX got on the phone and was not briefed on the conversation which I had to repeat. I stated to all three agents I would report this to the CFBP and BBB for their system not allowing me to receive a separate letter on the paid account in full to remove from my credit report. I told them I wanted to resolve this together and avoid reporting their company. XXXX was not apart of that department, team, and had no authority to help me, but assured me their other XXXX would call me before end of day. The other XXXX did call me before end of day and stated their legal team would draft a letter for me in this situation and mail it my home. I have received the letter and it is not what I requested and has put XXXX of collections accounts that I disputed them updating to my credit reporting and hurting my credit once again. I told the agents I was working with XXXX XXXX XXXX on the amount that showed owing XXXX due to I received XXXX bills for the same XXXX and wanted to know why they all had different account numbers and amounts before paying the wrong XXXX. I stated I could pay the XXXX account when I was paid. They have put on my credit that I dispute these XXXX items and did not remove the paid in full item from XXXX/XXXX/XXXX paid in full with the first agent for XXXX with my XXXX XXXX XXXX card ending in XXXX. I did not state to them I wanted them to list the accounts as disputed and as soon as I understood the bill with the original services XXXX XXXX XXXX I would pay it. I also went onto the online website to pay the other accounts listed on the I C Systems website to pay them in full while I requested the individual statements and would resolve that with the original provider but wanted to make the account as current as I possibly could on XXXX/XXXX/XXXX. That payment was also made with my XXXX XXXX XXXX card ending in # XXXX for a total of XXXX. XXXX is the information reporting on my statement. In conclusion I do not want anyone else to be denied the right to a paid in full letter of an individual bill / XXXX item paid with I-C Systems due to their system will not allow it even though the XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX made it so millions of Americans would no longer be hurt by XXXX XXXX remaining on their credit reports as long as the bill was paid. I paid the XXXX and am denied a letter paid in full due to their system. They also updated my accounts with the credit agencies with false information that I was disputing the owing amount XXXX XXXX XXXX accounts with them. I never stated in those phone calls I was disputing those debts with IC Systems. Also, denied the right to know where the accounts are from and who is reporting it and having to mail in a request, having to receive information only by fax and violating the individuals rights to this information if they do not have access to a private fax line or do not want this information sent to a public fax violating their rights to keep their medical bills / history private. The Collection company can hide behind XXXX laws, but refuse to protect the individual being reported. I want the the negative status of disputing information removed my credit report, the XXXX Removed due to being paid in full. I also want my paid in full letter for the XXXX and an itemized statement with original statements from the providers sent to me. Below is proof off my credit card statement the XXXX bills were paid on XXXX and a link to the information I quoted from the XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX who helped millions of Americans.

Please note the dates here are approximate as I did not expect this situation to reach this point and have not had time to gather exact details as to times and dates. Sometime in XXXX of XXXX, I visited a XXXX retail store to transfer two lines of service from two different carriers into one XXXX account in response to XXXX promotions for free iPhones and credit for paying off accounts at other carriers. I left the store having paid activation fees, taxes, and other typical charges for such a transaction. I was told I would receive devices in the mail and at that time, the numbers would be ported to XXXX. One of the devices arrived sooner than the other so it was setup first. There were issues setting up this device because the XXXX employee had transposed account information from the other carriers. Several weeks passed and the other device did not arrive, so after calling several times to check the status of the order, I soon learned that there was also another issue with the second line being ported. Nevertheless, both devices and lines were eventually activated and in use. Around a month later ( sometime in XXXX, around the XXXX ), I received my first bill from XXXX. I was shocked to see that the total was nearly {$400.00}. This seemed extremely high for 2 lines of service ( one plan being $ XXXX and the other $ XXXX ). Knowing something was wrong, I called XXXX to understand what happened. After spending several hours on the phone, I eventually spoke to someone who could tell me what had happened. It was explained to me that when the 2 lines were setup, they opened a sub account under the main account, which explained being charged double for 2 lines. XXXX acknowledged this was a mistake on their part and that they would merge the sub account into the main account. My next bill immediately dropped to roughly {$170.00}. During this time, my old devices were mailed in, to which I was to receive statement credit for. Shortly after the first bill, I noticed I was not received credit for my device trade ins. I made yet another call to XXXX to straighten out the matter. I referred to the tracking number showing proof of delivery, and the weight of the package. I informed the agent that I placed 2 devices in the same box and returned them together. He agreed that they had one of the devices, but not the other. After speaking to his manager, they agreed it was unlikely both devices were not in the box and that the 2nd was most likely overlooked. This remedied the situation at hand and I was given credit for the device trade ins. Another part of their promotion at the time was their offer to pay the final charges from the provider you switch from so I submitted documents to their rebate center multiple times, each time being told the bill did not contain enough information or that it was not my final bill. I have yet to receive any credit or payment for switching to XXXX as promised. I had not considered contacting any agencies regarding my business transactions with XXXX up to this point until recently. However, a few weeks ago I visited a XXXX store to inquire about additional products. After opening my account, and preparing the order, the employee informed me that I could pay for the devices in full but I was not eligible for financing because of a " write off '' on my account. The account I have with XXXX today is the first, and only, XXXX account I have ever had. Knowing this, and confused, I asked the employee for details. Unfortunately, he was unable to provide them to me and suggested I call customer service. I spent the rest of the day on the phone and chat with XXXX trying to understand what exactly this meant. After some hours and number of transfers later, I spoke to a woman who was able to identify this as a charge from an account for the 2nd line on my account. Still confused, I thought perhaps it was sent from the previous provider. After confirming this was not the case, I started to think more about how this could have happened. It occurred to me, and likely the agent on the phone, that the charges were from the sub account that was erroneously opened when the main account was first setup. I was then transferred to another department and ended up speaking with a manager named XXXX. XXXX inspected the account, and agreed as well, that XXXX had definitely made an error when setting up my service. He also informed me that the amount in question ( ~ {$180.00} ) had already been sent to collections ( IC Systems ) and that XXXX would have to contact the collection agency themselves. A couple of days later, XXXX called me back and had the collection agency on the phone. XXXX acknowledged to the collection agency that the account was not a valid debt, and that XXXX needed to take it back. The collect agency stated they could open a dispute for XXXX weeks but that it would be up to XXXX to clear it on their end. XXXX assured me he would be following up on this and call me when XXXX had taken care of it. I received a call yesterday ( XX/XX/XXXX ) from a different manager named XXXX from XXXX, stating that the recovery department had reviewed the account and deemed it a valid debt that was to be paid. I explained to XXXX the entire situation of how the account came to be in the first place, that I was not responsible for the debt, was not informed it was owed when the sub account was merged, and that I was not paying the amount in question. XXXX informed me I need to call the recovery team at XXXX at XXXX and speak with them directly. They are closed on the weekend so I will be spending yet more of my working hours on hold, waiting to speak to someone and explain this XXXX up all over again from the beginning. Furthermore, I believe the collection agency is breaking the law by purchasing debt that XXXX never informed me of in the first place. I am filing this complain because I feel like if I'm going through this, surely there are others experiencing similar problems. And considering XXXX 's {$1.00} scam from a few years ago, for all I know, this could be another attempt at gouging their customers.

I didn't really want to file this complaint but at this point I have no other choice. On XX/XX/XXXX I called IC systems because I tried applying for a vehicle loan and my bank informed me that I had a XXXX collection on my credit report and my loan would not be optimal. IC Systems was the name of the collector. Because I check my XXXX XXXX religiously, I was confused and shocked since my credit score is in the mid 700 's and my XXXX and XXXX XXXX report have no collections reporting on there. I went back to the bank and asked which credit bureau they use. They informed me they use XXXX. I opened an account with XXXX and saw there was in fact an IC Systems collections for {$84.00}. I decided to call IC systems because I had no idea why there was a collection on my report due to the fact that I was never notified a collection was being placed on my report. At first I spoke with a collector, and informed the collector what was going on. I advised them that I didn't know what this collection was for and I was curious why they claimed I owed {$84.00}. They told me it was for a XXXX account. I acknowledged that I had an account with XXXX but I did not acknowledge that I owed them any money. In fact, I stopped doing business with XXXX years ago and fulfilled my contractual obligations. I asked the collector why I was never contacted about this account by XXXX or IC Systems. The collector told me the account had been in her office since XX/XX/2019 and they sent me various letters. I advised her that I never once received a call or a letter from XXXX or her company. I was again confused and shocked because what she was telling me and what actually occurred were two different things. In order to avoid a lengthy call and spend time unnecessarily, I simply asked the collector if I could pay the account in full and have it removed from my report for various reasons. The first reason was I fulfilled my obligations with XXXX. The second reason was XXXX never notified me a pending balance was owed. The third reason was IC Systems never sent me a notice saying there was a collections to XXXX. The fourth reason was I never received a call from IC Systems. The fifth reason is that short of this collection, my credit was otherwise perfect because I pay all my bills. I do not run or hide from my debts so I am being truthful when I say I have never received any notice about this debt. She then informed me that she sent notices in XXXX and XX/XX/2019. I finally pointed out to her that unfortunately, my house burned down months ago and I am currently living with my mother while the insurance, the fire department, and the city decide what it will take to repair my house back to code. Even if they did send notices to that address, there is a good chance I didn't receive it. After a long argument with her I finally get transferred to a supervisor. The supervisor I spoke with was XXXX. I basically repeated the same thing to him that I did to the previous collector. I offered to simply pay this account to have it removed from my report but he refused. He said that they called my number several times and I hung up on them. He said that many notices were sent to the address on file. I informed him that never received any notices and my credit was otherwise perfect therefore proving that I am not someone who skips their bills or hides from debt. He then said something in a manner which insinuated I was a deadbeat and really offended me. He asked " do you open up all your mail? '' He then said something else which again really offended me and insinuated I was a deadbeat. He said, " At this stage of collections we are the 4th agency to handle this account. '' Basically he stated that this was already with three other collectors and therefore implied that my accounting of what happened was not believable and that I was therefore a liar. When I finally called him out on what I believed to be just a fabrication on his part he did seem to " backpedal '' on his statement. He said he couldn't guarantee that three other collectors touched this account but that generally the account when it reaches his office is at the stage that they are the 4th to collect on it. I advised him of how my house burned down and I am technically homeless and at the mercy of my peers and he said " I am sorry to hear that but we did our due diligence. '' Because I hung up on them there was nothing he could do. At this point I was extremely upset. I felt like I was being treated unfairly. I don't recall ever being called by an IC Systems. In fact, the supervisor acknowledged that they never even informed me about this debt because I would hang up before they even got the chance to. I did tell XXXX that I get multiple spam calls, robo calls, and scam calls on a daily basis. I don't remember anyone telling me they were calling for XXXX but if I hung up on them it's because I am uncertain of who is trying to con me anymore. Regardless, I was still never notified of this debt. I was also the one who called them and I was even willing to forgo fighting this account that I do not owe simply to avoid this lengthy dispute procedure. Instead, I am insulted, patronized, and implied to be a liar and a deadbeat. Please help me with this. I can't believe that something like this is actually causing me to not be able to obtain a fair loan. My house already burned down and I am homeless and now I can't even obtain a car if I don't pay a premium simply because of a debt that XXXX never told me about because a collection agency thinks I'm a deadbeat? Please help me in getting IC Systems to remove this account from my report. As I told them, I am even willing to pay this bill even though I don't owe it.

Dear Sir/Madame I have been disputing this deragatory mark for over a year now and just a couple of weeks ago I finally got the corporate office to take action against the local office creditor, and was subsequently informed ( as I had already known all along ) that I, in fact, did not owe anything at all and that there was a definite error on my account that was never logged or recorded with the local office, and was informed that they would get right on it to make sure this negative account was removed from my credit file. You see, I had already paid in full for the required year for a pet program named " The XXXX XXXX '' which was good for up to a year for regular veterinary visits that were within the plan, however, I had to pay up front any services that were not covered by the plan, such as emergencies, prescription drugs, and/or any medical treatment that was not a regular wellness plan visit. Of course those dues, if any, were paid up in front by me or they would have never seen my dog. However, my yearly due fees for the plan were made in advance and paid up. Well not 2 mos. Into the yearly plan did I have an altercation with one of the veterinary assistants due to her inhumane treatment towards my dog, who had a condition called XXXX at the time, was very weak, very sick to the point of death, and during this critical time in my puppy 's life, she commenced to place a nozzle around my dogs entire mouth and nose as a caution for her to not be bitten during a shot, and I felt that the nozzle was a bit extreme, knowing that dogs do not know how to breath out their noses, and I knew this would somehow cause undue stress upon my puppy while receiving a shot. She then commenced to shove my puppy 's head down and yelling at him during his shot, causing him to be extremely alarmed and aggitated. I explained this to her at this point, whereas she immediately ran to veterinarian complaining of my argument with her. I was then told to leave and when I had made an appointment the following month without incident, after I showed up for the appointment and waiting, the veterinarian saw me and again informed me that they could and would not see me again until I had touch base with an administrative officer to work out this issue if I was to remain in the wellness plan. So asked to leave again,, I never again returned, still having an open, never redeemed remaining balance. I did not fight this and subsequently forgotten for The rest of that year, I did a credit report check to find that they had not only NOT issued me a refund for what I hadn't been able to use, but also charging me another full year for services I never got to use again due to their exiting me from the program and that I was now, unfairly and falsely placed in collections for non payment. This being only after 2 short months of service, with my having a full 8 months more remaining balance on which to utilize their services. I had contacted them right away in hopes to get this resolved and the negative mark eradicated from my credit file immediately! The issue was understood by the creditor and promised measures were to be taken I was informed and would be receiving an update call shortly thereafter. Well that call never came and at that time I had other stressing issues that demanded my attention and that deragatory mark on my record was temporarily forgotten. Well again here I am to date, as I had said earlier, two weeks ago of the promise to remove this negative false mark from my file, as I had explained, it was the only negative mark on my record and it was causing me undue stress and credit worthy issues with other creditor while trying to obtain an auto loan. This contact being my 5th contact with everyone and anyone that pertaining to this account, from creditor, then their corporate office, down to the local office itself who had made the mistake. These creditors for this company as well as corporate, made several phone calls to them about this promised wipe of negativity promised me by them, only to be informed through these other people contacted that they were going to append this issue at once and get this issues deleted, wiped clean off my record because they knew it was an error of their own doing, and would work speedily to get this resolved. I have just today, attempted my 4th phone call in two weeks time, whereas have been informed that nothing has been done for this account as, like the 3 times prior to this, the person handling this issue was not in, but would be in the following day and be up on this issue. Today, again, I've been told the same thing. This was an error on their part which I believe should be handled in more of a timely manner than has. And being the only deragatory record on my credit file, my most recent desire to obtain an auto loan is being thwarted due to this fact, and right now? Right now, I'm demanding that they get right to work on this unwarranted on my part, major error, and get this urgent unwarranted error causing me issues, taken care of IMMEDIATELY! This is by far, no fault of my own, as they also can detest. So why am I being the one who is victimized due to this improper, untimely handling of this? Unfairly so. So I'm begging you to step in for me in investigation this fully and hopefully attaining a proper and immediate resolving of this matter. Have a good rest of the week and thank you very much for offering your assistance on this matter. Sincerely, XXXX XXXX XXXX

Below is a written response Ive prepared for I.C. System Inc, a debt collector on behalf of XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX I.C. System Inc., Im writing in regards to Ref XXXX and to dispute the entire amount of {$1600.00} XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX is attempting to collect. I do not dispute residing at the address or that services were in my name, Im not sure why five zeros precede said account number, and I do strongly believe XXXX had a responsibility in ensuring the electrical service they supplied to the home were in safe conditions. On XX/XX/XXXX I took up residency at the above mentioned location, the outlet in my sons bedroom was faulty and needed to be serviced, shortly after that half the power in the home went out supposedly because we plugged in a humidifier when one of the kids were sick. In XXXX an outlet at the kitchen counter sparked and started smoking for no reason it wasnt in use. For 6 years the Wifi had an unstable connection according to our cable provider. In XXXX a brand new blender that was only used twice sparked and started smoking while my son was making a smoothie. From XXXX XXXX different XXXX vacuums XXXX blown out, The master bedroom lost power so often my beautiful vanity with XXXX touch dimmer lighting blew out. In XX/XX/XXXX the toaster sparked and started smoking, the clothes dryer constantly shorted out and would only work every other load, there was no cover plate on that outlet, nor was there one for the irrigation system in the garage for 5 years, the irrigation system never worked in six years either. If the treadmill was in use in the garage all power in the home above the garage was lost, that happened several times a week. If an air purifier was in use there was also a brown out in half the house. The entire HVAC system was faulty and ran overtime, yet we needed a cooler environment due XXXX and perennial XXXX and the home being so humid, in fact XXXX had a medical baseline form on file throughput the duration of our tenancy. It would later be discovered that in XXXX unpermitted work was performed on the HVAC system, the compressor in the yard and the evaporator coil in the garage were replaced but that particular evaporator coil had a known manufacturer defect and was recalled. On XX/XX/XXXX the dishwasher started smoking and almost caught fire around XXXX XXXX and I couldnt get it to turn off until the fire department was already en route, that smoke and burnt rubber/plastic smell burned our throats for at least three days. The first time the fire department came was when a carbon monoxide detector sounded move to fresh air XX/XX/XXXX. Half of the outlets in the house had been moved from their original location, either up down or to the left or right from where they originally were placed. In XXXX XXXX I called XXXX ( spoke to XXXX ) requesting them to come out and perform a safety inspection of the electrical panel and or system I was told they could not come out without landlord ( Invitation Homes ) approval because they could be sued, I was referred to XXXX XXXX department ( spoke to XXXX ) because I was income qualified, that department reached out to property management ( XXXX ) requesting approval and services were refused, XXXX also referred me to XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX that also had a similar weatherization program and could possibly replace the HVAC system if allowed by property management, but those services were also refused. In XX/XX/XXXX property management sent a vendor that submitted an expedited work order which I will attach to inspect the electrical system because it posed serious risk of electrocution for occupants and children that work was refused. In the meantime Code Enforcement had come out to the home three times ( at my request ) from XXXX XXXX XXXX for issues ranging from plumbing, rodents/wildlife, dry rot/toxic XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX come out there separate times for the smell of gas capping off a gas line at the water heater in XX/XX/XXXX because whoever converted it to electric didnt cap off the line, a hazardous XXXX yr. old stove in XX/XX/XXXX, and for the furnace in XX/XX/XXXX, in XX/XX/XXXX two different vendors turned off the gas line to the XXXX yr old furnace advising replacement. This electric bill had been certified with the XXXX XXXX program from XXXX, yet they never paid anything to XXXX or XXXX XXXX XXXX in two years the only utilities they paid were directly to property management for trash/sewer. The electric bill was also certified with XXXX but they didnt contact me until after I vacated stating they couldnt assist on a closed account yet it was active when I submitted it. I later found out XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX does perform safety check inspections yet I was refused XXXX because they cared more about being sued by the landlord than the welfare of my children and I. On XXXX XXXX we vacated the house 8 days before planned and checked into a hotel because I could no longer stay or stand the conditions we were forced to live in for six years. I officially handed over keys XX/XX/XXXX We lived in XXXX different hotels for well over a month, yet I updated my address with XXXX so this bill wouldnt be sent to collections without my knowledge or a chance to explain our situation while we rebuild our lives and everything we lost. Thank you in advance for allowing me respond in writing. Kind Regards, XXXX XXXX

Complaint against IC System. IC System is a debt collecting agency based out of XXXX XXXX MN. XXXX, located at XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX or XXXX XXXX. Tel XXXX. They were hired by a XXXX XXXX to collect a debt of {$8900.00} from me for uncompleted service. Initially when I got a letter from IC systems on XX/XX/XXXX, I sent a letter back to IC systems disputing the debt. In the letter I attached a copy of the " Term and Fees Schedule addendum ( Also attached ). The addendum that I signed stated that a payment of {$8900.00} would be due if a minimum guarantee of {$80000.00} in loan amount was acquired. In my letter, I stated that the minimum guarantee per contract had not been met and that's why I am not obligated to pay. IC system, then forwarded my letter of dispute to XXXX XXXX, who wrote back to IC system stating that they had acquired loans in the total amount of {$82000.00} and on XX/XX/XXXX I received the letter from IC system stating that they had been provided information validating the debt. They forwarded me a copy of a list of credit lines that XXXX XXXX claim as approved and received ( Attached ). The IC letter dated XX/XX/XXXX to me ( attached ), also stated that " If you still question the obligation to pay, contact our office immediately. Since the list showed credit lines in my name that I was not aware of, I called the banks to ask if I had any existing credit lines in my name in the credit amounts listed that I was not aware of that were opened in the first quarter of XXXX, since XXXX started applying on my behalf during XXXX - XXXX XXXX XXXX. Every bank I doubted to have a credit card with them, confirmed that I didn't have any credit lines with them in the amounts stated which had been opened in that time period. That very night, I wrote a letter back to IC system ( attached ), indicating what credit lines on that list were legit and which ones were not legit. I mailed that letter with the copy of the verified credit lines from that list on XX/XX/XXXX and mailed it the next morning. The verified credit lines amounted to {$37000.00} and only 2 of the credit lines were in the business name yet according to the initial promise from XXXX XXXX all credit lines were to be business. Please check XXXX to see how misleading their website is to small business owners. They appear to be a real financial company that will give you good size loan at 0 % for 12 months, sounds appealing and then they collect all your personal information for the approval and then turn around and start to apply for multiple credit cards on your behalf and at the same time coach you how to lie to the banks if you get a call. If there wasn't anything misleading and fraudulent, they would tell you straight up on the first call and on the first page of their website state their services as " We will apply for multiple credit cards on your behalf for 10 % commission, but that is not the case. Please look up their reviews from other small business owners that have been scammed. Back to the story, Later that day I got notified by XXXX XXXX via email that there were collection debts in the amount of {$8900.00} reported to my name on the 2 of the credit bureaus. Issues with IC system : 1.Why did they report my account on a debt that had an unresolved dispute? 2. Why did they send me a letter dated XX/XX/XXXX and received XX/XX/XXXX and then report my account to the bureau on XX/XX/XXXX, without giving me a chance to respond. 3. Why did they say on the letter dated XX/XX/XXXX that if I still questioned the obligation, I should contact them immediately and yet turn around to report my account to the agency without giving me a window of time to receive the letter and respond accordingly? I immediately called IC system, I spoke to the first lady and expressed the above stated issues, she would not listen to my questions, she was rude on the phone and told me that they didn't have to wait for my response and asked me if I wanted to make a payment. Noticing that she couldn't listen to me, I decided to end the call and call again and hopefully find someone else to talk to. I immediately called back and spoke to a gentleman by the name XXXX, he noticed that I just called and so I gave him a quick history of the situation and asked, why was I reported to the bureau on disputed account and why didn't they give me a chance to respond and why was my credit score being ruined unfairly? I also asked what was their standard procedures on accounts that were in dispute? After putting me on hold, he came back and said, their client was XXXX XXXX and they don't have to wait nor giving attention to my second dispute, they only consider first dispute and once they get back more information from their client, they would not be open to second dispute. I asked then, why does your letter tell me to contact you immediately if I still question the obligation to pay, yet you would not honor the very statement in your letter to me? He didn't have an answer for me and could not escalate the issue to someone higher either. At that point, I told him that I was going to seek help and consult with CFPB and the bureaus to protect my already excellent credit. So that is my story and I am sticking to it, please let me know if any questions and appreciate your help looking into this case.

On or about XX/XX/XXXX, I received an undated demand for payment of {$380.00} from IC Systems , Inc., stemming from an alleged debt due XXXX XXXX XXXX. I responded in writing to IC Systems , Inc. on the same date informing them that this is not a valid debt, that they were at least the sixth debt collection company that XXXX XXXX XXXX has used to collect this invalid debt, and that I had already filed complaints about XXXX XXXX XXXX 's attempts to collect this invalid debt with your agency and the Federal Communications Commission. Subsequently, on XX/XX/XXXX, IC Systems , Inc. reported this invalid debt to the credit reporting companies as a means to intimidate me into paying the invalid debt. It is worth noting that IC Systems , Inc. made one effort to communicate with me and did not request any additional information. It is also worth noting that XXXX XXXX XXXX has likely defrauded at least six debt collection companies by repeatedly selling this same invalid debt. Further information is as follows : On XX/XX/XXXX, I contacted XXXX XXXX XXXX regarding my Internet service account, XXXX, to inform them I had closed the bank account I had been using for automatic payment deductions and to inform them of my new account. I was directed to a customer service center that was clearly not in the United States, where the XXXX XXXX XXXX representative proceeded to go over my payment details for this account. This XXXX XXXX XXXX representative inaccurately stated that my monthly payment for Internet service was {$70.00} per month. I corrected the representative and advised her it was {$30.00} per month and that this had been my monthly payment, which XXXX XXXX XXXX had been deducting without complaint or notice of change, for more than two years. The representative placed me on hold several times and then told me that the price was {$70.00} per month because I had discontinued XXXX XXXX. I informed the representative that I discontinued XXXX XXXX in XXXX, nearly two years prior to that time, and maintained only the Internet service that XXXX XXXX XXXX had been billing and receiving payment for {$30.00} per month since. It is important to note that XXXX XXXX XXXX never informed me that the Internet service was subject to a price increase and continued to process the automatic deduction for $ 30 monthly for nearly two years. Of course, had XXXX XXXX XXXX ever attempted to more than double the price for this Internet service, I would have cancelled it immediately. At this point, I informed the XXXX XXXX XXXX representative that I had simply called to change my bank account information and that her repeated insistence that the price was more than double what I had been paying was going to instead result in XXXX XXXX XXXX losing my business. After a few minutes more of this intolerable customer service, the XXXX XXXX XXXX representative informed me she would transfer me to another customer service center. I informed her I would not wait to be transferred and directed her to simply cancel my XXXX XXXX XXXX Internet service. The XXXX XXXX XXXX representative protested and stated she was transferring me, and I advised her that I had now authorized her to only cancel my account immediately. Later that same day, XX/XX/XXXX, I received a voicemail from XXXX XXXX XXXX wanting to discuss my cancellation. Clearly, since all customer service calls are recorded and XXXX XXXX XXXX contacted me regarding such, XXXX XXXX XXXX was well aware of my direction to cancel the service. Somehow, within 30 days, on XX/XX/XXXX, XXXX XXXX XXXX sent me a bill for {$170.00} for Internet service and informed me that the service I demanded they cancel was suspended. On XX/XX/XXXX, XXXX XXXX XXXX sent me another Internet service bill for {$290.00}. ( Notably, XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX bills for XXXX and XXXX suggest they increased the Internet service to more than $ 100 monthly. ) Based on this interaction and egregiously awful customer service, I made a decision to also terminate all of my business with XXXX XXXX XXXX, which included my XXXX XXXX XXXX cellular phone service, account number XXXX. On XX/XX/XXXX, I transferred my cellular service to XXXX and discontinued my XXXX XXXX XXXX cellular service effective immediately that day. However, XXXX XXXX XXXX somehow did not make this connection and continued to attempt to bill me, sending a bill on XX/XX/XXXX for {$380.00} and threatening to suspend the cellular service that I had voluntarily disconnected and transferred on XX/XX/XXXX. It is important to note the disconnect between XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX website and their billing department ; immediately after transferring my service to XXXX, I was unable to log into my XXXX XXXX XXXX account. Clearly, XXXX XXXX XXXX was well aware I had terminated service, yet continued to attempt to bill me for a service they were not providing. At the time I transferred my service to XXXX, my cellular balance was {$0.00} as I had made an XXXX XXXX XXXX cellular service payment on XX/XX/XXXX in the amount of {$150.00}. Clearly, I had no balance at the time I transferred my cellular service to XXXX. XXXX XXXX XXXX has subsequently sold this invalid debt to XXXX, XXXX, XXXX XXXX XXXX and now IC Systems , Inc. debt collection companies.

Hello, to whom it may concern my name is XXXX XXXX XXXX consumer ). I am A federally protected consumer s defined by 15 U.S.C. 1692a ( 3 ) that resigns in Utah ; I would like to thank you for the opportunity to let me address my concerns regarding the third party ; I.C. system ( I.C. ) Debt collector define in 15 usc 1692a, engaged in the business of a collection agency, using telephone & mail to collect consumer debts for profit, I.C. has infringed upon my rights to privacy under the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act, ( FDCPA ) 15 U.S.C. 1692 ( a ). On XX/XX/XXXX I entered a consumer credit transaction with XXXX XXXX with my accepted credit card presume to 15 usc 1602 a ( I ) under the Truth in Lending Act. The Debt was primarily for personal, family or household purposes and is therefore a debt as defined by 15 U.S.C. 1692a ( 5 ) In the initial communication XXXX XXXX as failed to disclose who they are, and what their initial intentions were to attempt to collect a debt, failure to disclose this information is a violation under 15 usc 1692e ( 11 ). I XXXX XXXX ( consumer ) Have noticed XXXX XXXX has took a Tax write off on this Charge off account and sold the Debt to I.C. system. I.C then took my information, furnished an alleged debt for {$800.00} to the consumer reporting agency without my prior consent. I.C. system ( debt collector ) has communicated with me in connection with the collection of a debt which is a violation Under the FDCPA 15 usc 1692c ( a ) I would like to ask how my location information was acquired, and who provided you consent to communicate with I ( consumer ) which I would like I.C system to provide me my written consent of such action, If the request can not be provided, this will be in direct violation of 15 U.S. Code 1692c ( a ). During my initial communication with I.C. system I requested the debt collector to provide me validation of debt, whom the Original creditor was on that debt and to Cease all further collection efforts regarding to the accounts under federal law 15 usc 1692C ( c ). On XX/XX/XXXX I.C. systems have communicated with me defined by 15 usc 1692 ( 2 ) with Statements not respecting the validation request I asked for and the cease & desist request I made clearly with them. This letter was misleading and confusing because it fails to provide the name of the creditor to whom the debt is owed. This form provided information that would allow the least sophisticated consumer to determine the minimum amount that i owed at the time of the receipt of the letter. This letter failed to provide information that would allow, I to determine what will I need to pay to resolve the debt at the time of the receipt of the letter also this letter failed to provide information that would allow the least sophisticated consumer to detriment the amount of billing fees owed and whether any additional billing fees will be added, the date they be added, & the amount that be added. The tender of an illusory settlement is a deceptive means to attempt to coerce a payment from the debtor. .I.C. system used symbols other than the debt collectors address on envelope, which a debt collector may only use the business name if such name does not indicate that he is in the debt collection business. Which is a violation of 15 usc 1692F ( 8 ). Also I.C. system have accused me ( consumer ) of this alleged debt which is a violation under federal law 15 usc 1692b ( 1 ) ( 2 ) I.C. system has harassed me to coerce payment on a debt that they have advertised to me which has ruined my reputation by furnishing my information publicly without my consent this Is a violation of 15 usc 1692d ( 1 ) ( 4 ) I have found in my investigation that I.C. has claimed the original creditor was XXXX XXXX which in fact this firm was just the creditor of the credit sale. The failure of a consumer to dispute the validity of a debt under this section may not be construed by any court as an admission of liability by the consumer. This is the 2nd time I have disputed the validity of this debt, and for this debt collector to cease further Communication with me through any median. I have sent my document to them certified mail with return recipe to keep a file, if litigation process is needed. I the original creditor I am requesting actual and statutory damages brought by Defendant I.C. system for violating the FAIR DEBT COLLECTION PRACTICE ACT, 15 U.S.C 1692 et seq Which prohibits debt collectors from engaging in abusive, deceptive, and unfair debt collection practices this is a violation of 15 usc 1692g ( 5 ). I request all further collection efforts against I XXXX XXXX XXXX regarding the accounts and any negative credit reporting be removed of any database. In addition, to the damages I am requesting XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX to settle. If this offer is not accepted, my next step will be taking this case to legal proceeding to litigation.

We subscribed to XXXX Phone Services from XXXX until XX/XX/XXXX, when I retired and no longer needed their services; We had one (1) flip-phone, one (1) smart-phone, and one (1) hot-spot; We went to the XXXX XXXX office in XXXX, Idaho, and paid the remaining balance on the smart-phone, paid our bill, and returned the hot-spot, as it could not be transferred to XXXX XXXX, our new carrier; The CSR explained they could not credit anything for the hot-spot, as it was not a current model, and I agreed, but had no use for it so gave it back; I explained why we were switching carriers, and the CSR pulled up our account, we paid the balance, and he assured us our account was closed; We went across the street to XXXX and enrolled in XXXX XXXX, transferring our numbers, and obtained a XXXX hot-spot; A month later, XX/XX/XXXX, I got an E-mail saying my XXXX bill was due; We again went to the store and spoke to a "Senior CS" who pulled up our account by my SSN, where he saw the account was closed, but with a charge pending; I explained what we had done the previous month, so he spoke with the original CSR, removed the charges, and again assured me the matter was resolved and the account was closed; Then in XX/XX/XXXX, I received a couple of texts from a collection agency regarding "an outstanding XXXX account"; We were 78 miles away from XXXX, so called the XXXX store we've always dealt with; I called the store and asked to speak with the Manager; I called seven (7) times over the next four (4) days... he was not in yet, in a meeting, on another call, or with a customer; I scheduled a return call with the assistant manager, which was not returned; We again drove to the same XXXX store, to find the manager was again in another meeting which could not be interrupted; The CSR got XXXX, the assistant manager, and I again explained the situation to both of them and a couple more employees; Again, he pulled up my info using my SSN, and told me that as of that time accounts cannot be closed in person, only by calling a toll-free number; I told him I was never notified of that when we closed our account; He found everything had been paid in full and cancelled, except the hot-spot; Apparently, as it was no longer a current model, the CSR had not entered a code number to remove it, so the line charge continued, even though the unit was in XXXX possession; XXXX verified that no usage had occurred, then he reversed the charges, bringing the account back to XXXX (XXXX); XXXX assured me he had covered the bases, and would forward all the notes to the manager, XXXX XXXX, who would remove the Collection Activities; Two (2) days later, I received a Voice Message from XXXX XXXX assuring me the matter was resolved and the Collection Action had been recalled; He apologized for the problem, and for all the trouble I had gone through to get it resolved; In XX/XX/XXXX, I got a phone call from IC Systems, a Washington, D.C. debt collector, in regards to the same XXXX account; Again we drove from Washington State to the XXXX, Idaho XXXX store, to speak with XXXX XXXX; I spoke with four (4) CSRs, finally ending up with a new assistant manager who told me both XXXX and XXXX were no longer with XXXX, the debt was still pending and in Collections, and XXXX was not able to do anything about it; I was in the office for over an hour, during which time they refused to get a manager, and refused to give me the manager's name; As for resolving the matter, she handed me a card with the address of the XXXX Customer Relations Collection Department on it, and the phone number of the Collection Company; I sent a letter stating the above to XXXX XX/XX/XXXX, and have heard nothing from them; On XX/XX/XXXX, I received a call from another Collection Agency; When I explained the situation to the person calling, he transferred me to his manager, and I explained everything again; I told him I was disputing the entire debt, as it was XXXX mis-handling which caused the entire problem; The connection was bad, so I asked them to e-mail me their name and contact info, but have as yet not received anything from them; I do have the phone number (XXXX) the call came in on, but the reverse phone lookup doesn't tell me the name, only that the number is registered to someone in XXXX, Idaho; I am retired, on SSN only, with a XXXX wife to worry about; I don't owe this debt, and I want XXXX to do whatever they have to do to clear it and get my name off the rolls of these and all debt collectors; A bad credit rating can very easily cause me to be evicted from my mobile home park, and I am not able to find another place to live; And, being on Social Security, I do not have an extra $XXXX to throw at this rip-off;

Please help me. I am so infuriated right now. Last month I spoke with IC Systems. I spoke with a collector named XXXX XXXX. I called because I saw on my credit report a couple of collections with IC Systems name on it. I tried to fight them with XXXX but I was told the collections were verified. When I called IC Systems I was told the accounts were for a wellness program at XXXX XXXX XXXX. When I asked questions about it, the collector told me it could be for an auto renewal on a program that we didn't know auto-renewed. I informed him those weren't technically legal so I asked more questions. He then said things are muddy on his side because IC Systems didn't get an itemized statement. I then asked him for the paperwork that shows I signed up for this auto renewal. XXXX gave me an e-mail to XXXX XXXX XXXX. He said in our conversation that he was speculating about what the debt was for. After some more investigation on my end XXXX started getting upset and told me " I understand you aren't trying to pay this at all. '' I advised him that was not the case but simply that I wanted to make sure what the bill was for before I paid it. He then started telling me to talk to XXXX instead of fighting with him. I informed XXXX that if I'm supposed to talk to XXXX, why does his company exist and why are they collecting? XXXX informed me he's collecting and reporting on behalf of XXXX. I then reiterated that if I was going to deal with XXXX, and XXXX wants me to contact them for any information regarding this debt, then his company should just cancel this account, remove it from my credit report, and send it back to XXXX so I could deal with them. I finally asked him for an e-mail to IC Systems, or an address, or a fax so I could send his company something in writing. XXXX then said " I can guarantee you that if you just send like a random letter stating anything of regarding this that it's not going to ... like I can give you an address but its not going to do much for this situation. '' He then said in the same conversation " sending me any documentation of this.. anything related to this is not necessarily going to like ... that information we have nothing to do with this. '' He finally said " if you want to send a letter to make yourself feel better that's fine. '' After asking him numerous times for his address and fax he finally gives them to me. I then asked to be transferred to a supervisor. XXXX was her name. XXXX is her employee number. I explained this entire conversation to the supervisor. In the end the supervisor gave me several explanations which were also found wanting. After I told her what the requirements for auto renewals were, she told me auto renewals and the laws regarding them vary from state to state. She then claimed XXXX followed the laws regarding auto renewals. I then asked her what state this auto renewal agreement was signed in and she said she didn't know .... She then said she didn't have that information ... Essentially, she was also telling me she didn't have the info to prove this debt was legitimate. I then sent this company a dispute letter the same day to the address provided to me explaining my problems with these collections and why they are not valid. I did it the same day this phone call was made which was XX/XX/XXXX. The address is XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX MN XXXX and also to XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX MN XXXX. To this day I have not received any correspondence acknowledging my dispute or a response to it. To reiterate my problems with this collection agency and this erroneous debt ; IC Systems does not have any solid information on this debt. They have no contract, itemization, or proof of what is owed. They are refusing to provide me with any documentation and are in fact dissuading me from sending a dispute as is my right under the F.D.C.P.A. They are even going above and beyond in illegal activities by telling me my dispute letter will be pointless and nothing will be done with it and to only send it to make me feel better. They demeaned my character by telling me they were aware I wasn't trying to pay this collection at all in a matter of fact tone. Even the supervisor made a blatantly false statement by telling me that XXXX followed all the laws regarding auto-renewals when she didn't even know what state the auto renewal was signed in or had no access to that information. She just made an assumption. This has gotten so out of hand that I will not accept anything less than the complete eradication of these accounts. they need to be removed from my report and cancelled all together.

The last phone of my service with XXXX was cancelled in XXXX of XXXX. In XXXX of XXXX ( see attached email ), I was threatened to be sent to collections for an unpaid bill. The phone service at this point had already been disconnected since XXXX. After several attempts to contact XXXX customer service, waiting on hold for more than XXXX minutes, and being disconnected twice, this email was sent. There was no reply to the email. Following this email, I continued my efforts to pay the bill and after several more attempts was able to do so. At which time the final bill was paid and all service disconnected. Or so I thought. Then in XXXX of XXXX ( see attached email ) I was again threatened with being sent to collections for an unpaid bill. After spending multiple hours on the phone again with customer service, I was notified that while the bill was paid in XXXX and the phone number had been disconnected for several months, the lease on the phone had not been stopped. Apparently, XXXX felt that it made sense to keep a lease on a phone that no longer had service ( Since XXXX ). This was after the phone call in XXXX in which all services were to be disconnected. At this time, after several hours on the phone, I wished the issue to be closed and paid the outstanding balance. At this time XXXX did cancel the accounts and sent a return label to return the phone. The phone was returned as promised with no further communication. Then in XXXX of XXXX I was contacted via phone by IC Systems, Sprints collection agency, for an unpaid bill. I responded immediately to IC systems and disputed the charge. I was told by IC systems that the charges were for the phone never being returned. I assured the IC systems rep that the phone had been returned and the rep told me that he would mark the charge as disputed, get in touch with XXXX, and respond to me, and that it would not go on my credit as long as it was disputed. A response was never received. Then in XXXX of XXXX, IC systems again called me. The representative had no knowledge of the previous call and stated that they would not call XXXX and that they were not sure why I had been told that they would. At this time I disputed again that the phone had been returned and the IC systems representative told me that I would need to contact XXXX to discuss the matter of the returned phone. I called XXXX, and while the hold times were significantly better, the customer service representative was unable to resolve the problem. After being on the phone with the customer service representative for more than an hour I was told that the phone was in fact returned but was damaged. I asked what the damage was, as the phone was sent back in good condition. The customer service representative said that the notes did not say what the damage was, just that it was damaged, and there was nothing that could be done other than pay the outstanding bill. At this time I her that was not acceptable and that if she was unable to at least tell me what the damage is ( really should have pictures ) that I was not going to pay more money to sprint. She said there was nothing that she could do, at which time I asked to speak with a supervisor. After waiting on hold for XXXX minutes, I spoke to a supervisor. After explaining the situation to the supervisor I was put on hold again. After being on hold for ANOTHER XXXX minutes I was cold transferred to the IC systems main number. This was without an explanation or a resolution to the problem, AFTER BEING ON THE PHONE WITH XXXX FOR OVER AN HOUR AND A HALF. I then spoke to the IC Systems representative that answered the phone and was told that IC Systems would not be able to assist me and that I would need to contact Sprint. I sent the attached letter on XX/XX/XXXX to XXXX and IC Systems. I have yet to receive a response. At this point it feels like I have no recourse. The phone was returned in good condition. XXXX says that it wasn't, but is unable or unwilling to even be able to say what was wrong with it. So I can just pay the money, or deal with it on my credit, which feels very unfair. I think they should at least tell me what was wrong with the phone, but should really have pictures or something. I feel that this situation is unacceptable and that the practices being employed by XXXX and IC Systems are in violation of the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act ( FDCPA )

The account on file is on behalf of XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX. It is showing on my credit report with IC Systems Collections. On multiple occasions myself and my husband were told we did not have anything further that was due or any equipment to turn in for multiple reasons. Once my account was terminated they then told me I owed the amount shown. I tried multiple times to discuss this with them and have them listen to the phone calls that are supposedly recorded as proof and they refused, said I lied and told me I owed this amount. There should be multiple recordings of them advising I couldnt turn in equipment due to covid and then when I completely cancelled all services with them I specifically asked if I showed anything else due and was told no. Also set up a pickup time to pickup the remaining equipment I had and he never actually picked it up. I have dates that can be provided for most things as needed. And on top of that, I never once agreed to pay IC systems anything. I dont owe that company, or the one they represent anything. During covid I called XXXX to cancel our cable. We were advised that due to covid there were no drop off locations open or available to return our equipment to and they were not taking back equipment. Due to covid. Aside from one box and remote, out of 4 I had in my home, the other 3 stayed in my phone from that time until I cancelled our internet. I dont have the exact date that the cable was cancelled, but can probably find out if needed, although it should be on file with the company. At no time during this period did I receive any bill or communication requesting their equipment back for the cancelled cable. Then on XX/XX/2022 I called to cancel our internet service with them as we had changed providers. Before I ended the call with him I asked, do I show that I owe anything else at all. I was placed on a hold and he came back and said I showed nothing else outside of the internet modem and I had 14 days to return it. Then on XX/XX/2022, my husband returned the modem to a local store and was told that we still showed other equipment out there that needed to be returned. He informed her of what we were told and she told him that was not the case and their office was never closed. EVERYWHERE closed at some point during covid. Her name was XXXX at the XXXX ky office. I reached Out to customer service multiple times after this and provided them with dates, context of the conversations and what was told and asked that they listen to the recordings of the phone calls because I no longer had the equipment they were asking for, with the exception of 1 box and remote, that was upstairs in a kids room. When youre told twice that you have nothing left showing to return why would you continue to keep those items just sitting in your house? They refused and just kept telling me it was owed. I then set up and appt for a local person to come to my house around the end of XXXX, sorry I dont Remember the exact date, but I do know it was scheduled on XX/XX/XXXX for him to come to my home and pick up the remaining box and remote I had, to be set out on my porch for him to pick up. That box and remote is STILL sitting on my back porch to this day, over a year later. I also Offered to pay for the box and remote that I got Rid of before completely cancelling my entire account with them to cover that, and that was also not acceptable. At this point, I am Still willing to return the box I have At my home and pay for the box and remote I got rid of after the first time I was Told I didnt Have to return anything, even though, I was Told I didnt Have to as all locations were closed. I was Then also told that when I spoke With someone on one occasion that the gentleman I spoke With on XX/XX/XXXX couldnt see my whole account then why place me on hold to check and see if I show That Im owed anything else. They have been beyond unhelpful in this entire process even after trying to work with them in multiple ways, and now they have turned an account over to a collections company which is negatively affecting my otherwise good credit. I have Never once had any issue like this with any other company and when I can Give you dates that I was Told certain information to verify what I was Told and you refuse to listen and say that I would never have been told that is a terrible way to handle things.

I received an email from my credit monitoring service. It informed me that my credit score had dropped a tremendous amount of points. I logged on and found that I C SYSTEM had illegally posted an alleged collection account to my credit profile. Prior to the email, I have never heard of nor had an account with this company. My report shows that it is an open account and was opened on XXXX with a balance of {$660.00}. I have no knowledge of this company, nor this alleged debt. I have never had any dealings with this company. By federal law, a debt collector is supposed to make contact with an alleged debtor and give them 30 days to validate or dispute before they move forward with collection attempts. I never receive a letter in the mail that gave me 30 days to validate or dispute this account. I never received a letter stating that I have an alleged debt with this company and owe a balance on that account. Again, I have absolutely no knowledge of this account with them. I, a consumer defined under 15 USC 1692a ( 3 ), understand that, under the FDCPA guidelines for collection agencies, they have to provide ( 1 ) legitimate proof that they are the original holder of this debt and can legally hold me responsible for paying this debt and ( 2 ) contractual proof of obligation or an assignment SIGNED from an officer from the original creditors corporation that I am supposed to pay them. 15 USC 1692g Sec. 809 ( b ) of the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act ( FDCPA ) grants me the right as a consumer to request validation of this alleged debt they say I owe. I did not receive notice of right to dispute nor did I receive any information to verify that the alleged debt belonged to me. If I would have gotten anything in the mail or phone call from this company before they illegally reported to my credit report, I would have respectfully requested evidence that I am the person they are asking to pay this debt and a contractual obligation that legally binds me to pay them this debt. Upon them receiving my validation letter by certified mail with return receipt, they would have to legally cease from collection calls, letters, and efforts and delete the account from my credit reports until they can validate this debt. But again, I never received such a letter about this account or phone call ever in the mail because it was never sent. In order for them to prove that I received it properly, the proper letter should have been mailed certified mail with return receipt or by some form of proof of postage that would require my signature. And if the company did mail anything to me, where is the legal proof of my signature stating that I received it? Where is the return receipt or postage signature showing that I received it and signed for it? But again, I never received any sort of mail orpackage because it was never sent. They have illegally posted and reported to my credit file without adhering to the FDCPA laws. Im not sure if this company is a scam, but I know that this company has broken FCRA and FDCPA laws by reporting an alleged account to my credit report without informing me through mail or phone and I did not receive notice of right to dispute nor did I receive any information to verify that the alleged debt belonged to me. My credit score has dropped tremendously in the middle of making a purchase. Please help me get this account removed immediately. As a consumer, Im publicly publishing this descriptive complaint on consumerfinance.gov so that others can learn from my experience and so that this government agency can use this information to help work with other violations and complaints from consumers regarding this company. As a consumer defined under 15 USC 1692a ( 3 ), I'm also preparing to sue under the FCRA and FDCPA because of the numerous consumer law violations committed by this company, damages to my credit and opportunity costs with making a major purchase, and business ventures that must be delayed until this illegal account is removed. It should not my responsibility to submit proof that this debt does not belong to me. It is the responsibility of the debt collector to submit proof that they can legally collect on the alleged debt and legally report to the credit agencies. As of this date, they have failed to do so.

( Summary ) I set up a payment arrangement to reinstate internet service. XXXX broke the arrangement and shut it off the next day. I made a new arrangement, and it was turned back on. They went back on their arrangement again, less than an hour later, and demanded more money or they'd shut off service. ( What happened ) I previously had internet service with XXXX, and it ended with a final balance of {$410.00}. I am not currently working, but I'm starting a new job in XXXX. XX/XX/XXXX, I called XXXX ( phone XXXX ) and asked if I can make partial payments toward the past due balance, above and beyond the normal monthly bill, to restore service. At least until paychecks start coming in and then I can pay off the previous balance in full. XXXX, a rep from I.C. Systems, XXXX XXXX collection agency ( phone XXXX ), agreed to these terms. As did XXXX in XXXX Sales. I asked what minimum payment I could do, and XXXX advised $ XXXX/month. The three of us were in agreement. I'd pay an extra $ XXXX/month on top of my normal bill in order to restore service, and then I'd pay more towards the past due when I could. So, I made a payment for {$26.00} ( {$25.00} plus debit card convenience fee ), confirmation # XXXX to IC Systems, account # XXXX. XXXX with XXXX advised my normal monthly bill will arrive in the mail, and my service was restored. Less than 24 hours later, on XX/XX/XXXX, the service was cut off. I called XXXX to ask what happened, and XXXX in XXXX collections advised the payment I made was insufficient, and my prior balance needs to be paid in full to restore service. I advised that I had an arrangement with XXXX in IC Systems and XXXX in sales. XXXX said that she can not honor the prior agreement. I advised that these are not the expectations that were set prior to charging my card, and I let her know the company is not honoring what they're advising their customers. As XXXX could not assist me further, I asked her to have a supervisor call me back. Immediately after my call with XXXX from XXXX, I called IC Systems to see if the misunderstanding could be cleared up on their end. I conferenced the call between XXXX from IC Systems and XXXX, a sales supervisor at XXXX, so we could all 3 discuss the issue. XXXX advised that the payment I made was incorrectly processed by the rep XXXX as a one time payment, rather than a recurring payment. XXXX advised it was only because I didn't have a recurring monthly arrangement that XXXX isn't seeing the approval to restore service. I asked XXXX and XXXX if we can get this corrected. I asked to have repayments scheduled to come out each month automatically. XXXX was having system issues and could not set up autopay for me. XXXX said when I call next month to pay, I can set up autopay at that time instead - and she will thoroughly note that this is the plan. They both agreed that this was satisfactory, and XXXX turned services back on before we even hung up. Less than an hour after ending the call with XXXX and XXXX, I get a call from XXXX. She is XXXX 's supervisor ; the collections supervisor I had requested earlier. I let her know that we cleared up the confusion. She tells me that the matter is not resolved, and that the past due still needs to be paid in full, minus the {$25.00} that I paid. I filled her in that I had an arrangement, and it was broken shortly after getting my payment. I also told her that I agreed to autopay in a 2nd arrangement. She confirmed that she would not honor the prior 2 arrangements, even though a fellow supervisor signed off on it. And unless I made an additional payment, she'd immediately disconnect service. She wouldn't honor her company 's word, but offered a compromise. If I changed the arrangement from $ XXXX/month to {$75.00} every 2 weeks and throw in an extra {$100.00} today I could keep my internet on. As my new job requires internet to work remotely, I had no choice but to agree. I called IC Systems and paid {$100.00} ( {$100.00} plus processing fee ) with rep XXXX. Confirmation # XXXX. This is the 3rd arrangement in two days I've made with XXXX. Who knows if someone is going to call me again tomorrow demanding new terms. Agreements I made previously mean nothing to them. XXXX holds XXXX accountability for what they tell their customers. And they take payments under false pretenses.

I did not request verification I requested investigation there is a difference. I reached out to the collection agency and got no validation from them. I sent the collection agency this letter with specifications that I was looking for to validate this debt and got no response. Its been well over 30 days and this information still on my credit. This is the letter I sent and faxed : To Whom It May Concern : Be advised this is not a refusal to pay, but a notice that your claim is disputed and validation is requested. Under the Fair Debt collection Practices Act ( FDCPA ), I have the right to request validation of the debt you say I owe you. I am requesting proof that I am indeed the party you are asking to pay this debt, and there is some contractual obligation that is binding on me to pay this debt.

At this time I will also inform you that if your offices have or continue to report invalidated information to any of the three major credit bureaus ( XXXX, XXXX, XXXX XXXX ), this action might constitute fraud under both federal and state laws. Due to this fact, if any negative mark is found or continues to report on any of my credit reports by your company or the company you represent, I will not hesitate in bringing legal action against you and your client for the following : Violation of the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act and Defamation of Character. I am sure your legal staff will agree that non-compliance with this request could put your company in serious legal trouble with the FTC and other state or federal agencies. If your offices are able to provide the proper documentation as requested in the following declaration, I will require 30 days to investigate this information and during such time all collection activity must cease and desist. Also, during this validation period, if any action is taken which could be considered detrimental to any of my credit reports, I will consult with legal counsel for suit. This includes any listing of any information to a credit-reporting repository that could be inaccurate or invalidated. If your offices fail to respond to this validation request within 30 days from the date of your receipt, all references to this account must be deleted and completely removed from my credit file and a copy of such deletion request shall be sent to me immediately. It would be advisable that you and your client assure that your records are in order before I am forced to take legal action. CREDITOR/DEBT COLLECTOR DECLARATION Please provide the following : Agreement with your client that grants you the authority to collect on this alleged debt. Agreement that bears the signature of the alleged debtor wherein he/she agreed to pay the creditor. Any insurance claims been made by any creditor regarding this account.

There has been an improper derogatory report placed on my credit by IC system with respect to my prior account with XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX. This is an incorrect report, it must be removed from my credit report in its entirety. I switched to XXXX for both my TV account and cell phone account In XX/XX/XXXX. My prior TV account and mobile phone account was with XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX. After I had completed all my obligations in full with XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, I received a bill stating that I owed {$130.00} which was not correct, I had paid them in full. I called XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX on XX/XX/XXXX to inquire why I was still receiving a bill that was still showing a balance owed. I spoke with XXXX. XXXX looked at the account and told me that the only reason that a balance was shown as still being owed was because I had not returned the XXXX rental equipment, and that the account could be corrected when the rental equipment was returned. I told XXXX that I had already returned the equipment shortly after I had ended my XXXX services and went to XXXX. XXXX asked me to give him the XXXX return reference number for the XXXX store return and he would be able to correct the account balance to accurately reflect nothing owed. I told him I was not at home, where the XXXX receipt was, but when I got home I would call him. He said OK. When I returned home, I found the receipt, called XXXX at XXXXXXXX XXXX, gave him the reference numbers for the the return on XX/XX/XXXX to XXXX store XXXX and he said that he would correct the account to accurately reflect nothing due. I received no further invoices from XXXX. There is no evidence that XXXX XXXX or IC systems contacted XXXX on this. They very well should have done this, that telephone call with XXXX was likely recorded. That would clear this all up. The IC report is improper and must immediately be corrected and removed from my credit report. IC system is a collection agency. I had no direct dealings with them whatsoever. I receive no notice whatsoever from them about any money being owed on my account. The first I knew this when I received a report from my credit watch that something was going on. This is totally unacceptable. Upon learning of this wrongful derogatory information being on my current report, I went online to fill out a dispute report on XXXX. I had great difficulty utilizing their website. I was limited to quantity of information I could type in, and was not able to upload documents, they kept on timing out, or saying cant be done now. Thus there was only a small statement that i was allowed to submit. That same night I called XXXX up and asked what can I do about it, and they told me that I should mail the attachments in to them, ( the attachments that I wanted to upload but was not allowed to ). I mailed these documents, which I am attaching to this filing, but before they even received them, they denied my dispute. This denial was received on line. in addition i received two denials in the mail as I further objected. This is impacting my credit and both XXXX and IC Systems are at fault. Thank you for investigating this for me and I trust, having it corrected. On line XXXX dispute report : Report Created On : XX/XX/XXXX File Identification Number : XXXX Provided by XXXX Consumer Relations INVESTIGATION RESULTS - VERIFIED AS ACCURATE AND UPDATED : The disputed item ( s ) was verified as accurate ; however, other information has also changed.

I am giving authorization to this company to respond to this cfpb complaint before I proceed with litigation. As a federally protected consumer, this company has violated my consumer rights and has defamed my character by attempting to collect an alleged debt. They also have reported this information to consumer reporting agencies when I have never engaged in an agreement with this company, nor have I given them written, nonwritten, verbal, nonverbal consent to communicate with me both directly and indirectly pursuant to 12 CFR 1006.6 ( b ) ( 4 ) ( i ) and multiple federal laws pursuant to 15 U.S. Code Subchapter V - DEBT COLLECTION PRACTICES. Furthermore, they claim that they are attempting to collect a debt from a purchased contract which violates Uniform Commercial Code 3-203 which states that once a contract has been transferred, you cancel all rights to collect. I have a right to privacy pursuant to the privacy act of 1974, to be more specific 5 U.S.C 552a, and this company did not get my permission to use my social security number which has caused me monetary damages. I could not purchase a home, a new vehicle or further extend my credit as a result of this pursuit. The following are federal laws that have been violated in pursuit of this alleged obligation with a brief explanation on how it was violated. 12 CFR 1006.10 and 15 U.S. Code 1692b - Acquisition of location information. Stating that I owe a debt on consumer report ( s ) and using language that states that the communication relates to the collection of a debt 12 CFR 1006.6 and 15 U.S. Code 1692c - Communications in connection with debt collection. I have already stated the reason above 12 CFR 1006.14 and 15 U.S. Code 1692d - Harassing, oppressive, or abusive conduct. The use of obscene or profane language or language the natural consequence of which is to abuse the hearer or reader.

I am disputing a {$580.00} charge from XXXX who have been sending me a bill for a XXXX account I NEVER activated. I received a bill from the company every month for three months until it was sent to debt collections. Every month I received the bill I would call XXXX, the technician would confirm that I never activated the lines and that they would take care of closing the account and that no money was owed, only to receive another bill with a late charge the following month. Here is the complete story : I was interested in switching phone companies back in XXXX from XXXX to XXXX. I received " cards/chips '' from XXXX that were to be put into our cell phones when we were ready to activate then, I was clearly instructed not to cancel my current XXXX account until we activated the " cards/chips '' into the phones, but they did not send all the cards for the XXXX lines and when they told us to go to a XXXX store I said that wouldn't work because my elderly parents were out of state and I wouldn't be able to get them to a store, so I said forget it, I don't want to switch to XXXX, in which they said XXXX okay, we will keep this account open just in case you change your mind but you won't be charged anything ''. Sure enough, I received a bill the following month for {$300.00} for all the lines. When I called XXXX, they said " hmm, that's strange because we usually cancel with the other phone providers when you switch to us but since we can confirm you never activated these lines we will take care of this charge and close this balance ''. One month later, another bill with a late charge. I call again to both request to close whatever account is open and causing this problem and to see why the balance was not settled. Their response " hmm, let me put you on hold '' I wait on hold, the technician then says " yes I confirmed with our staff you did not activate these lines and I see notes here that there was an issue we were supposed to reach out to you but the technician didn't but I will take care of this and you will see a credit for {$250.00} because that's the max I can credit a month but don't worry the following month the rest of the balance will be paid I assure you ''. By XXXX, I get XXXX ( military ) only to come back a month later to a letter from a debt collector and XXXX will no longer take my calls. The debt collectors are now just essentially demanding {$580.00}. I called the debt collectors initially, they said they will only take a statement in the mail disputing the charge because I am from the state of XXXX, then they will reach out to XXXX and we should hear back within XXXX days. So I sent them a statement last week and called them today to confirm if they received my letter in the mail. The debt collectors responded with " yes and XXXX proved you owe the charge so how would you like to pay today? ". I challenged this, I said you told me last week it would take XXXX days how have they already received my letter in the mail from last week and responded? '' She then said " Oh you sent the letter last week? In that case we haven't received your letter yet but I am confused because XXXX already proved you owe the amount '' I then said " Is it just a bill? '' She said " Yes '' and I said " how does that prove anything they send me that bill every month? ". She told me to just wait and call back next week and she would speak to the XXXX. At this point I was now not trusting the debt collectors, and saw on the letter from the debt collectors that I could review the statement on their website. When I went to the website It would not let me view anything and said that they received my dispute, verified the charge and have sent it to the XXXX credit bureau. I was beyond furious obviously. I called the debt collectors back, spoke to someone else, who claimed there was a double dispute on the file and to call back next week. I am literally praying that all the phone recordings from XXXX and the debt collectors are available somehow. I don't understand how I owe XXXX money for an account they repeatedly verified every month that I called them that I did not owe. Thank you in advance for your time and support.

I am sure your legal staff will agree that non-compliance with this request could put your company in serious legal trouble with the FTC and other state or federal agencies. If your offices are able to provide the proper documentation as requested in the following declaration, I will require 30 days to investigate this information and during such time all collection activity must cease and desist. Also, during this validation period, if any action is taken which could be considered detrimental to any of my credit reports, I will consult with legal counsel for suit. This includes any listing of any information to a credit-reporting repository that could be inaccurate or invalidated. If your offices fail to respond to this validation request within 30 days from the date of your receipt, all references to this account must be deleted and completely removed from my credit file and a copy of such deletion request shall be sent to me immediately. It would be advisable that you and your client assure that your records are in order before I am forced to take legal action.

I had a wireless account with XXXX that I ended up shutting down. They charged me the back payments for it and account disconnection fees. They gave what I owed to a company they worked with, XXXX XXXX. I worked with XX/XX/XXXX and made a payment plan for a small amount a month ( as I could not afford more ) and made the payment every month for the last year or so and they agreed not to report it to my credit as a collections as long as I made that payment. Over the summer, XXXX gave my account to another company, I.C. System, without notifying me. I realized my payments were not being made to XX/XX/XXXX and called them to ask them if they still had my account. They said they did and to not worry. In XXXX I received a letter from I.C. System saying they had my XXXX account. I once again called XXXX. XXXX and they said that it was impossible for them to have my account as only one company could hold it at a time and that they still had it. They said to ignore the letter from I.C. System. I tried to call I.C. System anyway but couldn't get a hold of them. I noticed again that my payments were not coming out of my bank account for XXXX. XXXX in XXXX so I tried to call them. The number was no longer for them and when I went to find my account online it said the account didn't exist. I called I.C. System on XX/XX/XXXX of this year at XXXX. I spoke to an agent about my account and asked her what the minimum payment was that I could make monthly in exchange for them not reporting it on my credit as a collections. She told me I could make monthly payments of XXXX dollars and they would not report it on my credit as a collections. She set up the payment arrangement for me. The XXXX dollars was to come out every month on the XXXX. I paid it on XX/XX/XXXX and again on XX/XX/XXXX. On XX/XX/XXXX, the same day I made my second payment, I got an alert that a collections account had been reported to my XX/XX/XXXX credit report. It was the XXXX account reported by I.C. System. I called them on XX/XX/XXXX, when I saw the alert, and spoke to agent, XXXX XXXX, ID XXXX, and asked why my account was reported as a collections, which damaged my credit that I have been working hard to improve, and the agent tried to claim that I had agreed to pay XXXX dollars a month and that by paying XXXX I had broken the " contract ''. I told him I had agreed to XXXX and that they had wrongly reported a collections to my credit report and that they needed to remove it. I told them to pull the phone call from XX/XX/XXXX where that agreement was made between the agent and I. They said they would pull the call over the weekend and call me back on Monday. Today, Monday, the XXXX of XXXX, I called them around XXXX. The agent, XXXX XXXX, ID XXXX, told me they had pulled the call and heard that I was correct in my statement so they were going to have the collections account removed from my credit. Mysteriously, however, my payment arrangement had disappeared in their system and she wanted me to arrange a payment arrangement for {$380.00} a month instead. I told her I can not afford that and that they had already made an arrangement with me to accept a monthly payment of {$25.00} in exchange for not reporting it as a collections to my credit report. She then tried to say I could pay XXXX dollars for 3 months and then go up to {$380.00} or pay {$2000.00} when I get my tax refund, which is out of line and ridiculous. I told her they were being underhanded and trying to force me to pay more money than what they agreed I could pay. The collections account is still showing on my transunion credit report as well even though they said they had it removed. I would like them to honor the payment arrangement they made with me and to remove the collections account from my credit reports. The calls with the agents I've had on XX/XX/XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX, and today, XX/XX/XXXX can all be pulled and listened to as they are recorded to show that I am telling the truth about what has occurred.

I C SYSTEMS COLLECTIONS XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, MN XXXX ( XXXX ) XXXX # XXXX DISPUTE NOT SPECIFIC ; VERIFIED AND UPDATED I disputed this with XXXX XXXX and they said they would resolve it back in XX/XX/XXXX. They sent it to collections and I disputed it with a different collection company and they verified with XXXX XXXX it was resolved. Now the above company is reporting a XX/XX/XXXX date and has provided no proof it is my account except saying XXXX XXXX says so. XXXX XXXX has no proof it is my account. Also, now it says the account wont drop from my credit bureau until XX/XX/XXXX instead of XX/XX/XXXX. The original dispute started in XX/XX/XXXX. Could I please get a copy of the original XXXX XXXX file that shows I created this obligation? Could you have this removed from all my credit reports or at least reported correctly instead of the dates they purchased this from XXXX XXXX.

I would continue this through XXXX but the button they have listed on their website to do this does not exist.

Collection activities and communications that do not otherwise violate this subchapter may continue during the 30-day period referred to in subsection ( a ) of this section unless the consumer has notified the debt collector in writing that the debt, or any portion of the debt, is disputed or that the consumer requests the name and address of the original creditor.

XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, GA XXXX I.C. SYSTEM, INC XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, MN XXXX ( XXXX ) XXXX Collection accountS : {$820.00} Date : XX/XX/XXXX ; Re : Acct # XXXX To Whom It May Concern : I have previously sent you a request to validate my debt under the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act and all I received was an itemized list of the alleged charges you claim I owe you. This does not meet the Federal Trade Commissions guidelines of what constitutes proper debt validation In addition, in the case of Spears Vs. Brennan ( IN THE COURT OF APPEALS OF INDIANA, No. 49A02-0003-CV-169 ), the court ruled that : 15 U.S.C. 1692g ( b ) ( emphasis added ). On XX/XX/XXXX, nineteen days after the date of XXXX debt collection letter, XXXX counsel XXXX sent XXXX a letter declaring that XXXX disputes your debt collection-related allegations, denies the same, and demands strict proof and verification thereof. Record at 21. As such, XXXX should have ceased his debt collection efforts immediately upon receiving that letter. Instead, XXXX proceeded to obtain a default judgment against XXXX on the debt collection claim before he had mailed XXXX the necessary verification and, thus, violated 15 U.S.C. 1692g ( b ). XXXX maintains, however, that there was no violation of the FDCPA because he sent adequate verification of the debt [ to XXXX ] in the XX/XX/XXXX notice of claim. Brief of Appellee at 13. Specifically, XXXX claims that a copy of the consumer credit contract between XXXX and XXXX XXXX attached to the notice of claim provided sufficient verification of the debt within the meaning of 15 U.S.C. 1692g ( b ). We can not agree. The contract in no way provides sufficient verification of the debt. A review of the document reveals that it identifies only the terms of XXXX loan, including a 17.99 % annual interest rate and the original loan amount of {$2500.00}. The loan agreement contains no accounting of any payments made by XXXX, the dates on which those payments were made, the interest which had accrued, or any late fees which had been assessed once XXXX stopped making the required payments. Indeed, the existing unpaid contract balance at the time XXXX sent the debt collection notice was at least {$350.00} more than the original loan amount. Therefore, XXXX violated 15 U.S.C. 1692g ( b ) when he failed to cease collection of the debt by obtaining a default judgment against XXXX after XXXX had notified XXXX in writing that he was disputing the debt but before XXXX had mailed verification of the debt to XXXX. We reverse the trial courts entry of summary judgment in favor of XXXX on this issue. I notice that you are still reporting this collection on my credit report, which is considered to be a collection activity. You are now in violation of the FCPDA, and are now subject to fines of {$1000.00}, plus actual damages and attorneys fees, which I may collect from you by filing a claim in small claims court. These collections on my credit report are causing me severe problems in trying to purchase a home and the damage could lead into the $ 1000s. You should also be aware that reporting such invalidated information to major credit bureaus might constitute defamation of character, as the negative marks on my credit report harm my credit and prevent me from enjoying all the benefits of good credit. In addition, the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) does not allow the inaccurate reporting of information on my credit report and under this act. Therefore, if you do not immediately remove this account from my credit report, you are subject to another {$1000.00} fine, plus punitive damages. I'm sure your legal staff will agree that non-compliance with this request could put your company in serious legal trouble with the FTC and other state or federal agencies. I intend to follow through with the suit if I do not hear back from you within 15 days. I look forward to hearing from you, XXXX XXXX XXXX

On XX/XX/XXXX, I gave birth to my daughter, XXXX, in an in-network hospital in XXXX, MD. I have insurance through XXXX. On XX/XX/XXXX and XX/XX/XXXX, XXXX was briefly seen by the hospital pediatric nurse practitioner, XXXX XXXX of XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX ( My regular pediatrican did not have rights at that hospital so we had to use the hospital 's contracted pediatrician. ) On XXXX XXXX, XXXX, XXXX sent me a letter with their fully requested bill of {$1100.00} asking for assistance in getting my insurance to pay them. I forwarded this information to XXXX. On XXXX XXXX, XXXX, XXXX paid XXXX XXXX a total of {$590.00}, which represented their in-network, 'reasonable and customary ' rates for the pediatrician services. I received a XXXX and an Explanation of Benefits to this effect, clearly stating that " We have arranged discounted rates with this provider. Your provider should not bill you for [ the balance ], it is a discount you receive by being a member of this plan ; '' and that my financial responsibility was {$0.00}. On XXXX XXXX, XXXX, XXXX sent XXXX and copied me on a letter asking again to be paid for their full amount of {$1100.00}. On that same day, XXXX XXXX, XXXX, XXXX sent me a bill for the remaining {$580.00} with a statement that " your insurance carrier advises the balance is your responsibility, '' which was misleading and patently untrue. They also sent me a letter to notify me of their appeal to XXXX and noted that " regardless of the outcome of the appeal, you will need to pay your co-insurance and deductibles. '' For this particular service, that was {$0.00}. On XXXX XXXX, XXXX, XXXX sent XXXX a letter in response to their appeal, upholding their original decision to pay a total of {$590.00}, adhering to their reasonable and customary rates. I did not hear anything further from either XXXX or XXXX about the matter for some months and had considered it closed. On XX/XX/XXXX, I received a letter from IC System , Inc, whom XXXX had hired for bill collection. They attempted to collect the {$580.00} that XXXX still wanted ( despite it being above reasonable and customary rates for these services ) and notified me that i had 30 days to dispute the charge before they would contact credit bureaus. I had been out of town when the letter arrived, so upon receiving it, I sent a letter on XXXX XXXX, XXXX ( postmarked XX/XX/XXXX ) to IC System disputing the debt, explaining the circumstances, and attaching a copy of the Claim from XXXX showing that my responsibility was {$0.00}. I sent a copy to XXXX by mail as well as to XXXX, online. On XXXX XXXX, XXXX, in response to my correspondence, XXXX told me via secure email that they would re-review, yet again, the claim from XXXX XXXX. That is between XXXX and XXXX ( personally, the reasonable and customary rate payment already made on XXXX of {$590.00} seemed appropriate to me ; but that is between them ). XXXX also attempted to contact IC System on my behalf but were denied, with IC System saying they needed my permission. I called IC System on XXXX XXXX, XXXX and disputed the claim again via phone while I waited for the mail to arrive. I also gave IC System my permission for them to speak with XXXX. I believe IC System and XXXX spoke on or about XX/XX/XXXX but I do not know what was said. I called IC System again on XXXX XXXX, XXXX and asked for an update but they said they had not yet processed my letter ( sent one week prior ). This is where things stand today. In sum : I owe {$0.00} to XXXX and therefore {$0.00} to IC System. XXXX was incorrect to hire IC System to collect this amount in the first place and IC System was incorrect to pursue it. I additionally wish to note that I believe Maryland, where I reside and where the XXXX XXXX were provided, has outlawed balance billing for situations where there is an in-network facility and an out-of-network provider ( as happened in this situation ).

I owned a house at XXXX in XXXX, Louisiana from XX/XX/XXXX to XX/XX/XXXX. In about XX/XX/XXXX-XX/XX/XXXX, XXXX had begun offering new DSL internet service in that neighborhood. XXXX advertised a " deal '' to entice new customers which included DSL internet service for about {$20.00} per month for the first 6 months of service. The " deal '' required the customer to purchase a DSL router ( from XXXX for about {$200.00} ) and included a rebate of {$200.00}. I subscribed to this service and began receiving monthly bills for the service a short time later. Days later, I also sent the rebate request form with all required information to receive the rebate as had ben advertised and promised. Contrary to what I had been told previously by XXXX representatives , XXXX technicians determined that the wiring in my neighborhood ( as well as on my property and residence ) was inappropriate for the XXXX DSL internet service. An XXXX technician laid and buried seemingly hundreds of yards of cable to service my house. Laying this cable also required unearthing about XXXX yards of my lawn, for which the unanticipated onus of restoring the destroyed lawn became mine. The DSL internet service functioned for a minimal amount of time once appropriate wiring was installed. Thereafter, many phone conversations with XXXX technical support staff were incurred at my time and expense. These attempts at resolving the failure on the part of XXXX to provide internet service as they had agreed were fruitless. XXXX technicians made several trips to work in my neighborhood and inside my residence for the benefit and functionality of their communications infrastructure ; I was required to be present at my time and expense. The problem was not resolved, and XXXX failed to provide the service for which I had purchased. On one occasion, an XXXX technician even expressed his dismay to me and considered XXXX " stupid '' and " greedy '' for initiating an offer for the DSL internet service with neither proper infrastructure nor proper preparation and consideration for their technicians in my locale to provide these new services. Usable and functioning DSL internet service was unpredictable, but the likelihood was always great for prolonged outages lasting for days. All the while, XXXX continued to charge me for the service for which the company did not provide. As ( dependable ) internet access became a more important requirement for satisfying the requirements of my job, I subscribed to Cable Internet with XXXX. I called XXXX concurrently to cancel my subscription, but XXXX representatives resisted my request for cancellation ; threatened to charge a cancellation fee ; and fused to investigate the status or issue my rebate ; despite XXXX having not provided services as agreed upon. In a subsequent phone conversation with XXXX representatives in the following days, an XXXX representative " closed my account ''. Even after this encounter, I received an additional bill ( for an amount less than {$100.00} ). After another phone conversation with XXXX representatives, I was informed my service had been terminated and my account had been resolved and closed. These encounters came at my time and expense. At no time have I since received any correspondence, notification, or communication from XXXX ( or any debt collection agency on behalf of XXXX ) informing me of any debt, outstanding balance, or account in collections. This evening, while planning to buy a house and having always paid incurred bills on-time and in-full, I was shocked my XXXX credit report indicated a past due amount of {$230.00} listed from an original creditor " XXXX FORMERLY XXXX '' under an account named " I C SYSTEM INC '' opened on XX/XX/XXXX. This is an improper and/or fraudulent charge, whether through the incompetence of XXXX or through a willful disregard for the law and misuse of a financial product.

A. I have twice notified IC System ( " ICS '' ) in writing that I dispute the validity of the entire debt which ICS is attempting to collect from me. Both notifications were delivered to ICS within the 30-day window provided under XXXX XXXX XXXX ( a ). B. Accordingly, a debt collector ( " DC '' ) must cease collection of the debt, or any disputed portion thereof, until the DC obtains verification of the debt or any copy of a judgment, or the name and address of the original creditor, and a copy of such verification or judgment, or name and address of the original creditor, is mailed to the consumer by the DC. XXXX XXXX. XXXX ( b ). C. ICS has not ceased calling me after I informed them in writing that I dispute the entire debt. ICS has further failed to provide me with any verification or evidence of a debt owed by me, as required under XXXX XXXX XXXX ( b ). D. In XXXX letters to ICS, I provided indisputable evidence that this debt is invalid. Such evidence included a statement from the " creditor '' for whom XXXX claims to be collecting a debt, showing that my account does not have a negative balance ; to the contrary, " creditor '' owed me a credit. I also attached evidence that the " creditor '' credited my account on XXXX XXXX, 2016. E. In XXXX letters, I notified ICS that I refuse to pay ICS anything, as no such debt exists, and that ICS that it is required to cease further communication with me. Accordingly, ICS is required to do so pursuant to XXXX XXXX XXXX ( c ). F. By law, after such notification, ICS may only contact me for the following reasons : ( 1 ) to advise the me that ICS 's further efforts are being terminated ; ( 2 ) to notify the me that ICS may invoke specified remedies which are ordinarily invoked by such XXXX ; or ( 3 ) to notify the me that the ICS intends to invoke a specified remedy. G. ICS has continuously failed its statutory duties, as it has proceeded to call me 3-5 times/day for the past 3 weeks following receipt of my first letter. ICS has left no message, nor have they mailed me any notification, stating that their efforts to communicate me are for XXXX of the XXXX lawful purposes allowed under XXXX XXXX XXXX ( c ). For this reason, I presume that the calls are unlawful under XXXX XXXX. XXXX ( c ). H. As these calls do not fall within the XXXX categories enumerated above, these calls may be considered an attempt to harass, oppress, or abuse any person in connection with the collection of a debt, as defined under XXXX XXXX XXXX. Federal law prohibits a DC from causing a telephone to ring repeatedly or continuously with intent to annoy, abuse, or harass any person at the called number. XXXX XXXX. XXXX ( XXXX ). Federal law also prohibits a DC placement of telephone calls without meaningful disclosure of the caller 's identity. XXXX XXXX. XXXX ( XXXX ). I. In its letter to me regarding the debt, ICS threatened to report my information to credit reporting agencies ( " CRA '' ). Before reporting my information to a CRA, ICS must conduct a reasonable investigation of a direct dispute. XXXX XXXX XXXX ( a ). After receiving a dispute notice from me, ICS must conduct a reasonable investigation with respect to the disputed information ; review all relevant information provided by the consumer with the dispute notice ; complete its investigation of the dispute and report the results of the investigation to me before the expiration of the period. XXXX XXXX XXXX ( e ). In addition, if the completeness or accuracy of any information furnished by any person to any CRA is disputed to such person by a consumer, the person may not furnish the information to any CRA without notice that such information is disputed by the consumer. XXXX XXXX. J. In light of the evidence presented by me, I have reason to believe that ICS still reported my information to CRAs, and has yet to correct such misinformation.

Approximately a year ago I contacted XX/XX/XXXXXX/XX/XXXXto set up services. The worker could not deliver services, then I was transferred to multiple different departments and workers. The last worker I spoke with told me that they had to refuse services because I owed money to them from the last time I had services with them. The last time I had services with XX/XX/XXXX XX/XX/XXXX was approximately 3/4 years prior to this phone call that took place one year ago. I asked how much I owed and why I didnt receive any notices saying that I owed, and the worker responded that he couldnt tell me how much or any information because my account expired since it was so long ago and that he couldnt do anything to inform me because the company already submitted everything to collections. The worker transferred me to the collections agency ( this is not the same collections agency that is on my credit currently ). The guy I spoke with was a man who could barely speak XXXX, and said his name was XXXX. XXXX was extremely aggressive and pushy. I did not trust this source from the second he opened his mouth because of the way he spoke to me. He told me I had to pay within 20 minutes or the price would go up and he would make my credit score go down more and more every month. After asking him to help me further understand the situation he said all I can tell you is that you have 20 minutes to pay and the deal is if you pay with your checking account instead of a credit card, Ill take {$100.00} off the amount owed to collections. When he said that, I immediately got off the phone with this guy bc of how aggressive and fraudulent he sounded. I contacted my financial advisor and he advised me to let it go bc my credit score is good and I havent XXXX a single payment on anything. Up to the date of this event, I had not received a phone call, an email, or anything at all from XXXX XXXX saying I owed money. When I was in College and moved out from my rental with a roommate years ago, I specifically remember turning in all equipment and paying everything owed with my roommate and checking my account seeing a {$0.00} balance after all was said and done. I have not heard from XXXX XXXX or collections or any company at all. This whole incident competent blindsided me for 1. If someone owed me money, Id be emailing, calling, and doing everything possible to get the money. Yet, I was never notified or contacted AT ALL after informing XXXX XXXX of my move. 2. Why in the world would I have tried to get services with this company again if I had known what they did??? In conclusion, all of this was shocking and confusing to me. Remember, all of this happened about a year ago when I was made aware of this situation when I tried to call and get services. Here we are about a year later, and I just received an email yesterday from XXXX on XX/XX/2020 that i was turned into collections AGAIN. I check my credit report and file a dispute with XXXX, this is a whole new collections agency that I havent heard of and my credit score dropped 24 points because of this. Before my credit score was in the 750s Let me say again, still to this day I have NEVER missed a payment in anything in my entire XXXX years of life and I am so positive this is a complete fraud. A WHOLE YEAR AFTER MY PHONE CONVERSATION WITH THIS AGGRESSIVE XXXX, Im getting an entirely new collections submission. It makes no sense at all. They can not back up anything they claim with information or statements, I was never contacted by them at all, and I want this fraudulent hold on my credit lifted because I do not owe anything. I have done research and I have found that I am not the first person XXXX XXXX has done this to. I hope this situation can be solved and appreciate any help that I can receive to fully understand this matter and get to the bottom of it. Thank you for your time. - XXXX XXXX

UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURTFOR THE DISTRICT OF CONNECTICUTDocket No : XXXXMORANDUM OF LAWXX/XX/2015PLAINTIFFS OBJECTION AND MEMORANDUM OF LAW TODEFENDANTS " SECOND '' MEMORANDUM OF LAW IN SUPPORTOF DEFENDANTS MOTION FOR JUDGMENT ON THE PLEADINGSXXXX XXXX ( " Plaintiff '' ), objects to defendants second memorandum of law on motion for judgment on the pleadings ( the " Motion '' ) filed by Defendant I.C. System, Inc., ( " Defendant '' ) as follows : ORAL HEARING NOT REQUESTEDPRELIMINARY STATEMENTPlaintiff XXXX XXXX ( " Plaintiff '' ), objects and respectfully submits this memorandum of law in reply to defendants improper second memorandum of law in support of defendants motion for judgment on the pleadings which attempts to erroneously claim plaintiffs failure to state a cause of action which relief may be granted pursuant to Federal Rules of Civil Procedure ( " FRCP '' ) 12 ( c ) and 12 ( h ) ( 2 ). XXXX XXXX, Plaintiff, v. I.C. SYSTEM, INC., Defendant. 2Plaintiffs " Objection '' ( " Objection '' ) to defendants motion for judgment on the pleadings accurately applies to the defendants injurious acts and assaults upon plaintiff. Defendant called the plaintiff no less than 29 times in 30 days violating the statues under which plaintiff has brought his claims. Plaintiff successfully undercuts defendants, I.C. System, Inc. ( " defendant '' ). Defendant attempts to squirm out of accountability by claiming they never violated the TELEPHONE CONSUMER PROTECTION ACT ( " TCPA '' ) or CONNECTICUT PUBLIC ACT 14-53, codified C.G.S.A. 42-288a ( " CPA 14-53 '' ), " AN ACT PROHIBITING UNSOLICITED COMMERCIAL TEXT MESSAGES AND INCREASING PENALTIES FOR VIOLATIONS OF THE DO NOT CALL REGISTRY ''. Plaintiff justifiably seeks the Connecticut " statutory '' relief of {$20000.00} per call ( {$580000.00} ) plus the Federal " statutory '' relief of three times {$500.00} per call ( {$43000.00} ) for a total of {$620000.00} as stated in his original complaint regardless of whether he cross-motioned or not. Plaintiff objects to defendants motion for judgment on the pleadings and plaintiff objects to defendants inappropriate multiple memorandums of law ( which allegedly violates the judges local rule which states : " Sur-reply Briefs - Judge XXXX discourages the filing of sur-reply briefs and allows them only as necessary to address a significant issue or legal authority that has been raised by the opposing party for the first time in its reply brief. ) Defendant rejects this rule by filing again on the same issues. Defendant also violated local rules by filing the second memorandum of law after the five day due date required. Defendants motion for judgment on the pleadings should specifically be denied and plaintiffs complaint ruled upon in plaintiffs favor awarding plaintiff with {$620000.00} in statutory fines and court costs. 3STATEMENT OF FACTSDefendant called the plaintiff 29 times in 30 days against the plaintiffs wishes. EXHIBIT A shows absolute proof of evidence of each call made by the defendant, even after plaintiff told the defendant to stop ( a violation of .G.S.A. 42-228a ( 11 ) ( c ) ). Defendant is the defendant in over XXXX lawsuits filed for similar complaints as seen in EXHIBIT B. Defendant then claims that " in the interest of judicial economy '' defendants statement of facts is already asserted in XXXX XXXX ; yet defendant goes on for XXXX pages rehashing statutory arguments again ; not to mention the unnecessary attorney affidavit defendant filed which local rules discourage. Plaintiff would argue that there is not much room for the Court to maneuver when a statutory penalty is involved. If they did it they have to pay. The Court does n't decide the penalty because the statute has already decided it for the Court via the Legislature. ARGUMENTPOINT ISTANDARDS OF REVIEWDefendant has excessively called XXXX of XXXX District

I called XXXX XXXX XXXX to disconnect and cancel service for my DSL account in XX/XX/XXXX. I was not able to reach that dept via the automated system and after several days of failed attempts I went to the XXXX XXXX store at XXXX in XXXX XXXX TX. They were able to connect me to DSL customer service ; I was told by the rep that due to my troubles of trying to get through and constantly getting the wrong department within XXXX XXXX XXXX on their customer service line that my service would be backdated with a cancellation date of XX/XX/XXXX. Representative informed me I would receive a bill in XXXX. Advised that I did not owe that amount but due to their billing cycles the bill would still be generated so if I paid the bill I would be sent a check in the mail once the account was rectified. Just to be safe I paid the bill. However, that cancellation was not put through correctly by the representative. I did not notice there was an issue until XXXX. I called again and there was never a cancellation put through. They finally were able to effectively cancel the account in XXXX. I received a final bill in XXXX for {$120.00}. Those charges were incurred after my initial attempt to cancel and close the account in XXXX and are unauthorized/erroneous charges. I have been fighting with the company ever since to have that amount adjusted. I have been told numerous times they are crediting my account. After several months of this communication and nothing being resolved I started to worry they would send to 3rd party collections. I called again and XXXX XXXX XXXX placed an accounting hold on the account while it was taken care of. Then I started receiving letters from collections. One from IC Systems- whom i called immediately and filed a dispute. I have exhausted all avenues at this point and every time I call XXXX they say they will credit the account, but every month i receive the same past due bill. IC Systems will not do anything on my behalf ; all direction has to come from XXXX and XXXX has told me they will not contact IC Systems to recall the account from collections because the account has been credited. However, I am applying for a home loan and do not qualify for the best rate due to the collections debt from IC Systems on my report. I went to an XXXX XXXX XXXX branch today after being hung up on twice in the automated customer service phone line ; and was disconnected and hung up on in the branch with their rep as well. I have 2 letters ( via email ) from XXXX XXXX XXXX dated XX/XX/XXXX stating " Thank you for your recent call to XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX. This is a confirmation that as of today XXXX of XX/XX/XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX adjusted the bill with account number ****** under Mr. XXXX for a total amount of {$120.00}. If we can be of further assistance, please do not hesitate to call us on XXXX. We at XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX value your business and look forward to speaking with you again. Sincerely XXXX, Service Representative XXXX XXXX '' I have another letter dated XX/XX/XXXX stating " This is to confirm that we have adjusted {$120.00} from your XXXX XXXX XXXX bill. This adjustment will reflect on your XXXX bill. We apologize for any inconvenience this may have caused you. If we can be of further assistance, please do not hesitate to call us on XXXX. We at XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX value your business and look forward to speaking with you again. Sincerely XXXX, Sales Manager ATT Consumer Services '' I have no more avenues to explore to get this situation resolved. I am applying for a home mortgage to move my family for my husbands job relocation and am not able to qualify for the best rate due to this issue on my credit ; this one and only issue on my credit. Please help. I can reference additional employee numbers of whom I have spoken with during this 14 month battle to have this removed.

We were clients of a XXXX hard line telephone service for ( 40 years ) and Internet service providers for over 12+ years. We no longer wanted a hard line phone as we did n't use it, it was a total annoyance, and my wife and I both had mobile phones. I got in touch with XXXX and explained to them my desire to discontinue our telephone service. ( I 've had this telephone for over 40 years. ) XXXX said that they could remove the phone line but they would only credit our monthly service bill for only {$4.00}. Our bills indicated that XXXX was charging us {$30.00} per month for just the telephone service. Due to length of time we were clients, we were no longer under any kind of service contract with them. We decided that XXXX was only interested in bilking us for service we no longer wanted or needed. They were also providing us with a very slow internet speed, a service they no longer, in fact, provided to new clients because, " It was too slow ''. My wife and I decided that it was time to leave XXXX because we no longer felt they were being ethical or reasonable in their business dealings with us. We found another XXXX who would provide excellent service, at a charge far less than XXXX, and treat us with respect and honesty. We ceased using XXXX services on XX/XX/2017. I called XXXX to discontinue service with them and return their modem, which I did immediately. At the very end of my conversation with the service representative to close our account he told me that XXXX would charge us {$150.00}. for a disconnection fee. I have been with the company for over 12+ years, we did not have a current service contract with XXXX , nor any written or verbal agreement that there would be any disconnection fees applied to us whatsoever. I asked XXXX to provide proof of this " contract ''. They never provided proof of a contract as they promised to do. Is this their way of conducting business with long-term clients? XXXX followed up by only sending us a non-itemized bill in an attempt to bury this fraudulent charge inside our final bill, without ever providing us with any proof of our responsibility for such a contract charge. They are not being ethical in dealing with us. They have not sent the proof we requested, but instead have turned the matter over to a collection agency. We absolutely dispute that after over 12 years service we were still under a " contract ''. This is a false claim on their part. Plus they are not furnishing us with a bill that itemizes and dates all charges. I find this a rather unsavory way to conduct business, especially with a long-term client. Yesterday, we received a letter from a collection agency working for XXXX without any itemization or explanation of charges. Just a final bill amount, without any documentation, nor " proof '' of a " contract '' which XXXX claims we had, but will not show us. How can we know what we are being charged for? We were also informed by a XXXX telephone agent over 6 months ago that we were " no longer under any contract with them currently ''. How do we go about having this {$150.00}. unsubstantiated charge for disconnection by XXXX dismissed? XXXX refuses to deal with this matter in a civilized way. They are demanding payment for something that they have not provided evidence of. This is unprofessional and arrogant on their part. We have always dealt with them in an ethical manner, they are not responding in kind. In my research on XXXX on the web I 've noticed that XXXX has a multitude of lawsuits against them for their poor business practices all over the USA. It appears as though I am not alone in my complaint against them for unprincipled business practices. They appear to be too big and powerful, that they feel the law does not apply to them. We need more choice, not more mergers! Competition will provide for better service. A

I am writing to request that you immediately cease reporting any information to the credit bureaus regarding the alleged debt you claim I owe until you have fully verified the debt in accordance with the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act ( FDCPA ). In addition to the above, I urge you to provide me with the original contract bearing my signature and that of the original creditor, as well as the bill of assignment. As per FDCPA, you are required to provide this validation of debt within 30 days of receiving my written request. I believe that you, as well as ORIGINAL CREDITOR, whom I originally entered the contract with, are violating 1692g by submitting incomplete information again to my credit report. This is a severe violation of THE FALSE CLAIM ACT, and I urge you to correct this immediately. Moreover, I would like to bring to your notice that XXXX did not adhere to the law of 15 U.S.C 1681 s-2 ( a ) ( 1 ) ( F ), which includes an agreement to defer one or more payments, make a partial payment, forbear any delinquent amounts, modify a loan or contract, or any other assistance or relief granted to a consumer who is affected by the coronavirus XXXX XXXX ( XXXX ) pandemic during the covered period, which began on XX/XX/XXXX, and ended on the later of 120 days after XX/XX/XXXX, or after the date on which the national emergency concerning the novel coronavirus XXXX ( XXXX ) outbreak declared by the President on XX/XX/XXXX, under the National Emergencies Act ( 50 U.S.C. 1601 et seq. ) terminated. Please ensure that any accommodations granted are reflected in the original contract or bill of assignment. Furthermore, I demand that you provide me with evidence of the license to collect in Tennessee, if any insurance has been filed on this debt by the original creditor, and if a 1099-C has been filed. Finally, I urge you to provide errors and omissions insurance. I hope that you will be able to supply all the required information promptly. If you fail to comply with any of the above requests, I will consider taking legal action. reporting company 's investigation into an existing problem I hope this letter finds you well. I am writing to bring to your attention some inaccuracies in the information reported by your credit bureau, specifically regarding my accounts with XXXX, XXXX, and XXXX. As per my records, The date opened wrong, date last active, payment history, and date last reported are inaccurate across all three bureaus. It is crucial to report the most up-to-date and accurate information to ensure the integrity of my credit profile. Moreover, I would like to bring to your attention that the reported payment history is reflecting a charge-off status for each month. However, this is inaccurate as these accounts are collection accounts, not charge-offs. As per the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) guidelines, it is essential that the information reported on my credit report is correct and reflects the accurate status of the accounts. I want to emphasize that a collection account balance can not be reported as {$0.00}. I kindly request that you rectify these inaccuracies and report the correct information in a timely manner. I urge you to adhere to the guidelines outlined in the 15 U.S. Code 1681s2, which states that furnishers of information to consumer reporting agencies must provide accurate information and refrain from reporting inaccurate information. To facilitate your investigation, I am enclosing a copy of my credit report from your credit bureau. It highlights the discrepancies mentioned above and includes your company 's information showing the inaccuracies. I trust that this will assist you in rectifying the errors promptly. It is essential to rectify these inaccuracies, as they may give the impression of fraudulent activities to lenders when they view my credit profile.

XX/XX/XXXX Consumer Financial Protection Bureau I am being pursued by the XXXX Credit and Collections Office for a billing error from some time ago. This has been discussed and settled with XXXX Customer Service personnel several times. XXXX seems to be unwilling or unable to deal with this matter effectively ; now it has been turned over to debt collection agencies. This matter has gone on for so long without results, despite repeated attempts to deal with XXXX, that more effective action is required. The history is as follows : 1. We terminated service on XXXX account number XXXX XXXX XXXX for telephone and internet service in XXXX XXXX CA on XXXX XXXX, XXXX. An automatic bank payment arrangement was cancelled on XXXX XXXX. Both cancellations were confirmed in a telephone call with a XXXX XXXX of XXXX on XXXX XXXX. We opened a new XXXX ( telephone and internet ) service on XXXX XXXX in XXXX XXXX CA. 2. On XXXX XXXX I received a bill for {$130.00} which included billing for another month of the XXXX XXXX service which had been terminated. In a telephone conversation with " XXXX '' of the XXXX Customer Service dept. we were told the charges will be removed, it was caused by a " system glitch ''. 3. On XXXX XXXX I received a bill for {$120.00} which again included billing for the terminated XXXX XXXX service. Another telephone conversation with " XXXX '' : " do n't pay, a corrected bill will be sent. '' 4. In a new bill, dated XXXX XXXX I was again told I owed {$100.00} for the terminated service. Another telcon with a XXXX XXXX of XXXX on XXXX XXXX : " All charges are removed, your balance is XXXX, a final bill will be sent by mail. '' 5. A letter dated XXXX XXXX XXXX from XXXX Credit and Collections ( re account XXXX XXXX XXXX, as above ) states : " We recently sent you ... Failure to pay the outstanding balance on your bill by XXXX XXXX XXXX may cause your account to be referred to an outside collection agency. This could result in reporting your debt to the credit bureaus which may affect your credit standing. " Please pay, etc. 6. A letter, dated XXXX XXXX XXXX, from debt collector XXXX XXXX, XXXX informing me that the bill for {$100.00} had been referred to this collection agency. Please pay, etc. 7. A XXXX on XXXX XXXX with a XXXX XXXX XXXX of XXXX Customer Service : " The balance is XXXX ; ... with the next bill - XXXX - this will show. Do not worry about the debt collector, he will be informed by XXXX. '' 8. A telcon on XXXX XXXX with a XXXX XXXX XXXX at XXXX XXXX : " They will notify XXXX that the debt had been disputed, no further action needed on your part. '' 8. A letter dated XXXX XXXX XXXX from XXXX XXXX collection agency, states : " The account information is scheduled to be reported to the national credit reporting agencies in your creditor 's name ( listing XXXX XXXX ) if you fail to fulfill your credit obligations. '' Amount due : {$100.00} ; on XXXX XXXX Account no. XXXX ( sic ; note the difference from the no. in item 1. ) It is not credible that XXXX Credit and Collections Office is simply not aware of these cases, there must be many of them. It appears to be a practice of theirs to ignore the customer service inputs, and keep pursuing these settled cases in the expectation that they will eventually just give up and pay anyway, to avoid the nuisance and the repeated threats, and particularly to avoid a credit record problem. There seems to be no deterrent to them for such practice. These repeated attempts to bring threats by debt collection agencies, long after the original issue has been resolved, in fact amounts to a form of harassment and intimidation, and may even amount legally to a form of extortion. It needs to be dealt more effectively than simply by more letters or emails. The CPFB needs to get involved. XXXX XXXX.

On or about XX/XX/XXXX/XX/XX/XXXX we canceled our account with XXXX XXXX XXXX. I had signed a Monthly Service Plan that had a monthly term agreement and per page XXXX of our agreement stated : " no early termination fees are due if the agreement is terminated for services purchased on a month-to-month term. '' In XX/XX/XXXX I received a letter dated XX/XX/XXXX that our services were disconnected with a final balance of {$96.00} which may include equipment charges. When I called to let XXXX know I purchased all the equipment, they stated that the balance was for a termination fee. I stated that I did not have a termination fee on my contract and the representative let me know that the charges would be taken off. In XX/XX/XXXX, I received a letter dated XX/XX/XXXX, that stated we owed a balance of {$96.00} and that our account would be turned over to a third-party collection agency if we did not take immediate action. I called the XXXX XXXX Collection Department on XX/XX/XXXX and spoke for 25 minutes a representative named XXXX who stated that I owed the amount for an " early termination fee for canceling before XX/XX/XXXX. If had canceled after that month I would not have paid the fee. '' I let her know that I had a contract that stated that I would not have to pay the fee. She agreed to send me their electronic copy of the contract and that I could call back the following day. On XX/XX/XXXX at about XXXX I had multiple conversations with the collections and billing departments. Although I had a copy of the agreement that was sent by the previous representative on XX/XX/XXXX that stated I did not have to pay a fee, the billing supervisor ( ( I believe the name was XXXX ) stated that " it does n't matter what the contract says, you must pay a termination fee. '' When I asked if he had a copy of the contract to look at, he said no and that they were not given access to see it. When I asked him if I could send the contract to him as it was sent to me by the XXXX representative, he said there was no place to send it and restated " it does n't matter if you have one or who sent it from XXXX, I am required to collect the amount. '' After about an hour our phone line was disconnected. I believe it was on XX/XX/XXXX, that I called again and was routed to a phone number for the legal department. The number was not working, so I called again and after numerous calls again with billing and collections, I was routed to the Loyalty Department. After a conversation with the representative ( a woman ), she stated that she would be able to waive the termination fee within 3-5 business days. She also stated that " we do n't have to let billing know '' and gave me a ticket for reference # XXXX In XX/XX/XXXX I received a letter from IC System ( debt collector ) XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, MN for the collection of {$96.00}. I described the situation to the collector representative and they stated that I could pay off an amount of {$67.00}. I refused the payoff amount as this should not have gone to a collection based on the contract I signed with XXXX as well as the final resolution of XXXX Loyalty department. The representative stated she did not have a contact at XXXX to verify and that I could send the details to the collection agency. I sent a description of the events, along with a copy of the contract in XX/XX/XXXX. My XXXX credit alert monitor has not notified me that my account has now been picked up by yet another collection agency. XXXX XXXX XXXX Address XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, FL XXXX At this point, it appears that I will have to discuss the situation again, and likely have the account continuing to bounce from one agency to another until I yield on a bill I should never had been charged for or hopefully have the CFPB step in to help.

I checked my three credit reports and found an assumed collection account from I.C. SYSTEM, INC with different opening dates, balances, and/or last date of activities for this same exact account number. I have never had an account with this company nor received any type of first notice of debt including rights to dispute from this company. XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX. Validation of debts ( a ) Notice of debt ; contents states that within five days after the initial communication with a consumer in connection with the collection of any debt, a debt collector shall, unless the following information is contained in the initial communication or the consumer has paid the debt, send the consumer a written notice containing ( 3 ) a statement that unless the consumer, within thirty days after receipt of the notice, disputes the validity of the debt, or any portion thereof, the debt will be assumed to be valid by the debt collector. XXXX XXXX XXXX definition of the word receipt is- a writing acknowledging the receiving of goods or money ; proof, evidence. I never signed nor received any type of acknowledgement receipt from a mailing service for any mail from this company. I am familiar with the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act ( FDCPA ). Had I signed a receipt of notice for the proper and legal documentation from this company, I wouldve immediately responded asking for lawful verification of debt or copy of court ordered judgement well within the lawful 30 days allotted. After receiving my response letter with receipt, this company would have to legally cease from collection attempts and remove the account from my credit reports until their proof of verification is sent back to me. This company has reported to my credit reports without observing the FDCPA laws. My credit has been impacted adversely because of this companys irresponsibility. My credit reports also show that I.C. SYSTEM, INC has provided this alleged account with inaccurate information. The FCRA requires that all data reported from the credit reporting agencies, creditors, or furnishers on a consumer 's report be 100 % ACCURATE, 100 % VERIFIABLE, and 100 % TIMELY. This means no data can be reported that can't be legally PROVEN to be 100 % accurate. My XXXX, XXXX, and XXXX credit reports all show different open dates, balances, and/or last date of activities for this same exact account. This is erroneous and flawed reporting that is listed on my credit reports. Not only did this company not follow lawful FDCPA communications protocol, but it has also broken FDCPA False or Misleading Representations protocol as well. A debt collector, in collecting a debt, may not use any false, deceptive, or misleading representation. Specifically, a debt collector may not falsely represent the character, amount, or legal status of the debt, or of any services rendered, or compensation he or she may receive for collecting the debt. A debt collector may not communicate, or threaten to communicate, false credit information or information that should be known to be false, including not identifying disputed debts as such. Each of my 3 credit reports show different information instead of them all showing the exact same information. This is considered a false and misleading representation that this company has submitted to the credit reporting agencies. Please remove this account from my credit reports immediately. It is not my duty to provide evidence that this alleged debt is not mine. It is the obligation of the debt collector to provide evidence that they can lawfully collect on any alleged debt, accurately report to the credit agencies, and follow all FCRA and FDCPA laws. As of today, they have been unsuccessful. XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX

XXXX XXXX ; XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, PA XXXX ( NOTICE OF DISPUTE OF DEBT and REQUEST FOR DEBT VALIDATION ) I C SYSTEM INC XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, MN XXXX Dear Sir or Madam : Your office has contacted me about a debt you claim I owe but which I have no knowledge of, nor did I consent to opening this account. My identity was stolen after my wallet was stolen with my social security card and drivers license. The purpose of this letter is to dispute this debt, which I do not believe I owe, and to request that you validate it by providing the documentation and information requested below. This is not a refusal to pay, but a lawful notice sent pursuant to the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act, 15 USC 1692g Section 809 ( b ) that your claim is disputed, and validation is requested. Pursuant to Section 809 ( b ) of the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act : If the consumer notifies the debt collector in writing within the 30-day period described in subsection ( a ) that the debt, or any portion thereof, is disputed, or that the consumer requests the name and address of the original creditor, the debt collector shall cease collection of the debt, or any disputed portion thereof, until the debt collector obtains verification of the debt or any copy of a judgment, or the name and address of the original creditor, and a copy of such verification or judgment, or name and address of the original creditor, is mailed to the consumer by the debt collector. Accordingly, please provide me with the following : 1. A detailed accounting of what the money you say I owe is for ; 2. A detailed explanation of how you calculated the amount you say I owe ; 3. Copies of any documents with my wet ink signature, that prove without a doubt I agreed to pay what you say I owe ; 4. Identify the original creditor, the original date of the account and provide their current contact information ; 5. Proof that the Statute of Limitations has not expired on this account ; 6. Documentation showing that you have the legal right to collect this debt ; 7. Documentation showing that you are licensed to collect in my state ; and 8. Provide me with the contact information for your Registered Agent for Service of Process I am fully aware of my rights under the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act and the Fair Credit Reporting Act and I know that because I have disputed this debt in writing within 30 days of the date of your bill, you must obtain verification of the debt against me and mail these items to me at your expense. Additionally, you can not add interest or fees except those allowed by the original contract or state law. While you are not required to respond to this dispute, any attempt to collect this debt without validating it violates the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act. Also, be advised that I am keeping very accurate records of all correspondence from you and your company, and I will not hesitate to report violations of the law to my State Attorney General, the Federal Trade Commission and the Better Business Bureau. I have disputed this debt ; therefore, until validated, you know your information concerning this debt is inaccurate. Therefore, if you have already reported this debt to any credit-reporting agency, such as XXXX, XXXX or XXXX, then you must immediately inform them of my dispute with this debt. Furthermore, reporting information that you know to be inaccurate or failing to report information correctly violates the Fair Credit Reporting Act. If your offices have reported invalidated information to any credit reporting agency, said action might constitute fraud under both Federal and State Laws. Thank you for your cooperation, XXXX XXXX ; XXXX All rights reserved

I.C. SYSTEM, INC violated 15 usc 1681a ( 2 ) ( B ), 15 U.S. Code 1681b ( a ) ( 2 ), 15 U.S. Code 1681 ( A ) ( 2 ), and 15 usc 1692j ( a ). Pursuant to 15 usc 1681a ( 2 ) ( B ) any authorization or approval of a specific extension of credit directly or indirectly by the issuer of a credit card or similar device should be excluded from a consumer report. The definition of a credit card under 15 usc 1681is the same as it is under 15 usc 1602 ( l ) which is the term credit card means by any card, plate, coupon book or other credit device existing for the purpose of obtaining, money, property, labor, or services on credit Notice, congress said ANY card. The credit card is my social security card. This is the credit card I used to originate the consumer credit transaction I am complaining about. Under 15 U.S. Code 1681b - Permissible purposes of consumer reports ( a ) IN GENERAL Subject to subsection ( c ) any consumer reporting agency may furnish a consumer report under the following circumstances and no other : ( 2 ) in accordance with the written instructions of the consumer to whom it relates. Pursuant to 15 USC 1692a ( 3 ) The term consumer means any natural person obligated or allegedly obligated to pay any debt. Wouldnt I be considered allegedly obligated to pay the debt listed below? I XXXX XXXX XXXX the consumer never gave I.C. SYSTEM, INC any written consent to report anything on my consumer report. No consent is Identity Theft. Pursuant to 15 U.S. Code 1681 ( A ) ( 2 ) An elaborate mechanism has been developed for investigating and evaluating the credit worthiness, credit standing, credit capacity, character, and general reputation of consumers.. This law is stating that our consumer reports are our reputation. Under 15 U.S. Code 1681b ( c ) any consumer reporting agency may furnish a consumer report under the following circumstances and no other : ( 2 ) in accordance with the written instructions of the consumer to whom it relates. I XXXX XXXX XXXX never gave I.C. SYSTEM, INC any written consent to report anything on my consumer report. No consent is Identity Theft. You reporting something on my report without my consent is negatively impacting my reputation. This is a violation to my rights. Also, the debt listed below is a bad debt, so it is definitely hurting my reputation. Pursuant to 15 usc 1692j ( a ) It is unlawful to design, compile, and furnish any form knowing that such form would be used to create the false belief in a consumer that a person other than the creditor of such consumer is participating in the collection of or in an attempt to collect a debt such consumer allegedly owes such creditor, when in fact such person is not so participating.. Who is the original creditor? I am, How? When I am given credit I am really receiving something that already belongs to me. Let me explain : my social security card is owned by the XXXX, so legally all my debts are the U.S debts. Now, let me get back to explaining how I am the original creditor. The definition of a credit card under 15 usc 1681is the same as it is under 15 usc 1602 ( l ) which is the term credit card means by any card, plate, coupon book or other credit device existing for the purpose of obtaining, money, property, labor, or services on credit Notice, congress said ANY card. The credit card is my social security card. This is the credit card I used to originate the consumer credit transaction below. Also, banks cant loan money, it is illegal for banks to loan money. This is why the FDCPA 15 USC 1692 never uses the term borrower. You see how I am the original creditor now? I.C. SYSTEM, INC is showing on my consumer report as the original consumer and this is furnished deceptively.

****NOT A DUPLICATE**** Previously submitted complaint XXXX on XX/XX/XXXX via CFPB website! Company failed to respond directly to CFPB and closed out the complaint on XX/XX/XXXX. Company needs to respond directly to the complaint via CFPB portal! In the previous complaint, as well as this one, I advised that I give permission for the company to submit any information to the CFPB. This company continues to violate my rights under FCRA guidelines! The company claimed to have sent their response directly to me because they couldn't verify that it was me who submitted the complaint against them, but they also never verified it was me before reporting and adding negative derogatory information to my credit report! They've never sent anything else to me before now! Never contacted me before now! I will continue to submit complaints until they respond with an answer on the CFPB website and submit a letter on company letterhead advising that they have deleted all negative information being reporting illegally. Who else would be filing a complaint against them for fraudulently reporting information on MY credit? They're using this as a stall tactic to gather more information about me in an effort to harass me or fraudulently use my personal information!! I don't want to be contacted by ANY OTHER means EXCEPT this portal! ****READ THE FOLLOWING ENTIRELY**** I received an alert from the credit bureaus that this collection account was added to my credit report on XX/XX/XXXX. When I logged into my credit monitoring service the information listed reflects that the collection agency I C System, located at XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX MN, XXXX. Phone XXXX states that the partial account number XXXX was opened with them on XX/XX/XXXX in the amount of {$530.00} and that the original debtor is XXXX XXXX. I have never heard of this debt collector prior today. I have not been contacted or notified of any debt that has been listed with this company. They sent me no correspondence advising that they own the debt, who the creditor was nor advised of my option to dispute the debt. I called the company 4 times today ... ( Calls were recorded on my end )! To find out more information and to dispute the account. I was transferred to various departments, no information was given. They attempted to fraudulently ask other questions not pertaining to the debt like if I'd moved in the last 12 months, what my previous phone numbers were, if I'd used any other name variations besides my actual name, if I've ever married or divorced, if I've ever used any aliases and other unprofessional questions rather than just to advise me what the debt was for. I felt insulted, violated and harassed. I felt as though the company was a fraud! Illegally trying to get my personal information to scam me. ****THE FAIR DEBT COLLECTION PRACTICES ACT STATES THAT A DEBT COLLECTOR MUST SEND THE CONSUMER A WRITTEN NOTICE CONTAINING THE AMOUNT OF THE DEBT, NAME OF CREDITOR AND A STATEMENT STATING THAT THE CONSUMER HAS 30 DAYS TO DISPUTE THE VALIDITY OF THE DEBT OR THE DEBT WILL BE CONSIDERED VALID BY THE DEBT COLLECTOR. IF THE CONSUMER FAILS TO DISPUTE THE DEBT WITHIN THAT 30 DAY TIME PERIOD DOES NOT GIVE ADMISSION OF LIABILITY! IF THE AGENCY DOES NOT FOLLOW THIS PROCESS THEN THEY HAVE NO RIGHTS OR GROUNDS TO COLLECT OR REPORT THE DEBT TO ANY CREDIT BUREAUS AND MUST IMMEDIATELY REMOVE THE DEBT DEBT FROM THE CONSUMERS CREDIT REPORT! XXXX The company didn't contact me within 30 days of assuming the debt and has therefore violated my rights so this needs to be removed from all 3 credit bureaus! I do NOT give the company permission to contact me via telephone, an employer, email or any other means except by US Mail.

I was in a car accident in XX/XX/XXXX, eventually I needed XXXX and that took place on XX/XX/XXXX at XXXX XXXX Hospital ( managed and billed through XXXX XXXX ). I had hired an attorney to help manage the accident claim ( as it was not my fault ). During this process, my attorney and his office worked on a settlement with the at fault parties insurance in order to get the medical bills paid. I had made arrangements with many providers, as had my attorney made contact with providers. In XX/XX/XXXX, I was contacted by I.C. Systems at the request of XXXX XXXX for a collection effort. However, this collection effort was invalid as arrangements were in place. At the time, I had asked XXXX XXXX to pull the account from collection as they would be getting a check from my attorneys office to pay a balance due with them ( in addition to the payment plan I was already on ). They pulled the account from I.C. Systems In XX/XX/XXXX. In XX/XX/XXXX my attorneys office sent a check to XXXX XXXX for the billed amount of {$1500.00} for the XXXX at XXXX XXXX Hospital dated XX/XX/XXXX. XXXX XXXX was aware this check was coming to pay the balance. XXXX XXXX got the check, however returned it to my attorneys off. Now fast forward to XX/XX/XXXX, I get a letter in the mail saying that I.C. Systems was going to be collecting on the account for the XX/XX/XXXX XXXX and this could negatively impact my credit. To no fault of my own, nor my attorney - XXXX XXXX rejected the check sent to them in XXXX to pay the bill. They then sent my account to collections - which they were not permitted to do as they had payment arrangements that they rejected. I am in the process of purchasing a home and any negative activity on my credit ( which currently my credit is great ) could impact that process and cost me financially in the short and long term, if not compromise my home purchase all together. This is unacceptable that they would send my account to a collections agency knowing they were getting a check, then reject the check and mail it back to my attorney ( who finally got the check back in XX/XX/XXXX ). I attempted to call and work this out with XXXX XXXX - they were disinterested in helping pull the account from collection even though they were at fault for the rejected check. I informed them I would file a complaint with the CFPB and told them I would be informing my attorneys office of their decision. I also contacted I.C. Systems and informed them of this information as well. I have contact my attorneys office, they are aware of this situation. I am considering legal action, as this should be a violation of the FDCPA and all parties who are in the process of collecting are in violation. Any impact this could have on my credit will not be acceptable, any delays in their further responses will not be acceptable. Any problems this may causes me to my home purchase, or my stress, time and effort spent on this will be considered by me in the process. Additionally, I have another bill with XXXX XXXX XXXX and XXXX. They were also sent a check in XXXX and have yet to acknowledge that check. They have sent me a bill stating that the account is in pre-collections. I have spoken with them about their billing and check as well as of XX/XX/XXXX. This is absolutely unacceptable. XXXX XXXX billing should be ashamed of themselves, as should I.C. Systems for being party to violations of the FDCPA. I have asked XXXX to have a manager call me back as of XX/XX/XXXX. I ask the CFPB to investigate Intermountain Healthcares billing practices, and agreements with I.C. Systems. Their staff is poorly trained, and has no genuine concept of the FDCPA.

XX/XX/XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, OK XXXX Social Security # XXXX DOB : XX/XX/XXXX XXXX I hereby make a ghost-letter attempt to a resolution on various credit items and/or items of public record that currently show on XXXX, XXXX, XXXX XXXX and XXXX respectively . My position is legal based upon sections of the Fair Credit Reporting Act as well as the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act. These laws are to make sure that a level and fair playing field exist to protect American consumers from abusive reporting procedures on credit reports, as well as illegal and deceptive collection practices. I stipulate at this time that are no condition am I making an identity theft claim or accusation, so I demand that policy be adhered to by all creditors and respective credit reporting agencies. Amended consumer rights Fair Credit Reporting Act Public Law 15 U.S.C. 1681 : XXXX XXXX XXXX Fair Debt Collection Practices Act : XXXX : XXXX CREDITOR CONTACT INFORMATION : IC System Inc. XXXX XXXX. XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, MN XXXX ( XXXX ) XXXX ACCOUNT # XXXX THIS COLLECTION IS FRAUDULANT, I STILL HAVE XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX XXXX AS WELL AS XXXX XXXX XXXX CELL PHONE SERVICE. THIS COLLECTION NEEDS TO BE DELETED PERMASNENTLY! Please be advised that this is not a dispute, but a request to review the above listed tradeline, collection or item of public record. I realize that your job as a subscriber to the affiliated credit reporting agencies is a valuable service to the credit community, but as there are over XXXX, ( XXXX ) individuals just in the United States alone that depend on fairness on credit reporting, and mistakes do happen. At no time consider my objective to be a dispute against any of the bureaus, XXXX, XXXX, XXXX XXXX and XXXX respectively. I believe all medical collections if applied against me, should be removed without exception. However, I will negotiate any of those encumbrances if the collection is legal on its merits. I also request the deletion of tradelines if any prior payment histories have been removed or cut from my credit bureaus. In most cases, the 84-month timeline is valid, and my account, if showing a late payment within that 84-month timeline means under FCRA that the account should be removed, or if still a current account, brought to positive status. I am requesting full validation such as, original transfer rights to collect, confirmation of legal timeline to report on credit and/or collection procedures, validation of licensing requirements, posted bonding requirements, oversight on monthly payment histories, proper subscriber agreement compliance with credit reporting agencies, and overall compliance with all Fair Credit Reporting Act and Fair Debt Collection Practices Act by-laws as mandated. If all of these requirements are not in order, then I have the legal right to request the deletion of this tradeline accordingly. I especially desire compliance under the 84-month timeline for deletion of negative information, with the deletion of the account details altogether. My dispute is quite specific in the exception area posted below : 605. Requirements relating to information contained in consumer reports [ 15 U.S.C. 1681c ], Section 609 of the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), Disclosures to consumers [ 15 U.S.C. 1681g ] ; Section 610 ( a ) ( 1 ) [ 1681h ], and 611. I am posting this dispute through the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau, the governing body of the Fair Credit Reporting Act and the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act. Please respond to this dispute within 30-days as mandated within federal guidelines. Sincerely, XXXX XXXX

I.C. Systems, Inc has violated my consumer rights by continuing to furnish data to the consumer reporting agencies regarding an alleged debt as if they are the original creditor. They haven't been able to provide sufficient debt validation information to show they are the original creditor and the debt hasn't been validated by myself. The term creditor means any person who offers or extends credit creating a debt or to whom a debt is owed, but such term does not include any person to the extent that he receives an assignment or transfer of a debt in default solely for the purpose of facilitating collection of such debt for another. According to 15 USC 1692J It is unlawful to design, compile, and furnish any form knowing that such form would be used to create the false belief in a consumer that a person other than the creditor of such consumer is participating in the collection of or in an attempt to collect a debt such consumer allegedly owes such creditor, when in fact such person is not so participating. b ) Any person who violates this section shall be liable to the same extent and in the same manner as a debt collector is liable under section 1692k of this title for failure to comply with a provision of this subchapter. According to 15USC 1692g I.C. Systems, Inc has failed to provide all of the information required in the law below as well. If the consumer notifies the debt collector in writing within the thirty-day period described in subsection ( a ) that the debt, or any portion thereof, is disputed, or that the consumer requests the name and address of the original creditor, the debt collector shall cease collection of the debt, or any disputed portion thereof, until the debt collector obtains verification of the debt or a copy of a judgment, or the name and address of the original creditor, and a copy of such verification or judgment, or name and address of the original creditor, is mailed to the consumer by the debt collector. Collection activities and communications that do not otherwise violate this subchapter may continue during the 30-day period referred to in subsection ( a ) unless the consumer has notified the debt collector in writing that the debt, or any portion of the debt, is disputed or that the consumer requests the name and address of the original creditor. Any collection activities and communication during the 30-day period may not overshadow or be inconsistent with the disclosure of the consumers right to dispute the debt or request the name and address of the original creditor. According to Texas Finance Code Sec. 393.202 the collection agency has repeatedly violated the code below by utilizing the stall tactic in their response letters without providing any validation of the alleged debt. d ) If the third-party debt collector states that there has not been sufficient time to complete an investigation, the third-party debt collector shall immediately : ( 1 ) change the item in the relevant file as requested by the individual ; ( 2 ) send to each person who previously received the report containing the information a notice that is equivalent to a notice under Subsection ( c ) and a copy of the changed report; and ( 3 ) cease collection efforts. ( e ) On completion by the third-party debt collector of the investigation, the third-party debt collector shall inform the individual of the determination of whether the item is accurate or inaccurate. If the third-party debt collector determines that the information was accurate, the third-party debt collector may again report that information and resume collection efforts.

Long-standing issue with original creditor ( XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX regarding a " delinquent '' account after repeated and frequent open communications. -- Waiting an extended amount of time from XX/XX/XXXX until XX/XX/XXXX for the leased equipment to be investigated and successfully found, led to the account being put into delinquent status despite promises that it wouldn't because " there is an escalation ticket open in the system '' after I explicitly stated " I don't want the account to be sent to collections because we are waiting for your internal processing '', and the original creditors billing system sent the " debt '' to the collection agency " I C Systems ''. -- XXXXXXXX XXXX agent was " surprised '' that the system did this, and informed me that my debt was " in limbo '' and nothing could be done, including making a payment, until the collection agency updated their records. -- Months passed and finally records updated and was shown on my credit reports through XXXX -- On XX/XX/XXXX I made contact with the original creditor after no changes to my credit reports regarding debt owed to " I C Systems ''. I paid an additional amount of {$120.00} for the " remaining account balance owed '' directly to the original creditor and was told " the account balance is {$0.00}, paid in full, and " I C Systems '' would be notified of revocation of their ownership of the debt, and the derogatory marks to be removed from my credit reports ''. Payment Confirmation number was provided and documented. -- After disputing the debt with " I C Systems '' directly through XXXX on XX/XX/XXXX with the original creditor payment confirmation and detailed notes, the updated total balance owed to " I C Systems '' is now showing {$130.00} -- After speaking again with the original creditor again today on XX/XX/XXXX, with both the customer service & collection departments , they are now stating that there's a balance of {$130.00} due to unreturned equipment. I was advised that because the account is closed that they are unable to view account notations or the original prepaid shipping label for internal tracking, but would've been able to if the account was open/active. I've even included a photo showing the device and accessories returned in the prepaid box prior to affixing their prepaid shipping label. -- I have escalated the manner internally with XXXX and they're performing an " investigation & inventory count '' once again, and was provided a ticket number. -- I was responsible and never late with any payments during my tenure as a customer, although the system reflects I was late in the end after the creditors promises were broken. I've asked for documentation besides confirmation numbers but have been declined repeatedly. -- I can't logically understand XXXX XXXX systematic procedures or protocols, especially with frequent open communications, regarding equipment returns and tracking. They have data to aid in the internal search of the equipment, but no access to it. The resulted " finger pointing '' and back & forth status changes are unnerving. -- I'm exhausted in waiting and trying to resolve the manner while my credibility is damaged simultaneously affecting my opportunities and finances. -- I don't think I should be liable and " cave-in '' for yet another additional payment due to their problematic procedures, broken promises, and poor equipment logistics when I've already lost time, credibility and been in continued distress. -- I'm just a student trying to better myself and doing what's proper and fair, but I'm left feeling completely manipulated.

I currently serve in the military and have been for the past 16 years and have relocated XXXX times. I 'm aware of the process and my responsibility of disconnecting services ( i.e.cable, internet, etc. ) I relocated XX/XX/2016 from XXXX, knowing my final date in advance I scheduled all my utilities to be disconnected. Mysteriously, between XXXX and XXXX I did n't disconnect my services ( although I have emails stating I did ). I left XXXX in XXXX and paid my final bill to XXXX with my disconnect date of XX/XX/2016. I was charged for the months of XXXX although not only do I have the disconnection email, I moved from XXXX to XXXX. I called and called in an attempt to figure out what this harassing email was regarding a payment. XXXX informed me I do n't owe anything with XXXX I owe XXXX, XXXX told me I did n't owe them anything I am actually scheduled for a refunded credit that will arrive in the mail. I have emails to support this from XXXX to XXXX. Having thought I finalized this dispute. I received a letter on XXXX XXXX 16 from a collection agency stating I owed XXXX XXXX. I called XXXX - I was told by a " XXXX '' I do n't owe anything, I called XXXX I was told I do n't owe anything and it 's from XXXX. I called XXXX again, explaining I spoke to XXXX and then I was transferred to a woman named " XXXX '' in the XXXX Department who demanded me to pay the XXXX. When I asked, " what is this charge from, what am I paying for when I have n't lived in XXXX since XXXX ''. XXXX informs me " it 's a charge for XXXX and XXXX that XXXX paid XXXX on my behalf I owe XXXX ''. I asked XXXX " How do I owe for XXXX and XXXX - when I did not reside in XXXX and I paid my final bill, and I have the emails to prove that intact, I am the one who is due a credit from XXXX ''. She stated I was getting disrespectful and refused to hear what she was stating. I asked to speak to her supervisor and she refused and said her supervisor was busy. I clarified with her what was stated " I am a customer and you 're telling me I can not speak to your supervisor ''. XXXX then tells me " my supervisor is unavailable and I can place a request if for them to contact you in 72 hours ''. I tell XXXX, yes, do that and ensure they call me in 72 hours. XXXX than goes on demanding payment again, and I end the conversation. I call XXXX, " XXXX '' tells me I was refunded on XXXX though my bank account. I inform " XXXX '', I 'm checking my bank now, and there is no such refund. XXXX informs me, " I see that we credited your bank account on XXXX ''. She places me on hold for maybe 5 mins and returns and states " I misspoke, there was a " card '' sent out to you at your address with a refund. I inform " XXXX '', I have not received a refund - and I tell, first you tell me you see that my bank account has been credit, now you 're saying a " card '' has been mailed to me ''. She returns with " I told you I misspoke and I have a number you can call to check the status of the refund " card ''. XXXX gives me a number, and of course the agency is closed. I have never been treated in such a manner as if I 'm someone who does not pay my bills. I am a XXXX. XXXX XXXX, with 16 years of Service and I have NEVER been as disrespected and treated like I 'm some " criminal '' when I 'm asking how do I owe money, and NO ONE from XXXX or XXXX or the " Collection Agency '' ( IC System ) could give me a straight answer. I am outraged and livid with the way these XXXX agencies have treated me. I have never felt more humiliated from the way I was treated and spoken to as if I do not pay my bills.

XXXX and these company have admitted that my credit file has been breached. They are distressed with me since they knew my file was breached over three years ago. With the help of these thieving collection companies, my personal information is being used all over Georgia with impunity. I have been targeted by criminals about 4 years ago, or so. They are mendacious in saying this breach started in XXXX 2017. In fact, this is a bold face lie. Earlier this year someone got a XXXX card in my name, they did an address change first, then got the card. These collection companies know very well these are no my accounts ; however, these collection companies are seeing XXXX in the water, they are focused like the sharks they are. We must close these collection companies that unabashed in ruining Veterans and XXXX XXXX Family Members credit reputations. They are still with this trickery and foolery. I need to know what could be done to these companies criminally. Those accounts are either, fraudulent, my daughter, or my son. However, it didnt matter to them because it is vengeance, and revenge against me for filing a complaint, and letting other consumers know. This is unacceptable and unenforceable, and this is an unscrupulous bid by these companies to inject itself from legitimate deed against them. They are more disturbed at me, and worried about saving their brand, and not helping the consumer. My Social Security number, birth date, address, driver 's license information is in the hands of criminals supplies by these collection companies and XXXX. This is precisely the category of data criminals can use to mimic victims to banks, credit card companies, insurance companies, and other businesses defenseless to deception. Lock-up these managers at the collection companies, and XXXX. These are smooth and courageous criminals. This situation emerged since my personal data is cherished to thieves, and XXXX and these collection companies are in the business of making money legally, or illegally. These companies are much more than a credit reporting agency. It is a data broker, and thieves living like XXXX XXXX. It collects information from all of us, analyzes it all, and then sell them. They retaliated against me for filing a complaint with C.F.P.B. This retribution came instant within hours after I filed. As a Veteran who fought for this country, and a XXXX XXXX Family Member. They dont care who they XXXX over to save their brand and they thieving ways. These are authentic and true words. Basically, this quote is stating what I am complaining about, that these companies dont care. I learned this the hard way after these companies caused me to lose my V. A. loan, they are creating havoc in my life. They are strongly aware that nothing will happen to them since they believe they are too big to fail. I am forwarding this complaint to XXXX XXXX, and seeking her help to stop criminalizing this Veteran, and this XXXX XXXX Family member. I am filing this again because they admonished, and castigated me for filing an earlier complaint. XXXX and these companies are mafias and gutless wonders! Why would they put these negative accounts on my credit file that doesnt belong to me, except mere retribution? I faxed my credit report, two police reports, and F.T.C. fraud affidavit to XXXX XXXX for protection. They are too stubborn and too crooked to satisfy the consumer, and they are too concerned about XXXX, and these companies brand at the expense of a Veteran, who is a XXXX XXXX Family Member too. This is very sad, and they must punish.

XX/XX/XXXX started new phone service for my business with XXXX XXXX confirmation # XXXX. I will attach a copy of the XX/XX/XXXX bill showing service active. I called and was on the phone with XXXX XXXX XXXX for over 30 minutes as I was moved around when I advised I was cancelling my service. XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX recorded me on a call and advised XXXX XXXX XXXX would be legally advised regarding the switch to XXXX XXXX XX/XX/XXXX. XX/XX/XXXX I received a XX/XX/XXXX to XX/XX/XXXX bill from XXXX XXXX XXXX. I contacted XXXX XXXX and she confirmed my service started XX/XX/XXXX with XXXX so that should be the last bill. I tried to go online at XXXX XXXX XXXX to confirm but my online account was closed. XX/XX/XXXXI received a XX/XX/XXXX to XX/XX/XXXX bill from XXXX XXXX XXXX. I tried to call but was rerouted and put on hold for over an hour. I went to online contact with XXXX XXXX XXXX. I advised XXXX XXXX XXXX of the bill for which I did not have service or even an open account but again was redirected. I copied & pasted this electronic conversation and will attach. I also sent a letter to XXXX XXXX XXXX on XX/XX/XXXX to the address on the bill. XX/XX/XXXX I received a letter from XXXX XXXX XXXX to which I responded XX/XX/XXXX with documentation showing the switch to XXXX XXXX and my correspondence with XXXX XXXX XXXX. I never received any additional contact from XXXX XXXX XXXX. XX/XX/XXXX I received a phone call at work from XXXX XXXX of XXXX XXXX XXXX advising I owe XXXX XXXX XXXX. I asked for a copy of what I owe them and he said that would take a long time to obtain. I explained who would pay a bill they owe but never received? At least 3 phone calls from IC Systems were received over the next 2 weeks asking for payment without any documentation. I told them to stop calling until they produced a bill that I owed XXXX XXXX XXXX. XX/XX/XXXX I received an email from XXXX XXXX with the XX/XX/XXXX to XX/XX/XXXX bill from XXXX XXXX XXXX. XX/XX/XXXXI explained in writing and with documentation my service was with XXXX XXXX on those dates, I had contacted XXXX XXXX XXXX numerous times by phone, electronically and in writing 2 times. The phone calls continue, emails from XXXX XXXX continue with no response to the statements or documentation I presented. They just keep sending emails with the same bill I do not owe XXXX XXXX XXXX because my account was closed and my service with XXXX XXXX. XXXX XXXX XXXX contacted me once every 3 months in XX/XX/XXXX & XX/XX/XXXX trying to sign me up for their service. I explained poor service from XX/XX/XXXX to XX/XX/XXXX is why I left and would not return in the last solicitation in XXXX. I then began receiving debt collection communications. XX/XX/XXXX I responded to the latest email from XXXX XXXX of IC Sytems with a cease contact request and that I would be filing this complaint to stop the emails and phone calls to my business. I also sent IC Systems a written letter with the same information and requested copies of any filings with a credit bureau for the erroneous charge. I would like to file a formal complaint against XXXX XXXX XXXX and IC Systems for bullying and intimidating consumers. This affects my business, employees taking these calls, my time and emotional distress with the concern of bad credit for something I do not owe. I requested we take this to court if they are serious, but I doubt they will because I have proven they only have a case of poor service and intimidation.

I filed a credit card dispute against XXXX, for {$560.00}. On XX/XX/XXXX, XXXX credited my account for {$560.00}, and never sent me a document stating the final outcome of the dispute. I spent over 30 hours from the time of the start of this disaster to the time I am taking to write this letter, and nothing is over. I received multiple letters from IC Systems, a collection agency, telling me to pay XXXX. Throughout this ordeal, I have contacted XXXX on the phone, and was verbally told that I had indeed won the dispute, prior to XX/XX/XXXX, when I had sent 3 letters, to XXXX, IC Systems and XXXX, which I am attaching to this case. Everyone ignored my letters, and instead, I received yet another letter from IC Systems telling me to pay XXXX. I called XXXX again on XX/XX/XXXX, finally reached a manager and was explicitly told that I won the dispute, and that XXXX never responded to the dispute, rendering them to lose the dispute, and that I was going to get a letter stating that I won the dispute. Instead, I get a letter dated XX/XX/XXXX stating that the dispute is just starting from the beginning, and XXXX has 90 days to fight back, and I have to keep my evidence to possibly fight back against XXXX. I was explicitly told that XXXX never responded to my dispute and that they lost by default, all on the phone. So hear this - hypothetically, if I recorded XXXXXXXX on the phone, then I could go to jail for illegal recording - so I recorded nothing. But now, I have no evidence of that phone call, and it is as if all this disaster which I went through was for nothing. XXXX already admitted their own incompetence in the XX/XX/XXXX letter. They admitted to crediting my account for {$560.00} on XX/XX/XXXX, meaning the dispute started on XX/XX/XXXX. This means that XXXX had 90 days ( as evidenced by the end of the letter ) to fight back, but they didn't, they sat back and ignored it ; this means XXXX lost by default. Now XXXX is saying they are giving XXXX another 90 days to respond! I legally had to keep my evidence of the dispute during the dispute 's lifespan, which ended way before the XX/XX/XXXX letter. However, XXXX is telling me that I should keep my evidence until the dispute is over! This is fraud beyond fraud, and were it not for the COVID-19 situation, I would take all 3 companies to court and sue them for my lost wages during the time I am dealing with them, possible unwarranted damages to my stellar credit history, and other damages. I am attaching all the evidence, and I am ready to testify in court if I have to, because I am disgusted of me as the customer being destroyed by these corporations who think they are above the law. I work during the day. I do not answer the phone. I am working. I only communicate by email. Although I legally don't have to, because I already won my credit card dispute, and the statute of limitations already expired for it, I am attaching pictures showing the job which XXXX did. Unfortunately, I am a nice guy, and I didn't plaster these pictures over the web when everything first happened, but perhaps I will spend another hour of my time, making it a total of 31 lost hours, and make this story known all over the place, which they deserve. And also, to the XXXX rep who gave me an unsolicited phone call a few weeks ago, what he did was illegal, and would have been dealt with already, if were not in a quarantine due to COVID-19 right now.

I am writing to express my deep frustration and file a formal complaint regarding the reappearance of a previously paid and cleared XXXX bill on my credit report. This matter has already been addressed, settled, and removed from my credit report in the past, and it is highly concerning that it has resurfaced without any prior notice or opportunity for me to dispute it. On XX/XX/2021, I decided to switch from XXXX to XXXX XXXX XXXX due to consistent issues with XXXXXXXX XXXX customer service XXXX In order to port my number over to XXXX XXXX XXXX, I was required to settle my final bill with XXXX XXXX Consequently, on XX/XX/2021, I made the payment to a XXXX representative using two separate cards : XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX and XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX This was done as the representative insisted that my initial card was not going through, resulting in the utilization of the additional card. To my surprise, after the portation process was completed, I discovered that I had been double-charged. As a result of this unauthorized double charge, I had to dispute the transaction with my bank to retrieve the excess amount. Fortunately, the dispute was resolved in my favor, and the funds were returned. Subsequently, I provided the necessary evidence to XXXX, demonstrating the erroneous double charge, resulting in the removal of the charge from my account and the closure of the matter. However, I am now dismayed to discover that, XXXX years later, this paid and cleared bill has reappeared on my credit report, courtesy of IC System Collection Agency, without any prior notification or opportunity for me to dispute it. This is a clear violation of the new law that requires collection agencies to provide proper notification to allow individuals to dispute erroneous debts before placing them on their credit reports. I must emphasize that I have previously taken action to rectify this issue. I have filed complaints with all three major credit bureaus and the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau ( CFPB ) to ensure that this matter was addressed and resolved appropriately. The fact that I am revisiting this matter, which has already been settled, is not only frustrating but also reflects a disregard for my rights as a consumer. Considering the previous legal actions I undertook, including a successful lawsuit against XXXX, it is perplexing and highly disappointing that this issue has resurfaced. I demand an immediate resolution to this matter, which entails : The removal of the erroneously reinstated XXXX bill from my credit report. Confirmation in writing that this matter has been resolved and that my credit report will reflect the accurate information. An apology for the inconvenience, stress, and time wasted in having to address this matter once again. I expect a swift and satisfactory resolution to this issue within [ reasonable timeframe, e.g., 14 days ] from the date of this letter. Failure to comply with this request will leave me with no choice but to escalate this complaint to higher authorities and seek further legal recourse to protect my rights. As a consumer who believes in fair treatment, I trust that IC System Collection Agency will handle this complaint with the utmost urgency and seriousness it deserves. I anticipate a prompt resolution and a written confirmation of the actions taken. Thank you for your attention to this matter. Yours sincerely, XXXX XXXX

In XXXX of XXXX I took my dog to XXXX XXXX XXXX on XXXX XXXX in XXXX XXXX, CA. They told me that if I signed up to pay a regular monthly fee of {$44.00} that they would cover the costs of my pet 's care through their wellness plan. I agreed to pay the {$44.00} + {$20.00} to start the plan, according to the vet 's office. I brought my dog in XX/XX/XXXX for a follow-up booster shot and paid separately for an ear cleaning that the XXXX XXXX XXXX on XXXX XXXX in XXXX XXXX stated was not covered because XXXX had suspended the plan. At the time I did not know the reason why, so I paid for the services that day. I never received any paperwork following my initial payments, nor did I receive any delinquency notices. I did not bring my dog to XXXX after XX/XX/XXXX because of the plan suspension, which I did not know how to resolve. I received a call in XX/XX/XXXX from XXXX 's customer service. The customer service rep said that they were unable to charge my card since XX/XX/XXXX. I tried to troubleshoot the issue over the phone with her, but nothing was working. I followed-up with my credit card issuer, and eventually found that my credit card company had flagged XXXX XXXX XXXX as fraud because XXXX was repeatedly trying to charge my card more than once per day. I called XXXX back after receiving this information from my credit card company and asked XXXX to extend the membership period to account for the time I was unable to use the plan while this issue was occurring, due to their own erratic collection practices ( basically 2-3 months ) and XXXX refused XXXX Therefore, I asked to cancel the plan so I would no longer have to pay. The woman I spoke to assured me that it was cancelled and that I would receive a letter in the mail. Then, I received an email in XX/XX/XXXX from XXXX. The email stated that I was still being held responsible for the monthly cost of {$44.00} for 12 months and that IF I wanted to cancel my plan I would still have to pay approximately {$500.00} for the remaining 11 months on the plan. I explained that I had already cancelled the plan a few months prior. I also asked if I would re-gain use of the plan if I paid the approximately {$500.00}. XXXX refused to respond to my question in writing and told me to call them. Since they did not cancel my plan as requested over the phone previously, I felt it would not serve the situation well to speak to them on the phone again due to their obvious dishonest over cancelling the plan several months before. On XX/XX/XXXX I received a notice from I.C. System Inc. stating that they are trying to collect a debt on behalf of XXXX XXXX XXXX. The letter states that XXXX is both the original and current creditor to whom the debt is owed. They are asserting that I owe XXXX {$490.00} which is essentially 11 months of the plan. However, there is no mention of regaining access to the wellness plan if I pay the amount. Essentially, XXXX is calling this amount the cancellation fee to the plan. I was not informed that this would be the case. There was never any mention of having to pay the monthly cost of the plan regardless of my access to it. I believe this to be purposely orchestrated by XXXX XXXX XXXX to collect money from consumers that their business does not actually earn. They were not transparent about any cancellation fees or costs to terminate the plan at the time I signed up.

Subject : Complaint Against I.C. System, Inc. Regarding Unfair Debt Collection Practices I am writing to file a formal complaint against I.C. System, Inc. regarding their egregious and unlawful debt collection practices. Despite my attempts to resolve the matter directly with the company, I have encountered multiple violations of the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act ( FDCPA ) and believe it is necessary to escalate this complaint to the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau ( CFPB ) for further investigation and intervention. My complaint pertains to the following violations committed by I.C. System, Inc. : 1. Communication Tactics : I.C. System, Inc. has engaged in relentless and intrusive communication tactics by repeatedly calling me, even after I explicitly requested that all communication be conducted in writing. These incessant phone calls have caused significant emotional distress and created an atmosphere of harassment. Furthermore, during these calls, their representatives have resorted to using abusive and offensive language, which is completely unprofessional and unacceptable. 2. False Representation : The company has made several false statements and misrepresentations in an attempt to collect a debt that I do not owe. They have falsely claimed to be lawyers or government officials, thereby misleading and intimidating me into making a payment. Such deceptive tactics are in direct violation of the FDCPA and undermine consumer rights. 3. Attempts to Collect Debt Not Owed : I have never received any written notification regarding the alleged debt until recently, leaving me unaware of my right to dispute the debt. Furthermore, I was unaware of my right to request validation of the debt until conducting independent research. I.C. System, Inc. attempted to collect a debt without providing the necessary information and documentation to substantiate its validity, which is a clear violation of the FDCPA. 4. Insufficient Information to Verify Debt : Even after receiving the notification, I found the provided information to be inadequate for me to verify the alleged debt. The company failed to provide the amount of the debt, the name of the original creditor, verification or proof of the debt, and their authority to collect it. This lack of documentation raises doubts about the legitimacy of the claim and reinforces my belief that I do not owe the alleged debt. Given these violations, I am seeking the intervention of the CFPB to address this matter and take appropriate action against I.C. System, Inc. I request a thorough investigation into their practices and enforcement of the necessary measures to ensure compliance with the FDCPA and other applicable laws. Enclosed with this complaint, please find copies of any supporting documentation, such as call logs, correspondence, and any other relevant evidence that substantiates my claims. I am more than willing to provide any further information or assistance necessary to facilitate a prompt investigation into this matter. I trust that the CFPB will handle this complaint with the utmost seriousness and work diligently to rectify the situation. I request regular updates on the progress of the investigation and any actions taken in response to this complaint. Thank you for your attention to this matter, and I look forward to a swift resolution. Sincerely,

date opened on this collection was XX/XX/2021 and the collection amount is XXXX. I do not know what this debt is from, but it isn't mine and I signed no contract for this collection or debt. Section 611 ( a ) of the FCRA requires a CRA to conduct a reasonable reinvestigation of any item of information in a consumer 's file if the consumer alleges the item to be inaccurate Section 623 ( a ) ( 3 ). The federal banking and credit union regulators and the FTC will issue regulations that will identify when an information furnisher must investigate a dispute made directly to the furnisher by a consumer. Section 609 refers to a section of the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) that addresses your rights to request copies of your own credit reports and associated information that appears on your credit reports. 606. Disclosure of investigative consumer reports [ 15 U.S.C. 1681d ] 607. ( a ) ( b ) ( c ) Compliance procedures [ 15 U.S.C. 1681e ] 611 - 15 U.S.C. 1681i Reasonable policies and procedures concerning the accuracy and integrity of furnished information ( 12 CFR 222.42 ) and Interagency Guidelines ( 12 CFR 222, Appendix E ) Each furnisher must establish and implement reasonable written policies and procedures regarding the accuracy and integrity of consumer information that it furnishes to a consumer reporting agency. The policies and procedures must be appropriate to the nature, size, complexity, and scope of each furnisher 's activities. In developing its policies and procedures, a furnisher must consider the Interagency Guidelines and may include its existing policies and procedures that are relevant and appropriate. Each furnisher must also review its policies and procedures periodically and update them as necessary to ensure their continued effectiveness. Direct disputes ( 12 CFR 222.43 ) General rule. A furnisher must conduct a reasonable investigation of a direct dispute ( unless exceptions, described later, apply ) if the dispute relates to : 1 ) The consumer 's liability for a credit account or other debt with the furnisher, such as direct disputes relating to whether there is or has been identify theft or fraud against the consumer, whether there is individual or joint liability on an account, or whether the consumer is an authorized user of a credit account ; Duties of a Furnisher after Receiving a Direct Dispute Notice from a Consumer. After receiving a dispute notice from a consumer, the furnisher must : 1 ) Conduct a reasonable investigation with respect to the disputed information ; 2 ) Review all relevant information provided by the consumer with the dispute notice ; 3 ) Complete its investigation of the dispute and report the results of the investigation to the consumer before the expiration of the period under section 611 ( a ) ( 1 ) of the FCRA ( 15 U.S.C. 1681i ( a ) ( 1 ) ) within which a consumer reporting agency would be required to complete its action if the consumer had elected to dispute the information under that section ; and 4 ) If the investigation finds that the information reported was inaccurate, promptly notify each consumer reporting agency to which the furnisher provided inaccurate information of investigation findings and provide to the consumer reporting agency any correction to that information that is necessary to make the information provided by the furnisher accurate.

XX/XX/2019 : I receive a cat, and am concerned about the fact that she's drinking/XXXX excessively ( literally drinking a half-gallon per day ). I took her to XXXX in XXXX, and after a 5 min inspection and several attempts to pressure me into a wellness plan, they tell me she's fine with no testing at all. This was with XXXX XXXX. XX/XX/2019 : One of my two cats is XXXX XXXX, and we decide to take him into XXXX. We went to the XXXX XXXX location, where we saw XXXX XXXX. After running several tests ( and {$900.00} later ) they tell me there's nothing wrong with him. I then inform the Dr that my other cat has some issues with her XXXX and that XXXX XXXX said she was fine just a few months prior. A few days later : I was convinced to bring my cat back to the XXXX ( the one I adopted in XXXX ) so they could run additional tests to prove whether or not she was actually sick ( since they ran zero tests before telling me she was fine in XXXX ) and they informed me nothing was wrong yet again. During this visit, they convinced me to sign up for a wellness plan with a spay, because I was informed she would surely get XXXX XXXX if I didn't. This was now the second chance that the Dr 's have had to examine her. A few days later again : I get a call from the original location in XXXX ( with no communication from the XXXX XXXX office about her tests results ) that she needs to come in immediately for a comprehensive exam. at this time, I called the XXXX XXXX office asking for the test results, and an employee promised a call back by the end of the day. XXXX rolls around and I call again, only to be told it was the employees last day and they must have forgot to tell someone, so sorry we will call you tomorrow ( they did, still no real results ). During the visit to the XXXX XXXX ( the 3rd time they've had a chance to examine her ) they put me on the schedule for a spay the next week. Today : I went in for the scheduled XXXX, and a few hours later I get a call that the Dr. found a tattoo and scar on my cat AFTER PUTTING HER UNDER XXXX AND SHAVING HER that indicates that she was ALREADY XXXX!!!! Stay tuned, I'm still fighting with them to let me out of the wellness plans for my two pets ( not even a month later ) and I'm now being told that there were an additional {$600.00} in ADDITIONAL charges that were " billed to the plan '' that I would have to pay to cancel!!! If you're still not convinced, please see the countless reviews from former employees online here 's a quote from one " Pay is based on production ; as an example, you receive {$0.00} production for exams on patients on wellness plans! Minimum {$2400.00} billed services/ day. if not, you guessed it- not meeting production! Further, you are forced to push all sorts of ad ons, many increase hospital revenue but add nothing to your daily production. Sense a trend? '' At this point, I've spent well over {$1000.00} with no answers as to what is wrong with either of my cats, and I've wasted a crazy amount of time with these clueless XXXX 's. Save yourself the trouble and just go somewhere else. I called their corporate office about this issue and was not only talked over and laughed at but they literally haven't even acknowledged their wrong doing or apologized. I have attempted to call them SEVERAL times, including today with no callback.

I am not liable for the debt with defenders I.C. System INC the company did not provide the ORIGINAL contract with my SIGNATURE as I requested. According to the XXXX I. C. System INC IS NOT AUTHORIZED to collect any debts in the state of TEXAS. 15 US code 1692 ( A ) There is abundant evidence of the use of abusive, deceptive, and unfair debt collection practices by many debt collectors.

XXXX XX/XX/XXXX XX/XX/XXXX I.C. System Inc. keeps submitting fraudulent " debt collection '' against my credit reports ( XXXX, XXXX, XXXX ). XXXX, XXXX and XXXX all took off the fraudulent collection status from XXXX and they took it off again XX/XX/XXXX but then it looks like I.C. System Inc. resubmitted the collection again to XXXX who reasserted the collection status against my credit record. The account charge is from XXXX XXXX who I called and affirmed that they have no record of my account with them ever being passed due. The name for the bill is " XXXX XXXX '' and that person is not me and has never been an alias for me nor has ever been a legal name of me. That person happens to have used a partial address as where I reside and I.C. System Inc. has associated my name and phone # with that name. They have refused to remove the association with my name despite agreeing that the default account the credit agencies having agreed that the account XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, so possibly XXXX ) is not an account associated with me at all. All three credit agencies removed the collection status and do not have XXXX as an alias for me. My request is for I.C. System Inc. to stop associating " XXXX XXXX XXXX '', " XXXX XXXX '', " XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX and variations of that name ) with my credit history, phone number, and personal identifying information AND to STOP submitting collections against my credit that are not mine and specifically stop submitting collections and debts attributed to XXXX ( and variations of that name ) against me. The multiple submissions against me is harassment since I have contacted I.C. Systems Inc. 3 times and contacted all three credit agencies and XXXX who all agree that person and the debts are not mine. Note : XXXX, XXXX, and XXXX took off the collection as of XX/XX/XXXX and t hen XXXX reposted the collection status on XX/XX/XXXX. It is unreasonable to have to check and dispute this charge every couple of days and causing me material harm in gaining credit and paying hire interest on credit. I talked to I.C. Systems Inc. XXXX times ( XXXX XXXX, XXXX? XXXX XXXX?, XXXX XXXX ) and the last time on XX/XX/XXXX at approximately XXXX AM, when I asked XXXX XXXX if he can officially disassociate my identity and phone # from the " XXXX '' collections, he stated that I would have to contact the credit agencies. I conveyed that I had already done that and he said " You are asking me to contact the credit agencies for you. '' and I said, " No that is not correct, I have already contacted them and they took off the collection and now your company has fraudulently resubmitted a collection claim against me. If you do not stop then I'll have to contact the Consumer Finance Agency and report you but I'd like to handle this with you directly. '' XXXX then said " .... I am going to hang up on you '' and hung up. I talked to XXXX XXXX times. All three times they were polite and helpful and acknowledged all my accounts with them are in good standing and have never been in collections. XXXX opened up an investigation on the issue and found in my favor but their Collection Agent ( I.C. Systems Inc. ) continues to harass me. XXXX advised that I contact ConsumerFinance.gov to get them to stop because the harassment is illegal.

Hello, I am writing in response to a debt you guys claim I own. I do not believe that I owe this debt or what you say I owe and want some more explanation on it. Are you familiar with something called 15 U.S.C Sec. 1681i ( a )? It states that if you can't provide the proof that I am requesting below, then this account must be deleted. I want this account deleted from all 3 credit bureaus if it has been sent to them, if not I want you guys to cease collection if you can not give me my request in this letter and to be emailed/mailed proof of deletion if ALL the information is not 100 % and correct. Under the " Fair Credit Reporting Act '' where it states By Law, I have the rights to challenge anything I am not sure is accurate. This is an account that I do not recognize. Pursuant to the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act, Section 809 ( b ), Validating Debts, I respectfully request that you provide me with the following : 1. Agreement with the original creditor that authorizes you to collect on this alleged debt and/or verification that this alleged debt was assigned or sold to you. 2. The agreement bearing my signature stating that I have agreed to assume the debt 3. Valid copies of the debt agreement stating the amount of the debt and interest charges 4. Proof that you are licensed to collect debts in the State of Ohio 5. Complete payment history on this account along with an accounting of all additional charges being assessed 6. The amount of the debt and name of the original creditor 7. Your license numbers and Registered Agent or Agent of Service. Please respond with ALL of the information that I requested above. Your non-compliance with my request will also be construed as an absolute waiver of all claims to enforce the debt against me and your implied agreement to compensate me for court costs and attorney fees if I am forced to bring this matter before a judge.

My XXXX grandmother was being charged for an XXXX XXXX XXXX bundle that included TV, Internet service and telephone. She was sold a bundle of services she did not need, such as cable and internet service. She did not have internet capabilities, nor did she have a TV. She was sent to a retirement home in XX/XX/XXXX. In XX/XX/XXXX, XXXX XXXX XXXX was contacted and all the services, except for home telephone was cancelled .Many calls were placed to XXXX XXXX XXXX for help with XXXX XXXX bill. After many calls, and weeks of trying to get someone to help with our questions on her charges, the service agents were not able to look up her bill, or explain why she was being billed for services she did not use, I finally asked for a supervisor in the XXXX side of XXXX XXXX XXXX, to look up how much internet service had been utilized in the previous months. XXXX had not utilized internet service at all. The supervisor assured me her bill would be credited for any unused services. It was agreed to keep the home telephone service activated, and the remaining bundle would be cancelled. However, not only was it not credited as promised, a new contract was not sent nor was one signed for just the home telephone service. After a month, we elected to cancel the service completely. After canceling the service, XXXX XXXX XXXX continued to deduct the payment directly from her checking account. I notified XXXX 's bank of the the charges from XXXX XXXX XXXX, and requested the bank to not allow XXXX XXXX XXXX to deduct fees from her bank account. Additional charges after I cancelled the service bundle were then disputed. ( which was the end of XX/XX/XXXX ). XXXX XXXX XXXX continued to try and deduct the amount from her bank account, and after many unsuccessful attempts, XXXX XXXX XXXX started sending collection notices and balances that should have been credited. Additionally, It was researched and determined by her bank on XX/XX/XXXX, ( XXXX ) that she did not owe XXXX XXXX XXXX any remaining balance, and her account was credited for {$340.00}. A letter was also sent from XXXX to XXXX XXXX XXXX with a complete explanation of findings. This was on XX/XX/XXXX. Copies of the bills from XXXX XXXX XXXX were sent to XXXX, but the XXXX XXXX XXXX bills were so confusing it was obvious they could not prove where there were credits made to her account after the services were cancelled. Within that time frame, after her bank disputed the charges, I personally spoke to over a dozen people at XXXX XXXX XXXX trying to get a final bill to pay. The copies of the bills that were sent were so confusing with credits and debits. I was transferred over and over, and waited for hours on hold just to get a final bill to pay. XXXX XXXX XXXX kept sending out overdue statements, and every single statement was different from the last. At the beginning of XX/XX/XXXX, XXXX XXXX XXXX turned the overdue balance over to a collection agency. The collection agency has been calling and harassing my XXXX XXXX XXXX grandmother, who has XXXX, at the facility she is at, and asking for payment. The bill is now well over {$900.00}. for some reason. I will contact the collection agency again today, and ask them to cease contact. Additionally, I have copies of letters from the bank if needed. Thank You!!

I opened a XXXX account in XX/XX/XXXX. In XXXX of XXXX, a phone ( XXXX XXXXXXXX XXXX ) I ordered had been stuck in transit, sitting at a local XXXX for 3 weeks. XXXX told me they would be turning the phone around in transit and shipping it back to their warehouse. One Phone ( XXXX XXXX ) I ordered came but had taken 5-6 weeks as well and I was not happy with XXXX at this point. I called and canceled service and shipped the phone that had arrived ( XXXX XXXX ) back to them. I called in XX/XX/XXXX after receiving a notification about the phone ( XXXXXXXX XXXX ) they had to turn around because it had been stuck and sitting at XXXX for 3 weeks. They told me their own tracking showed the phone had made it safely back to their warehouse but they could not locate it themselves to scan it in and to call back in a month. I asked " what if this charges me {$1500.00}? '' The customer service rep told me she would remove my payment information because " You do not owe this and you can not remove payment information if there is a balance on an account such as this ''. She removed my payment information. I called back in XX/XX/XXXX to check and was told by the gentleman that they have sent this to a supervisor because once again, I am told this is their fault they lost the phone again but this time in their own warehouse. I was asked again to call back the next month to check. I asked this gentlemen " what happens if this never comes off. What happens if this hits my credit? '' He replied " hmmmm you're right, that would be bad, I'll have a supervisor call you. '' NO ONE EVER CALLED ME. I call back XX/XX/XXXX, again, same story, profuse apologizing, sending to supervisor, telling me " I'm so sorry, I do see the notes here, this isn't your fault, you do not owe this ''. I call in XXXX and XXXX of XXXX, SAME STORY. But when I call in XX/XX/XXXX, I am told I have been turned over to COLLECTIONS!! My exact fear and what I called about monthly!! I have worked very hard on my credit, never made a late payment anywhere and have always paid my accounts. In XXXX, I called multiple times a day for a week, a supervisor tells me after a " long review '' that there is nothing they can do and that I should have called and handled this sooner ... ...... I call back but XXXX only hangs up on me at this point until XX/XX/XXXX. IC systems, the DEBT COLLECTOR told me to write my letter explaining all of this, I did and they deemed I did not owe this from the notes XXXX had to submit with my dispute. But guess what?? XXXX has submitted me to XXXX now, ANOTHER DEBT COLLECTOR!! I called on Monday, XX/XX/XXXX to the XXXX department for my 100th time and now I am waiting on yet a 4 review of a " supervisor '' and I am not hopeful. I should not be paying {$1500.00} for a phone I never once touched and that XXXX confirmed with me repeatedly they recieved back, in a timely manner but apparently couldn't locate to " scan '' at their own facility. This has put a big dent in my credit. XXXX hangs up on me repeatedly and IC systems threatened me until I mailed them the letter containing this information and the email where the XXXX XXXX removed my payment proving they said I have not ever owed this debt on this phone. Please help me.

It was at this time that I had contacted XXXX to extend my internet service for a period of one year as my current contract had expired. Unbeknownst to me, rather than extend my existing term, the sales rep had created a new account. I was later informed by a XXXX employee, this was a common practice in order to achieve sales goal requirements ( I soon learned at the expense of unsuspecting consumers ). For the months of XX/XX/XXXX, XX/XX/XXXXand XX/XX/XXXX, as evidenced by my XXXX account printout from their website and my bank statements enclosed, they had double billed my account. They were direct billing my bank account as a requirement for services ( and as a promotion I was to receive a pre-paid XXXX card, which I never did receive ), so I had little control to stop these payments. When I informed them via phone in XX/XX/XXXX that this was occurring they said they would have it fixed. When it still hadnt been corrected by XX/XX/XXXX AND I began receiving collection calls from XXXX I became furious. It was necessary for me to take off work to go to their local office and get it corrected. Ultimately, it took me three days of missing work to finally get it corrected. XXXX had agreed to credit my account for the overbilling. This was shown as a credit on my account in the months of XX/XX/XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX and the remainder of the credit in XX/XX/XXXX. This again is evidenced by the lack of billing for those months in the printout from my XXXX account. In XX/XX/XXXX, you can see where the normal billing then resumed. I was surprised to learn this account was being placed for collections with XXXX last month. After numerous discussions with several employees at XXXX, I was informed they wouldnt remove the collection and insisted I pay them an additional {$130.00} to remove it. This is having an extremely negative impact on my credit rating and ability to buy a home. I am asking for your help to remove this inaccurate information from my credit file. I was okay with the fact that I never received the promotional item promised. I was okay with the fact that the original monthly payment quoted ( see attached ) was not what I received. Where I must draw the line is when they are having a grossly negative impact in my ability to acquire credit. To summarize this injustice ; XXXX double billed me for services, never provided me with the promotional item I was supposed to receive, admitted they were wrong and credited my account, now have placed that same double billing for collections, listed it on my credit report and are refusing to remove it. I am appalled this Company can be allowed to stigmatize consumers credit by extorting them to pay monies not due using this tactic. Any help you can provide assisting me undo this wrongful act would be greatly appreciated.

I.C. System, Inc has an alleged debt claim against me in the amount of {$200.00}. The Reference Number for this alleged debt is XXXX. Furthermore they have reported this alleged debt to the Credit Bureaus XXXX XXXX ) under account # XXXX. As of yesterday, XX/XX/XXXX, I have sent them a total of XXXX Debt Validation Letters through the United States XXXX XXXX, and spoke to their Supervisor XXXX XXXX on the phone to no avail. They have failed to removed this alleged debt off their records and continue to report me to the credit bureaus. As of today, XX/XX/XXXX, I have mailed them yet another debt validation letter through the post office. I've also emailed the following I.C. System Inc, employees about this alleged debt with copies of my debt validation letter and an identity theft report from the FTC. They include : XXXX XXXX - XXXX, XXXX XXXX - XXXX XXXX, XXXX XXXX - XXXX of XXXX, XXXX XXXX - XXXX, XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX XXXX - Operations Supervisor, XXXX XXXX - Operations Supervisor, XXXX XXXX - Operations Supervisor, XXXX XXXX - Senior Vice President of Business Development, XXXX XXXX - XXXX XXXX. Under the Fair Credit Reporting Act 15 U.S.C. 1681 et seq, is U.S. Federal Government legislation enacted to protect my rights with accuracy, fairness, and privacy of consumer information contained in the files of consumer reporting agencies. I.C. Systems has failed to do this. They've also neglected to call me on my phone, email me, speak to me in person, or mail me notice of this alleged debt to my current address, or my previous address as well. Had they done so under the FCRA guidelines, I'd have responded sooner to this alleged fraudulent debt. I.C. System, Inc has violated my rights repeatedly and with impunity over a debt that is not mine. They claim the debt was incurred at an address I never lived at. I.C. System has also been complicit in lying about the validation of this debt to consumer reporting agencies like XXXX. Since XXXX, XXXX I have mailed XXXX dispute letters to XXXX, along with filing disputes online with the agency and over the phone. Every dispute ends the same way. XXXX claims that I.C. System provided them with proof that I owe this debt, yet neither company has ever released that information to me. I.C. System and XXXX are violating my rights under section 609 of the Fair Credit Reporting Act. 15 U.S.C 1681 section 602 A. States I have the right to privacy. 15 U.S.C 1681 Section 604 A Section 2 : It also states a consumer reporting agency can not furnish a account without my written instructions. There is obviously some type of fraud going on with I.C. System and I request an investigation into this right away. I have uploaded a copy of the 3rd letter sent to I.C. System along with a copy of my Identity theft report filed with the FTC. I ask that XXXX and I.C. System provide me with verifiable proof of this fraudulent debt so that I may continue to pursue my legal case against both companies if this matter is not resolved in a timely fashion. I.C. System can not hide from me anymore. What they are doing to me is a testament to the unscrupulous practices being implemented at that company.

On XX/XX/XXXX at XXXX hrs I received a call from a IC System. The customer service representative was XXXX and when she first called she attempted to verify my information. I refused to inform her and repeated asked her what business was her company and she stated that IC System was a consume relations company. I continued to ask what type of company and she continued to ask me to verify my information. When I confirmed my name and address she then notified me she was a collection agency. She stated that I owed a XXXX bill dating back from XXXX. I tried to explain to her that XXXX never sent me a finalized and itemized statement and requested a dispute. She stated she could give me a verbal bill at which time I declined and requested that she dispute this amount because the balance was incorrect. She stated that I would need to resolve this XXXX. I then spoke with XXXX XXXX, manager abut my complaints. She state that the account was in collections but she would complete submit my dispute. She then provided me my account number. She then addressed my complaint about the misleading information at the beginning of the phone call. She stated that by law they can not reveal they are a collection company when they initial call people. She then state this is done to protect people information. I informed her that this was misleading and she stated that it was the law and all collection agencies do this. When I informed her that I asked XXXX several times what is this company and she refused to tell until I verifeid my info, I felt that this was misleading. I informed her that I have tried to resolve this issue with XXXX and other collection agencies have told me upon calling who they were. She told me that I could move forward with my dispute. The call ended. I contacted XXXX and spoke with XXXX in finance and I requested and itemized bill be sent with the update or correct balance. I explained to XXXX that this account has been disputed since XXXX and for the same reason. I explained that XXXX has never sent me an itemized statement per my request since XXXX when the account was closed. XXXX stated attempted to verify my address, but the address XXXX had was different than my main address and the address the collection agency had. XXXX was provided the correct address.. I then spoke with a XXXX supervisor who stated that they would notify collection but instead of resolving the problem they transferred me back to collections. I then spoke with IC Systems again who stated that they can not provide itemized statements and they just can only provide what XXXX gives them. IC Systems transferred me back to XXXX and the customer service representative stated that the account was sent to collections in XXXX and the adjustments were made in XXXX. I was then informed that no itemized bill was visible for review and that bills can only go back two years from the last date of service. XXXX is trying to see if they can obtain an itemized bill for my review since I never received bill after service was cancelled and the adjustment were made in XXXX. XXXX is not even sure if they have a bill for me to view and validate the debt amount is correct.

I have been with XXXX for 14 years. Years back I fell into hardship and had some late payments back then, but I caught up and have been very current and on time for quite a few yrs now to the end. I believe it was in XX/XX/XXXX I had decided to go with another carrier who could give me the exact service XXXX was but instead of charging me {$270.00} a month it would only cost me {$80.00}. I am XXXX and can I can not afford their ridiculous charges anymore. As of that date my account was current with XXXX. I had tried to sign on to my account as Im at the store dropping XXXX n getting a different phone service. The woman had told me that I needed my XXXX account number. So I try to sign on to my account was unsuccessful so I had called them answered all the security questions so the gentleman on the phone helping me said hold on a second it's pulling right up and he must have heard me speaking to the other phone lady that I was standing there with, and then he says why do you want this? It's said because it's my account number and I want it. So I got bounced around to several people I was on the phone literally for 2 hours the woman in the store even tried calling them to get the number they kept giving me wrong numbers hanging up on me. After the phone store that I was in had closed and I'm still there. she stayed at the store for me although she had it all locked up and was nice enough to wait till I ran home to get my XXXX account number period after being on the phone being tossed around for 2 hours with XXXX. So as I'm heading to my house someone from XXXX calls me and tells me he's going to save me {$70.00} if I stay with. I never mentioned I was leaving them for one so that was me indication that they did hear me speaking to another phone person and two I had asked the gentleman why can't you save me {$70.00} when I was your loyal customer? No answer and he precedes to finally give me my account number. I went back to the phone store got my new device and account with a different carrier and I cancelled XXXX. At the end of that month I received a bill from XXXX for I believe it was on or around {$270.00}. I don't remember getting any bills from XXXX in between that bill and the last one I received dated XX/XX/2018 for the amount of {$1200.00}. I very well may have but I was in the middle of moving and had my dog put down and just a lot of stress and upsetment in my life, they were the last thing on my mind. Then I received another bill for from their collection. I think it's unfair I think they bully people in overcharge and this bill is outrageous. The woman at the store said that several people have been having problems with XXXX because everybody 's leaving them because of their high prices and they're doing everything even if it's refusing to give you your own information to get people to stay with their company. I feel like this company is Relentless and they'll just keep firing out their bills and turning people into collections and in hopes people pay their that much further ahead it's highway robbery. And I don't have 12 - {$1300.00} in order for XXXX to rob me more for services I did not even use. Thank you

This letter was sent twice both times IC Systems ignored my request. I sent the letters within 30 day time frame. XXXX removed it from my credit report do to lack of response. IC Systems has not provided any information requested. I believe XXXX and XXXX are negligent in their resposibilities to the consumer.

Due to this fact, if any negative mark is found on any of my credit reports by your company or the company you represent, I will not hesitate in bringing legal action against you for the following : Violation of the Fair Credit reporting Act Violation of the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act Defamation of Character If your offices are able to provide the proper documentation as requested, I will require at 30 days to investigate this information and during such time all collection activity must cease and desist. Also, during the investigation period, if any action is taken which could be considered detrimental to any of my credit reports, I will consult with legal counsel.

This is actually a complaint which stems from another complaint I made against IC Systems directly to you. It involves a phone call made to them on XX/XX/XXXX of this year. In that phone call I attempted to have IC Systems forward me an itemization and contract on collections they were attempting to collect on behalf of XXXX XXXX Hospital. I was met with a lot of resistance and was outright lied to and demeaned by their rogue collector. The collector stated I could only obtain a contract and itemization of the charges directly through XXXX because IC systems didn't do that. I was in shock because they are obligated by the F.D.C.P.A. to do so. To prove my point, IC System did eventually give me what I asked for but they didn't do so until XX/XX/XXXX and XXXX which was 41 and 42 days after I requested them by phone and writing as well as week after I submitted my complaint to you. I was also told by the collector that " he knew I wasn't trying to pay this bill at all '' which was abusive insinuating that I don't pay my bills as well as demeaning my character. Furthermore, I was told by the collector that if I sent a dispute to his company that it would ultimately do nothing and that I should only send it to make me feel better. This was a clear and willful attempt to get me to give up my rights under the F.D.C.P.A. to dispute a debt and have it validated. It is also clearly a false and misleading representation and an unfair practice. When I submitted this complain on XX/XX/XXXX, I was expecting IC Systems to file a response to the complaint as is suggested by this website. Instead, what I receive is a paragraph saying IC system 's response was sent to me directly by mail because they couldn't verify who wrote this complaint! To make matters worse, they never did! It is true that I finally received an itemization and contract that I requested 41 and 42 days prior, but there was no letter of acknowledgment of my C.F.P.B. complaint. No letter from a compliance department, management, or any other department which addresses complaints. No letter or anything addressing my concerns with their collector and his rogue tactics and multiple willful violations of the F.D.C.P.A. NOTHING! I did get an opportunity to give feedback on the response through my previous complaint but I feel that is inadequate and will accomplish nothing in regards to my complaint of what IC Systems has done. I am filing this complaint because I want them to address my concerns about their multiple violations on that initial collections call on XX/XX/XXXX. They don't get to simply sidestep my complaint by saying they will send a response to me directly because they can't " confirm '' who wrote this complaint and never actually do it. I am submitting this complaint because IC systems has continued to this point in breaking the law and obviously treating me like I am unimportant or just somebody they can just ignore. If I get another half-baked response from them saying they will " send me a response directly because they can't confirm who filed this complaint '' and then never do so I will be forced to sue them.

I told her she needed to send proof of the debt. She told me they don't have to, if I want it, I needed to send my information to them in writing, but because I didn't send it to them in XXXX or XXXX, that they don't have to prove anything and it's my debt. I tried to dispute again with the Credit Bureau, but there is not enough room in the dispute form to explain the situation, so they denied the dispute and said it was FCC compliant.

XX/XX/2019 a collection company mailed a collection notice to our old business address stating our utility company had sent our account to collections for {$630.00}. I assumed this must be some sort of mistake and had planned to send them a letter back disputing the debt. Today I get a notification that my credit had changed. I just paid off my one of my credit cards 2 days ago and had expected a small change but an increase. Much to my surprise when I log in I see my credit has plummeted by 93 points on one and 69 points on another and FICO 's dropped by 40 points. XXXX won't do anything about it. We moved out of our old location 2 years ago. We have not received one notification, one e-mail, no certified mail, no phone calls nothing about there being a remaining balance. In fact at the time we cancelled our account we we had overpaid because we had a deposit on the account. We were told by XXXX staff that if the deposit didn't cover our final bill we would be sent documentation to support that. If it did, nothing else needed to be done. We never heard anything else from them until I received this collection letter a couple of weeks ago. I have AVIDLY been working to get my credit to where it needs to be bringing my score up nearly 200 pts in the last 18 months. It would be stupid to let a {$630.00} balance ruin what I have worked so hard. If it was valid and the documentation supported it I would have paid it. Honestly, I probably would have paid it just to make sure something like this did happen. One other point about this I am uncertain of. The damage to my credit is being done by an " Account '' being added as a closed account that was closed and placed for collection for the amount of {$410.00}. It says the account was closed XX/XX/2019 which differs from the collection notice. We had two bays at my previous location which incurred 2 different utility bills every month so I am curious if there is going to be a second hit if this collection notice for {$630.00} is one unit and the {$410.00} is another unit. I will upload the collection letter and the information about the closed account. The accounts shows 5 years of history yet there is no payment history, not high balance, no monthly payment, no late payment info, no worst payment status. Nothing, just closed with a balance of {$410.00}. You will also notice the documents are being mailed to our old address at XXXX XXXX XXXX. We setup mail forwarding for 6 months after moving. Additionally we only moved a 1/2 mile down the road to a bigger location. We had the same mailman and as a result he would give us our mail even if it was mailed to the wrong location. So regardless they had 6 months to send notification of the balance and we would have definitely received it. They also had my e-mail address on file and could have send notification that way as well. Lastly, I have lived in the same house the entire time, where I also could have been mailed something. So to be clear I am disputing the collection charge for {$630.00} and the " closed account '' with a balance of {$410.00} that is harming my credit.

I had to use the services of XXXX and their baiid machines. After I recieved notice from the state of Illinois that I could have the device removed I contacted XXXX and I set up the device removal and I paid my administrative closing fee to close my account. Later thay evening I found someone who did mobile removal of devices and I paid them to come remove the device and opted to use them instead of waiting another 2 or 3 days until my removal was scheduled. Nothing states that I couldn't do this and was ready to get the device removed. The guy said I would be receiving an email with my reciept and a return label to send them back their device. This was on XX/XX/XXXX. The same day I paid my closing fee. I hadn't heard anything by XX/XX/XXXX so I decided I'd log into to their website and message them and ask about my reciept for removal and the return label. An agent of theirs closed the conversation without even sending any response, this was after I recieved the notification the message had been read. I then sent the message again and got an automated response stating no agents were available so I left another message stating someone needed to call or contact me about the return label and reciept. I didn't ever hear anything until I recieved a notice of an almost XXXX dollar. They originally claimed this was for using their services and they were somehow unaware the device had been removed from my vehicle. This is all after I settled my last bill and closed my account. They kept billing me for services after I closed an account and hadn't been using their services. Upon them learning that my device has vern removed they stated the charge was for using an alternative removal method and then said it's because of a non returned equipment. They just sent me the return box a few weeks ago but have told them I want the bill wiped out because I'm not paying for their own negligence and failure to send the label i asked about and got ignored and was comepletely disregarded vby one of their agents. I am.not paying them a XXXX because they have already done their fair share of shady practices to extort extra money put of me and I have proof of this. They would schedule my maintenance o. XXXX when they know the shop I used was closed on XXXX. I even reached put to the shop the following Monday and they never recieved any work order for my vehicle so the company was lying XXXX atkeast 2 occasions saying I was scheduled on Fridays and when I'd go the shop would be closed. That resulted in me getting locked out of my vehicle which then requires a lockout fee of around XXXX bucks to be able to drive again. I caught then redhadned by asking the shop about work orders before talking to XXXX. I provided proof of this experience for my disputes as well and XXXX is failing to see my account was closed on XX/XX/XXXX when I paid my closing fee and had the device removed. They also fail to acknowledge the shady practices used by the company to extort additional fees and that the charges all came after I had closed my account and was no longer a customer using their services.

For months this company has been reporting inaccurate, unverifiable erroneous things on my credit report and ruining my credit score and I am sick of it. This company has ruined my credit score so bad I got denied a loan for my house!! Now I can not provide for my family because of these derogatory marks. These medical bills and other derogatory collection accounts listed on my credit report, are incorrect and NOT mine. Simply verifying that someone used my name, social security number and/or address is insufficient to confirm that I am the person in question and owe this debt. The court has ruled that in Hinkle v. Midland Credit Management , Inc., that during a dispute and subsequent investigation with the original creditor, collector or a credit bureau, that the original creditor or collector, must provide account-level documentation that would hold up when presented to a jury. That means an original contract or similar proof. To this end, I am demanding an itemized bill to include but not limited to : The diagnosis and procedure performed that I am being billed for, Dates of said procedure, Cost of any medication you may have provided, Cost of any medical devices you may have provided, Office Visits, Consultations, Hospital Visits, Misc. As I am not the person who owes this bill, I am aware that providing the information requested may lead to third party disclosure : a HIPAA violation. That would be your problem and not mines, as a consumer. And per the FCRA and FCPA, I am not required to complete a police report since the burden to prove the debt is on you. In addition, a provision of the FACTA regulations is the Notice of Negative Information provision, covered in section 623 ( A ) ( 7 ). I have never received notification that this had been or was going to be listed with a credit reporting agency. FACTA ( Fair and Accurate Credit Transactions Act ) requires creditors, including doctors and hospitals, to give the consumer a warning notice, so the matter can be addressed before a negative item such as this is reported in error. I am also requesting a copy of your in-house procedures that enable you to avoid the problems that lead to improper identification of consumers and the subsequent misreporting to the credit bureaus. In lieu of supplying the information Im demanding, you can simply stop all collection activity, including but not limited to removing this item from all credit bureaus to which it has been reported. If this is not done within 30 days of receipt of this letter, I will proceed to exercise all my legal rights, including litigation, to protect my good name. A response with a bill is NOT evidence of proof that the debt is mine. Anyone can open an account under my name for which a bill is produced, but that doesn't mean it was actually me or that the debt is actually mine. I need real evidence. This evidence consists of a contract from the original creditor or some agreement bearing MY written signature agreeing to pay the debt. In the absence of this evidence I ask you to please remove this account from my credit report.

I am writing to bring to your attention the matter of a debt validation letter sent to IC System on XX/XX/2023 pursuant to the requirements set forth under 15 USC 1682 ( g ). Unfortunately, despite the passage of a considerable amount of time, I have yet to receive the requested documentation as mandated by law. On XX/XX/2023, I sent a debt validation letter to IC System requesting that they validate the debt they reported on my credit report. I included all relevant details, such as the account number and the amount in question. According to the FDCPA, they are required to respond within 30 days of receiving the letter.This letter was intended to assert my rights as a consumer under the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act ( FDCPA ) and to request the necessary documentation to validate the legitimacy and accuracy of the debt in question. As per 15 USC 1682 ( g ), a debt collector is obligated to provide the requested information within 30 days of receiving such a request. However, it has now been over 30 days since the date of the letter, and I have not received any response or documentation from IC System. This failure to provide the requested information not only violates my rights as a consumer under federal law but also raises concerns about the validity and legitimacy of the debt they are attempting to collect. I believe it is important for the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau to be aware of this situation. The non-compliance of IC System with the requirements of 15 USC 1682 ( g ) not only undermines the protections afforded to consumers but also indicates a potential violation of the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act. Furthermore, I have not granted I C System authorization to acquire my private, confidential, and sensitive data and submit it under my name to the consumer reporting agencies but it seems that my identity has been misappropriated and utilized in a hostile way by their company. For this reason, they have also violated the Privacy of Consumer Financial Information Rule of the Gramm Leach Bliley Act by sharing my non-public personal information with non-affiliated third parties without providing me with a notice that complies with 15 USC 6803 and also failing to give me the opportunity to opt-out as required by 15 USC 6802. I kindly request that the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau investigate this matter and take appropriate action to ensure IC System 's compliance with federal consumer protection laws. It is crucial that debt collectors adhere to the guidelines set forth in the FDCPA to protect consumers ' rights and prevent any potential abusive or unfair practices by reporting false negative/delinquent items that are a defamation of character, ruining my reputation, and my overall creditworthiness. Thank you for your attention to this matter. I trust that the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau will take the appropriate steps to address this issue and uphold the rights and protections of consumers. I look forward to receiving a response from your office regarding the investigation 's progress.

Ic systems Collection agency, Violated the fair debit collection practice act as well as the fair credit reporting act. Violation number one : Section 807 false or misleading representation A debt collector may not use any false, deceptive, or misleading representation or means in correction with the collection of any debt. Without limiting the general application of the foregoing, the following conduct is a violation of this section ( 10 ) : The use of any false representation or deceptive means to collect or attempt to collect any debt or to obtain information concerning a consumer. I called this collection agency who has already previously been notified by the three major credit for an agencies that this collection account what is the result of identity theft. I was amazed when I spoke to the representative XXXX XXXX. I notify this representative that I have a victim of identity theft and that his company has had several accounts in their system that have been removed for identity theft. I did notified him that this account popped on my credit report without any prior notification via mail, telephone call, or email. Ive been instructed him that I would like to have these accounts removed due to identity theft. XXXX XXXX XXXX told me that in order to have these accounts investigated, I would have to pay a fee of {$270.00} to another company called XXXX XXXX in order to have this account investigated and removed from my report. Me being a victim of identity theft has taught me to be very knowledgeable when dealing with fraudulent accounts. Enclosed is a recording of the phone conversation between me and the representative for IC systems. The recording was taken from a Texas phone number which falls under a one party state rule when pertaining to the laws of recording. Therefore, Permission was not needed since one party ( IC Systems ) was recording already. No person should have to pay to have an account removed under identity theft from a collection agency. This is a serious violation and requires serious attention. This means that if a consumer disputes an account with a credit reporting agency, and follows the guidelines correctly, in the collection and see the sides that they will not investigate but, report the account as accurate? This is a tactic used to force people to call the collection Agency so that they may manipulate the consumer into paying to have a wasnt account removed from their credit report. This violation falls Under section 621. Administrative enforcement [ 15 USC section 1681s ]. ( 2 ). Penalties. ( A ) knowing violations. Except as otherwise provided by subtitle B of the consumer financial protection act of 2010, in the event of a known violation which constitutes a pattern or practice of violations of this title, the federal trade commission may commit a civil action to recover a civil penalty in a District Court of the United States against any person that vio lates this title. In such action search person shall be liable for a civil penalty Im not more than {$2500.00} per violation.

Below is my statement send to the FCC on XX/XX/XXXX that XXXX have yet to respond to ; also the XXXX and his debt XXXX have been falsifying the due date of the debt in their statement by moving up the due date every month. Lastly, my mane is XXXX XXXX XXXX I am a XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX ) ; it has become exhausting to keep requesting that XXXX and/or all other parties to stop referring to me as XXXX XXXX Ref : FCC ticket ( # XXXX ) I understand that the main aim of the FCC is to foster communication between consumers and companies, but there comes a point when someone needs to intervene and provide assistance. XXXX appears uninterested in addressing my concerns, as their staff simply keeps recycling earlier responses in an effort to tire me out. Moreover, despite my multiple corrections, employees at the Verizon executive office continue to address me as XXXX XXXX even though I am a woman ( cisgender, born female ). This type of insensitivity played a role in my decision to file an initial discrimination complaint because an employee named XXXX mocked my name and derisively referred to me as a " low-class person. '' In their response, XXXX repeatedly emphasized the credits they had issued for my account. However, these credits only rectified charges that should never have been levied in the first place. Regarding international pass fees, I informed XXXX back in XX/XX/XXXX that I had no intention of using their wireless network during my travels, and their international pass charges do not include an opt-out feature. Consequently, when they charged me again in XX/XX/XXXX and tried to portray this as an act of generosity, I found it preposterous. Notably, XXXX appears to pick and choose which inquiries they wish to address. They have not explained why they sold my account to a collections agency before issuing the final bill or responded to concerns about discrepancies between the store 's listed device prices and what I was charged. Furthermore, the sales representative refused to sell me the device outright and pressured me into accepting a lease agreement. The more I think about it, the more convinced I become that this approach is designed to steer and trapped customers in a XXXX lease. XXXX is well aware that they billed me for two phone lines even though only one device was delivered ; neglected to apply trade-in credit for seven months ( and currently refuse to apply the remaining balance to my final bill ) ; charged me repeatedly for international passes without an opt-out option ; and consistently failed to honor the 15 % discount advertised to my employer. Despite all this, the company seems to believe they are justified in mistreating customers for 36 months by forcefully denying them device ownership and directing them into lease agreements. I believe I have been more than fair in my requests by asking XXXX for trade-in credit and an itemized final bill that breaks down device charges and service fees. Regrettably, their executive office staff has exhibited dishonesty in their responses to the FCC.

I C Systems is in violation of the HIPPA laws. I have sent multiple letters on XX/XX/XXXX ; XX/XX/XXXX ; XX/XX/XXXX, asking this company to verify this account and I have not recieved a satisfactory response.

Please be advised that this is not a refusal to pay the debt, but a notice sent pursuant to the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act, 1 : USC 1692g Sec 809 ( b ) that your claim that I owe you money is disputed, and validation is requested. Under the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act, I have the right to request validation of the debt you say I owe you.

In XXXX, I received a solicitation for XXXX XXXX XXXX from XXXX. The solicitation offered a " discounted '' rate for a set number of treatments. I purchased a set number of lawn fertilization services from XXXX # XXXX. I submitted payment in full for the specific services requested. I did not request or authorize any ongoing service beyond the package that I had purchased. Nothing on the solicitation form indicated that I was signing up for ongoing service or automatic billing. I explicitly did not want ongoing service. Without my knowledge or authorization, XXXX saved my credit card information and in XXXX they started charging my card repeatedly for service that I did not request or authorize. The unauthorized charge was roughly double the rate from the XXXX solicitation. When I discovered that XXXX had been charging my credit card, I contacted their customer service immediately. The agent agreed that I had not authorized the service, and assured me they would reverse the charges. The credit did not come. After giving them time to rectify the issue, I eventually contacted my credit card company to dispute the charges. My credit card company investigated and reversed the charges. I thought that the matter was settled, until XX/XX/XXXX when I received a collection notice from " IC System, XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX MN XXXX, XXXX '' The collection notice on behalf of XXXX # XXXX was in the amount of {$110.00}. I immediately wrote to IC System using their included form, and I mailed it back informing them that the debt was not valid and that I had not authorized these charges or services from XXXX. According to my understanding of the law, they should have stopped trying to collect the debt without sending me proof of the validity of the debt. I also called XXXX customer service to inform them that I had been sent to collections over a debt that I don't owe. I spoke to a customer service representative who informed me that she could see the notes on the account, but she needed to have a manager call me back to reverse the charge. She advised that someone would call back in 24-48 hours. Nobody ever called. It is not possible to reach a local representative, and it is also not possible to be transferred directly to a supervisor. On XX/XX/XXXX, I received a second collection notice from IC System for the same debt. This notice had a bold notice " VALID COLLECTION '' across the top. It offered no proof of the validity of the debt. I believe this notice was in violation of the law, as I had already disputed the validity of the debt with IC Systems, and they should have stopped collections until they could issue proof that I had authorized these charges. Also, on XX/XX/XXXX, I again contacted XXXX customer service at XXXX. Despite the number being a local number, it routes to a call center somewhere unknown. Again, I was told that a manager needs to call me back, but it is more than 24 hours later and no manager has called.

I was given a XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX ) from XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX and was put on a plan to pay monthly with the understanding that I wouldn't own the equipment until I had paid a specific dollar amount. My insurance company, XXXX, was also billed and paid for a portion of the equipment. I did pay monthly for a long period of time until the manufacturer XXXX XXXX SENT OUT A RECALL NOTICE stating the equipment was found to be a CARCINOGEN risk and that it had to be returned to my medical provider. Within 3 weeks of that notice I took the equipment back to the medical office that gave it to me, with every accessory that came with it and in the original carrying case. I also provided them a copy of one of the recall notices that I got from XXXX XXXX and a copy of the XXXX XXXX website showing the specific model that I was given. I asked for someone to confirm that my billing would stop and was told that there was nobody available at that time so I instructed the girl at the front desk to discontinue billing me and to discontinue billing my insurance company and I left the recalled equipment in their office. The billing continued to accrue for several months coming to a balance of {$320.00}. I called their office and requested that they cease and desist billing me for a recalled piece of equipment that was potentially cancer causing, and that I had returned to them. When that didn't happen I went INTO their office and told a different receptionist at the front desk to get with whomever was handling insurance billing and stop the billing. She told me that she was the only person in the office besides the doctor, who was with a patient, and made a rude comment about Covid. They continued the billing and then sent my account to a collection agency for the {$320.00}. I have disputed it 4 times with XXXX and both myself and XXXX have provided them with the recall documentation from the manufacturer to verify I didn't just return it and stop paying randomly. The collection agency, XXXX XXXX, continues to respond to the credit bureaus that the debt is owed. I have called, written, e-mailed, disputed and now I am reaching out to CFPB to intervene. I have all the evidence of the recall of the machine, and the equipment was connected to my internet and supposedly reporting until I returned it. They can verify if/when it was being used. Please assist me in getting this erroneous debt off of my credit and that I am treated fairly!!!! On the internet you can SEE THAT IT WAS RECALLED AND DANGEROUS you can see XXXX REVIEWS THAT STATE OTHERS ARE HAVING THE SAME ISSUES WITH THE ORIGINAL MEDICAL OFFICE. I don't know what else to do to get help and get this removed from my credit reports. I have provided and requested documentation for any sort of verification. I didn't sign anything at the doctors office and they didn't provide me with a receipt when I returned the equipment. They continued to fraudulently bill my credit card AND DEFRAUD MY INSURANCE COMPANY.

AS OF MY XX/XX/2022 COMPLAINT, I got a notification about my credit report. INCOMPLETE ACCOUNT NUMBER FOR IC SYSTEM- XXXX INCOMPLETE ACCOUNT NUMBER FOR XXXX XXXX XXXX- XXXX In the documents uploaded below you will see XX/XX/2022 updated credit report. One from XXXX XXXX and the other from XXXX. I have still not heard from either company. However XXXX sent me an email stating that the company has verified the accounts with them and they are accurate. In my letter to XXXX I requested to be notified by mail as I had done for them, not to be replied to on a service website. 1. There are still dates that are conflicting. 2. They have not given ME verification 3. They have not provided me the procedure in which they have investigated it and who did the investigating. At this point, I have been denied jobs, I had to have my credit report run just so that I can be my fathers over-seer ( POA ) for the VA. They have given a certain amount of time to get this situation rectified or they may dismiss me to look over him. This is very troubling because I know for a fact I NEVER SIGNED OR EVEN UNDERSTAND THESE ACCOUNTS. They are not complying with the federal laws that I stated in the last complaint. This is troubling due to the fact my father served 24 years in the military and Im the only one that is taking care of him and I am facing loosing my responsibility that was given to me because of these two companies. I have attempted to apply for two things of which of course I was denied, in hopes to build my credit. I am desperately pleading for your help, as I attempt to just maintain my life and well being of my father.

How can trust this company to validate my information when their Information is not consistent for their own company.

The XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX collection first appeared on my credit report in XX/XX/XXXX by XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX. I immediately contacted the phone number listed on the report. I was informed that the account was opened in my name in XXXX, XXXX in XX/XX/XXXX. I lived in XXXX, XXXX at the time and was in the process of relocating to California due to military reassignment. I advised the customer service representative that I did not open or authorize the opening of said account. I asked the representative what documentation was used to determine I was the individual requesting the account. She said accounts opened online at that time requested no proof of identity. She explained that I could pay the balance in full with her but there was nothing else she could do. I hung up and drove to an XXXX XXXX XXXX store location in XXXX California. The representative at the store had no record of an account in my name using my Oklahoma drivers license. He advised me to contact the fraud department. I called the XXXX XXXX XXXX fraud number but it only included an automated message which provided no real help or resolution to my problem. I disputed the collection and it was removed from my credit report in XX/XX/XXXX. XXXX again added the collection to my credit report in XX/XX/XXXX. I reached out again and was emailed a fraud packet on XX/XX/XXXX requesting proof of residency between XXXX and XX/XX/XXXX. I returned the complete fraud packet on XX/XX/XXXX, including all requested information and supporting documentation such as my California leasing agreement and utility bills. My fraud claim was denied by XXXX citing there was not enough evidence to support my claim. I again filed a dispute and the collection was removed from my credit report in XX/XX/XXXX. On XX/XX/XXXX IC Systems XXXX XXXX added the collection to my credit report. I called the listed number and was informed that they simply report and collect debts. I was told to file another fraud claim and hope the issue gets resolved. I asked for all information associated with the account to include the account number, service address, phone number, and email address listed in the file. I called XXXX XXXX XXXX, provided this information in an attempt to determine who could have opened this account. They were unable to help me because I could not provide the account pin, security answer, or answer the phone number listed on the account. I asked to speak with someone in the fraud department and was disconnect from the call. No one ever called me back. I then filed a formal Identity Theft Police Report in XXXX XXXX XXXX which was accepted under the Reference XXXX. I am awaiting a follow up to this report, but have grown tired of simply disputing this collection annually. I am seeking to have this error remedied and pursue legal action against AT & T for aiding fraudulent activity in my name as well as the creditors for harassment, slander, intimidation, and violations of the Fair Credit Reporting Act.

On XX/XX/2018, I visited XXXX Hospital 's ER in XXXX, TN ( a public trust hospital system and an in-network provider for my insurance policies ), and was subsequently billed by XXXX XXXXXXXX XXXX, XXXX, ( XXXX XXXX, XXXX - treating physician ) for medical treatment by an ER physician. I currently have two health insurance policies. XXXX XXXXXXXX XXXX, XXXX, billed for {$1100.00} ( 1000 % of local pricing for ER care ). Both policies paid, {$180.00} each or {$360.00} total. This left a bill of {$810.00}. I was not billed until over 90 days from treatment date making it look as if I am late with payment. Although it seems outrageously unfair for such high billing and the use of balance billing for payment, so far all is sadly legal. What I found after paying XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX, they used the government entity name of " XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, '' when I actually paid " XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX, '' through their collection team, " IC System '' for the remaining amount of {$810.00}. What I have found is that the business, " XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX, '' uses fraudulent business dealings. They sell these debts ( negotiating ) to other businesses before you've received your first billing. I do not know if these businesses are owned/in-network by the XXXX XXXX or simply sold to other collection agencies multiple times. You as a patient pay the bill, yet the owners of " XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX, '' again resell the bill over and over, layering the transaction. I currently get local number phone calls coming from the XXXX demanding payment for this bill ( again ) with no recognition of the confirmation number given, the same account number, or receipt by my state issued card by prior debt collectors. I do know that " XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX, '' has XXXX XXXX, XXXX, as its president. He also is in the XXXX for several other collection-type entities such as, " XXXX, '' " XXXX, '' and " XXXX and XXXX XXXX XXXX. '' It seems that this company is not interested in actual accounting practices for billing but possibly entering into fraud by layering the collection process with various companies to multiple bill for single debt. It is fraud to use the City of XXXX & XXXX Co 's trust of XXXX XXXX Hospital as the collection name. I phoned XXXX billing department and found that this debt I paid for {$810.00} is entirely " XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX '' and through my credit card & matching EOB 's, was paid in full. These collection companies have threatened to ruin my credit rating due to their claiming it is an unpaid medical debt. By switching company names over and over, it can seem you never paid this debt for they can claim that they never received the payment. This seems to be the strategy to gain multiple payments from unsuspecting patients. " XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX '' takes XXXX and XXXX patients ( XXXX government payment for medical bills ), yet these very patients can be ruined by unscrupulous billing practices from companies like, " XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX.

I am submitting a formal complaint against I.C. System, Inc., a debt collection agency, and XXXX, the credit reporting agency. The issue stems from a modem/router combo that I returned on time to AT & T U-Verse in early XXXX. Unfortunately, I was not credited for the return, leading to a charge of {$450.00} for the equipment. This debt was subsequently sold, and a collections agency named XXXX pursued me through the credit reporting agency XXXX. I disputed the collection with XXXX, and they conducted a thorough investigation, ultimately ruling in my favor by declaring the collection invalid. However, my struggle did not end there. I.C. System, Inc., yet another debt collection agency, opened a collections account with XXXX on XX/XX/XXXX. Frustratingly, I have made XXXX attempts to dispute this collection with XXXX, both through online channels and over the phone, but their responses were not helpful at all. The first time I raised the dispute, XXXX got back to me within a few days, only to offer an unsatisfactory resolution. The second attempt was even worse, with a response received in less than XXXX hours that did not address the issue adequately. The third time around, the outcome remained unchanged, leaving me extremely dissatisfied. I strongly believe that my rights under various XXXX Codes have been violated in this situation. For instance, as per 15 USC 1681s2 ( A ) ( 1 ) A, no person or agency should provide inaccurate information to a consumer reporting agency, which seems to have happened with I.C. System, Inc. 's actions. Additionally, 15 USC 1681c ( a ) ( 5 ) explicitly states that consumer reporting agencies like XXXX should not include any adverse item of information in a consumer report without proper authorization, which I did not XXXX. I.C. System, Inc. and XXXX have been uncooperative, making it incredibly challenging for me to resolve this matter, despite the previous ruling by XXXX in my favor. I am now filing a complaint with the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau to address these grievances and seek a fair resolution. 15 U.S. Code 1681s2 ( A ) ( 1 ) A states " A person shall not furnish any information relating to a consumer to any consumer reporting agency if the person knows or has reasonable cause to believe that the information is inaccurate. 15 U.S. Code 1681e states '' Every consumer reporting agency shall maintain reasonable procedures designed to avoid violations of section 1681c of this title and to limit the furnishing of consumer reports to the purposes listed under section 1681b of this title. XXXX is not maintaining reasonable procedures. Also, 12 CFR 1016.7 states that " A consumer may exercise the right to opt out at any time. '' I am opting out of your reporting services. Please investigate this matter and take the necessary actions to ensure that my rights are protected and that the inaccurately reported collection is removed from my credit report promptly.

XXXX XXXX, XXXX I have been plagued by the mistakes of XXXX going back to XXXX and most likely prior to that time. I have attached a letter I wrote to them back to XXXX which was my third request to them pointing out their mistakes and never received a replies to any of my letters. I cut the service in XXXX XXXX and went to XXXX XXXX and XXXX continued to bill me for three more months. I have asked for an accounting of my account and never received this. They sent a collection agency after me and I told them this would not be paid as XXXX actually owes me money. I travel frequently for work and can be gone for months at a time and really just did not have time to deal with a problem of {$130.00} dollars. They put a collection on my credit report back in XXXX and just recently they assigned another collection agency who filed a collection on the same amount driving down my credit score down once again. If you look at my credit these people are the only ones I have ever had an issue with. I am requesting a complete investigation of my account as I believe the root cause is somewhere along the line they changed the long distance telephone service to non-long distance and every time a call was made long distance charges were being assessed ( who would sign up for that??? ). I had an automatic payment set up, however my XXXX XXXX who is living at the property would pay the additional amount out of funds I was giving her. When I inquired on this on XXXX XXXX XXXX, I spent hours on the phone and finally was given to somebody in the back office who discovered the problem and said this could take months to fix, however was supposed to change over the service at that time back to long distance. Again thinking this was taken care of, I was notified again the service was shut off?? Good grief what does it take to get something fixed and why was this so complicated? At that point I was frustrated and canceled the service going with XXXX XXXX for the service provider in XXXX XXXX and XXXX continued to bill me for another three months. As you can see they owe me money. In addition, I told them all communications should come to me at my residence in PA and that never happened as well. I am requesting a complete audit of my account and I really think this goes back to XXXX when I relocated. I want whatever refund is due back to me and my credit cleared. I also believe because of the damage this has done to my credit I should be compensated accordingly. If not, I will go to the media and every agency out there to continue to have this fixed. I will not go away as this needs to be resolved once and for all as it is unbelievable the service that is provided with calls being offshored and I really think they just want you to give up and pay for their mistakes. The collection agency is IC System XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX MN XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX Account NO XXXX IC System reference NO XXXX Sincerely, XXXX XXXX

I received a letter in the mail from a company called IC Systems, asking me if I would like to accept an offer settlement for a debt I do not owe or know anything about. This debt can not possibly be mine as it states the original creditor is XXXX. I currently have an account with XXXX and have been a loyal customer for XXXX years. How can I have a collection account and have my service on at the same time? I have already submitted an ID theft/ Fraud report because someone has been attempting to obtain credit in my name. Under the XXXX XXXX Collections Practices XXXX a debt collector is to provide proof and validation that this debt even exists. You did not do that. Because it doesnt. I am demanding you provide a copy of the original contract signed by me and prove that is my real signature, a full accounting ledger of this debt, and proof that I even owe this debt. You will not be able to do that. 15 USC 1692b and c states that a debt collector must cease all communications and collection efforts once notice is received. This is your notice. 15 USC 1692g states a 30 day notice must be given to a consumer to dispute the validity of a debt. I never received a notice. You placed this on my credit report to be malicious and as a scare tactic. You are attempting to put me under duress and force me to pay this debt. I have filed a Fraud report with the Federal Trade Commission, if IC Systems had followed the law and taken the proper precautions before reporting this to the major credit bureaus, you would know that. Under 15 USC 1681 all fraudulent accounts reported by a consumer that furnishes a fraud report, are to be removed within four days. XXXX, XXXX and XXXX have been put on notice already. Because this so called company failed to complete their due diligence you are in violation of these rights protected by federal law. XXXX CFR XXXX gives the consumer the right to opt out under the Fair Credit Reporting Act, before any creditor places an item on their credit report. Each company is to give a 30 day notice to the consumer and offer this chance. IC Systems has also failed to do this. The Privacy Act of 1974 clearly states that written notice and consent must be given to all consumers before any private and personal information is to be shared from one agency to another agency. Once again IC Systems has failed to do this. Under 18 USC 8, all debt is alleged debt. WE as consumer do not owe any debt and all debt are the obligations of US govt. IC Systems has shown Willful Non-Compliance and disregard to all federal laws. I am demanding that you remove all erroneous, fraudulent, fake tradelines from all credit bureaus within 4 days of receiving this notice and pay a penalty for this violation. XXXX and XXXX were quick to add this tradeline to my report without doing any research, yet take their time or ignore my Fraud reports sent to them. I will be pursuing legal action against these entities.

XXXX or XX/XX/XXXX I went to a XXXX XXXX store to take inquire about changing my services from XXXX to XXXX XXXX and taking advantage of their promotion that they would pay off the existing phone bill at XXXX. There were 3 young men at the counter trying to help me. While one was trying to verify my information, the other went into the back room and got SIM cards. The third man was getting a code off my current phone to unlock the phone. When the third man discovered he was unable to unlock my phone. He tried to convince me to purchase a new {$1300.00} XXXX which I did not want to do. I called XXXX and they told me I would have to pay off the existing phone balance before they gave me a code to unlock the phone. This was opposite from what XXXX promotion was about. I didn't not have those funds to do it, so I told the 3 men to cancel everything. XXXX ended up matching the same monthly promotion as XXXX. The man said he would cancel out the account. I walked out of the store. I kept my account with XXXX. Then in the fall of XXXX I get a {$750.00} collection in the mail from a collection agency. I called them and told them what I explained above. They said they would reach back to XXXX. I called XXXX and they told me I had to go into the store and talk to the manager. I went into the store and the manager said he couldn't do anything, and I would have to call XXXX customer service. I called XXXX XXXX customer service and they said they would investigate it. 30 days later the collection was removed from my credit report and I heard nothing from XXXX. Then on XX/XX/XXXX I get a collection agency sending me mail that was trying to collect on the same amount. I called them and explained the same thing above. This is IC Systems, and they still have the account. I disputed it with them over the phone and told them I never used the services and this was false information. They said they would investigate it. They placed it onto my credit report and then mailed me a letter saying they verified it and sent a final bill statement from XXXX. That end showed I never used their services. I called the collection agency back and disputed it again, they then tried to offer my a settlement to pay the bill. I told them I didn't use the account and I wasn't going to pay for anything I didn't use. I called XXXX XXXX again and talked to another person who told me it could take up to 2 weeks for them to investigate and she would call me back on XX/XX/XXXX. She never called back. I called XXXX on XX/XX/XXXX and the person I spoke with told me that I would have to call the collection agency. I told her they were not going to do anything, they wouldn't take dispute and they want me to pay it. I told her I called before to XXXX XXXX and the person was suppose to call me back on XX/XX/XXXX and they never did. I requested to speak with a manager. I was put on hold for 30 minutes waiting for a manager.

We dropped XXXX as our mobile provider in late XX/XX/2019. (XXXX account XXXX, I.C. System Ref. No: XXXX.) We returned all 5 leased phones, all of which XXXX acknowledges receiving. The 3rd from last bill (XX/XX/XXXX – XX/XX/2019) was for $XXXX, prior to their receipt of the 5 phones. The 2nd from last bill (XX/XX/XXXX – XX/XX/2019) was for $XXXX with a credit of $XXXX, apparently for the returned phones. The last bill (XX/XX/XXXX – XX/XX/2019) was for $XXXX.I also received a check from XXXX, dated XX/XX/2019, for $XXXX which is apparently the reconciliation of the above amounts. I have participated in several chats with XXXX (for which I have transcripts) trying in vain to get an explanation for several hundred dollars in charges. On XX/XX/2019, I received an email from XXXX demanding immediate payment of $XXXX, this despite the last bill above stating "This is your final bill for wireless services" with a balance of $XXXX (copy attached). The XXXX email included:It's important that you resolve this immediately to prevent further collection action that may include:•  Your account being sent to an outside collection agency.•  Your account classified as "bad debt" with XXXX if the account remains unpaid at the collection agency.•  Your account reported to the three national credit bureaus as past due.One more chat with XXXX (XX/XX/2019) to inquire about this includes the following:XXXX XXXX. : As I check here that this charge of $XXXX on your account was your previous payment on XX/XX/XXXX that has been refunded on you back on your account .I verified that XXXX did indeed credit our Mastercard with that amount on XX/XX/2019. (The difference is presumably charging me interest which extrapolates to about 10.8%.) I immediately asked: "Why was this done and why was I not informed?" However, no explanation was provided. I was transferred to XXXX "finance team", but the only explanation I received was:XXXX : I do want to assist you with your concern. However, upon checking, there is a specific department handling the account. All payment or financial related concerns of this account must be handled by that dedicated team. It will be best if you contact them for assistance. You can reach them by calling this number XXXX to have your concern resolved at your satisfaction.You : Can I chat with them? I would like a record, please.XXXX : I am sorry but they do not operate via chat; over the phones only.You : And you can explain none of this?XXXX : I am really sorry; please do not feel that I am refusing to assist you because I will if only I have the right access. I am assuring you that if you contact them, they can answer your inquires.I subsequently received a letter from I.C. System, a collection agency, on XX/XX/XXXX saying that I owed $XXXX and have 30 days to respond. (Their letter is datedXX/XX/2019, so I assume the 30 days ends on XX/XX/XXXX.)

I went to XXXX XXXX located on XXXX XXXX to XXXX XXXX XXXX. XXXX, XXXX XXXX XXXX, inquiring about a tooth extraction. After being quoted a price that I felt was too high, I told the account specialists that I would go to a place less expensive. She then proceeded to tell me that I actually had credit owed to me from my previous porcelain crown procedure with XXXX XXXX, that would cover the cost. So natural I agreed to the tooth extraction since I wouldnt owe money. After the procedure was complete I double checked with the lady about a bill and she told me everything was covered. I believed her and left. Some weeks later I received a call and a voicemail was left from the same account specialists stating that she apologize because she had misinformed me. She stated, the credit she told me about could only be used at the XXXX XXXX location that I had the porcelain crown procedure done at and that I needed to come in and make a payment. In my mind that didnt make since because it was the same company. So I refused to pay. I had moved prior to the tooth extraction so I never received a bill. I get emails from XXXX but I never received an email about a bill. Some years went by and last year I notice that a collection was on my credit report with XXXX XXXX being the original creditor {$390.00}. Im not sure if this amount is after my insurance paid its portion. That will need to be investigated also. So I reached out to them by going to the location that I had the tooth extraction. There is a new account specialists named XXXX XXXX that I spoke to. She was professional and helpful. XXXX XXXX pulled up my account and agreed that I owed nothing because the credit that I had was applied to my tooth extraction. Then I explained the situation more to her so she investigated the account a little deeper and saw the problem. Then miss XXXX informed me that I was told wrong twice. She said that the credit was not owed back to me and it wasnt a credit that I could use at the location of my porcelain cap procedure, but instead it was owed back to my insurance company. My heart dropped upon hearing this. She stated bills had been sent out. I explained I had moved prior to the tooth extraction and any bills that were sent were never forwarded to me. I pleaded with her since Im technically the victim here of misinformation or a bait and switch move, could she allow me to pay the bill right now and then remove me from collections. She asked her XXXX XXXX and the XXXX told her, no she will not have it removed if I should pay the bill. I have recorded voicemails from the company admitting to misinforming me and mishandling the funds. I do not have a date because I didnt receive any paper work, letters or no receipts because I was told I owed nothing XXXX she not be allowed to keep this on my credit file. No professional company would, in my opinion.

Per the FCRA, I am a federally protected consumer. According to the law, consumer reporting agencies are to exercise their grave responsibilities with fairness, impartiality, and a respect for the consumers right to privacy. XXXX is classified as a consumer reporting agency, and I by definition am the Consumer. 15 U.S Code 1681 clearly states that I have a right to privacy. It also states the consumer reporting agencies can NOT furnish an account without my written instructions. XXXX is in direct violation of the law and will be held responsible/liable for damages pursuant to 15 U.S Code 1681n. I am making this complaint against XXXX. SYSTEM, INC, for committing identity theft. I have never given I.C. SYSTEM, INC, any permission to use any of my identifying information to commit mail fraud by contacting me about an alleged debt they claim I owe. I am aware that in accordance with Article 9, the assignment of a defaulted note is illegal. Both the assignee and the assigned are both liable for violations under 15 U.S. Code 1692e ( 12 ). I have not validated any alleged debt with I.C. SYSTEM, INC and my failure to dispute the validity of these alleged debts shall not be construed as an admission of liability. As of XX/XX/2023, I have not received any documentary evidence, such as a trilateral contract, giving XXXX. SYSTEM, INC any right to collect on this alleged debt. I have never received any documentation requesting validation from I.C. SYSTEM, INC, before they committed multiple violations under the FCRA and the FDCPA by furnishing this alleged debt to my consumer report, including but not limited to 15 U.S. Code 1692d ( 4 ) which the FTC defines as debt parking. If I.C. SYSTEM, INC, can not provide me with proof such as a tracking number that they attempted to lawfully validate this alleged debt with me, the consumer, prior to furnishing it on my consumer report, this has been a fraudulently furnished account with forethought and malice as an attempt to bring harm to me and my financial reputation. I am legally refusing to pay this debt pursuant to 15 U.S. Code 1692c ( c ). I am demanding a cease and desist of all illegal activity, any communication and collection activity, of this and any alleged debts until XXXX. SYSTEM, INC, can provide me with sufficient documentary evidence that I have any legal obligation to pay them. If this documentary evidence can not be produced and I.C. SYSTEM, INC, continues its collection efforts, I will file for litigation for actual damages caused and I.C. SYSTEM, INC, will be held criminally liable for aggravated identity theft pursuant to 18 USC 1028A, extortion, theft by deception, securities fraud, and mail fraud. Upon the receipt of the documents herein and of this notice, you are hereby notified Pursuant XXXX XXXX. Your prompt attention and response are both requested and required.

I C Systems [ Their Address ] [ City, State, ZIP Code ] Subject : Unauthorized Access and Collection Account on My Consumer Report Dear I C Systems, I am writing to bring to your attention a matter of serious concern regarding the access and reporting of my consumer information by your agency. It has come to my knowledge that I C Systems has gained access to my consumer report without obtaining my written permission, which contravenes the provisions of the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), specifically under Section 604. Furthermore, a collection account has been added to my consumer file without my authorization, violating my rights as per Section 623 of the FCRA, which stipulates the responsibilities of furnishers of information to consumer reporting agencies. This unauthorized access and addition of a collection account constitute a major breach of my privacy and raise serious concerns about potential identity fraud, as outlined in Section 621 ( a ) ( 2 ) of the FCRA, which emphasizes the importance of protecting consumer privacy. In addition to federal law, I want to highlight relevant sections of South Carolina state law. Pursuant to South Carolina Code of Laws Section 37-5-108, it is unlawful to engage in unfair or deceptive acts or practices in the collection of debts, including any conduct that may jeopardize the privacy or welfare of a consumer. Furthermore, under South Carolina Code of Laws Section 37-5-104, creditors and debt collectors are required to provide accurate and complete information to consumer reporting agencies, ensuring the integrity of consumer credit reports. I would like to emphasize that, even in the case of a permissible purpose, consumer consent is a necessity, as per Section 604 ( a ) ( 3 ) ( F ) ( i ) ( I ) of the FCRA, which I have not provided in this instance. I firmly assert that this collection account is unverifiable due to the lack of my written consent for its presence on my credit report. I request that, within XXXX days of receiving this letter, I C Systems promptly removes this collection account from my consumer file and expunges all of my personal data from your database, as mandated by Section 611 ( a ) ( 1 ) ( A ) of the FCRA. Additionally, I expect I C Systems to communicate appropriately with the credit bureaus to ensure the deletion of this item from my credit report, as per Section 611 ( a ) ( 2 ) of the FCRA. Following the resolution of this matter, I request that all third-party communication and furnishing of my information cease immediately, in accordance with Section 604 ( a ) ( 3 ) ( F ) ( i ) ( II ) of the FCRA. Failure to comply with these requests within the stipulated XXXX-day timeframe will be considered willful noncompliance and may result in civil accountability for I C Systems, as provided under Section 616 of the FCRA. Done in good faith.

NOTICE OF Intent to FILE LAWSUIT To Whom It May Concern : This Letter shall serve as formal notice of my Intent to file a lawsuit against your company, due to your blatant and objectionable disregard of the law. The FDCPA states you must cease collection activity until you have produced verification of the alleged debt if so requested. As per the FTC, this includes reporting to the credit bureaus, which you obviously have done illegally. It is quite evident that no such proof of this alleged debt exists or you would have provided it in the previous 4 months since it was requested. Also, when an alleged debt is disputed, a notation must be entered on the debtors credit report showing the item as in dispute. Again, this was not done. Im sure you are aware of the consequences in violating the Fair Credit Reporting Act and the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act as well as the multiple violations your company is now responsible for. If not, let me point them out for you. FCR A 1. 623. Responsibilities of furnishers of information to consumer reporting agencies [ 15 U.S.C. 1681s-2 ] ( a ) ( 3 ) Duty to provide notice of dispute . 2. 611. Procedure in case of disputed accuracy [ 15 U.S.C. 1681i ] ( 5 ) Treatment of inaccurate or unverifiable information. FDCPA 1. 805 . Communication in connection with debt collection [ 15USC1692c ] ( c ) Ceasing Communication 2. 809. Validation of debts [ 15 USC 1692g ] As per the FDCPA : 813. Civil liability [ 15 USC 1692k ] ( a ) Except as otherwise provided by this section, any debt collector who fails to comply with any provision of this title with respect to any person is liable to such person in an amount equal to the sum of -- ( 1 ) any actual damage sustained by such person as a result of such failure ; ( 2 ) ( A ) in the case of any action by an individual, such additional damages as the court may allow, but not exceeding {$1000.00} If you wish to resolve this matter, this will be your last opportunity to do so. The foll owing items must be deleted from my credit files with the XXXX major credit reporting bureaus ( XXXX , XXXX , XXXX XXXX and ) within 72 hours or by XXXX XXXX , 2017 and you forward a Letter to me via email stating they have been removed and will not reappear on my credit reports again by you or another collection agency. Please be aware if these accounts are not deleted by XXXX XXXX ,2017 , I will be filing a lawsuit for multiple violations of the Fair Credit Reporting Act and The Fair Debt Collection Practices Act. I will be seeking civil liability in the amount of {$1000.00} per violation. Please also be aware I will file a formal complaint with the Federal Trade Commission, The Georgia State Attorney General, The and the Better Business Bureau. Thank you and I look forward to resolving this most expeditiously.

According to the Fair Credit Reporting Act 15 USC 1681 section 602 a states " There is a need to insure that consumer reporting agencies exercise their grave responsibilities with fairness, impartiality, and a respect for the consumers right to privacy. '' XXXX and XXXX and XXXX are consumer reporting agencies and I am the Consumer. I have the right to make sure my private information isn't shared which is backed by 15 USC 6801 which states " It is the policy of the Congress that each financial institution has an affirmative and continuing obligation to respect the privacy of its customers and to protect the security and confidentiality of those customers nonpublic personal information. '' I.C. System is a financial institution by definition under that title. 15 USC 1681 section 604 a section 2 states that " In general Subject to subsection ( c ), any consumer reporting agency may furnish a consumer report under the following circumstances and no other : in accordance with the written instructions of the consumer to whom it relates. '' I.C. System the financial institution and the Consumer reporting agencies XXXX and XXXX and XXXX do not have my consent to furnish this information and they surely do not have my written consent. Any and all consent to XXXX, XXXX, XXXX, I.C. System whether it be verbal, non-verbal, written, implied or otherwise is revoked. 15 USC 6802 ( b ) ( c ) states that " A financial institution may not disclose nonpublic personal information to a nonaffiliated third party unless the consumer is given an explanation of how the consumer can exercise that nondisclosure option. I.C. System Never informed me of my right to exercise my nondisclosure option. Not only that 15 USC 1681C ( a ) ( 5 ) states " Except as authorized under subsection ( b ), no consumer reporting agency may make any consumer report containing any of the following items of information Any other adverse item of information, other than records of convictions of crimes which antedates the report by more than seven years. '' This account is an adverse item they are reporting again without my permission which is against the law. 15 U.S. Code 1681s2 ( A ) ( 1 ) A states " A person shall not furnish any information relating to a consumer to any consumer reporting agency if the person knows or has reasonable cause to believe that the information is inaccurate. 15 U.S. Code 1681e states '' Every consumer reporting agency shall maintain reasonable procedures designed to avoid violations of section 1681c of this title and to limit the furnishing of consumer reports to the purposes listed under section 1681b of this title. XXXX and XXXX and XXXX are not maintaining reasonable procedures. Also XXXX2 CFR 1016.7 states that " A consumer may exercise the right to opt out at any time. '' I am opting out of your reporting services.

I am writing to alert the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau of a collections company that is violating my rights and not using proper communication methods when showing up on my credit report. I need the CFPB office to please look into my case. This I C SYSTEM account with a balance of {$70.00} has just popped up on my credit report without ever communicating to me. There was no written letter to me or calls to me so I can explain that they have the wrong person. They have recently just popped up on my credit report and I am not familiar with how they got my information or how they have my social security number. I do not owe this company and I Right now I am getting an alert on my credit karma and credit monitoring service saying my credit score has dropped tremendously. I can furnish the images of this alert showing the collections company. They are hurting me financially and this is a really big issue.

They are using my credit to communicate with me yet they NEVER wrote me before. If they don't write me then how could send me a right to dispute or explain my rights? Please review the original paperwork for this account. I request they send me a copy of this information to my address. I also request the original contract signed showing my signature long with all other pages of the original agreement. I am suffering damages because of this error. I have been a victim of ID theft before and I monitor my financial affairs very closely. To me this seems like an instance of debt parking that I read about on the FTC website. The Federal Trade Commission has taken action against debt collection companies that allegedly placed bogus or highly questionable debts onto consumers credit reports to coerce them to pay the debts. They label this as DEBT PARKING. The Federal Trade Commission recently took action against a Missouri collection company and its owners, alleging that they collected more than {$24.00} million from consumers, largely by placing bogus or highly questionable debts on their credit reports.

However, in XXXX I received a bill from XXXX stating that I have an out standing balance I ca n't remember the exactly amount but I think it was about {$38.00} I called them we argued but they told me that I was billed for the month on XXXX even though I had cancelled my account. because I did n't want to have any problem with my credit, I paid the amount in full the requested. but in XXXX I reveived another bill from XXXX again so I called them right away on wednesday XXXX XXXX 2015.After they transferred me XXXX different places, I finally talked to XXXX of their agent called XXXX. she told me the account was set up in XXXX so I asked her how the account was set up under my name with my address and all my information without my concern? but she did n't give me any definite answer, she just said maybe it was an error. however, she to me everything was taken care of and there is nothing to worry about. she give me this confirmation number ( XXXX ) that the account was closed and everything was clear. At the end of XXXX, I received another bill from XXXX but I thought maybe it was sent before I talk to them in XXXX so I ignored it, however early this month, i received another bill from XXXX again and this time I also received a litter from collection again attempting to collect a debit ( here IC system, account # XXXX ) I also called them but she demanded me to pay the balance of {$120.00} which I told I do not own, so I told her I will called XXXX I hanged up and called XXXX right away an agent name XXXX XXXX answered the phone, I explained everything to her she told me it look like it is system error becauses the account showed it was cancelled in XXXX, so I asked her to please transfered me to the manager, so she transferred to another agent name XXXX, I spoke with XXXX for about five minutes before i realized she was not the manager, I asked to transferred to the manager but she said the manager was in the meeting and asked for my contact number to call me back whenever the meeting is over, I gave her my number and asked for the manager number in case they do n't call me so I can call them because they have done it to me before and they never call me back.But she refused to give me the manager or any direct call back number, I to her please give me the manager number so that I can call back whenever he/she finishes the meeting, she said there is no direct number and hanged up on me.

In XX/XX/XXXX I noticed a derogatory account listed on my credit report, which had negatively impacted my credit rating. I discovered this was from a company called IC Systems. Upon calling ICS I was informed I had an outstanding debt of {$120.00} from XXXX dating from XX/XX/XXXX. They said it related to my not returning broadband equipment, which I had. I asked repeatedly for them to provide evidence of this debt which they have not. I explained that I had been a XXXX customer from XXXX to XX/XX/XXXX and therefore it was illogical that I would have debt with them during that period when my account was in good standing. They argued that as they were separate accounts ( one closed in XXXX and a new on started the same month due to moving home ) that it wouldnt show. It was confusing as I have never had any issue with my XXXX billing. The representative on the call said that IC had written to me a few times in the past few months ( coincidentally since I closed my XXXX account in XX/XX/XXXX ). I explained that I have been out of the US ( in the XXXX ) as a consequence of the coronavirus pandemic so hadnt seen the mail but asked to be communicated with via e-mail instead. He refused to have them e-mail me. On my opinion, in this day and age, there is no good reason not to write by e-mail. There is no more or less chance of risk than with a call or physical letter. It is a tactic on their part to draw me deeper in to problems. As a side note I believe the name IC Systems to be deliberately misleading too. It does not address the nature if their business and could be easily overlooked as junk mail or spam. In any case, the representative then asked if I would like to provide further details? I said no as the taped message at the start of the call said any information I provide could be used to pursue me and I dont want to be harassed. The agent said that isnt the case and they wouldnt use it for that. This is early contradictory and also doesnt reconcile with his earlier refusal to write to me via e-mail or to call my XXXX number. He then asked if I would like have to case reviewed, meaning it would be put on hold for a few weeks while it was assessed and no further action would be taken in the meantime. I agreed and asked for the evidence of debt to be sent during that process. Two days later they filed another derogatory account notice to my credit report. This company has now severely impacted my credit rating at a tome when people are struggling hugely. They still havent provided me with evidence nor reached out via phone or e-mail. I believe they have acted in bad faith throughout. They have caused me stress and affected my future ability to access credit. Their weekly credit updates are designed to weaken and pressurise the individual.

In XXXX of XXXX after moving to XXXX XXXX, Texas, my XXXX XXXX service began to take a sharp dive. I was receiving " 5G '' which at the time, was just a regular LTE network channel, advertised as 5G, which was almost always giving me dial-up data speeds. On several occasions at my apartment and around the city, my speeds were often no more than 800Kbps, which is nothing near the expected speed range for 5G or LTE. I contacted XXXX XXXX several times and was asked to complete troubleshooting, which I did. After troubleshooting, XXXX gave me some excuse about an outage or maintenance, each time I had brought these slow speed concerns to their attention. On the third time reaching out and insisting a ticket be filed for their engineers, I was told no and that the same, repetitive, unhelpful troubleshooting steps need to be done. After those steps were done again, I was told once again that this is just a temporary outage. This issue persisted for months, and in XXXX of XXXX, I contacted XXXX 's Executive Customer Relations team via emailing XXXX executives. My correspondence went unanswered several times until I continued to email their executives. Eventually, a customer relations representative reached out and offered no assistance. I advised them that I demanded for my phone installment plan to be credited and my account closed, so I could take my business to another provider. XXXX refused to provide any type of billing credit or credit to close my device 's installment plan. After weeks of non-compliance from XXXX, I cancelled my account by porting out. Several months later, I am now receiving a bill for {$800.00}, as XXXX is unwilling to reach a resolution because I won't play their bait and switch games. XXXX has sent my balance to multiple collection agencies which have failed to provide validation for the debt and violate FCRA and FDCPA regulations. After challenging the first collection agency, XXXX sold the debt to another agency. XXXX initially sent my debt to XXXX XXXX, which sent me an email regarding a balance. Upon sending a debt validation letter, XXXX XXXX did not reply within their required 30 days. After not hearing from XXXX or XXXX for a month, I received a debt collection notice from I.C. System Inc. at the end of XXXX, which I have mailed another debt validation letter, on XX/XX/XXXX. XXXX can not continue to buy back debt for a contract that XXXX violated by not providing proper service as promised, and sell it to a new debt collection agency each time they're challenged by me, as they clearly can not provide the necessary proof that the debt is mine and XXXX should be on notice that they had violated their contractual agreement to me, which I will not be paying for, as I cancelled my service and took my service elsewhere.

My credit reports with the three major credit bureaus contain accounts that should not be listed according to the wording and intent of 42 USC 407, which reads : 407. Assignment of benefits ( a ) In general The right of any person to any future payment under this subchapter shall not be transferable or assignable, at law or in equity, and none of the moneys paid or payable or rights existing under this subchapter shall be subject to execution, levy, attachment, garnishment, or other legal process, or to the operation of any bankruptcy or insolvency law. ( b ) Amendment of section No other provision of law, enacted before, on, or after XX/XX/XXXX, may be construed to limit, supersede, or otherwise modify the provisions of this section except to the extent that it does so by express reference to this section. ( c ) Withholding of taxes Nothing in this section shall be construed to prohibit withholding taxes from any benefit under this subchapter, if such withholding is done pursuant to a request made in accordance with section 3402 ( p ) ( 1 ) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 by the person entitled to such benefit or such persons representative payee. ( Aug. 14, 1935, ch. 531, title II, 207, 49 Stat. 624 ; Aug. 10, 1939, ch. 666, title II, 201, 53 Stat. 1362, 1372 ; Pub. L. 9821, title III, 335 ( a ), Apr. 20, 1983, 97 Stat. 130 ; Pub. L. 105277, div. J, title IV, 4005 ( a ), Oct. 21, 1998, 112 Stat. 2681911. ) None of my accounts pertains to section C, withholding of taxes. Therefore, everything derogatory about my credit that is reported by any agency other than various student loan lenders should be removed, as they are expressly not " assignable, at law or in equity '' and may not " be subject to execution, levy, attachment, garnishment, or other legal process, or to the operation of any bankruptcy or insolvency law. '' These creditors include : XXXX XXXX XXXX FOR {$3900.00} IC SYSTEM FOR {$540.00} XXXX XXXX FOR {$100.00}, {$88.00}, {$81.00} AND {$65.00} XXXX XXXX FOR {$1000.00} XXXX XXXX XXXX FOR {$3100.00} XXXX XXXX FOR {$1000.00} Also, ALL of my federal student loans have been dismissed by a Total and Permanent XXXX ( TPD ) waiver, bu several still show as actively unpaid, including one last reported XX/XX/XXXX for {$3900.00} ; one last reported XX/XX/XXXX for {$26000.00} and one last reported XX/XX/XXXX for {$270.00}. The others correctly reflect the TPD. Finally, one last reported by XXXX XXXX XXXX on XX/XX/XXXX for {$5000.00} has been on appeal in various court 's since before it was first reported, the most current being the New Mexico Supreme Court, Case No. XXXX, which is in abeyance pending the decision of another appellant 's similar appeal. As my case has been and remains on appeal, this entry should be deleted entirely.

Today I noticed a collection on all three credit reporting agencies ( XXXX, XXXX, and XXXX ). The original creditor is XXXX XXXX XXXX and the collection agency is as follows I C SYSTEM, XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, MN XXXX, ( XXXX ) XXXX. I was not aware that I owed this debt. I was not notified of this debt. On XX/XX/XXXX my husband and I called I C System at XXXX XXXX. and spoke with XXXX XXXX. Her employee number is XXXX. I asked her, " How did IC System verify this debt ''. She stated they have no way of verifying the debt and do not have to. She said they only follow what the original creditor told them to do. I asked what address did they have on file. They said XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX, TN XXXX. However, I lived at an entirely different address in a different city on that date, I moved to my new address in XXXX of last year and have a lease to prove it. Before that, I lived with my mom at a different address. I asked I C System how they notified me of the debt and they said by text message on XXXX the XXXX of XXXX. The number they gave me was ( XXXX ) XXXX. However, I contacted XXXX XXXX and they verified I had that number from XXXX until XXXX. Then I updated my number to ( XXXX ) XXXX from XXXX to current. I asked I C Sytem did they mail me verification or notified me by mail and she stated no. I asked if they notified me by email and she said they never had my email. The Consumer Financial Bureau ( CFPB ) states, " Make sure the bill is yours and shows your correct name, and billing address. '' However, I was not provided a chance to verify any of this information. Instead, this company took it upon itself to place this on my credit report without giving me a chance to verify the debt. - The Consumer Financial Bureau ( CFPB ) states, Before a debt collector can report your debt to a credit reporting company, the debt collector must do any XXXX of the following : Speak with you in person about the debt, Speak with you by telephone about the debt, Mail you a letter about the debt and wait a reasonable amount of time ( generally 14 days ) for a notice that the letter wasnt delivered, or Send you an electronic communication about the debt and wait a reasonable amount of time ( generally 14 days ) for a notice that the message wasnt delivered. If a debt collector sends you a validation notice about a debt, it means they have satisfied their requirement to contact you and, in general, can begin to report the debt to credit reporting companies. However, I never received notification or verification of the debt in any way listed above. I recorded the phone conversation between the representative and I for my protection. I am completely disgusted at how debt collection agencies feel as if they can do whatever they want.

I received several alerts through XXXX XXXX XXXX a credit monitoring service back in early XX/XX/XXXX. XXXX credit alert notified me and advised me that a new account had been added to my credit reports from IC Systems. The only thing that IC systems listed was their name & address. However, the account information read N/A. If I had not of received an alert from the credit bureau ( s ), I would have never become aware of IC Systems adding a collection account to my credit. One year prior, I had also found out from the credit bureaus that IC systems had been pulling my credit reports and leaving credit pulling inquiries on my credit reports. In XXXX, I reached out to IC Systems certified mail regarding the Illegal and unauthorized credit pulling inquiries. However, the company never responded. In XX/XX/XXXX ; I reached out to IC Systems twice Certified Mail with dispute letters regarding the account that they had added. However, after IC systems signed & received my dispute letters sent certified mail, the company failed to respond. Instead, they intentionally and deliberately updated the same account with the credit bureaus. IC Systems even updated the same account 3 times with XXXX within a one month time span. While their illegal, unethical deceptive practices, continued, I contacted the collection agency certified mail. However, no resolution or attempts to resolve their illegal tactics was ever performed. IC Systems failed to notify me prior to adding their account on my credit reports, and once I found out about their added account from XXXX credit alert, the company then purposely updated and added the disputed account 3 times back to back on my XXXX as a knowingly spiteful method as they continued to fail at responding to my dispute letters. Recently around XX/XX/XXXX ; I received a letter in the mail from IC Systems dated for XX/XX/XXXX. The letter which was sent way after the legal limit of the 5 days of receipt that the FTC and FDCPA outlines, was a balance letter that requested payment with a copy of a bill. After IC Systems has been pulling my credit for a whole year, failed to respond to my dispute regarding more information on their unauthorized credit pulls, the company then waits a whole year to illegally add an account numerous times to my consumer credit reports all while failing to notify me. This is illegal. Their actions are deceptive. They have now finally sent a payment letter due to numerous FTC complaints filed against IC systems for their failure to respond back to multiple dispute letters received by them certified mail, XXXX XXXX # XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX mailed XXXX XX/XX/XXXX, XXXX XXXX # XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX. They have still failed at acknowledging any of my disputes. FTC XXXX # 's XXXX & XXXX.

According to the Fair Credit Reporting Act, Section 611 ( 5 ) ( A ) of the FCRA you are required to promptly DELETE all of the information that is inaccurate, incomplete, or which can not be verified. It is also my understanding that Under the FCRA 15 U.S.C 1681i, every single one even each any or all of the unproven, non-compliant, incomplete, untrue, incorrect, and or unverified aspects of any alleged derogatory accounts must be promptly negated in its entirety or the alleged accounts are to be completely deleted. The FOLLOWING derogatory accounts allegations are either UNTRUE, UNVERIFIED, INCORRECT, INCOMPLETE, UNTIMELY, NOT MINE, NOT MY RESPONSIBILITY, or otherwise NOT PROVEN COMPLIANT to regulatory federal reporting laws and or standards and MUST be removed immediate The infractions are as follows : I.C. SYSTEM, INC XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, FL XXXX, United States XXXX Cease and Desist. I DO NOT KNOW WHO YOU ARE AND I HAVE NEVER DONE BUSINESS WITH YOU ALL. REMOVE THIS FROM MY CREDIT FILE IMMEDIATELY. Not only is it illegal for a 3rd party collection agency to collect a debt that never originated with you all, I have no recollection of doing business with you. Not sure who you are or why this is here. The information you all are reporting is 100 % false! - inaccurate. I never gave ANYONE FROM YOUR COMPANY my written consent for any debt and I DONT NOT OWE YOU ANYTHING I am demanding that this account be updated to paid as agreed and Never Late.

I am writing to formally lodge a complaint against I C System Inc, a debt collection agency, for their unjust and unethical practices in attempting to collect a debt that has not been properly verified and is beyond the statute of limitations. I am deeply concerned about their approach, which appears to violate the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act ( FDCPA ) and other relevant consumer protection laws. I recently received communication from I C System Inc. in the form of an invoice and a copy of a phone bill, both of which are being used as evidence to support their claim for debt repayment. However, I find their approach inadequate and problematic for the following reasons : 1. Failure to Verify Debt : According to the FDCPA, debt collectors are required to provide validation of a debt upon request. I have made an official request for debt verification, and all I received in response was a copy of a phone bill and an invoice to pay. This does not constitute sufficient verification of the debt 's legitimacy and accuracy. 2. Expired Statute of Limitations : The debt in question is beyond the statute of limitations, which means that the legal timeframe for pursuing collection actions has expired. Despite this, I C System Inc, is attempting to collect the debt, which raises concerns about their adherence to legal guidelines and ethical standards. 3. Insufficient Documentation : A mere copy of a phone bill and an invoice does not provide the necessary documentation to prove the validity of the debt. Without detailed information and proper validation, it is impossible for me to assess the accuracy of their claim. 4. Furnished the written validation notice within the required time period and otherwise complied with applicable validation requirements ( 15 U.S.C. 1692g 5. Company has no Contract between XXXX XXXX and I C System Inc I kindly request that the Department of Financial Protection and Innovation thoroughly investigates this matter and takes appropriate action against XXXX XXXX XXXX if they are found to be in violation of consumer protection laws. I believe their actions not only undermine my rights as a consumer but also contribute to the erosion of trust in the debt collection industry as a whole. I am attaching copies of all relevant correspondence from I C System Inc, as well as any communication I have had with them. I appreciate your attention to this matter and your commitment to safeguarding consumer rights. Please feel free to contact me at XXXX or XXXX if you require any further information or clarification regarding this complaint. I look forward to a swift resolution to this issue and the restoration of my rights as a consumer. Thank you for your time and consideration. Sincerely, XXXX XXXX

On XXXX XXXX, 2017, I received notification from XXXX that my credit had been pulled for approval of new accounts. This was one of many as I was a victim of the XXXX data breach and had several accounts through several companies opened in my name. So far, they have all been resolved except XXXX. Here is an outline of events. 1. XX/XX/XXXX - I received my first notificaiton that something was off. Credit was pulled on XXXX XXXX according to paperwork received from XXXX. 2. XX/XX/XXXX - I sent my first communication to XXXX. Spring has no fraud department contacts you can reach via telephone. Literally could not get anyone on the phone to speak with about this so I sent an email from my work account. The email was sent to the " XXXXXXXXXXXX '' address. The first rep to reach out to me had the name " XXXX XXXX '' from the Credit Business Operations department. She asked to provide my name, phone number, and address. I sent that same day. A second rep from the company whose name only came across as " XXXX '' from the Credit Business Operations department directed me toward a link where I had to fill out a packet and mail it to XXXX. The packet had to include a police report and other signed paperwork. 3. XX/XX/XXXX - I had already had a police report filed through XXXX Police department ( XXXX, OH XXXX ). This report was for an XXXX account that was opened and the situation handled. I appended the XXXX account to this police report so that I would have it for XXXX. I filled out the paperwork and sent it in as well. 4. XX/XX/XXXX - Not hearing anything from XXXX in almost a month, I reached back out and let them know that I would be looking into getting a lawyer if they would not assist me. They told me they would escalate the case and open the investigation on their side immediately. They never acknowledged receiving the packet and I feel it is lost in transition somewhere. This response came from " XXXX XXXX. '' in the CBO office. 5.XX/XX/XXXX - Still hearing nothing from XXXX, I emailed yet again ( as I mentioned above, no number to call and they wo n't connect you to anyone from the customer service line ). The rep was " XXXX XXXX. '' again who told me to go into a XXXX store to speak with someone. This has been the most frustrating and inconvenient experience ever. It 's bad enough that someone stole my identity, but then XXXX makes it impossible to get it resolved. They now have my account in their collection department " XXXX XXXX ''. I spoke to a gentleman there who notated the account of what was happening. He was actually more helpful than anyone at XXXX. My account is still opened with their credit collection department and I 'm at a loss at this point. This post was created XX/XX/XXXX.

I have disputed this collection for over 3 years since, XX/XX/2018. I paid my service contract, in full, with XXXX when I ported my XXXX phone numbers to XXXX XXXX XXXX. The phone numbers can not be released by XXXX unless they have a XXXX outstanding balance. The numbers ported to XXXX XXXX XXXX from XXXX with XXXXXXXX XXXX consent, were : XXXX and XXXX. Both of these phone numbers have been under an XXXX XXXX XXXX service contract under XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, since that day. There was one phone, an XXXX XXXX, that was leased, so I had cleared the memory at XXXX XXXX XXXX store and later, sent the XXXX XXXX XXXX back to XXXX XXXX in the XXXX provided, pre-addressed, Yellow envelope. Over the last 3 years, I have been harassed by at least 3 different collectors on different amounts, for different account bills, and nothing in writing consistent, from XXXX, from the prior collection attempts nor the validation of the new collection amounts. I have always disputed this collection, as I had the paid in full letter sent to the XXXX XXXX XXXX dealer in XXXX, the day we started the new account with XXXX XXXX XXXXin order to be able to get the release of the phone numbers, mentioned earlier, and " ported '' to the new phone service aith XXXX XXXX XXXX from XXXX. I could only do that with XXXXXXXX XXXX permission and guarantee release of the phone numbers to the new service provider. I pourchased a new phone from XXXX XXXX XXXX in order to be able to return the XXXX XXXX to XXXX in their envelope mailed to me that was bright yellow. Suddenly, XXXX started sending me more envelopes and stating they did not receive the phone. Later that year the collections began for unpaid balance charged for the subsequent month after the phone numbers were ported to XXXX XXXX XXXX. we closed the accounts and the service was not provided by XXXX because they no longer had the phone numbers in their control after releasing them XX/XX/2018. There is no service amount owed, as per the earlier disputes resolved with XXXX. Neither XXXX nor the current collection company, I.C. System Inc., which XXXX has now assigned the debt, for a new amount of {$700.00}, is willing to send me any written explanation of the debt and how they came to that amount, other than for a missing phone and services unpaid. No dates match the duration of my contract and previously the collectors stated the " lost phone '' was actually collected in an insurance claim from sprint with the mail carrier in the prior debt collection attempts. XXXX needs to substantiate this false claim, on the service bill they created falsely, from an account they state was paid in full and cancelled service, and paid in full, prior to my changing cellular companies.

I owed an outstanding balance of {$120.00} to XXXX XXXX XXXX for a land-line service that I no longer needed. I paid the outstanding amount of {$120.00}, based on my billing statment from XXXX XXXX XXXX ( including late fees & penalties ). I had no indication other than that XXXX XXXX XXXX accepted my payment in full. It appears that XXXX XXXX XXXX either sent this debt to XXXX different Debt Collection Agencies or this debt was sold from one debt collector to another ( I.C System Inc. phone XXXX ) and ( XXXX phone XXXX ). XXXX debt collectors are based in MN. XXXX company ( I.C. System Inc. ) submitted this information to the Credit Reporting Agencies twice, using a different account number, so it showed up twice on my credit report. Some time after, the other Debt Collection Company ( XXXX ) reported the same debt with somewhat different information, to the Credit Reporting Agencies, using yet another different account number. This resulted in this SAME debt being listed 3 times on my credit report, even though the debt had already been paided in full ( based on my billing stmt ) directly to XXXX XXXX XXXX ( confirmed pmt received {$120.00} on XXXX/XXXX/2014 ). I filed several disputes with the Credit Reporting Agencies, explaining that this debt had been paid in full directly to the original creditor and that there were multiple listings of the same debt on my credit profile. The result of the dispute was that they removed one of the OLDEST debt collection records from my credit report ( which would have removed from my credit profile soonest ) and update the remaining NEWER debt collection company record with the INACCURATE information of " settled-less than full balance. The account had already been closed. This debt was " paid-in-full, based on the last billing statement ( including late fees and penalties ) from XXXX XXXX XXXX. A debt collector should not be able to request more than the amount of the outstanding debt. My contention is that my credit profile should not be negatively affected by the mistakes of XXXX seperate debt collectors reporting different information on the same debt. Who decides which one is valid? Why was the oldest record removed and not the newest? Can XXXX debt collection company sell a debt to another, thus possibly increasing the time that the information remains on my credit profile? Because of these obvious mistakes in reporting by XXXX different debt collectors and the fact that my debt had already been paid directly to, and accecpted by, the original debt holder ( XXXX XXXX XXXX ), I contend that this erroneous and arbitrarily selected remaining debt collection record still remaining on my credit profile for XXXX should be removed immediately.

Complaint Against I.C. Systems for Unrecognized Collection Notice on My Credit Report I hope this message finds you well. I am writing with deep concern and distress about a recent collection notice placed on my credit report by I.C. Systems. Prior to this, I have maintained a clean credit history without any collection notices. This unexpected entry not only impedes my potential future purchases but also adds an undue layer of stress in these already trying economic times. On XX/XX/2023, I contacted I.C. Systems at the number ( XXXX ) provided on my credit report. At precisely XXXX XXXX, I spoke with a representative named XXXX to inquire about the aforementioned collection notice. She informed me that the collection was related to a XXXX account and further explained that their records show the account being handed to them on XX/XX/2023. XXXX also mentioned that a letter was dispatched to me on XX/XX/2023, to inform me about the situation. This seemed incongruous, as the collection was already on my credit report by XX/XX/2023. I probed deeper, inquiring if any other communication attempts had been made. XXXX confirmed no attempts besides the letter. When specifically asked about phone contact, she indicated that there had been no phone outreach according to her records. I explained to XXXX that I do not recognize this alleged debt and had not received any notifications about it. I then requested the removal of this collection from my credit report, at which point XXXX transferred me to her supervisor, XXXX ( # XXXX ). I reiterated my concerns to Supervisor XXXX and inquired about their communication methods regarding the collection. Although XXXX confirmed the dispatch date of the letter as XX/XX/2023, she contradicted XXXX 's information by stating that phone attempts were made on XX/XX/XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX, and XX/XX/XXXX of 2023. XXXX further mentioned that they are prohibited by law from leaving voice messages, and she was unable to provide the numbers from which they had allegedly called. Upon questioning the legitimacy of the debt, XXXX revealed that XXXX. XXXX does not own the debt ; instead, it remains with XXXX. I found it perplexing that a company, which does not own the debt, could place a collection notice on my credit report. XXXX clarified that they were operating on behalf of XXXX. Despite my repeated requests to have the item removed due to its dubious nature, XXXX declined. Given the above circumstances and the inconsistency in I.C. Systems ' communication, I believe it is necessary to bring this matter to your esteemed attention. I genuinely hope that the CFPB can provide guidance and resolution in this matter. Thank you for your time and consideration

I disputed this collection account with all three credit bureaus multiple times the latest date being XXXX/XXXX/XXXX. I have a collection account for the amount of {$140.00} showing on both my XXXX as well as my XXXX credit reports.

False or misleading representations [ 15 USC 1692e ] ( 8 ) Communicating or threatening to communicate to any person credit information which is known or which should be known to be false, including the failure to communicate that a disputed debt is disputed. This debt is also in violation of Section 392.101 of Texas Finance Code which prohibits a third-party debt collector from engaging in debt collection in Texas unless the third-party debt collector has obtained a surety bond and filed a copy of the bond with the Office of the Secretary of State. Furthermore, Sec. 392.301 ( a ) ( 4 ) of Texas Finance Code Prohibits threatening to sell or assign to another the obligation of the consumer and falsely representing that the result of the sale or assignment would be that the consumer would lose a defense to the Consumer debt or would be subject to illegal collection attempts.as well as the Deceptive Trade Practices-Consumer Protection Act. I have filed a complaint, see attached, with the Texas Attorney General Consumer Complaint Division as well and I request the immediate removal of this trade line from all three credit bureaus as you and the original creditor have violated the aforementioned laws. This debt has been removed and reinserted multiple times on my reports. Please also be aware that any negative mark found on my credit reports ( including XXXX, XXXX and XXXX XXXX from your company or any company that you represent, for a debt that I dont owe, is a violation of the FCRA & FDCPA ; therefore if you can not validate the debt, you must request that all credit reporting agencies delete the entry.

Upon reviewing the contents of my consumer report, I noticed that I C SYSTEM INC. and I C SYSTEMS COLLECTIONS have a negative account listed in the amount of {$550.00}. This company is in complete non-compliance of state and federal debt collection laws. This company had to notify me about certain things pertaining to this debt once it was acquired from the original creditor and before they reported it to the credit bureaus such as : the identity of the original creditor, an itemized accounting of the debt and if they don't have this information they can not comply with state and federal regulations therefore can not LEGALLY make attempts to collect the debt. I C Systems INC was also obligated to disclose the amount of the debt when the original creditor sent it to collections, the amount of interest accrued since the debt was sent to collections, the amount of fees and other charges added since the acquisition of the debt if any, a statement describing how the debt collector acquired the debt from the original creditor, and if applicable any payments made by the debtor since debt was sent into collection. On my consumer report it states that the debt was placed for collection in XX/XX/2022 but according to the payment history, the debt was placed for collection in XX/XX/2022 making the information provided to the CRA 's inaccurate. On my consumer report under " Type '' it states " XXXX XXXX ''. According to state and federal debt collection laws it is ILLEGAL for a debt collection agency to pretend as if they are attorneys in an attempt to intimidate the consumer into paying the debt. Furthermore, this company did not CONSPICUOUSLY disclose on the statute of limitations regarding this debt. I C Solutions INC has an obligation to be aware of the statute of limitations of any debt they attempt to collect on. I was not notified that the statute of limitations expired, I was not notified that it is a violation of the FDCPA to sue to collect a debt for which the statute of limitations expired, I was not notified that I do not have to admit to owing the debt or give up rights regarding the statute of limitations, I was not notified that if I admit to owing the debt or promise to pay the debt, the statute of limitations will restart. I have received NONE of the information listed above, had I not pulled my credit reports from the credit bureaus I would have had NO KNOWLEDGE whatsoever that this debt even existed. I am accepting no other action but a DELETION of this erroneous information off of my consumer report. These deceptive collection practices have caused harm to my reputation as a consumer, and I request that the CFPB upholds the law and grant me the swift justice I deserve.

I was clear with the sales agent that I did not want to pay for the installation nor equipment, and the sales agent told me they could do that. I was not overly thrilled with the service and received XXXX bill from XXXX the following month, which was not paid immediately, so the service was disconnected sometime between XX/XX/XXXX to XXXX, XXXX. I left this address on XX/XX/XXXX aware that I owed XXXX month of service but nothing more. I didnt think they would charge me anything further as the service was deactivated, no longer in use. Once I had relocated to my new home in California, I received a call from a debt collector about this bill in XX/XX/XXXX. I didnt understand the charges but I knew the amount for {$300.00} for XXXX days service was incorrect. When I called XXXX they told me they had sent my account to a third party debt collector and it was out of their hands, that they couldnt do anything. I asked to dispute the charges and they said they would contact me back, I never received any call-back or email, nor voicemail. Now that Im trying to upgrade my bank account they tell me somethings popping up with my SSN and so I called XXXX in XX/XX/XXXX and was told the charges were for the equipment that I never returned, but I was never informed upfront about any equipment charges nor that I had to return them. I told them again I wanted to dispute the charges and was told somebody would get back to me, but again I never received a call, email or voicemail ( a voicemail I could respond to ). I called XXXX today to discuss the disputed charges and was told I should have known to cancel my account after they had already deactivated it, and that I should know to return the equipment and that I should know I will get charged for them. Not when I was told on XX/XX/XXXX that the equipment was no charge upfront and that I would not be charged. XXXX can not provide me with the exact dates my service was active, and say they did not cancel my account until XX/XX/XXXX, which is XXXX months after they deactivated my service. I told XXXX that I believe I am liable to pay for the XXXX days the Internet was active, but not for the other charges that I did not agree to nor were unaware of, nor that they would charge me these extra charges at a later date. XXXX tell me they only added the charges onto my account in once they cancelled it! And then failed to inform me of this information, I found out through their third party debt collector, IC Systems. Obviously, Im not going to pay the debt collector, nor any XXXX bill, until Ive resolved these charges that I never agreed to.

Out of the blue, I received a letter 10 months ago from a collection company, XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, NY. The letter was dated XX/XX/XXXX, and it was alerting me that XXXX was collecting a past-due balance of {$350.00} from me on behalf of XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX NY. I was baffled and stunned to receive this notice because I had paid my cable bill in total to XXXX XXXX before cancelling service with them in XX/XX/XXXX and returning the cable box and equipment. I never received any further communication from XXXX after paying my bill in total, canceling service because I moved to another residence and returning equipment. Immediately after receiving this notice about a bogus bill in my name, I contacted XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX and filed a complaint against XXXX XXXX and XXXX XXXX for trying to collect a bill that was not mine and failing to communicate with me the details of the alleged bill : what were the dates of services, what kind of services, what were the original charges, when did the bill become past-due? In a timely manner, XXXX XXXX sent me a letter notifying me that they will never contact me again or hire any third-party to contact me on the company 's behalf about this bogus past-due claim for {$350.00}. Additionally, I never again heard from XXXX XXXX XXXX. I was satisfied with the responses and considered the matter closed. However, nine months later, I received an annoying letter from IC System, of XXXX XXXX, MN, advising me that they are collecting the same alleged past-due amount of {$350.00} from me on behalf of XXXX XXXX XXXX for unspecified service charges. Again, this was out of the blue, no earlier letters or phone calls. Further, IC System, reported this bogus past-due allegation in the amount of {$350.00} as an unpaid collection to XXXX credit reporting services, which lowered my near-perfect credit score by XXXX points from a near-perfect XXXX to a paltry XXXX. Immediately, I filed a complaint against IC System, XXXX and XXXX with tXXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX. I am awaiting a XXXX response. XXXX XXXX is the parent company of XXXX. XXXX should have abided by the decision of XXXX to stop any further actions against me for an alleged debt that they could not confirm as mine and could not specify, qualify or quantify or provide specific details of any kind to me because the charges were not made by me. Instead of ceasing and desisting actions against me based on fraudulent and flawed information, this bogus past-due collection was sold to another collection company to pursue actions against me after I was told by the initial alleged creditor, XXXX XXXX XXXX that all attempts to pursue this bogus collection would be stopped. # # #

I recently decided to fix my credit DIY style, started by ordering my credit reports and looked at every account as if it was under a microscope. One by one I realized that re-aging of accounts was astonishingly prevalent and running rapid on my credit report. I couldnt believe it! Nevertheless I decided to contact the collection agencies to clarify the debt ( not verification or validation ), I didnt get very far as they could not or would not answer my questions. Thats when I turned to the original creditors for answers, they were able to answer every questions I had but, then another problem arose. The information reported by the collection agencies to the bureaus were different than what I was being told by the original creditors. Surly the original creditors will know Activity date, date the account was open and so on. I C Systems INC is the collection agency for the original creditor of XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX. According to XXXX XXXX XXXX as evident by the recorded phone call attached as evidence ( I live in a one party consent state- New York ). The Date Of Last Payment XX/XX/XXXX ( last activity date ), the Date Account Was Closed XX/XX/XXXX. According to the collection agency I C Systems the date of last activity is XX/XX/XXXX on XXXX and XX/XX/XXXX on XXXX. I C Systems INC is re-aging the account, this is illegal. According to Fair Credit Reporting Act { FCRA } If you are a debt collector furnishing information to a CRA about the accounts of a creditor, you must report the date of delinquency given to you by the CREDITOR FCRA 623 ( a ) ( 5 ) ( A ) This " date of delinquency '' determines how long the debt can be reported on a consumer 's credit report. Generally, a CRA may report a delinquent debt for seven years from the date of delinquency. If the debt was discharged in bankruptcy, however, a CRA may report it for 10 years. I have never had a bankruptcy. I C SYSTEM ( Original Creditor : XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX ) XXXX XXXX Date Last Active : XX/XX/XXXX XX/XX/XXXX Recording According to the recording the agent of XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX states at ( XXXX timestamp of the recording ) that the last payment was XX/XX/XXXX in the amount {$120.00}. This date is the last date of delinquency ( known as the delinquency date or date of last activity ). However the I C Systems Inc is listing the last date of activity as XX/XX/XXXX on XXXX and XX/XX/XXXX on XXXX. Lastly Ill like to discuss how re-aging hurts the consumer, and destroys their credit and reputation. It affects the consumer like myself credit worthiness much longer than it should. Uncollectible collections accounts forces the consumer to reluctantly and unknowingly settle the collection.

This is harassment and for a minor debt that I thought was resolved through discussions with XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX Customer Service and then these collection agencies continue to harass me. I.C. System XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, MN XXXX Credit dispute for XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX account closed in early XX/XX/XXXX. This is the second or third collection agency assigned to this matter which is disputed for the third or fourth time. I closed the account when transferring our cell phones ( and XXXX XXXX ) from XXXX XXXX XXXX to XXXX. Everything seemed fine until XXXX of XXXX when I got an automatic payment to XXXX XXXX XXXX for {$87.00}. Since the account ( I thought ) had been closed and made final payment in XXXX, I called XXXX XXXX XXXX to discuss the charge for {$87.00} This occurred in approximately XX/XX/XXXX. It was then that I determined that during the transition from XXXX XXXX XXXX to XXXX that XXXX of the iPhones was still active on the XXXX & XXXX network even though it was active on the XXXX network. In discussing the account with XXXX XXXX XXXX customer service, they indicated that I should contest through the credit card company which I did. XXXX XXXX refunded the {$87.00} to me. Then XXXX XXXX XXXX contested and rebilled the automated payment by XXXX XXXX. I then got XXXX XXXX to refund the {$87.00} again and prevented XXXX XXXX XXXX from being able to bill through the automated payment process. After talking again to XXXX XXXX XXXX Customer service, they indicated that they could not refund my {$87.00} because the account was closed and therefore, they could not process a refund. They told me to go through my Credit card company to process the refund which I did. XXXX & XXXX still tried to collect the {$87.00}. This obviously is a minor payment all things considered but it is the principle that I have decided to stop a Large company from continuing trying to collect money which even their Customer service admitted their own system could not process the refund. Some months later XXXX XXXX XXXX turned this over to a collection agency and called repeatedly over many months. After talking to them, I told them all about this process and referred them back to XXXX XXXX XXXX customer service since this all had to be in the notes regarding this account. From what I see the dispute was posted to my credit in XX/XX/XXXX. This was almost a year after this whole process started. I hope this provides enough information to get this expunged from my credit. I will be pursuing this and reporting it thru the www.cfpb.gov/debt-collection system. Please stop contacting me. Thanks, XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, OH XXXX XXXX

On XX/XX/2018 I received a letter dated XX/XX/2018 from this collection agency that I never did any business. I immediately responded with a letter stating that I did not have any business with the collection agency and because they are a 3rd party collector they need my permission to furnish any information on my credit as it is stated in the FDCPA. I clearly told them they DO NOT have my permission to access nor report on my credit file. I requested validation, verification, proof of contract and a certified copy of an authenticated original contract with my signature naming them as an entity entitled to enforce a commercial claim against me. I informed them that according to the FDCPA they have 15 days to provide the strict proof of contract or they must cease and desist any & all collection efforts. I am attaching a copy of the letter as proof. On XX/XX/2018, I received a responding letter dated XX/XX/2018 from the collection agency stating they would honor my request to cease communication and they would be terminating any further collection efforts. They then stated that they would send weekly electronic files to credit reporting agencies listing debts that are unresolved and unpaid 15 days after they begin collection efforts. They DID NOT send the requested information that was clearly listed in the verification, validation & proof of contract letter that I requested. They also did not respond with said information within the 15 days that the FDCPA allows. On XX/XX/2018 I responded to the collection agency stating they did not provide strict proof of contract at all, which puts them in breech of the 15 day window listed in the FDCPA. I also stated that I appreciate them for stating they would cease communication and terminate collection efforts, but they should also NOT do anything as it related to my credit files for they DO NOT have my permission. I also listed the missing information that they DID NOT verify NOR validate. I clearly stated my remedies in the event they violated my rights by reporting this unverified, unvalidated & uncertified information on my credit report. I even CC 'd the legal firm I may use in the event they go any further. This collection agency did not honor their word nor did they provide any proof ; they did send a letter to the law firm stating they intend to collect on the alleged debt. Yesterday, XX/XX/2018 I saw that this collection agency did file a collection report to the credit reporting agencies which clearly violates my rights and has hurt me in the process for I was attempting to get a loan. I have attached all letters that were sent to and received by the collection agency.

Hello, A company called I C SYSTEM INC is attempting to collect on a debt that was turned over to them in the year XXXX for a company called XXXX. In my first call to the company XXXX, a XXXX employee told me they attempted to collect the debt in early XXXX through XXXX before turning it over to the collection company I C SYSTEM INC. I C SYSTEM INC puts this debt on my credit report in early XX/XX/XXXX, and puts it as a debt from the previous month of XX/XX/XXXX. I tried contacting I C SYSTEM INC and they told me to contact a different division known as XXXX fraud division since I never had this account in the first place some 7 years ago. I called XXXX fraud division and spoke with a Fraud investigator named " XXXX '' who looked in the computer using my social security number, date of birth, the address that I C SYSTEM INC provided me, and the phone number that I C SYSTEM INC provided me. XXXX Fraud Investigator told me on the phone that there was no account past or present that showed up in their system. I am including the Fraud hotline for XXXX in this message if the information needs to be verified. This I C SYSTEM INC is obviously falsely reporting when the debt occur ed on my credit report ( they admitted it was from XXXX or XXXX not XXXX ), the company they stated they were collecting from has nothing on file for me, and every attempt to dispute their postings on my credit reports has failed. To add to all these questionable things that I C Systems INC did ... they also waited until there was a state of emergency in the country to add this to my report ... making it very difficult to obtain financing and to pursue litigation against them due most state offices being closed. They placed the same thing at the same time on both XXXX XXXX and XXXX. I am a XXXX and have been trying very very hard to everything right. I've been told several times to give it to a local news agency to help protect me and my credit from this company. I don't know what can be done here, if nothing is done here then I guess I will just need to go to court and the news to get treated fairly. Phone conversations with I C SYSTEM INC all recorded. Phone conversations with XXXX all recorded. I C SYSTEM INC phone number : XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX phone number : XXXX XXXX XXXX Information on my report : Account NameI C SYSTEM INC Account NumberXXXX Account TypeCollection ResponsibilityIndividual Date OpenedXX/XX/XXXXStatusCollection account. {$370.00} past due as of XX/XX/XXXX.

I am referring a case to the Consumer Protection Bureau as follows. First, please see the most recent document, 'New_Debt_Collector_Account.jpg '. This was sent to me on XX/XX/2021 and arrived on XX/XX/2021. This is a letter from " I.C. System '' telling me I must pay a delinquent account for " XXXX ''. An account I thought that was already settled by " Offices of the XXXX XXXX XXXX ''. Or so I believed. Until now... See attachment 'dispute.rtf '. This is the original letter I sent to " Offices of the XXXX XXXX XXXX ''. Within 'dispute.rtf ' is a very detailed, and extremely well articulated ( if I do say so myself ) dispute letter, delineating the abuses and reasons to " XXXX '' of why I would not pay the bill. In a response, sent back to me by " Offices of the XXXX XXXX XXXX '', 'dispute_response.jpg ', they said they would discontinue their collection efforts and no information regarding this account would be referred to the credit bureau XXXX THEN, 7 months later, from " I.C. System '' I receive, 'New_Debt_Collector_Account.jpg ', as first seent above, saying I still owe this debt. My question, to " I.C. System '' " XXXX XXXX '' and the " Consumer Protection Bureau '' are : How can I dispute and then remove a debt, that I legitimatlly do not owe, and be exonerated from it, if " Charter/Spectrum '' can simply refer it to another debt collecting company to try and collect it? And then tarnish my credit? Is misleading a consumer like this 'legal '? As 'dispute.rtf ' indicates, I even said I would contact the Consumer Protection Bureau and the XXXX. I did not originally do this and regret that decision, but I am doing so now!! Furthermore, due to the unparalleled absolute deceptive malfeasance on the part of " XXXX '' and these debt XXXX, I am considering approaching media outlets with my story. Consumers can not and should not be ripped of this way and their credit tarnished, while a corrupt telecommunications company and their debt collecting cronies attempt to charge them for several months of internet they never had. This is fraud, it is illegal, and it needs to stop. And I wish to be exonerated from this debt as I was originally led to believe!!! Finally, if " XXXX '' are part of any class action lawsuits involving this behaviour ( and I'm sure they are ), then I wish to testify on the behalf on any government, individual, and/or private institutions as to the corrput nature of entities such as " XXXX '' and their debt collectors, and hereby consent to providing all the following statements, including all attachments herein, and any testimony they want me to give as evidence. -XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX

Signed up XXXX XXXX with XXXX XXXX XXXX for dogs care. Had payments taken from checking account each month until XXXX of XXXX. Was paying {$44.00} monthly. Twice they increased but never notified me. I only saw the increase when checking my statements. Then I would call to let them know that I couldnt have this do this because Im on a set income. I called to cancel XXXX of XXXX was told I couldnt cancel. So I kept paying. Calling back I was told have to call XXXX moths before plan renewal, so I did. My pets lat visit was XXXX XXXX XXXX. So I called to let them know that I wanted 2 cancel plan being that I had to notify them XXXX months in advance. I have been talked 2 so rudely each time I tried to get someone to understand that I could no longer afford to keep plan and pay. They talked over me and told me there was no one that was over them that I could get any help from. I male even told me what not to say to they person he was transferring me to. I continued to pay {$260.00} from XXXX XXXX until XX/XX/XXXX. I never received any corespondents from them. Then a letter from collections, stating they received a bill that was a 120 days pass due for {$130.00}. I called back to XXXX asking where was the money that was paid to XXXX by my bank. Young lady asked when was that paid as if she had no record of that. At this point and time the collection amount is {$310.00}. That would be twice the amount of & XXXX plus the collection fee of {$47.00}. I have asked where is the money received from bank that would have taken care of the collection fee {$130.00}. I paid XXXX without any problems except when they put through increases. Iihave been informed I was paying double for shots that all dogs only need on each year But the worm exams are taken twice a year. Even with paying automatically I still paid out of pocket when they would say she needed something else when they had me to drop pet off I had to tell them not to do anything extra until they spoke with me This what they didnt like when I wanted to know what dog needed that my plan didnt over. They began to start treating me differently when I would go in or call in. Then they stopped giving me printouts of services rendered. When I called IC System about the collection, I was given the total {$31000.00} and the bill will be put in for a Judgement on XX/XX/XXXX. They stated could settle for {$200.00}. But I keep asking where is the money paid to XXXX from bank That would pay the only bill received as the amount due & XXXX. XXXX never sent bill tome until it was sent in for collection. I will appreciate all that will keep this from gong on my credit. Sincerely, I Thank All!,

I requested internet services from XXXX on XXXX XXXX, XXXX. The technician scheduled to set up the internet services at my residence never showed up during his scheduled window of time, nor did anyone call to reschedule. I never received the hardware that was part of my internet services requested because the technician never came. A bill was received dated XXXX XXXX totaling {$110.00}, I did not pay this bill because I did not receive the internet services. I called XXXX to explain the situation and close the account, as services had not been rendered. I explained that I would not be paying the bill dated XXXX XXXX and wanted to close my account. The person I was speaking to could not cancel my account themselves, apparently, so they transferred me to the account cancellation department. As soon as I was connected to a representative in the account cancellation department, I was hung up on. For personal reasons, I moved out of the residence I requested internet services for during the first week of XXXX XXXX. I received a bill dated XXXX XXXX totaling {$190.00} and called XXXX again to officially cancel the account, as my first conversation with them did not result in cancellation. The account was officially cancelled with XXXX over the phone on XXXX XXXX, XXXX with the balance owed being {$0.00}, confirmation # XXXX ( I have a record of one version of the cancellation confirmation number being # XXXX ). I received another bill dated XXXX XXXX totaling {$190.00}. I called XXXX Customer Service again to confirm the cancellation and that no amount was owed. I received yet another bill dated XXXX XXXX totaling {$300.00}. This time, I determined that calling representatives was not effectively clearing the account balance and stopping the bills from being sent. I wrote a letter dated XXXX XXXX ( photo attached as a file to this complaint ) confirming the sequence of events, my account number, and my cancellation confirmation number. I detached the portion of the bill you are supposed to include with your mailed payment, included it with the letter I wrote, and mailed both to XXXX. I received a letter from I.C. System, Inc., a debt collecting agency, dated XXXX XXXX, XXXX requesting that I remit payment for the amount of {$300.00} with XXXX being the creditor. I will send a letter on XXXX XXXX, XXXX to I.C. System, Inc. to request verification of the debt and that they contact me no further, outside of debt verification, while I dispute the debt. I am submitting this complaint today ( XXXX XXXX, XXXX ) in an effort to get all parties at XXXX on the same page, so that I no longer have this " debt '' for services not rendered.

In late XX/XX/2019 I received a notification from my credit monitoring service that there was a collection added to my XXXX credit file. I immediately contacted IC systems and paid the medical they were collecting on behalf of XXXX XXXX. The amount owed cleared my account on XX/XX/2019. The collection was removed from my XXXX Credit report as per the agreement with IC system in mid-XX/XX/2019. On XX/XX/XXXX I was alerted that the same item by IC system for the same amount had been re-added to my XXXX credit report 2 days earlier. I immediately contacted IC Systems where a very rude representative ( he was dismissive and did not want to hear what I had to say ) hung up on me. I called back and another lady answered and was kind enough to look at my file and confirm that I had in fact paid and that it was updated back in XX/XX/2019. I had paid the agreed upon amount and they had removed it from my credit report. She advised she would notify her supervisor and her supervisor would call me the next day. The next day came and went and no one from IC systems called me back. I waited and called again on the XX/XX/XXXX. To which no one helped even after 2.5 hours on the phone and over 7 different transfers. I even called XXXX XXXX XXXX which reported that IC systems never told them ( XXXX XXXX XXXX ) that I had in fact made a payment back in XX/XX/XXXX. I asked the XXXX XXXX XXXX representative to stay on the line and confirm to IC Systems that this was the same date of service and not a duplicate. He stayed on the phone while I was transferred 7 more time and no one would speak to him or I to clarify this situation. Currently my credit score/report are taking a significant hit because these two companies can not get on the same page and report correctly to the Credit Bureau, even after confirming payment. I am at a loss at the lack of customer service with IC Systems staff. I am significantly upset that something I handled so promptly is taking this long to handle. No to mention that ALL of this would have been avoided if XXXX XXXX XXXX would have billed BOTH my insurances for the service they provided, and followed up with the required information my insurance requested from them. So not only did I pay for a collection that I was OVER insured for, but now I am dealing with IC System and their defunct way of damaging my credit report without concern, even after I paid. I hope no one else has to deal with situations like this but I see that this is common practice with these two companies. I ask that my credit report be correctly updated and the collection that was placed on my credit file erroneously be removed.

I recieved a letter in mid XX/XX/XXXX ( Dated XX/XX/XXXX ) from a debt collection comapny named I.C. System Inc ( XXXX. XXXX XXXX, XXXX XXXX, MN XXXX ) stating that I owed {$100.00} to from a debt owed to XXXX. I have never had XXXX service for anything ( phone, internet, tv ). I had when I was originally buying my new home in Maryland ( I signed the paperwork in XX/XX/XXXX, however I did not move into it until XX/XX/XXXXas I was on military orders in FL until XX/XX/XXXX ) looked into getting XXXX service, and provided XXXX some basic information in order to get pricing infomration for my area. I however went with XXXX XXXX service rather than XXXX and never had XXXX service hooked up. At one point several months after having moved into my new home ( possibly XX/XX/XXXX timeframe ) recieved a bill from XXXX. I called XXXX and was able to talk to a customer service representative who confirmed that I never utilized the service and removed my account from their system. I believed at the time that this had resolved the issue, until I recieved the letter from I.C. System. I immediately called I.C. System to attempt to resolve the issue. Their customer service represntative told me that the collection account would be placed in a disputed status and that I would have to send in proof to show that I did not have any XXXX services at my home. I did this ( original documents sent to I.C. Systems are included as an atttachment to this complaint - updated to show that I have continued to utilize the same services ) and did not hear anything back from either XXXX, nor I.C. Systems so I considered the issue resolved once again. That was until I saw my credit score drop drastically last month and was very concerned about this especially due to the recent XXXX leaks, as well as the fact that I am in the XXXX and XXXX had my information at the time they expeirenced a massive data breach as well. I keep a tight eye on my finances and do not like to have deragotry marks on my record especially when I have attempted twice now to resolve this issue. The proof I provided is substantial as it coverd the entire timeframe that I had been in this new home ( I moved into the home in XX/XX/XXXX ). Prior to that I was on XXXX XXXX XXXX to XXXX FL at XXXX XXXX. I would like to resolve this issue as quickly as possible as I was planning on buying a new car near the end of the year for my wife and the massive hit to my credit report for a debt that I am in no way responsible for is not something that I would like to have on my record. Please let me know if there is anything you need from me in order to expedite this result.

On XX/XX/2022, I sent a letter to IC Systems because I noticed a debt reporting to which I did not have any knowledge. I was denied the dunning period and the account was intentionally reported to my credit causing my score to drop drastically. My rights were violated because I was not notified of the alleged debt owed and when I tried to fix the issue, the debt was immediately transferred so that I could not even settle the debt, if that was even a possibility. Since I was not notified of the deletion, I checked a later report. I immediately contacted IC Systems XXXX, XXXX and XXXX by mail to make them all aware of the account being added without verification and the violations that occurred. At that time, on XX/XX/2022 I sent an invoice to be paid as a result of the violations and intentional and willful harm this unverified account caused me. I have included the tracking number for the documentation sent below on tracking USPS receipt. I was ignored again, same as before by senior management and the owner of the company. Below are a list of violations that occurred with IC System and still to this date, no true resolution has occurred as I was harmed intentionally and I do believe it was done so with malice and I am unable to get any communication from anyone. I do not believe they will communicate with me under any circumstances that are just between them and myself. Violations that occurred are as follows : 15 U.S. Code 1692g ( a ) Notice of debt 15 U.S. Code 1692g ( a ) ( 1 ) the amount of the debt ; 15 U.S. Code 1692g ( a ) ( 2 ) the name of the creditor to whom the debt is owed ; 15 U.S. Code 1692g ( a ) ( 3 ) a statement that unless the consumer, within thirty days after receipt of the notice, disputes the validity of the debt, or any portion thereof, the debt will be assumed to be valid by the debt collector ; 15 U.S. Code 1692g ( a ) ( 4 ) a statement that if the consumer notifies the debt collector in writing within the thirty-day period that the debt, or any portion thereof, is disputed, the debt collector will obtain verification of the debt or a copy of a judgment against the consumer and a copy of such verification or judgment will be mailed to the consumer by the debt collector ; 15 U.S. Code 1692g ( a ) ( 5 ) a statement that, upon the consumers written request within the thirty-day period, the debt collector will provide the consumer with the name and address of the original creditor, if different from the current creditor. 15 U.S. Code 1692g ( b ) Disputed debts 15 U.S. Code 1692g ( c ) Admission of liability 15 U.S. Code 1692g ( e ) Notice provisions

I was a XXXX XXXX customer with autopay ( XXXX on time payments ) since at least XX/XX/XXXX. I left XXXX in XX/XX/XXXX. They charged my credit card the full amount of service one month later, even though they always billed in advance. They also did this the prior month when I took a family member off my family plan. There was also no prorating of charges. When I called XXXX to ask for an invoice to see what i was paying for ( 3 calls : in XXXX, XXXX and XX/XX/XXXX ) they did not explain it well to me ( they used extremely complicated " in house '' jargon ), and refused to mail me an invoice, saying that I had paperless pay so they could not mail me anything. However, I no longer had access to my verizon account online. I was fed up, so I disputed the {$51.00} charge with XXXX, my credit card company, on XX/XX/XXXX. On XX/XX/XXXX, instead of responding appropriately to XXXX, XXXX reported me delinquent to XXXX and sent the {$51.00} to collections with IC Systems. They later reported me to XXXX, as well. I disputed the debt with XXXX but it appears they " sided '' with XXXX. ( I had to call them a second time because the dispute resolution forms they mailed me made no sense ). I tried calling XXXX 8+ times over the month of XXXX. I was hung up on repeatedly ( I was not being irate, or raising my voice ) and had reps tell me " I can't hear you '' when I had full service and have never dropped a call from my home, almost as if that were a strategy that XXXX taught their reps, and multiple customer service reps gave conflicting information or made promises that were not fulfilled. For example, on XX/XX/XXXX, a XXXX customer service rep kindly told me he would remove the charge from my account and that everything would be resolved in 48 hours. On a subsequent call a few days later, I learned he had no capacity to do that because the " debt '' was already in collections. I paid the amount today ( XX/XX/XXXX ) through IC systems debt collectors because I essentially had no recourse, I was bullied into paying it. There is no justification for a company to : - Not provide an invoice - Not respond to a credit card dispute, which is what made the bill turn negative anyway - Not give me any advance warning that a bill was going to collections For this piddly amount to negatively affect my credit score for the next 7 years on my credit reports -- - after about 140 on time payments -- seems unjust. To make matters worse, I am currently house and / or apartment hunting and am afraid that, despite today 's payment, I will be denied housing or charged more for a mortgage.

I am writing to file a complaint with the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau ( CFPB ) against the XXXX XXXX XXXX and XXXX XXXX and their debt collection company, IC systems Inc., concerning their fraudulent billing practices and subsequent reporting of these bills to credit reporting agencies. The XXXX and XXXX XXXX 's deceptive actions have resulted in significant financial harm to the residents of XXXX XXXX. I wish to bring to your attention a series of articles that highlight the fraudulent practices of the XXXX XXXX XXXX and XXXX XXXX over the past five years. These articles present substantial evidence of the board 's deliberate misrepresentation and deceptive billing practices. Please find the relevant links below : Article 1 : XXXX XXXX XXXX Article 2 : XXXX XXXX XXXX Article 3 : XXXX XXXX XXXX Article 4 : XXXX XXXX XXXX Article 5 : XXXX XXXX XXXX These articles demonstrate numerous instances where the Sewerage and Water Board has sent fraudulent bills to the Citizens of the city of XXXX XXXX and subsequently reported these false debts to various credit reporting agencies. These actions have inflicted severe financial hardship, damaged credit histories, and imposed unwarranted negative consequences on innocent individuals. As a victim of the Sewerage and Water Board 's fraudulent billing and reporting, I have personally received inaccurate bills, which were then reported to credit reporting agencies without any valid basis. These erroneous reports have significantly impacted my creditworthiness and caused significant distress. I respectfully request that the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau conducts a thorough investigation into the fraudulent billing and reporting practices of the XXXX XXXX XXXX and XXXX XXXX. It is essential to hold the board accountable for their deceptive actions and prevent further harm to the residents of XXXX XXXX. Furthermore, I urge the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau to take appropriate measures to rectify the damage caused by the Sewerage and Water Board 's fraudulent practices. This should include enforcing penalties, facilitating the removal of inaccurate information from credit reports, and implementing safeguards to prevent future occurrences. Should you require any additional information or have any questions regarding this complaint, please do not hesitate to contact me. Thank you for your attention to this matter. I trust that the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau will take swift and decisive action to address the fraudulent billing and reporting practices of the XXXX XXXX XXXX and XXXX XXXX.

Breach of Contract : I received inferior engineered floors that were thrown down in 45 minutes. They cut up and ruined my stairwell carpet and did not place the new carpet for which I paid. I did not get thick padding. I did not get strips dividing the rooms. I received no glue and no nails. They hid the unilateral changed contract from me. I paid other companies to do for what I contracted with XXXX that it failed to do. Described below outlines my contract with XXXX : 1. Engineered flooring with glue ; I requested nails in lieu of glue that was promised and agreed upon. I did not get glue or nails and was told after the install, They could do it for an extra charge. I will not pay additional costs for something that was already paid, promised and expected. 2. Thick padding ; When confirming my install, I was informed and assured by each person I spoke with, Thicker padding in in the contract. I received no padding. I was promised they would fix it. I was then told, It is in your contract, but we didnt charge you for it, so. 3. Colored coordinated rounds They arrived on XX/XX/20 with white rounds. I did not let them in. They came back on XX/XX/20 with the correct quarter rounds to do the work. 4. Room separator strips ; ( I was told they separate all rooms ) I ordered and was promised room dividers and was told, We put them between every room. I did not receive room dividers. 5. New carpeting for staircase I selected and paid for carpeting and did not get carpeting. I never had a contract with XXXX. I made a contract with XXXX. XXXX stated it was not XXXX and they are their own company. XXXX or XXXX accepted the agreed upon resolution of {$2900.00} and then XXXX informed me inXX/XX/XXXX they accepted the resolution before Arbitration, but they were still going to ruin my credit. I asked XXXX, You are saying that you did not accept the settlement, She stated, We accepted it. XXXX breached its contract when it unilaterally changed the contract. They promised to fix their breaches, but ignored the over 90 inquires I made for resolution. The floors sink and crackle when walking on them. They lied and stated they inspected them. They have not been to my house to inspect nor correct my issues ; and only attempted to put carpet on the steps after I filed a dispute. They gave carpet install dates on days I had a scheduled XXXX and when I was not in town and would not address the floors. I wanted the corrections done at the same time. I gave up and went to other contractors and paid other companies to perform what I paid XXXX to do. Please see attachments

I was notified by I.C. Systems, Inc., a debt collections company, on XX/XX/2022 via mail regarding an alleged debt. I have reason to believe I do not owe this debt because it the result of an unauthorized balanced billing, pursuant to Florida Law Section 559.72 ( 9 ). I contest that this debt is legally without merit and name XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX and I.C. Systems, Inc. in this complaint. XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX has fraudulently reported the provider non billable amount to this collections agency, disregarding the negotiated fees between the Preferred Provider and the PPO. According to documentation provided by XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, who was in network with XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX during the date of service and used their pay schedule, the patient responsibility for services rendered is {$2600.00} and the provider non billable amount is {$1000.00}. The patient has already satisfied their patient responsibility of {$2600.00}, having paid a total of {$2700.00} to XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, as reflected in their previous contractual payment plan. Please reference the supporting documentation that reflects the information stated above. As a result, XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX has fraudulently reported this debt and I.C. Systems, Inc. is attempting to collect a debt that is not my responsibility. I have attempted multiple times to resolve this with the provider, however they are falsely claiming they are out of network with my insurance agency and have threatened to send the 'unpaid balance ' to collections multiple times. XXXX XXXX XXXX has denied these claims as they did not receive sufficient information from the provider. Both the provider and myself have sent multiple appeals to XXXX XXXX XXXX, however, XXXX XXXX has informed the provider multiple times that they need new and additional information in order to process the claim. The provider failed to provide new information and I had to submit two separate claims to the XXXX XXXX on behalf of the provider. Ultimately, the insurance company did not process the claim and the provider sent the non-billable amount to debt collections. I fear that XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX is taking advantage of patients and not acting in good faith when attempting to bill insurance and process claims in a timely fashion and I.C. Systems, Inc. is complacent. Instead, they are using balance billing and the threat of debt collections agencies to intimidate patients into paying what insurance does not. This is a scare tactic that is unethical and should be looked into further as it is a fraudulent procedure. Please see supporting documentation attached

IC System Correspondence XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX MN XXXX Re : Account on XXXX & XXXX credit reports in dispute Creditor Contact Details : IC Systems Balance Reported : {$1500.00} Most recent file identification number from XXXX XXXX XXXX Account Number from XXXX XXXX Since XX/XX/19 I have written proof of IC Systems refusing to remove this inaccurate information or stop trying to collect on the alleged debt as they stated they had proof I owed anything to IC Systems. I also requested IC Systems contract as I know this company purchased that debt that's already been written off and was attempted collect it from me illegitimately. I have not now, nor have I ever done business with IC Systems thus no contract has ever been provided. For them to mark this inaccuracy and lie about investigating it and refusing to remove it is willful noncompliance with the FCRA laws. I have already reached an agreement with the XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX and their roles in allowing you to furnish this information without my written consent against my continued efforts to remove them from my account. I demand that IC Systems not only remove this from my report but I also demand that IC Systems pay me what is owed to me according to the law. I have actual damages, there are {$1000.00} violations attached to each time it was reported. Each month is a separate violation, and I am giving this company one opportunity to cure this situation, or we shall allow a federal judge to look at all these deceptive forms & calls that have been presented to me over the past years in support of your wrongdoing. It all stems from the false misrepresentation of IC Systems on my consumer report. I am due justice and you owe me Civil Liability for every month it reported on my consumer report. I am willing to settle for {$20000.00} and you will not have to pay attorney fees or we can add my consumer lawyer to this situation and under the FCRA you will pay him as a result. Your choice. I have dealt with this harassment for long enough. For far too long my character has been defamed by comments left by IC Systems on my report against my efforts to resolve the situation outside of FEDERAL court. I expect a settlement offer within 10 days of this notice or further legal action will be initiated. I have enclosed two pieces of evidence that prove just how long I have been fighting and the type of response and willful non-compliance I was getting from IC Systems in response to my disputes with each XXXX XXXX XXXX, credit reporting agencies.

Hi, how can you be late and past due on collection accounts? Why are you failing to provide me detail request to validate this account? I was shocked when I reviewed my credit report this week and I found multiple inaccuracies on my credit report from the 3 major credit bureaus from a collection company that I never have dealt with before. I've attempted several times to ratify the issue with the original creditors and credit bureaus and they still reporting inaccurate, unverifiable information. I have disputed this item with the credit reporting agency and they reported you confirmed the account as valid. I honestly do not believe to ever have any relationship with this collection agency or original creditor. Also there are several inaccuracies with this account the way it's reporting and that's a total violation of FCRA and FDCPA laws and regulations. In a good faith effort to resolve the matter amicably, I must demand proof of this debt, specifically the alleged contract or other instrument bearing my signature, as well as proof of your authority in this matter. Absent such proof, you must correct any erroneous reports of this past debt as mine. I am writing to request that you please provide the following information : 1. Please evidence your authorization under 15 USC 1692 ( e ) and 15 USC 1692 ( f ) in this alleged matter. 2. What is your authorization of law for your collection of information? 3. What is your authorization of law for your collection of this alleged debt? 4. Please evidence your authorization to do business or operate in this state. 5. Please evidence proof of the alleged debt, including the alleged contract or other instrument bearing my signature. 6. Please provide a complete account history, including any charges added for collection activity. You have 30 days upon receipt of this letter to provide strict proof of contract. In the event you can not provide strict proof of contract, you must cease and desist any and all collection efforts and immediately remove any derogatory information reported to the consumer reporting agencies. In addition, you will need to provide me your agreement, in writing, that you are closing your file, ceasing collecting activity, and deleting all information related to this reference number from any and all credit reports youve furnished the information to. In the event you transfer this account to an attorney without providing proof of contract, and proving your claim, he/she will be immediate reported to the XXXX XXXX XXXX and XXXX XXXX XXXX for code of ethics violations.

My dog was enrolled in XXXX XXXX XXXX vet plan, this is true, no dispute HOWEVER, XXXX XXXX XXXX Breached their Duty of Care to my Pet, negating to provide proper XXXX services when scheduled and it is my contention waiting for them to reschedule caused my pet further damage. My dog had XXXX and was to have XXXX checked and removed and also had developed what we later found out was a XXXX, which began on her XXXX and ultimately spread everywhere. She had her XXXX on XX/XX/XXXX..her appointment at XXXX was XX/XX/XXXX which was approximately two weeks and they called and cancelled as they had some doctors leave their employ and were unable to see my dog who needed to be seen. I did let the girl who called know that XXXX needed to be seen and she advised they were arranging for vets to come in and would call me. I never got a call, XXXX in spite of the collar we had for her and the XXXX got worse. I called the Bureau of Veterinary Medicine and found her old doctor who was aware of her severe health history and eventually took XXXX to see her, by that time, I had spoken with a doctor and used home remedies like XXXX to relieve some of the symptoms but XXXX was XXXX by this point. Once I got all of this done and the doctor was finally able to see XXXX it cost me XXXX and this was a discounted price because they knew I had saved XXXX through a animal rescue and did not have this kind of money. The credit agency is performing a service however, they have been informed that they should not be trying to collect this debt. If this debt appears on my credit report, I have sought legal representation and will dispute same with documentation. If they file in a court of law, I will also file suit against XXXX XXXX XXXX for neglect and damages done to my dog. A complaint has been filed with MD state against the clinic involved and XXXX XXXX XXXX in general. I have explained to the collection agency who calls non-stop, that I will pay a bill, but I will gladly meet them in court before I pay this billl as their client breached our contract by breaching their duty of care to my pet and their veterinary oaths hanging on their wall. I will never deal with them or with XXXX ever again. There are too many venues around who actually care about pets. I used to spend all of my pet money in XXXX as well as my friends, the animal rights people and boyfriend. I have not even begun to publish the complaints I have about how my Hope was handled and how I was harassed by both XXXX and this credit agency for money. Thank you for your time, XXXX XXXX

I originally held a debt with XXXX XXXX XXXX about 3 years ago from the submission date of this complaint. I called to discuss with their customer service representative before the debt was sent to collections, and it was agreed that the debt was invalid. XXXX XXXX XXXX sent my debt to collections anyways to a company called XXXX XXXXy, if it was in error or out of spite I am not sure. I was able to successfully dispute that debt on my credit report on XX/XX/XXXX of XXXX and it was removed from my credit report promptly. It appears as though this debt was sold to I.C. Systems around XX/XX/XXXX. This was done without first notifying them that the debt was found invalid already on the part of XXXX XXXX, and they recently published another collection remark on my credit report for the same debt account. As far as I'm aware, it is illegal to duplicate a mark on someone's credit twice for the same debt account, regardless of if it's valid or invalid. This puts either I.C. Systems or XXXX XXXX at risk for litigation, as it goes against the Fair Credit Reporting Act and could potentially be considered harassment or an attempt to damage my credit in retaliation for successfully disputing it. Note, it has been disputed again, and found invalid on XX/XX/XXXX. This debt has been found invalid by each of the 3 credit reporting bureaus as well. I would like to have this matter dealt with and this debt dropped. It's an invalid debt stemming from either a clerical error or miscommunication on the part of a customer service representative. I would like to put an end to the harassment and attempts to damage my credit, and if possible I would like to see legal ramifications levied against XXXX XXXX for selling invalid debt to another collection agency, and against I.C. Systems for double reporting an invalid debt to a credit bureau. In addition, XXXX XXXX XXXX should be held liable for going against a verbal agreement and selling invalid debt to collections, but that is a matter for the collections companies to deal with and not me. I've done my duty of disputing this debt on multiple occasions through multiple companies. I have reached out directly to I.C. Systems to dispute the debt with them today as well. I think 3 years of weekly to daily calls and emails is more than enough to constitute harassment, not to mention they never leave a voicemail so it is impossible to identify the company or account and dispute it with them without calling and being harassed and told to pay up. Please put an end to this matter once and for all.

I have been receiving collection notices from XXXX different XXXX collection companies, attempting to collect this amount, for at least a year to two years. The first company failed to validate the debt and ceased communication with me when it failed in its duty to validate. After there were no longer communications with this company, I received a second set of collection notices from a different debt collection company seeking the same amount of money. XXXX obviously sent the alleged debt off to a different debt collection company when the first was not successful. Again, I asked in writing for validation of the debt from this second company as required by law. The validation failed to identify the debt 's particulars in order for me to determine if it was a valid debt. After I pointed this out in writing to the debt collection company, it sent me a letter stating that the debt would not be collected upon and that my credit report would not reflect that the debt was under collection. I assumed XXXX would honor this resolution. Today, XXXX is trying to collect this alleged debt from yet again a third debt collection company -- even after a finding by its own debt collection agency that there is no valid debt and that the debt is off my credit report. XXXX continues to try to collect this debt despite my attempts to learn more about it ; contest it again ( at least six times already, including times with XXXX directly and despite a finding in my favor by its second collection agency ). I also contested this debt when it was directly an issue between me and XXXX. XXXX continues to hold this debt against me, continues to harass me with different debt collection agency notices, despite findings that it is not my debt from their own agents. Furthermore, XXXX continues to carry this debt in its accounts as delinquent. This third collection agency sent me a letter within days after I called XXXX to look into changing my service with it. XXXX said it could not change my service unless I paid this old, contested bill. That was when I found out it was still on my records with XXXX. It continues to share information wrongly with debt collection agency after debt collection agency. What is even more egregious is that XXXX used my communication with it for different service to reassert the alleged debt, and also to deny me a change in my service. Fortunately, I did not agree in writing to change my service with XXXX at that time because of XXXX anemic business practice history with me, both personally and through my business.

XX/XX/XXXX, I reported my XXXX XXXX as stolen. The phone was placed on a seasonal hold. I bought the phone for {$310.00} refurbished from XXXX XXXX. I had been a customer over 20 years. XXXX corporate edited the bill and closed the case. Unfortunately, on several occasions, XXXX opened the line for the unauthorized user and billed me. They wanted to charge me a {$250.00} deductible to replace the phone prior to corporate overriding their billing after the lines were opened more than once. Were supposed to give a access code, but they continued to bill me for the thefts usage. I called the phone on XXXX and a young lady would answer stating that someone sold her the phone. Lastly, they tried up charges of {$190.00} and Id had enough, so I reached out to corporate escalations. I was told Id receive a call back. I waited a week, and had been paying them on autopay. No call backs were initiated, so I called XXXX XXXX XXXX and ported my line over to them because my contract had ended with XXXX years ago! In XXXX, XXXX, I became XXXX & XXXX customer. XXXX asked that I returned the main line XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX after I ported my line over to XXXX XXXX XXXX ). I sent the tracking # and receipt to XXXX for dispute via the first collection misrepresentation on my account. There collection was removed from my account in XX/XX/XXXX only to be reapplied for the same false collection claim that was removed and resubmitted XX/XX/XXXX by IC Systems collections. Stating that my account was 30 days late for {$1100.00}. My bill was paid in full XXXX XX/XX/XXXX XXXX, my account was closed properly, and they received the XXXX XXXX XXXX back in perfect shape. However, they kept billing for the stolen phone and the last bill before I left XXXX in XXXX was XXXX, now its over {$1100.00} and my account was closed. The theft of the XXXX XXXX is still a working number on my account by their own discretion. Im no longer a customer and XXXX breached their insurance contract, my report of a stolen phone, and closing the account. Theyre back with a new collection agency and causing undue stress on me, I strongly believe its because they sold out to XXXX and theyre not aware or could care less about XXXX charades. I had them removed from all 3 credit bureaus because I turned in proof that Im not a customer after over 20 + years of numerous refunds and edits to my accounts and unauthorized use and multiple errors. I feel its unfair that they can hire multiple collections agencies for a fraudulent claim that has been deleted for the same false charges.

I have tried unsuccessfully to get an item removed from my credit report. It is a debt that originally came from XXXX XXXX for cable service. The amount of the alleged debt is {$140.00}. I had a service contract with XXXX XXXX for cable but became dissatisfied when they were bought or acquired by XXXX XXXX XXXX. I called to end my service and was told I would have to pay the amount of {$140.00} even though my original contract was with XXXX XXXX and not XXXX XXXX XXXX. My service with the company ended sometime at the end of XXXX. I believe it was XX/XX/XXXX or XX/XX/XXXX.XXXX XXXX XXXX then sent my account to collections within a year of my service ending. It showed up on my credit report and I did not dispute it. That debt has since been sold to several other debt collection agencies and the info listed was not correct so I disputed it with XXXX XXXX and XXXX XXXX determined it was not accurate and it was removed from my credit report twice by XXXX XXXX from two separate collection agencies. Now it has been sold again to the debt collection agency " I C System ''. The account was opened with them in XX/XX/XXXX. I have called IC System and requested information on that debt because the dates are invalid. I contacted them on or about XX/XX/XXXX as well as on or about XX/XX/XXXX. I have yet to receive any sort of documentation from IC System. I also disputed this debt with XXXX XXXX twice and was told they verified the debt was accurate. I asked XXXX XXXX to send me the original contract and all of my payment history because this is not accurate at all. I am currently awaiting an answer from XXXX XXXX. The investigation was supposed to be finished on XX/XX/XXXX but it is still under investigation over two months after I filed the dispute. It is clear that the debt collection agencies are reselling this debt from XX/XX/XXXX when it gets removed from my credit report and then the new agency that buys the account is listing the account as new when it is an account that is nearing it's statute of limitations. This is fraud. You can not keep a collection account on a credit report by changing the dates to show it as a new account. I have done my due diligence in requesting from both XXXX XXXX as well as IC System to send me the original contract as well as my payment history. If neither company can provide me with my requested information, then they can not prove that it is a valid debt. I would also like to know how XXXX XXXX determined this debt to be accurate when they did their first investigation in XXXX XXXX XXXX.

A few months ago, I disputed a collection account on my credit reports from I.C. Systems ( collecting for XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX on the XXXX XXXX XXXX to which after an investigation, it was found that they did not have the documents to prove I actually owed any debt and therefore on XX/XX/2022 I received a response and a letter detailing that they would be requesting deletion of their negative tradeline. Now there was a discrepancy in the amount owed they put on the letter compared to what was already being reported, ( which I didnt think would matter, as well as I think they did on purpose to cause these problems ) but I didnt really complain as I was for sure it would be automatically deleted from all my reports anyways. NONE of the credit reporting agencies removed them by their selves because I know for a FACT IC Systems Inc, did not actually request deletion, because I had to dispute the account myself on XXXX XXXX XXXX, who after a few short days deleted the negative trade line themselves. Disputed with XXXX ( who typically is the first to remove trade lines, which shows IC Systems never requested deletion. On XX/XX/2022 I disputed the collection with XXXX & provided the letter to them via PDF to prove that it should be deleted. On XX/XX/2022 I received the results and was told that the information was verified and accurately reporting which was a problem as I wasnt disputing if it was accurate, it needed to be deleted. So so reopened the case under a new topic saying the account is indeed closed, and today XX/XX/2022 I got the results and once again they said the information was accurately reporting. But this time they said they contacted the furnished of the information ( IC Systems Inc ) and that the furnished told them the account was in fact reporting accurately. BOTH XXXX XXXX I.C. Systems Inc are both being negligent and in fact are disrupting my financial future by not doing right by what IC Systems has already said they would. This reporting is actually quite illegal, and my attorney is filing litigation against XXXX XXXX IC Systems. Remove the trade line and litigation will cease. This isnt a joke or a game. And as for IC Systems changing the supposed amount owed and making it differ on the letter compared to what you are reporting is a very under hand tactic and is also extremely illegal as well. I dont know what type of games you all have going but this is why collection agencies have such bad reputations, but if you look at all their complaints this seems like normal practice for them unfortunately.

Be advised this is not a refusal to pay, but a notice that your claim is disputed and validation is requested. Under the Fair Debt collection Practices Act ( FDCPA ), I have the right to request validation of the debt you say I owe you. I am requesting proof that I am indeed the party you are asking to pay this debt, and there is some contractual obligation that is binding on me to pay this debt. This is NOT a request for verification or proof of my mailing address, but a request for VALIDATION made pursuant to 15 USC 1692g Sec. 809 ( b ) of the FDCPA. I respectfully request that your offices provide me with competent evidence that I have any legal obligation to pay you. At this time I will also inform you that if your offices have or continue to report invalidated information to any of the three major credit bureaus ( XXXX, XXXX, XXXX XXXX ), this action might constitute fraud under both federal and state laws. Due to this fact, if any negative mark is found or continues to report on any of my credit reports by your company or the company you represent, I will not hesitate in bringing legal action against you and your client for the following : Violation of the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act and Defamation of Character. I am sure your legal staff will agree that non-compliance with this request could put your company in serious legal trouble with the FTC and other state or federal agencies. If your offices are able to provide the proper documentation as requested in the following declaration, I will require 30 days to investigate this information and during such time all collection activity must cease and desist. Also, during this validation period, if any action is taken which could be considered detrimental to any of my credit reports, I will consult with legal counsel for suit. This includes any listing of any information to a credit-reporting repository that could be inaccurate or invalidated. If your offices fail to respond to this validation request within 30 days from the date of your receipt, all references to this account must be deleted and completely removed from my credit file and a copy of such deletion request shall be sent to me immediately. Furthermore, any reporting of this debt to the credit bureaus prior to allowing me to validate it may be a violation of the Fair Credit Reporting Act, which can allow me to seek damages from a collection agent. It would be advisable that you and your client assure that your records are in order before I am forced to take legal action.

My name is XXXX XXXX. I purchased an XXXX from XXXX in XX/XX/XXXX. I had an account open from XXXX XXXX. I closed that account so I could assume responsibility for the phone and phone number I had from my ex-boyfriends account ( he had disconnected the line in XX/XX/XXXX, which is why I went to go open a new account in only my name, but then he agreed to let me keep that original phone I had. ) I wasn't able to pay the account in full at cancellation, but months later I did pay the account in full. I have a letter from XXXX XXXX XXXX and a Bank Statement showing I paid {$1000.00} to XXXX on XX/XX/XXXX. ( I made the payment XX/XX/XXXX and it posted on XX/XX/XXXX. ) For the past few months my children and I have been receiving harassing calls from a company called I C System. The call says scam likely on the phone. I called XXXX to report the calls and they advised me to block the calls and download and pay for an app called XXXX. After months of ongoing issues, I asked what else I could do. An adviser suggested switching from XXXX to XXXX because XXXX is more secure and less likely to have scam calls. After having 3 XXXX phones for less than 1 year, I purchased 3 new XXXX phones. I brought in the XXXX XXXX with hope to use it as a trade-in. I was told the phone was blocked because money was owed on the account and it was sent to collections. I told the person helping me I paid XXXX in XXXX. He called the collections agency. A woman with a rude tone told me over speaker-phone that I had never made a payment. I was embarrassed in front of a store full of people. I wasn't allowed to use that phone for any credit. The XXXX rep became rude, charged me full price for all three new XXXX I asked for new phone numbers for the new phones. He said he could show me but there would be a charge. I said I would be ok with that, I just don't want harassing calls anymore. I told him I wanted to handle it right then. He said, no you don't want to pay {$20.00}, just call customer service when you get home. He put the new items in the bag and called over another customer. I have been getting emails regarding I C System updating XXXX, and XXXX. XXXX XXXX had to be the one to notify me. I recognized the name from the annoying phone calls immediately that have been plaguing my family all year. We block a number, they call from another number. XXXX should have never sent my account to collections. I paid my account in full. They broke the law, my children and I have been harassed, and my credit has been adversely affected.

I closed this account in XX/XX/XXXX after multiple calls about billing issues that happened the previous couple of months. On XX/XX/XXXX I spent over an hour and a half on the phone with them disputing a XXXX install fee for an installation that didnt happen and they just kept telling me I had to pay it. Then preceded to tell me that if I had telephone service I didnt need the internet but if I had internet I had to have telephone service and when I questioned that the agent said I supposedly called in on XX/XX/XXXX at XXXX and canceled my phone and when I asked what time did I call in and cancel my internet service he said there system didnt have a time stamp and when I repeated what he previously told me he said there system didnt have a date stamp. I asked to speak to his supervisor and when he got on the line I asked about the calls being recorded and told him if he went back to an hour and fifteen minutes he would hear the two conflicting stories the agent told me. He said ok then hung up on me. I called back and I let the first agent I spoke to know what happened and how upset I was about she transferred me to a agent named XXXX I explained all the issues I had with them and she said went ahead and closed the account and put credit on there to cover the install fee and the penalty fees for early termination so I didnt owe them anything. I received the final bills showing the credits and a XXXX balance. I thought it was all taken care of continued to receive junk mail from them saying they wanted me to come back. Then I received a collection letter from the first company in XX/XX/XXXX saying I owed XXXX {$750.00} I called them and they said XXXX closed my account in XX/XX/XXXX due to non payment I disputed it with them and called XXXX directly and disputed it they couldnt tell me where the charges came from but I had to pay it. Then I received another collection letter from a different company in XX/XX/XXXX this time saying I owed XXXX {$520.00} and they closed the account in XX/XX/XXXX I disputed it again. Then in XX/XX/XXXX I received another letter from a third collection company saying I owed XXXX {$350.00} I called them and they said XXXX close sed my account in XX/XX/XXXXand I told them this is the third company and I have disputed it each time and they keep changing the amount owed and now when they closed the account I paid the final bill minus the XXXX install fee and the agent put enough credit on my account to cover that and the early termination fees so I didnt owe them anything

I received a final statement from XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX via USPS mail on Saturday, XXXX XXXX, 2016. The notice was dated XXXX XXXX, 2016 and had been mailed an old address. Monday, XXXX XXXX, 2016 I contacted them via the phone number listed in the letterhead, explained I received the statement, needed to change my address, and would have the first of four installment payments in the mail soon. According to the document one option of payment was to make " 4 equal interest-free installments '' and " The 1st payment due within 30 days of receipt of this statement ''.

I again told them I wanted my call to be acknowledged and returned. I contacted the debt collector who confirmed XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX had made no attempts to rectify the misunderstanding, and it was suggested I dispute in writing with supporting documentation or my bad debt would by reported to credit bureaus on XXXX XXXX, 2016.

I am a XXXX-year-old XXXX vet on a fixed income with serious XXXX XXXX, I also suffer from XXXX and XXXX ( XXXX ). I went to XXXX in Late XXXX of 2019, I explained my condition to the clerk. The clerk was aware of my condition, was told that under no circumstances could my phone be disconnected it was part of my lifeline, she suggested that the account be placed on auto-pay which is the best means to ensure my account would be in great standing and no chance of being disconnected for non-payment. The following month I returned to the XXXX store and requested a tablet be added to my account, I was told an additional {$38.00} for activation was required, but first, payment was due. At that instant, I did both ; made a payment ( {$58.00} ) and paid for the tablet activation. Two days later my payment of {$58.00} was returned, not rejected and for the first time, my service was interrupted. I went, in person, back to the XXXX Store and voiced my concern. No one was able to explain what happened. The following month my service was interrupted a second time and my condition magnified a thousand. I was in panic mode. I no longer trusted this company to provide consistent uninterrupted service. I did not miss nor was I late paying them. The account was on auto-pay. I call management and got nowhere with them, I informed the representative that I had the right to break the contract due to a breach of trust. I was willing to pay for my devices on the payment plan that was agreed upon, but I could not continue to pay for a phone and data plan. It was not working for me and I was on a fixed income and could not pay for cellular two plans. I contracted XXXX XXXX with a similar plan and using auto-pay. I have had no issues. Since this time I have contacted the company several times concerning that issue and my willingness to pay on time for my devices as agreed on, still, I refused to pay for the data and service which they insisted upon. The balance was {$780.00} or so for the devices. I recently received notification by mail and phone from a collection company demanding {$1600.00} concerning this account, which I flat out refuse to pay due to my not owning this amount and secondly, after my willingness to pay for my devices on terms of the XXXX contract ; which was on a monthly basis, it was XXXX that failed to provide/render services for which I was paying, so, I was forced to secure what was needed for my peace of mind. What I asked from XXXX was reasonable. They were at fought.

Hi Unknown COLLECTION IC SYSTEM-acct # XXXX for {$410.00}???!!! ; Im confused and stressed and shocked when I reviewed my credit report this week and I found multiple inaccuracies on my credit report from the 3 major credit bureaus from a collection company that I never have dealt with before. I've attempted several times to ratify the issue with the original creditors and credit bureaus and they still reporting inaccurate, unverifiable information. I have disputed this item with the credit reporting agency and they reported you confirmed the account as valid. I honestly do not believe to ever have any relationship with this collection agency or original creditor. Also there are several inaccuracies with this account the way it's reporting and that's a total violation of FCRA and FDCPA laws and regulations. In a good faith effort to resolve the matter amicably, I must demand proof of this debt, specifically the alleged contract or other instrument bearing my signature, as well as proof of your authority in this matter. Absent such proof, you must correct any erroneous reports of this past debt as mine. I am writing to request that you please provide the following information : 1. Please evidence your authorization under 15 USC 1692 ( e ) and 15 USC 1692 ( f ) in this alleged matter. 2. What is your authorization of law for your collection of information? 3. What is your authorization of law for your collection of this alleged debt? 4. Please evidence your authorization to do business or operate in this state. 5. Please evidence proof of the alleged debt, including the alleged contract or other instrument bearing my signature. 6. Please provide a complete account history, including any charges added for collection activity. You have 30 days upon receipt of this letter to provide strict proof of contract. In the event you can not provide strict proof of contract, you must cease and desist any and all collection efforts and immediately remove any derogatory information reported to the consumer reporting agencies. In addition, you will need to provide me your agreement, in writing, that you are closing your file, ceasing collecting activity, and deleting all information related to this reference number from any and all credit reports youve furnished the information to.

XXXX customer service lacks integrity. The company really only understand money. On XX/XX/2018 a phone service was issued in my name by XXXX. Upon noticing the bill over a month later. I called them trying to find out what I supposedly had ordered and tried to shut it down. What I encountered was a ridiculous policy that does not allow customers to access their account if they don't know pertinent information. I did not know the information that XXXX needed besides my social and account number listed on statement. They needed passwords and the numbers off of products they supposedly sent me. I did not have possession of those items therefor I could speak on behalf of that account. I tried again by speaking to someone else and I was told that if I take my identification into the store I could be assisted with the account issue. I visited XXXX XXXX XXXX store in XXXX NJ. I encountered the same issue. I was told that the items sent to me had to be set up and therefore link to my identification, it was some sort of foolishness that didn't make much sense to me. The teal issue was that I did not have time to deal with this because I was working to full time jobs. I had no time to really spare to resolve the issue. Once I had time again I was told by a XXXX representative that I would be sent an identity theft form to take to a law enforcement office nearest me. I absolutely did not have time for this. It was their own policy that did not allow me the due diligence to properly understand why I had a bill summery coming in my name to my address. I wanted to know what identity was used to open an account with them and also where was my signature on a signed document. To this date I have not seen validity or verification from XXXX nor I C Systems Inc. The final bill summery from XXXX had a total charge of {$210.00}. Naturally, after I refused to pay, XXXX eventually turned the bill into a collector. That collector, I C System Inc. put the negative, erroneous information on both XXXX XXXX and XXXX credit reports. Yes, I did not answer I C Systems attempts to collect the debt. One reason is their unfair debt collecting practice. I immediately noticed that they were asking me to pay a higher amount then XXXX posed that I owed them. Their collection amount is {$260.00} that you can see in the attachment. In the state of NJ it is illegal to collect any amount greater than the debt. Enclosed you will also see the last billing amount from XXXX but the copy is in bad shape ( please excuse. )

XX/XX/23 I called IC Systems after having disputed it on my credit report because it was not my debt. IC Systems verified the debt with XXXX, but when I called them they didn't even know where the mailing address or service address was. They were unable to verify any key information on this debt, refused to send me validation of the debt, were forcing me to communicate in a way I did not want, and that was not convenient for me, requiring I file police reports for a debt that was not mine and I knew nothing about, and take legal action against I don't know who. This violated Regulation Z, F, FCBA, DTPA, federal and state debt collection laws, and more. XX/XX/23 I emailed them a letter notifying them of these violations, as well as their illegal actions to re-age this fraudulent debt. I also notified them this had been on my credit report before by 2 other creditors. The original was XXXX XXXX, mind you I live in XXXX XXXX and the other XXXX XXXX XXXX. Both times this had been tied to me in error, neither company was able to verify the debt, and in my last conversation with XXXX XXXX, they said they would remove this debt as they verified it was not mine. No details on the original creditor other than the name XXXX XXXX were provided by XXXX or IC Systems. They were unable to even provide this basic information or any validating information on this debt. They didn't have the dates of the supposed service, service address, payment history, or any records or bills of any kind. They also didn't have the last four of my social until I finally gave it to them, as they stated they needed it to look up the account. However, in the call transcript, you can hear the creditor representative talking to her boss saying there was no information. I have also attached a transcript of my call with IC Systems and a follow-up email letter. Yet it's been placed on my credit report again, re-aged and unverified. They have refused to verify it, or remove it from my credit report which has caused significant damage! In my initial dispute with XXXX, XXXX stated it was validated by the creditor, but failed to provide a means, method, or reason as to how it was validated if they didn't even know the address or dates of service this account was for. Thus XXXX failed to actually investigate and validate this debt as they are obligated to. Should this not be immediately remedied I fear I will have to seek out compensation from both the creditor and XXXX for the significant damage it has caused.

I had spectrum/charter internet for a short period of time when we moved to our new home. I work from home and require a good internet connection. I continuously lost connection and was told by IT after several attempts to fix the issue, that I needed to exchange the equipment at their local store. On XX/XX/2020 I returned both pieces of equipment to their XXXX location ( 2 part router ). They gave me a different router which was only 1 piece vs 2 this time. It wasn't long before that router wasn't work, so they sent a tech out and exchanged that router for 1 router identical to the 2nd router ( 1 part router ). After losing connection over and over and being threatened with my employment, I finally gave up and changed companies. I immediately returned the router. All routers were now in their possession and I paid my final bill timely. I later received a letter saying a router was not returned and immediately contacted their office. I wasted nearly 2 hours on the phone and was told they would look into locating the item. I figured they located it and all was well until a few months later, I received another letter saying I owe for a router. Once again, I contacted their office and it was a repeat of the prior conversation. I thought they finally rectified the situation, however, just learned that they instead reported it against my credit a few months back. I should not be penalized for their mishandling as I did my part to return all items timely. I only had their service for a few short months and it was a nightmare. Every time I called for tech support due to the router not working, I just kept getting transferred around. There was only 1 tech that attempted to help me, which was just before I exchanged the router instore. I immediately switched to XXXX and have no use for their router. It doesn't make sense that I would only return half of the 2 part router, and that they would agree to give me a new router, if I didn't return both pieces that day instore. To clarify, they're claiming the missing item is 1 of the 2 part routers ( initial router set ), which was returned instore on XX/XX/2020 in exchange for a 1 piece router. They would not exchange a new router had I not returned all equipment. I have wasted enough time going back and forth over a XXXX item which is absolutely ridiculous. Their employees should be more accountable and/or their systems should verify items returned. I thought the receipt he gave me was sufficient and sent it to the company multiple times.

I have attempted to resolve this issue once with IC System, Inc. ( " IC '' ) and the original creditor, XXXX XXXX XXXX -- in XX/XX/XXXX -- and one previous time with XXXX XXXX XXXX -- in XX/XX/XXXX -- which attempt went unanswered. I returned all of my XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX equipment to XXXX XXXX XXXX when I moved in XX/XX/XXXX, and thereby canceled the service. I have a shipment receipt from the XXXX XXXX ( XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX specific vendor for this purpose ) evidencing the return of all leased equipment. As of the date I returned the leased equipment, my bill should have been about {$250.00}. In XX/XX/XXXX and XX/XX/XXXX, XXXX XXXX XXXX proffered an invoice to me purporting to demonstrate a total amount due on my cancelled XXXX account in the amount of {$770.00}, which included charges for service, and charges for rented equipment, through XX/XX/XXXX. In XX/XX/XXXX, IC sent a collection notice from IC System for the same alleged debt. In XX/XX/XXXX, I sent letters, with numerous exhibits to both XXXX XXXX XXXX and IC. IC sought perfunctory evidence of the indebtedness from the creditor, which XXXX XXXX XXXX provided, and IC sent a new collection notice in XX/XX/XXXXor XX/XX/XXXX. The evidence provided by XXXX XXXX XXXX and relied upon by IC -- apparently without having been reviewed -- plainly contradicts the claim that my balance is {$770.00}, because the document shows that XXXX XXXX XXXX charged rental fees for equipment that had already been returned and was in its possession. ( I was not under a service contract at this time ; the term had ended in XX/XX/XXXX or early XX/XX/XXXX. ) Accordingly, even if I somehow still could possibly have had service at a residence I no longer occupied or had anything to do with, XXXX XXXX XXXX is still charging rental fees for equipment that had been returned. IC knew and knows of this defect, yet insists that I am on the hook for the {$770.00} figure. I have invited IC and XXXX XXXX XXXX to calculate the amount I owed in XX/XX/XXXXbut they have refused. IC is now posting the purported debt to the consumer reporting agencies, and I have informed IC that it should prepare to sue me. ( I am a financial services litigation attorney, and obviously have counter-claims in mind. ) I have always been willing and able to pay whatever balance was due on my XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX account as of XX/XX/XXXX. BUt I will not allow IC and XXXX XXXX XXXX to shake me down for indebtedness that I do not owe and never incurred in the first place.

I was reviewing my credit report the other day and noticed that my XXXX score had dropped several points. I check my credit reports 2-3 times per week and receive email alerts with any changes in my credit file on all 3 credit bureaus. This score decrease came out of nowhere, so I started investigating. Upon examining my report in search of what may have caused this sudden and unexpected drop in my score, I discovered that a collection account had been reported by IC System claiming that I owe XXXX XXXX XXXX {$1100.00}. First of all, I have NEVER EVER had an account with XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX EVER. Secondly, this collection was REINSERTED into my credit report after it had already been DELETED OVER A YEAR AGO because it was incorrect and false reporting. Now, over a year after it was deleted from my credit reports, it is suddenly making a reappearance and decreasing my scores. THIS IS NOT ALLOWED. You CAN NOT reinsert a collection account into somebody's credit report AFTER it had already been deleted by the credit bureaus due to it being INCORRECT as I DO NOT owe this debt. I will NOT tolerate this slanderous, defamatory, and FALSE information on my credit reports. I work EXTREMELY hard to maintain an excellent credit rating and my wife and I are in the process of preparing to build a new home, so I will NOT allow some bottom feeding, money hungry collection agency to SLANDER my good credit with FALSE information and interfere with MY life plans. Again, this collection account was DELETED from my credit reports by the credit bureaus over a year ago because it was being falsely reported as I have NEVER done business with XXXX XXXX XXXX or XXXX ( credit bureaus do not delete collection accounts without valid reason ) and now these people from IC System are reporting it AGAIN after it has been long since deleted from my credit reports, which is NOT allowed. If this slanderous, incorrect collection is not IMMEDIATELY removed from my credit reports, I will be proceeding with legal action and will be seeking monetary damages from IC System for REPEATED false credit reporting. This CFPB complaint is just the very first action that I am taking in order to allow IC System a brief widow of opportunity to rectify this very serious matter. Otherwise, I can promise that I WILL be taking much more drastic action against IC System if this slanderous collection remains on my credit reports. A screen shot of this collection from my XXXX credit report is attached to this complaint.

The Debt Collection Company IC Systems has recently reported to my XXXX XXXX Credit Report That there is an unpaid debt to XXXXXXXX XXXX. They are showing the account was opened on XX/XX/XXXX and last reported to the Credit as in collection as of XX/XX/XXXX. I have contacted them collection company and requested validation of this debt. I have also contacted XXXX XXXX who informed me that this account was Closed on XX/XX/XXXX, making this debt over 5 years old and 1 year past the statue of limitations in the State of Texas, however IC systems has " re-aged '' this debt in order to report it to the credit Bureau I have also asked XXXX XXXX for Notification of attempts to collect any debt from XXXX and they will not provide anything. Never has XXXX XXXX to my knowledge ever reported any collection on any of my Credit in the last 5 years until IC Systems took over the collection agency as of XX/XX/XXXX. I have disputed this debt as I have no recollection of owing any money to XXXX XXXX in which they say is " unpaid programing '' and " early termination '' fees that they will not provide any documentation on and to my knowledge never obtained or reported any collection activity on my credit until now. With IC systems reporting this 5 year old " Debt '' and " re-aging '' it to a 2 month old debt, this has drastically negatively impacted my credit score do to their Illegal reporting practice of " RE-Aging '' the debt. So when a lender looks at my credit for any type of loan purpose they will see a new collection that is 2 months old negatively impacting my ability to extend or receive new credit. I am not sure how a company can just out of no where start reporting a Debt that is over the statue of Limitations as well as reporting the incorrect dates of the said debt. I need your help in removing this off of my credit. I fear that If I make any attempts to make any payments on this 5 year old account, it will reopen the statue of limitations and reporting limits of the Debt. So with them reporting this debt as of XXXX it will now stay on my credit until the year XXXX instead of dropping off 7 years past the original date of the said debt. I have also disputed these charges with XXXX XXXX with no avail or communication efforts on their part until I received this on my credit, and I will also state that the Debt was reported to my credit Months prior to receiving any written notification from IC systems as I have just received a letter today XX/XX/XXXX XX/XX/XXXX

Last XX/XX/XXXX I went to XXXX to get a phone at the location Mall of Georgia XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX, GA XXXX ( XXXX ) XXXX. The store manager XXXX XXXX had the sales representative XXXX XXXX help me out selecting the best option. The agreement indicated I had up to 14 days to return the device without being penalize. On day 14 I went to the office to return the device ( XX/XX/XXXX ). On this day XX/XX/XXXX I spoke with the store manager XXXX XXXX. He indicated there was nothing rendered for me to do and that everything was taken care. However, when I asked for a proof or receipt for the returned device XXXX XXXX XXXX indicated I did not needed anything as he had already canceled all services and lease device in the system. Weeks went by and I begin to receive notices from XXXX indicating I owe the services and device I previously returned. I got in touch multiple times with the store I purchased/returned the device and was told to disregard that in their systems I was already canceled and so forth there was nothing else needed from me. Soon after that I received another notice so then I took action and went personally to another XXXX store located XXXX XXXX XXXX # XXXX, XXXX, GA XXXX Telephone number ( XXXX ) XXXX and asked to speak with the store manager XXXX XXXX. However, the request was denied and another sales representative asked me to go to the other store where I initially got the cellphone.

This company ( I.C. Systems, INC ) ) which I hold No Contract with nor have received services from is a 3rd party agency who has no right to collect anything from the alleged debtor since there is no way they can prove they were on any original contract. 73 Amjur, 2nd, Section 90. You have no right to subrogate ( substitute ) yourself into a contract. Whether it be by purchase, assignment, transfer, or trade. If you bought the debt you did it on your own behalf. Not at the request of any alleged debtor, and therefore are a stranger to the transaction ( voluntary payee ). Reporting of this debt is a violation of the FCRA and the FDCPA. Ive conducted some research on this company and in the state of Missouri this company is not Licensed, Bonded, and does not have a Certificate of Authority to collect in the state of Missouri. This is against the state and federal laws. According to the FDCPA : Under the Act, a debt collector communicating with persons other than the consumer for the purpose of acquiring location information about the consumer shall not : use any language or symbol on any envelope or in the contents of any communication effected by the mails or telegram that indicates that the debt collector is in the debt collection business or that the communication relates to the collection of a debt ; 28. The Missouri Division of Finance is statutorily charged with the licensing, supervision and regulation of state-chartered financial institutions and enterprises. Rescission of Contract. Refused for a cause without dishonur. I hereby rescind my signature and do not consent to this contract with your corporate office. Required Proof of Claim I would be happy to settle any financial obligation I might lawfully have to you, as soon as I have received proof by way of the following Documentation : against me, a Flesh and Blood Woman with my God Given name ( XXXX XXXX : House of XXXX XXXX. 1. Validation of the debt ( i.e. the actual accounting showing real losses, if any ) ; 2. Verification of your claim against me ( a Sworn affidavit or a hand signed invoice in accordance with The FDCPA, GAAP, and the FTC ) ; 3. A copy of the original contract signed by both parties and therefore binding both parties to the agreement. They are in Breach of Contract by violating the Arbitration Clause. Once a company charges off the account and sends it to a collection company they are in breach of their own contract. This is against the FCRA.

On XX/XX/2020 I received a alert from my credit monitoring service of account on my credit report inserted by I.C SYSTEMS in the amount of {$130.00}. I mailed a certified letter if dispute requesting them to remove the account and to validate the debt. I have never received a bill statement for this amount and to remove. I also contacted XXXX on XXXX XXXX and to the billing department asking to send a itemized statement andcto dispute the charges. I was advised by Rep.XXXX XXXX that this would be disputed and validated. XXXX XXXX asked to check back in 48 hours. Ibwas given tickey # ( XXXX ). I called back again to XXXX and spoke with XXXX and was advised that there was no billing on the account. She stated that she would advised the collection agency to remove from my account. She stated that the ticket provided by XXXX was never escalated. She assured me that her tickt ( XXXX ) would be escalated and the account would be removed from collections as there was no proof that I owed the balance. Told me to allow 7 business days. She said I would receive an email confirmation of the outcome. Never happened. I called back again on XX/XX/2020 and spoke with XXXX and advised of the run around about this so called bill that I owe. It just appeared out of thin air. She stated she would also create a ticket to have this account looked into and removed. I was advised that she would personally call me back as she starts work at XXXX EST. I've never received that call to date. I reached out to XXXX today and spoke to XXXX. He advised me that all the tickets provided to me yielded no results. He stated that the collection department is saying i owe the debt, but they have no records of account to show. I advised him that this is in Violation of the FCRA. I also went to the local office and was told that the account shows XX/XX/XXXX balance and that they have no record of what the statement shows. This is a travesty and illegal. How can you say I owe a bill from over 2 years ago and not prove to me or the collection agency that I owe the debt. This unfair. I paid my bill in full. I also requested that the collection agency verify the debt and they have yet to respond. The account they are reporting is attached to XXXX. They should be able to provide me with information about this balance and they have failed. This was a internet essentials account for low income families for XXXX per month. Why am owing that balance? This is shame on XXXX. I will never use them again.

My XXXX account opened in XXXX was wrongfully disconnected multiple times in XXXX after some incorrect billing after a transfer. XXXX failed to reconnect my service in a timely manner after the last reconnection. I fully paid fees that were attributed to services that I used ; however, for every wrongfully termination of service, XXXX continue to add fees and credit some fees back to my account. They added over {$300.00} in fees for 'early termination ' of a contract that I never requested to be terminated. I attempted on numerous occasions to reactive service and finally went to FCC. Upon filing an FCC complaint, the representative from XXXX, named XXXX XXXX, admitted that XXXX would never resolve the issue because they would have to admit to FCC that they were wrong. Before this conversation, nearly two years after the wrongful termination of services, XXXX never sought collection of funds. Shortly after the FCC complaints were filed, XXXX aggressively sought to collect money from me for " early termination of services '' using a company called XXXX XXXX despite their knowledge that I never sought to terminate services. After receiving a letter from XXXX XXXX in XXXX of XXXX, I sent a certified letter within 30 days disputing the charge and asking for an investigation. The company failed to provide with me an update. Another collections company, I C System Inc, improperly filed with credit bureau saying that I owe them {$370.00} without providing notices or results of investigation beforehand. This improper and careless act wrongfully lowered my score. In addition, these fees were not accrued by me. XXXX terminated services and refused to provide me their services. I have email proof of their initial removal of the fee and they once again added the same fees. XX/XX/XXXX - XX/XX/XXXX - wrong billing and multiple wrongfully termination of services that were paid for. XX/XX/XXXX - FCC complaint filed against XXXX XXXX FCC compliant filed again, pursuant failure of XXXX to address the primary complaint and provide me with a copy of their response to FCC regarding my complaint XX/XX/XXXX - Dispute letter was sent via certified mail to XXXX XXXX, who persistently harassed me via phone for 2 months before sending ( 1 ) letter in XX/XX/XXXX to inform me of their intention to pursue collections. XX/XX/XXXX - I C System Inc files collection on my credit report without ever sending me any communication nor opportunity to dispute that I've received.

HI IC System / XXXX ; I was shocked when I reviewed my credit report this week and I found multiple inaccuracies on my credit report from the 3 major credit bureaus from a collection company that I never have dealt with before. I've attempted several times to ratify the issue with the original creditors and credit bureaus and they still reporting inaccurate, unverifiable information. I have disputed this item with the credit reporting agency and they reported you confirmed the account as valid. I honestly do not believe to ever have any relationship with this collection agency or original creditor. Also there are several inaccuracies with this account the way it's reporting and that's a total violation of FCRA and FDCPA laws and regulations. In a good faith effort to resolve the matter amicably, I must demand proof of this debt, specifically the alleged contract or other instrument bearing my signature, as well as proof of your authority in this matter. Absent such proof, you must correct any erroneous reports of this past debt as mine. I am writing to request that you please provide the following information : 1. Please evidence your authorization under 15 USC 1692 ( e ) and 15 USC 1692 ( f ) in this alleged matter. 2. What is your authorization of law for your collection of information? 3. What is your authorization of law for your collection of this alleged debt? 4. Please evidence your authorization to do business or operate in this state. 5. Please evidence proof of the alleged debt, including the alleged contract or other instrument bearing my signature. 6. Please provide a complete account history, including any charges added for collection activity. You have 30 days upon receipt of this letter to provide strict proof of contract. In the event you can not provide strict proof of contract, you must cease and desist any and all collection efforts and immediately remove any derogatory information reported to the consumer reporting agencies. In addition, you will need to provide me your agreement, in writing, that you are closing your file, ceasing collecting activity, and deleting all information related to this reference number from any and all credit reports youve furnished the information to. In the event you transfer this account to an attorney without providing proof of contract, and proving your claim, he/she will be immediate reported to the America Bar Association and Professional Liability Fund for code of ethics violations.

On XX/XX/XXXX I ordered my credit report, and looked through it thoroughly. I was shocked to learn I had several collection accounts listed on my credit report. I decided to reach out to the collection agencies for clarification on the alleged debt they insisted I owed. Unsatisfied with the outcome from speaking with the collection agency, I decided to reach out to the original creditors. It was then I learned in great detail about the alleged debt, details I either could not get from the collection agencies or when I did receive information from them was totally inaccurate. It was then the discrepancies became apparent, these discrepancies I will list below. I C System is listed on my credit report as the collection agency for XXXX, XXXX merged with XXXX on XX/XX/XXXX. I called XXXX for clarification of the alleged debt I C Systems listed on my credit report in the amount of {$1200.00}. XXXX had no recollection of the debt with I C System. XXXX however has another collection agency XXXX XXXX XXXX ( I wrote a separate complaint for this collection agency ) collecting the alleged debt on behalf of XXXX ( which is now XXXX ) in a different amount of {$460.00}. How can two ( 2 ) different collection agency attempt to collect an alleged debt for the same creditor in two ( 2 ) different amounts? I have had the same phone number for at XXXX years, In addition to this according to XXXX, as evidence by the recorded conversation I attached to this complaint. I C System is Re-aging this fraudulent account. ( IC Systems should not be attempting to collect according to XXXX, as they are NOT the collection agency who is in possession of the debt ). XXXX Date of last activity is XX/XX/XXXX ( as evident by the recorded phone conversation with XXXX ) On my credit report I C Systems has the date of last activity as XX/XX/XXXX on XXXX and XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX. This is a grave injustice and totally illegal. According to Fair Credit Reporting Act { FCRA } If you are a debt collector furnishing information to a CRA about the accounts of a creditor, you must report the date of delinquency given to you by the CREDITOR FCRA 623 ( a ) ( 5 ) ( A ) This " date of delinquency '' determines how long the debt can be reported on a consumer 's credit report. Generally, a CRA may report a delinquent debt for seven years from the date of delinquency. If the debt was discharged in bankruptcy, however, a CRA may report it for 10 years. I have never had a bankruptcy.

My wife and I are currently in the process of purchasing a home. On XX/XX/XXXX I was notified by my loan officer that there was a {$200.00} debt in collections attached to my credit report. The debt collector is IC System. Being this is the first time I have heard of this debt I was confused. The debt was placed in collections by XXXX XXXX for allegedly failing to return cable boxes to the company after selling a property they provided service for. The home was sold in XX/XX/XXXX. Being this home is a vacation rental, the cable boxes were actually transferred to the new owners to avoid service interruption. My issue is that there was no communication sent to either myself or my wife notifying us that XXXX still believes there is a debt. Spectrum failed to communicate the issue and IC System also failed to communicate the issue. I spoke to an IC System representative on XX/XX/XXXX to discuss their process. The rep said phone calls were made to my cell phone number and also my wife 's cell phone number. She confirmed that the phone calls do in fact show up as " XXXX '' on the call ID and that they do not leave voicemails of any kind. How is a consumer supposed to be notified of an issue or even think the issue is legit if no call back message is left or even instructions on who to contact to settle the debt? The rep also said XXXX letter was mailed to our primary residence in XX/XX/XXXX stating the debt issue. It was confirmed by the rep that the letter was not certified and there is no means to actually verify that we received it, which we did not. The {$200.00} is irrelevant. With proper notification it would have been settled. My XXXX is that my credit score has dropped from XXXX to XXXX for a debt that I was unable to resolve because of poor communication. Since my credit score has dropped so much I am now being offered second tier mortgage interest rates instead of the best rates on the market. The home we are currently purchasing is nearly $ XXXX. Even a XXXX basis point change in my mortgage interest rate will cost me hundreds of thousands of dollars over the life of the loan. It is extremely frustrating. I was told by the IC rep that even if I paid off the debt my credit score still probably won't return to it's rightful level in the immediate future. The entire process conducted by both XXXX and IC Systems feels predatory and illegal from every angle. Any help is greatly appreciated on how to proceed. Thank you

To Whom It May Concern : This letter is sent to you in response to a listing on my credit report. Be advised that this is not a refusal to pay, but a notice sent pursuant to the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act, 15 USC 1692g Sec. 809 ( 8 ), stating your claim is disputed and validation is requested. This is NOT a request for verification or proof of my mailing address, but a request for VALIDATION made pursuant to the above named Title and Section. I respectfully request your offices provide me with competent evidence that I have any legal obligation to pay you. At this time I will also inform you that if your offices have reported invalidated information to any of the 3 major Credit Bureaus ( XXXX, XXXX or XXXX ) this action might constitute fraud under both Federal and State Laws. Due to this fact, if any negative mark is found on any of my credit reports by your company or the company that you represent, I will not hesitate in bringing legal action against you and your client for the following : Violation of the Fair Credit Reporting Act Violation of the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act Defamation of Character If your offices are able to provide the proper documentation as requested in the following Declaration, I will require at least 30 days to investigate this information, during which time all collection activity must cease and desist. Also during this validation period, if any action is taken which could be considered detrimental to any of my credit reports, I will consult with my legal counsel for suit. This includes any listing of any information to a credit reporting repository that could be inaccurate or invalidated. If your office fails to respond to this validation request within 30 days from the date of your receipt, all references to this account must be deleted and completely removed from my credit file and a copy of such deletion request shall be sent to me immediately. I would also like to request, in writing, that no further telephone contact be made by your office to my home or to my place of employment. If your offices continue to attempt telephone communication with me it will be considered harassment and I will have no choice but to file suit. All future communications with me MUST be done in writing and sent to the address noted in this letter. It would be advisable that you and your client assure that your records are in order before I am forced to take legal action. Best Regards

My wife and I had XXXX XXXX until we moved to a different house. Because of where we were moving to XXXX was not the best service for our new location so we canceled it. It took us a while to get settled into our new home and the equipment got put into a box that we didnt realize never got unpacked until quite a while later. When we came upon the equipment my wife called and spoke to someone and asked if we were being charged for it. They advised that an amount of {$770.00} was being charged for the 3 boxes that we had. She asked if we submitted them back if that amount would be taken off and we were assured that it would be. My wife got a XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX return Reciept from the person she spoke with and went to the XXXX store the next day, which was XX/XX/17. The XXXX XXXX XXXX representative said to make sure that we kept the reciept and proof that it was sent back. Just recently I got a credit alert that there was a new debt in collections for {$770.00} through IC Systems on behalf of XXXX XXXX XXXX. I immmediately called XXXX XXXX XXXX and told them what happened provided them with the information from my reciept and the woman I spoke with said no problem she would submit a case and it would get taken care of. That was over two weeks ago and this collection is still on my account. I called back, spoke with a XXXX and she advised the case I had submitted was rejected because it was over the allowed timeline to submit the equipment and I would still be charged with it. I told her that no one had ever mentioned to us since the day we returned the equipment that we would be over a time limit to return it- and we were absolutely not informed that even if they received the equipment back we would still be charged. I explained all of this to XXXX, who basically said that I was told wrong information and there wasnt anything she could do. I find this very frustrating and ridiculous. As soon as we found our equipment we tried to make it right with XXXX XXXX XXXX and were told it would all be taken care of. Why go through the trouble of waiting in line at a XXXX store and hanging onto this paperwork for over a year if we werent going to have those charges removed? I would like XXXX XXXX XXXX to honor their word and remove the charges- since they can confirm they DO have the equipment we sent back to them and we were never told about this mysteries deadline until today when I was told my request was rejected.

In XX/XX/2017 I noticed that IC Systems/XXXX was shown on my credit report as a collections account. I contacted them to confirm the address for the service because I had evidence of paying my XXXX account prior to relocating out of the state of PA. The address they provided was an address that I have never lived and during the time the service was provided, I showed evidence that I was living in VA. I submitted all of this information to all 3 credit bureaus ( XXXX, XXXX and XXXX ) so that the erroneous information would be removed. My credit report also showed the address where XXXX service was provided and I submitted evidence to all 3 credit bureaus advising that I never lived at the address they had on file. Each credit bureau removed the collection account as well as that address listed based on the written documentation provided. At the end of XX/XX/2017, I received a call from XXXX attempting to collect on that same debt that I had the credit bureaus remove and I advised them again that this was not my debt since I had never resided at the address where XXXX provided service. I was told that in order for me to stop the collection calls, I needed to fill out a form for fraud on their website. I completed this as required but received a letter advising they would not process my online form unless I could provide a police report for identity theft.. When I contacted XXXX XXXX ( VA ) Police Department they basically advised that since I was not sure who stole my identity, I should have been able to dispute this with documentation evidencing my previous address during the time the services were provided by XXXX. On XX/XX/2017, I submitted a letter to XXXX ( attached in this complaint ) advising them of this and provided all supporting documentation to evidence that I never lived at the residence and I never heard back. Today I received an alert from XXXX XXXX that a collection account has been added to my credit report from IC Systems and the original creditor is XXXX. This has caused my credit score to go down XXXX points. It has been 2 years since I sent the letter to XXXX and they have never responded but have sold this debt to IC Systems again and is now showing as a collection on my credit report. I have never received any information or telephone calls since submitting my letter to them 2 years ago. I have submitted a letter to the 3 credit bureaus again to have this removed from my credit file

In XXXX of XXXX, I purchased an XXXX XXXX as part of my XXXX XXXX. One year later, XXXX of XXXX, I paid the phone off early and moved my service to XXXX. Unbeknownst to me, XXXX continued billing me $ XXXX for data charges for the remainder of XXXX with the final balance being {$230.00}. These bills were being sent to an old XXXX address that I was no longer using so I was unaware of the charges. In XXXX of XXXX, XXXX moved the account into collections at IC System. After being contacted by IC System, on XX/XX/XXXX, I paid IC System {$230.00}. I paid the amount IC System said was due to XXXX and was informed that the account was paid in full. At that time, the account was not showing up on my credit report. I received documentation from IC Systems stating the XXXX account balance was XXXX. In XXXX of XXXX, I saw that I had a collection from XXXX for {$2.00} on my credit report. I contacted XXXX, was told there was still an outstanding balance, even after IC System said the balance was paid in full, and I paid them {$2.00} at that time. The {$2.00} plus the previously paid {$230.00} equals {$230.00} which was the amount of my final bill from XXXX that I just recently found in my old XXXX email account. I dont know where the disconnect was between IC System and XXXX on the amount due but it has caused nothing but issues for me. IC System collected the wrong amount and XXXX put the remainder ( {$2.00} ) on my credit report. It was in XXXX of XXXX that XXXX first re-aged my account on my credit report. At that time, it had been appearing as a charge off dated XXXX of XXXX. After I paid the {$2.00}, they changed it to XX/XX/XXXX. Although I paid the full {$230.00}, the account is still showing on my credit report as legally paid for less than the full balance. Im working on getting a business line of credit and need to have this XXXX collection removed off of my credit report. I contacted XXXX and asked for a goodwill deletion. I had been a customer for many years, never in collections, and paid the amount that was due after the account was closed immediately upon learning about it. XXXX replied back declining the goodwill deletion and stated that the payment I made was made in response to a negotiated settlement offer. Not true. Just this past week, I am seeing that XXXX has once again re-aged the charge off. This time it is appearing as XX/XX/XXXX making it look like a fresh charge off.

I was shocked when I reviewed my credit report this week and I found multiple inaccuracies on my credit report from the 3 major credit bureaus from a collection company that I never have dealt with before. I've attempted several times to ratify the issue with the original creditors and credit bureaus and they still reporting inaccurate, unverifiable information. I have disputed this item with the credit reporting agency and they reported you confirmed the account as valid. I honestly do not believe to ever have any relationship with this collection agency or original creditor. Also there are several inaccuracies with this account the way it's reporting and that's a total violation of FCRA and FDCPA laws and regulations. In a good faith effort to resolve the matter amicably, I must demand proof of this debt, specifically the alleged contract or other instrument bearing my signature, as well as proof of your authority in this matter. Absent such proof, you must correct any erroneous reports of this past debt as mine. I am writing to request that you please provide the following information : 1. Please evidence your authorization under 15 USC 1692 ( e ) and 15 USC 1692 ( f ) in this alleged matter. 2. What is your authorization of law for your collection of information? 3. What is your authorization of law for your collection of this alleged debt? 4. Please evidence your authorization to do business or operate in this state. 5. Please evidence proof of the alleged debt, including the alleged contract or other instrument bearing my signature. 6. Please provide a complete account history, including any charges added for collection activity. You have 30 days upon receipt of this letter to provide strict proof of contract. In the event you can not provide strict proof of contract, you must cease and desist any and all collection efforts and immediately remove any derogatory information reported to the consumer reporting agencies. In addition, you will need to provide me your agreement, in writing, that you are closing your file, ceasing collecting activity, and deleting all information related to this reference number from any and all credit reports youve furnished the information to.

Since I was out of work and was looking for ways to save money, I was interested in what she had to say. My only problem was that I was still under a contract with XXXX XXXX and I told her that and she assured me that I would be receiving a Visa gift card in the mail as a bonus for signing up with XXXX XXXX that I could use to pay any cancellation fee with XXXX XXXX. Since their rates were a little less, my husband and I decided to go for it and signed a contract. I had to call a number to confirm that we had agreed to the changing of our service over to XXXX XXXX, and while making this phone call I found out that I had been misled on the XXXX gift card, and would n't actually be receiving it until we had fully met the terms of our contract after a year, which meant I would have to come up with the cancellation fee for XXXX XXXX, and being out of work, we could not afford that. The contract we signed said we had up to 3 days to cancel the contract, which I did within XXXX hours of signing the contract. I immediately called them and spoke with XXXX to cancel our service, who gave me a reference number ( # XXXX ) confirming my cancellation request, and then I also e-mailed in the required notice of cancellation that same day. When on XXXX XXXX I received a notice confirming that I had requested to change my service from XXXX to XXXX XXXX, I called XXXX XXXX and spoke with a XXXX to confirm with her that my service was still active, and she confirmed that it was. After receiving my first bill, I contacted XXXX and informed the billing department that I had cancelled my service within XXXX hours of signing the contract and that my service with XXXX XXXX was never interrupted, and that they, XXXX NEVER did supply my electricity, so why they are charging me for service they never even supplied. This in my opinion is fraudulent business practice on the part XXXX XXXX. I also made several other calls and spoke with individuals in XXXX XXXX 's billing department when I received bills in the mail, and never could get anyone to listen to me or get supervisors to return my calls regarding what I was trying to tell them were bills in error. Please feel free to contact me for any further information you XXXX need regarding this complaint.

This complaint is to dispute communication with XXXX XXXX and IC Systems. I had an emergency room visit XXXX of XXXX where I spoke with a doctor and provided a XXXX sample and was charged {$520.00} after insurance. I request a lower rate after a few months of service upon receiving a bill. I was told that they would call me back after a review was conducted. A few months later I was reached out again in XXXX of XXXX after no phone call was made and explained the situation over again and was told to wait for a call, to which I provided the number they should call. Then in XXXX of XXXX I answered a call from IC Systems explaining they were a debt collector for XXXX XXXX and that they were to collect a debt. The very same debt that I had inquired about and was waiting to hear back, even though I never received a call from XXXX responding to my original request. At which point I explained again what was going on. They said I could send in a physical letter asking to dispute the charges from XXXX XXXX. I asked if I could file this dispute electronically and was told that was not a possibility. I explained to them to stop calling me and then I would send the letter and to email me the physical address to send the dispute. I called a second time a month or two later after not receiving the email after verifying that I don't not receive the email, nor in a spam/junk folder, and was told they would send the email again. I also re-verifying my email. Now XXXX of XXXX I get a hit on my credit report with a collection action. I then called IC Systems back to which I had to explain the issue once again and requested they reverse the item on my credit report. They said they can not reverse the item on my credit score and said they can confirmation that the email was sent. To which I checked my email again on the date they provided it was send of XX/XX/XXXX, and it was not there. I was then given the actual address to send the dispute to. When I asked XXXX XXXX, a supervisor, at IC Systems to wait on hold for a few minutes after a short while she proceeded to hang up without notice. I now have the physical address to send the dispute per their policies. I plan to send this dispute tomorrow ( XX/XX/XXXX ) the day after speaking with IC Systems. I would like this reverse immediately due to the lack of communication on XXXX XXXX 's part and IC Systems for not returning calls as promised or delivering emails.

4 years ago, XX/XX/XXXX, I terminated my XXXX account. They had told me as long as I return the phone, it will terminate my contract with no fees. I went into the XXXX store and returned my phone. I asked the representative if I owed anything at all, several times, to which they said no and provided me a receipt saying that I owed {$0.00} to XXXX. I thought I was all clear. 1 year later, XX/XX/XXXX, I applied for a loan on a car and XXXX showed up on my credit report saying I owed {$680.00}. At the time, I luckily still had the receipt. I went into the store and provided the receipt. The representative said that they would take care of it, I did not owe anything to XXXX and they would send a letter to IC Systems saying that I did not owe anything. Again, I thought I was clear. 3 years later, XX/XX/XXXX, I am applying to buy a house and again XXXX shows up on my credit report with the same charge of {$680.00}. I immediately call XXXX, I speak with a supervisor named XXXX. XXXX says that I do not owe anything to XXXX and it is just though the debt collector IC Systems. He said that he sent a note to IC Systems that I am clear of all balances to XXXX and do not owe anything and I could call IC Systems right away. I got part of this conversation with XXXX recorded because when I asked for a receipt of this, he refused. Upon calling IC Systems, I find nothing was sent to them clearing my balance and I ask for a receipt and they also refuse on their end. I try to call XXXX back and can not get a hold of XXXX and get hung up on not once but several times. Finally I manage to get a hold of a supervisor, who was absolutely rude and says that the balance above is from terminating my contract early ( first time hearing this 4 years later ). I looked it up online and it says that for XXXX in some cases there is a early termination fee, of $ XXXXmonth with a max of {$350.00} and {$100.00} for the phone making the {$680.00} not possible. Upon asking, they have never been able to fully explain the charges just the overall number. However, I was told for the past 4 years that I did not owe anything and had {$0.00} balance anytime I spoke with a representative. Nobody has even tried to contact me for the balance in the last 4 years, I only found out through my credit reports. Please resolve this as XXXX and IC Systems has ruined my credit for a reason I am not responsible for and for the past 4 years.

I purchased flooring from XXXX on XX/XX/XXXX. I signed a contract that stated my original total was {$6400.00} but I only had to pay {$5600.00} due to a discount approved by market. I made two deposits on XX/XX/XXXX ( {$580.00} and {$2200.00} ) totaling {$2800.00}. In the special instructions section on page 2 of 14 it stated that I owed {$2800.00} C.O.D. I had two different installation dates. On XX/XX/XXXX I paid {$1700.00}. On XX/XX/XXXX the customer service representative took my payment over the telephone for {$1300.00}. The next day I got a call stating that they had overcharged me and they were going to fix it and my payment of {$1300.00} would not be processed. Then the day after that I got a call stating that I owe {$1200.00} more. After several calls with an unknown representative I asked for a supervisor. XXXX XXXX called me. XXXX XXXX General Office Associate XXXX. Ms. XXXX stated that I owed {$1200.00} more over the telephone and in an email. I explained to her about the call I received as well as everything else and asked her to send me an itemized bill. Ms. XXXX then sent me an email saying I owed {$1300.00} more, she sent me a bill stating that my total order was {$4000.00} my deposit was {$2200.00} with an allowance ( discount ) of {$470.00} and I owed {$1300.00}. However, the original sales receipt stated my original total was {$6400.00} but I was being charged {$5600.00} which is a {$770.00} discount not {$470.00}. Ms. XXXX also sent an attachment showing my total was {$4000.00} with a deposit of {$2200.00}, discount of {$470.00} and balance of {$1300.00}. I informed Ms. XXXX according to the original call I received and the email that she sent me with an attachment mirroring what was she typed, I had over paid by {$390.00}. I also told her that one of my deposits made on XX/XX/XXXX for {$580.00} was not reflecting her itemized bill. Ms. XXXX never addressed that. After several calls and letters mailed to me Ms. XXXX and I couldnt come to an agreement. XXXX XXXX wanted me to send her my credit card statement but with everything that transpired I did not feel comfortable sharing my personal information with anyone at XXXX. On or around XX/XX/XXXX, I received a collection notice for {$1300.00}. This have been a living nightmare and nobody seems to care and now my credit is being jeopardized. Im not sure what my salesman or any other of the workers did with my order.

This complaint submission is in regards to a false credit report by ( XXXX. XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX ). I have made attempts to rectify this matter with them directly as they have now been unresponsive. I spoke with a representative who was both uncooperative and uninformative. The representative whose name is XXXX XXXX was extremely aggressive and stated they will not cooperate in a XXXX XXXX. The representative continued to deny my request on information regarding the account. I then made another attempt and I was finally provided with the Fax number and mailing address so I could forward them a Debt Of Validation letter. This Debt Of Validation letter which was sent twice on XX/XX/XXXX of XXXX, was confirmed through FAX and CERTIFIED MAIL that the Supervisor had received the files by signature confirmation. At this point it is now XX/XX/2023, and after 30 days of notifying them, neither my Attorney nor I have received any response, or correspondents. I specifically asked for proof of the alleged debt and anything in signature or JUDGEMENT BY LAW stating I was obligated to pay them or falsely report a debt to the three major Credit Bureaus. They failed to return the requested information on the Debt of Validation Letter. I have never made any agreement with them nor the original creditor to pay anything, nor was I properly notified of this false reported debt. I am requesting ( XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX ) to immediately remove me from their systems and update all 3 major Credit Bureaus specifically ( XXXX, XXXX, & XXXX ) on this action. They have failed to follow the guidelines which were all provided to them in the Debt Of Validation letter that supports the Fair Debt Collections Practice Act. In result, ( XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX ) are violating my rights and are also causing financial hardship with this debt being reported. This false report by XXXX. XXXX XXXX has prevented me from gaining access to any lenders due to Derogatory Marks on file. At this point they have failed to provide any competent evidence or any legal obligation and XXXX. XXXX XXXX is currently in violation of the Fair Debt Collections Practice Act, 15 USC 1692g. If this report is not updated immediately to the 3 major Credit Bureaus, I will be taking legal actions and will immediately file a Civil Suit.

Someone with the same name as me, the same date of birth, who failed to pay the balance of their account and failed to return the equipment to XXXX ( XXXX XXXX ). This is the second time XXXX has misreported a collections account as me. A few years ago I saw an account show up on my credit report as in collections. I disputed the account with XXXX, and within a few weeks it was removed. This time when I disputed this new account in collections, XXXX said that they confirmed it was my account, so I contacted the collections company I.C. SYSTEM INC. on XX/XX/XXXX to gather all the information I could on the account and see how this could be resolved. I spoke with a XXXX ID # XXXX who confirmed that the only information that matched mine was my name XXXX XXXX, and my date of birth, XX/XX/XXXX. The service address, phone number, email, is different. XXXX told me to contact XXXX and submit a fraud case. I contacted XXXX, opened a fraud case ( XXXX fraud case # XXXX ). The agent I spoke with confirmed that the social security number on the service account the collections account is regarding does not match my social security number, so I disputed the collections account with XXXX again, uploaded scanned copies of my driver 's license, social security card, and passport. XXXX closed the dispute on XX/XX/XXXX with the findings that I.C. SYSTEM INC. confirmed the collections account is me. So when I saw this today ( XX/XX/XXXX ) I called I.C. SYSTEM INCXXXX at XXXX XXXX EST to ask how they are confirming the account belongs to me. The person I spoke with said that when XXXX investigates the dispute, they just confirmed the information that they have, which in this case, is just the name XXXX XXXX and the date of birth XX/XX/XXXX. I.C. SYSTEM INC. said they do not have this person 's middle name and they do not have this person 's social security number. XXXX is asking me to file a police report claiming identity fraud, but I do not believe this other XXXX XXXX used my identity to open an account, I think XXXX ( XXXX XXXX ) is improperly reporting the information to their hired collections company I.C. SYSTEM INC. I have an active service account with XXXX and I believe they're misreporting that information. It is extremely frustrating that this is the second time XXXX has done this, docking my credit score, taking up a lot of my personal time, and causing me undue stress.

My late father, who died in XXXX, had 2 telephone line accounts with XXXX XXXX XXXX since the XXXX : a primary residence line and a secondary fax line for his at-home law business. I moved in with him to care for him as he became ill shortly before he died ; after he died I continued making the monthly payments for both lines, but I did n't need the secondary fax line anymore since I do n't use fax machines. Moreover, the fax line was disconnected by an XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX technician who was trying to fix the primary phone line XXXX excessive static, dropped calls XXXX. I told the technician to just close the fax line account since it has n't been used for a couple of years since my father died. Then I called XXXX XXXX XXXX and told them to cancel the fax account & upgrade the DSL service on the primary line. But instead of closing the account, they just kept billing me for another 2 months. They refused to close the account & instead kept billing me ; for 2 years I paid every monthly bill even though I never used the fax line, and after the tech disconnected it, I closed it then stopped paying the bills. That is where the current debt originated, but it was only my father 's account all along since he alone signed the contract & he alone used the account. XXXX XXXX XXXX then reported it to the credit bureaus under my father 's name over 5 years ago. So not only is the debt not mine, but there should n't be ANY debt at all since I closed that account many years ago. Then, about 2 months ago I get a letter from a collection agency threatening to report me to credit bureaus if I do n't pay this debt. I call them, IC Systems, Inc., explain the above and they hang up on me after a heated argument. Then two weeks ago I get another letter offering to settle the supposed XXXX XXXX XXXX debt of {$280.00} for {$84.00}. And a week ago I get a credit alert that a new collection account has damaged my credit profile. So a debt that is n't even mine & is n't even legitimate is now ruining my otherwise perfect credit history. So I go to IC System 's website & pay the {$84.00} in order to end this nightmare & remove the fraudulent collection account from my credit report. But after I make the payment, a get a message from IC System that I still owe {$190.00} on my account!!!! Furthermore, the fraudulent account is still on my XXXX credit report doing severe damage to my credit score!!

IC Systems inserted a derogatory entry on my credit report without providing a dunning letter or any correspondence on the alleged debt that would have informed me that they were attempting to collect on the alleged debt. To that end, when I retrieved a copy of my credit report I noticed this inaccuracy and immediately sent a letter to the credit bureaus followed by IC Systems. The response I received from the bureaus stated IC Systems had verified the entry, yet they did not respond to my letter. My certified letter was not returned ; therefore, the company was in receipt and blatantly refused to respond, yet still report. I specifically requested that they provide : An agreement that states your authority to collect on this alleged debt ; Agreement with signature of the alleged debtor wherein he/she agreed to pay the creditor Alleged account number Date this alleged debt became payable Original delinquency date Verification that this debt was assigned or sold to collector Complete accounting of alleged debt Name and address of the bonding agent for collection agency in case legal action becomes necessary. I sought validation and not verification. This is a very misleading practice and a violation of my consumer rights. They did not provide any documents that bore my signature nor did they provide the original delinquency date nor a complete accounting of the alleged debt. The first violation is that IC Systems inserted this unverifiable, inaccurate entry on my report without providing me the any time to dispute the validity of their alleged debt and second, they did not cease reporting of this entry with the credit bureaus after they were in receipt of my dispute. These are direct and blatant FDCPA violations. IC Systems must immediately delete this erroneous entry from all of my credit reports. If they indeed are alleging that I owe them for XXXX XXXX, why then did they not provide the original terms of agreement as well as any other updated conditions and terms of agreement? Why did they not provide a copy of the ledger to reflect any payments to them? Why did they not provide copies of correspondence they have sent? Why did they not provide any documentation to substantiate the alleged amount? This entry lacks veracity. Delete this entry immediately and provide me a copy of the correspondence sent to the bureaus to direct them to remove this erroneous entry.

Good afternoon, I am writing to file a complant against, XXXX XXXX, I.C. Systems located in XXXX XXXX, MN. On Friday, XX/XX/XXXX at XXXX XXXX my husband, XXXX XXXX received a call from I.C. Systems. The call as received from phone number XXXX. The caller represented to my husband they were looking to speak with me, XXXX XXXX. I immediately searched the website for a number with I.C. Systems to avoids any scams etc. I made contact with an employee who transferred me to a collection rep. Per our discussion, I was made aware they received a bill from XXXX, and that I owed money, when I questioned and suggested I would speak with my attorney, I was told they could no longer engage in conversation with me and to have my attorney call them. I reached out to XXXX, XXXX and XXXX later that day to discuss the alleged debt. It was agreed the attorney would send a letter on my behalf, ( see attached ). I would also like to add I have received no bills from XXXX and the only contact from I.C. Systems was the call I initiated XX/XX/XXXX. As it relates to XXXX, I switched carriers sometime in XX/XX/XXXX to a competitor, part of the new service they agreed to pay my phone devices in full. I used monies received from the new service provided and paid XXXX XXXX on XX/XX/XXXX. After my payment was submitted I was told verbally no other money was due for this account. Again to reiterate I had no calls from XXXX or notice for any other monies due for this account. I.C. Systems sent me an email which was the only form of communication shortly after my initial contact in XX/XX/XXXX. The attachment received was for me to complete my attorney information, print, sign and mail to I.C. Systems. I also tried responding to that email which popped back and not delivered. I confirmed with XXXX XXXX, Attorney that drafted the letter to the collection agency, date of letter XX/XX/XXXX, no response has been received to his letter. This was confirmed verbally over the phone today, XX/XX/XXXX. I have simply requested to prove this debt belongs to me and provide me the required information as again I was told the XXXX account was paid in full. I confirmed on XX/XX/XXXX that I.C. Systems has now placed a collection on my credit report for an amount of XXXX which is different from the billing notice received which shows an amount of XXXX. I am requesting further action against this collection agency.

Closed our account with XXXX XX/XX/XXXX. They continued to automatically charge my credit card on file for an additional months bill in XX/XX/XXXX. I called/online chat with them numerous times and was told the money would be credited back when a final bill was issued. I have yet to receive this final bill. I filed a dispute with my CC to protect myself. XXXX tried to claim I owe them this money, after their agents have told me thru repeated conversations ( see attached ) that they would clear up issue and that I did not in fact owe any money ( since it was monies they had over charged me ). Despite continued correspondence with XXXX several times a month since XX/XX/XXXX, they continue to refer me to their 3rd party collection companies. First with XXXX XXXX XXXX, which, after numerous emails to them including copies of XXXX chats, I finally filed a claim with CFPB ( XXXX ) that helped get resolution with XXXX and I thought with XXXX. XX/XX/XXXX, I received a new letter from a different collection company, IC System. I contacted this company by phone and was told that I could not submit proof that XXXX had cleared the matter by email, that I would have to send by mail. I noted I would submit a claim on CFPB. About 1 week later, I gave birth to my XXXX child. I had not heard back from the Creditor, so I hoped it had been cleared by XXXX and there had just been time lag, since I have received nothing but the first letter from IC System. I just checked my credit score ( XXXX XXXX, XXXX ) thru my credit card and have a debt collector issue. IC System and XXXX are the only possibility. I have not been negligent, I have contacted XXXX, XXXX, and IC System at every step of the way as possible. I continue to be told by XXXX that the issue has been resolved and no debt is due by XXXX, only to find out later by written mail that they have escalated the claim to different Debt Collectors. At this point I feel XXXX is harassing me and has cost me hours of my time and much distress in trying to clear up the issue. I do n't know what to do to get them to keep their promises and clear up the Account. I can not continue to waste time corresponding with them, when they tell me one thing and do the opposite. Can you help me to get ATT to keep their word and stop harassing me for debt ( {$120.00} at this point ) that they already promised me was resolved? Thank you

This company ( I.C. Systems ) which I hold No Contract with nor have received services from is a 3rd party agency who has no right to collect anything from the alleged debtor since there is no way they can prove they were on any original contract. 73 Amjur, 2nd, Section 90. You have no right to subrogate ( substitute ) yourself into a contract. Whether it be by purchase, assignment, transfer, or trade. If you bought the debt you did it on your own behalf. Not at the request of any alleged debtor, and therefore are a stranger to the transaction ( voluntary payee ). Reporting of this debt is a violation of the FCRA and the FDCPA. Ive conducted some research on this company and in the state of Missouri this company is not Licensed, Bonded, and does not have a Certificate of Authority to collect in the state of Missouri. This is against the state and federal laws. According to the FDCPA : Under the Act, a debt collector communicating with persons other than the consumer for the purpose of acquiring location information about the consumer shall not : use any language or symbol on any envelope or in the contents of any communication effected by the mails or telegram that indicates that the debt collector is in the debt collection business or that the communication relates to the collection of a debt ; 28. The Missouri Department of Financial Institutions is statutorily charged with the licensing, supervision and regulation of state-chartered financial institutions and enterprises. They are in Breach of Contract by violating the Arbitration Clause. Once a company charges off the account and sends it to a collection company they are in breach of their own contract. This is against the FCRA. Rescission of Contract '' Refused for a cause without dishonur. I hereby rescind my signature and do not consent to this contract with your corporate office. Required Proof of Claim I would be happy to settle any financial obligation I might lawfully have to you, as soon as I have received proof by way of the following Documentation : against me, a Flesh and Blood Woman with my God Given name ( XXXX XXXX : house of XXXX ). 1.

I am purchasing a home & 30 days prior to closing, my credit is run again and an account with IC Systems appears as a new collection account opened in XXXX XXXX for {$530.00}. I called IC Systems many time s trying to identify where they were getting their information. I knew I had n't opened anything ... I was trying to close on a home & this was preventing it. They gave me the line ... '' this is an attempt to collect a debt ' & only wanted to know how I was going to take care of it. I explained this had to be a mistake because I had n't opened anything. They said what they reported they received from the creditor. On another call to IC Systems, I ag ain try to explain the information they are reporting is not accurate. I again, am given the " this is an attempt to collect a debt ' line & how would I like to pay '' line and If I do not like what is being reported, I can go through the bureaus and dispute it. On my 3rd to IC Systems, they again give the " this is an attempt to collect a debt ' line & how would I like to pay '' line and I am trying to plead my case to them that the information is not accurate & they are costing me my home. They say if I just go ahead a pay it, they can update with the bureaus over the weekend and it would show paid on my credit reports the following week, as paid. I find this more than frustrating. After more investigating, I discovered XXXX collection accounts on my credit report from XXXX - XXXX f rom the same creditor equaling the {$530.00} that had been removed in XXXX . I called IC Systems for th e 4th tim e and again get " this is an attempt to collect a debt ' line & h ow would I like to pay '' I am furious because now I know this information is being reported inaccurate for sure. I asked how they could report that information to the bureaus knowing it was false. They again tell me to pay or dispute. I also went online to their website on XXXX & filed a complaint there. It said someone would contact me ... still waiting. I then called XXXX XXXX in hopes they would clear this up. The representative confirmed it was from XXXX but maybe it was sold or something to another collector. I asked that they change how they reported that & she said they could n't because it was sold ... wow! No help ... Truly & helplessly unreal!

XX/XX/2019 I sent a certified letter to IC Systems for reporting a debt to the credit reporting agencies without validating debt for {$11000.00}. I received a returned receipt from IC systems stamped stating they received the certified letter requesting validation of debt on XX/XX/2019. On XX/XX/2019 and XX/XX/2019, I received an alert that IC systems has updated my credit report stating the debt was verified. How was it verified and validated with the credit reporting agencies and not the alleged consumer ( myself ). After receiving the dispute, IC Systems must send me proof by XX/XX/2019 ( which is 30 days ) that this company owns or has been assigned the debt by the Original Creditor. Agreement with your client that grants you the authority to collect on this alleged debt. Agreement that bears the signature of the alleged debtor wherein he/she agreed to pay the creditor. Any insurance claims been made by any creditor regarding this account. Any Judgments obtained by any creditor regarding this account. Name and address of alleged creditor. Name on file of alleged debtor. Alleged account number. Address on file for alleged debtor. Amount of alleged debt. Date this alleged debt became payable. Date of original charge off or delinquency. Verification that this debt was assigned or sold to collector. Complete accounting of alleged debt. Commission for debt collector if collection efforts are successful. If the debt collector does not send sufficient proof of the debt, it is not allowed to continue collecting the debt from me or report fraudulently ( that is a violation under FCDPA ). That includes listing the debt on your credit report. I have submitted a dispute with the CRA that hasn't been adequately validated with the credit bureaus. This is NOT a request for verification or proof of my mailing address, but a request for VALIDATION made pursuant to 15 USC 1692g Sec. 809 ( b ) of the FDCPA. I respectfully requested that the company provides me with competent evidence that I have any legal obligation to pay them. Due to this fact, if any negative mark is continues to report on any of my credit reports by your company or the company the represent, I will not hesitate in bringing legal action against you and your client for the following : Violation of the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act and Defamation of Character.

XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX. XXXX, PA, XXXX The debt collector, I.C Systems has reported a collection to my consumer report without any initial communication with me, the consumer. Debt collectors can not report any alleged debt to consumer reporting agencies without first communicating with the consumer [ Federal Trade Commission v. Midwast Recover Systems ]. This is a violation of the FDCPA, 15 USC 1692g. Therefore, I was not notified of the amount of the alleged debt, the name of the alleged creditor who is also defined as a debt collector by law, nor any statements. Pursuant to 15 USC 1692c, without the prior consent of the consumer given directly to the debt collector, a debt collector may not communicate with anyone, in connection with the collection of any debt, other than the consumer, and their attorney. I did not give any consent to whoever I.C Systems has purchased this alleged debt from, neither did I give consent to I.C Systems or any consumer reporting agency to report this alleged debt to my consumer report. This is not only an invasion of my individual privacy, but also detrimental and harmful to me as a consumer as said so by congress under the FDCPA and the Gramm Leach-Bliley Act. Pursuant to 15 USC 1692g the failure of a consumer to dispute the validity of a debt may not be construed by any court as an admission of liability. Although, the debt collector, I.C Systems violated my rights and did not give me a chance to dispute the validity of this alleged debt, does not mean that they have any legal authorization to validate any debt they can only assume so. An assumption is not validation. I.C System has violated my rights as a consumer under the FDCPA, FCRA, and the Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act so the specified remedies for these violations are : 1. XXXX out the balance of this alleged account. 2. Deletion of the alleged account and all references of the alleged account from its records. 3. Remove of this account from my credit file. As written by congress the failure to comply with the specified remedies of this alleged account makes you liable under section 1692k of title 15 and 1681n of title 15. As a consumer, I do not give you consent to contact me again unless it is notifying me of the deletion of any and all references of this alleged account and the removal of this account from my credit file. Best Regards.

I do not owe any Debt nor Have I ever had an Account with " I C SYSTEMS COLLECTIONS '' I have Resolved this matter With the Original Creditor. To Whom It May Concern, I am hereby requesting that you confirm the fact that I owe this debt as required by any applicable state and federal laws. Please contact the creditor to obtain verification. In addition, under the provisions of state and federal Fair Debt Collection Practices Act ( FDCPA ), Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), and related consumer statutes, I am hereby instructing you to cease collection of the debt while efforts are made to obtain verification. Until you resolve this error with the creditor, you should neither contact me nor anyone else except the creditor about this collection. Furthermore, any reporting of this matter to credit reporting agencies is premature. Until you have investigated my dispute, you should not relay negative information to a credit reporting agency. If negative information has already been reported, you must notify the agency to remove said report until the investigative process is over so that my credit report remains accurate, or at the very least, my credit report should be updated to reflect my dispute. Your next contact with me should be to either notice that the creditor has failed to provide verification of the debt and that the matter has been closed or that you believe that this debt is valid and are providing proof of my responsibility. If the former, please confirm that I am not being held responsible for the debt in writing and also that if the account has already been noted on my credit report, that you will contact the bureau ( s ) in question to have the account removed. If the latter, I expect that you will provide me with an explanation as to why you have decided not to remove this account from collections and a copy of all documents relevant to the debt such as the application, bills, records of communications and payments, and any other data that indicates my responsibility. I am instructing you not to contact any third parties such as my employer, neighbors, friends or family members. In addition, you may not contact me by phone at work or at my home about this collection activity. All future correspondence should be sent to me in writing. Please acknowledge that you have received this notice within 14 days. Sincerely,

I would like to file a complaint against I C System Inc for not complying with the FDCPA, which requires that they notify me of a debt via mail. I did not receive notification of debt by mail or telephone. I was notified by XXXX credit agency that I have a collection account that drastically dropped my credit score. On XX/XX/XXXX, at XXXX, I received an alert from XXXX that a change occurred on my credit report. I logged onto the XXXX site and noticed my credit score dropped 30 points due to a collection file submitted by I C System Inc, XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX XXXX, MN XXXX. The amount is {$360.00}, and the original creditor is XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX. I called I C System Inc at XXXX XXXX and spoke with debt collector XXXX XXXX. Our call lasted 9 minutes. Mr. XXXX asked me to verify my address at the beginning of the call. I gave him my current address, which I have lived at since XX/XX/XXXX. Mr. XXXX asked me to verify my previous address, I gave him the previous address I resided at for 3 years prior to moving to my current address. Mr. XXXX asked if I ever had a PO BOX , and I replied, " No ''. I repeated my previous address again. Mr. XXXX asked me again if I ever had a PO BOX address. I told Mr. XXXX I have never had a PO BOX in the state of Georgia. ( I have lived in the state of Georgia for 5 years ). Mr. XXXX asked me to repeat my current address and asked if the number I was calling from was a good number to contact me. I told Mr. XXXX bill was invalid and should have been covered by my previous health insurance company. Mr. XXXX told me debt was for date of service XX/XX/XXXX, and my statute of limitation has run out to get my insurance company to cover it. Mr. XXXX said he has been in this business for a long time and was certain I was too late to submit to my previous insurance company. Mr. XXXX asked me to allow 30 days for him to receive an initial bill from the creditor that I could submit to my insurance company. He also suggested I contact creditor directly. I disputed item with XXXX, and I C System reported the item as being correct. I was not given the opportunity to address this debt and get it resolved once it was sent to their office. Mr. XXXX confirmed on their recorded line that they had a PO BOX address for me. I am certain that the USPS would have returned invalid mail to their office.

I was hospitalized at the XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX Hospital in XXXX XXXX, NJ from XX/XX/XXXX to XX/XX/XXXX for approximately 12 days. At the time, I had no insurance coverage. As a XXXX XXXX veteran, medical bill assistance was available to me. Additionally, the hospital had a program that enabled the forgiveness of all related debt for the hospital stay and treatment for which I qualified. Immediately after my hospitalization ended, I applied and was accepted into their medical forgiveness program. Within 120 days of my hospital stay, I received a letter from the hospital notifying me that the entire hospital stay and all related treatment debt had been forgiven. Approximately 9 months after my discharge from the hospital, I received a letter from IC Systems notifying me that I owed approximately {$6500.00} for an unpaid medical bill from the XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX Hospital of XXXX XXXX, NJ. I immediately called the hospital. During the call, I was told that I had no outstanding or unpaid medical bills. Further, the hospital spokesperson stated that not only was the information about the bill incorrect, but that the hospital did not use IC Systems to collect their delinquent debt. After I completed my inquiry with the hospital, I called IC Systems. Their spokesperson stated that she would look into the validity of the bill, but it was solely my responsibility to satisfactorily resolve the matter. IC Systems never followed up or acknowledged this telephone conversation. On more than one occasion, I have attempted to have this debt removed from my credit report with XXXX and XXXX. The reply from both credit reporting agencies has been that the debt appears to be valid. I noticed today that IC Systems has changed the classification of the debt on the XXXX report to show that they are the lender and I am the " borrower '', as of XX/XX/XXXX. Clearly, that is an incorrect statement. The alleged debt is not valid. I believe that IC System, XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, MN is committing a fraud with the goal of collecting a fictitious amount at my expense. In the meantime, my credit score and family are suffering because IC Systems regularly modifies their notes to give the appearance of fresh or renewed collection efforts. At this point, I have been held captive by IC Systems for nearly 4 and half years!!

Around XXXX XXXX, I was notified by my bank that my credit score was significantly and negatively impacted. Following up on the issues, it appeared that XXXX XXXX XXXX ( in XXXX, IN ) reported me for two unpaid bills for the total of {$250.00} to the credit bureau and the I.C. SYSTEM, INC collection agency for the bills that I had never received. In the following days after I received the notice of my credit loss, I contacted the XXXX XXXX XXXX to inquire about the unknown bills, despite multiple calls and requests to speak to someone in the finance office, they hung up the phone. In the meantime, I paid the unknown bill to I.C. SYSTEM, INC, while at the point I still did not have a bill or an itemized invoice. After spending over 40 hours between contacting my bank, the collection agency, the credit bureau, and the XXXX XXXX XXXX, I finally received a bill that indicted two days of visit in XXXX and XX/XX/XXXX. I tried to dispute the charges pertaining to the visit in XX/XX/XXXX, which was denied by the XXXX XXXX XXXX. The nature of my dispute was that due to extreme XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX I made a visit to the XXXX XXXX XXXX, and that was my final visit which was towards the end of XX/XX/XXXX.

I don't know what's going on here. On the XX/XX/XXXX I filed a complaint against IC systems because they were trying to collect money I didn't owe and was never notified about. IC systems responded to the complaint through your portal saying they sent me a letter explaining what steps took place or their results for my complaint. They did this because in their response they said they couldn't verify who registered this complaint? I've been waiting patiently for this notice to arrive in the mail and it's never arrived. Now I am REALLY ANGRY. The whole basis of this complaint was the fact a collection was placed on my report without my knowledge. No notification was ever received by the creditor whom I left in good standing nor the collection agency. Now I receive what is a RIDICULOUS response to this complaint by the same collector saying they can't respond to me through this portal because they can't verify who I am but will instead send me a notice that I have been eagerly awaiting to no avail. Is this what a complaint to the C.F.P.B. looks like? Consumers file complaints that never get answered or resolved? Collectors can just write responses akin to a " bait and switch '' tactic? I am filing this complaint because IC Systems should not be allowed to just leave this complaint unanswered. The case number to my previous complaint is XXXX-XXXX. IC Systems should know better than this. They have my address which was provided to them numerous times in my conversation with them on XXXX. They have now had ample opportunity to send me what they said they would. Because I have not received anything from them EVEN after I have called to complain to them and filed a complaint to your bureau, I consider this proof they are not providing me with any notices and are now willfully disobeying the law and your bureau. I am being serious here. Do I really have to spend time and money to sue them over a collection this small which was never handled properly? If the answer is yes, then I will gladly do so. I will not allow them to jeopardize me obtaining credit on favorable terms or with higher rates for several years. I am filing this complaint so you know what IC systems is doing and so you can possibly look into their practices. If they are blatantly doing this to me, how many others are they doing this to?

The issue seems to be that IC Systems claims that I owe XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX an amount of XXXX. IC Systems also made a delinquent remark on my credit report. When I requested them details and breakdown of amount and my permission for services solicited IC Systems never provided it. Instead they said I had paid it and closed the delinquency charge but left it showing as delinquent for XXXX months. When I stated that I had not paid a single penny and why they closed it and left it as delinquent for XXXX months they re-opened on the outstanding amount. XXXX does not allow for the website to allow for reopening the dispute. So I had to call them and manually open a dispute. My chief complaint with IC Systems is that they have not provided me with details of delinquency charges but continue to report it. I have contacted them in writing and they have not responded. I received a call from IC Systems using a number " XXXX '' and spoke to XXXX. She asked me if I was disputing the debt I said yes. I also informed her that I had requested details of the debt and my authorization and for proof of having requested the service she/or XXXX claimed XXXX me. I have had no documented proof of the same either from IC Systems or XXXX. I also informed her that despite me not having paid any amount the debt was flagged as paid, closed. This is incorrect and paints my credit in a bad light. She then offered to settle the 'outstanding " debt for half the amount. I said I would not pay a single penny until I see proof of my authorization for services they ( XXXX and or IC Systems ) claim I requested. She mumbled some response that I was not able to comprehend. I also asked her how can they mark it as Paid when I had not paid any amount. If I had paid as IC Systems says then why are they demanding half the amount as per the recorded call. She said they will leave it like that and IC Systems would not take further action. I request that CFPB request them for proof of the transaction or remove any mention of debt or collection. In summary I have requested in writing and orally proof of details of the debt being claimed and they are not providing the same. As a honest citizen please assist me in getting assistance to resolve this matter. Thank you. XXXX XXXX XXXX : My letters to IC System are enclosed.

On XX/XX/XXXX I had a procedure performed by XXXX XXXX c/o XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX for XXXX XXXX XX/XX/XXXX I had not received a bill and I reached out to XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX by phone and spoke to Team Leader XXXX XXXX XXXX I communicated that my insurance company had been billed {$17000.00} and that I had not received a bill. I communicated that {$17000.00} far exceeded the amount I had agreed to prior to the procedure. XXXX told me not to worry about it, that {$17000.00} was an incorrect amount and they just sent that to the insurance company. I requested that a bill be mailed to me. After the call XXXX then emailed me a partial Account Review summary via an insecure email. The Account Summary appeared to be incomplete as the Insurance billing portion was cutoff. No bill came in the mail ever. I called back and I requested no further emails since the email was insecure. They told me a bill would be mailed. XX/XX/XXXX I spoke to a XXXX at XXXX XXXX XXXX, because no bill had been received. I informed him that an insecure email was sent with a partial summary on XX/XX/XXXX, but no bill was received. Called back and spoke to XXXX on XX/XX/XXXX and spoke with XXXX. I informed XXXX I dispute the amount, since no bill had been received, and they had billed my insurance {$17000.00}. Since I never received a bill and it appeared they were billing my Insurance {$17000.00}, which was egregious and conflicted with the amounts initially disclosed. It showed a balance of {$1700.00}, but it was not complete and the insurance part appeared to be cutoff. XXXX A {$200.00} check was mailed with the memo -Paid in Full- I had openly disputed the amount with them on XX/XX/XXXX and mailed the check on XX/XX/XXXX to XXXX XXXX PC of XXXX, IL XXXX This information was obtained from the partial Account Summary I received on XX/XX/XXXX. The {$200.00} payment in full cleared my checking account on XX/XX/XXXX. I received a collection letter from IC System for this account. The {$200.00} payment is reflected as being received and applied to a {$17000.00} balance, showing {$16000.00} as in collection. The procedure never, never was supposed to {$17000.00}. The doctor even apologized to me after the procedure, because he could not keep future appointments and said he had resigned and all of his staff had quit.

My name is XXXX XXXX, a federally protected consumer, and I am making this complaint against IC System , Inc., for committing identity theft. I have never given IC System , Inc., any permission to use any of my identifying information to commit mail fraud by contacting me about an alleged debt they claim I owe. I am aware that in accordance with Article 9, the assignment of a defaulted note is illegal. Both the assignee and the assigned are both liable for violations under 15 U.S. Code 1692e ( 12 ). I have not validated any alleged debt with IC System , Inc. and my failure to dispute the validity of these alleged debts shall not be construed as an admission of liability. As of XX/XX/23, I have not received any documentary evidence, such as a trilateral contract, giving IC System , Inc. any right to collect on this alleged debt. I have never received any documentation requesting validation from IC System , Inc., before they committed multiple violations under the FCRA and the FDCPA by furnishing this alleged debt to my consumer report, including but not limited to 15 U.S. Code 1692d ( 4 ) which the FTC defines as debt parking. If IC System , Inc., can not provide me with proof such as a tracking number that they attempted to lawfully validate this alleged debt with me, the consumer, prior to furnishing it on my consumer report, this has been a fraudulently furnished account with forethought and malice as an attempt to bring harm to me and my financial reputation. I am legally refusing to pay this debt pursuant to 15 U.S. Code 1692c ( c ). I am demanding a cease and desist of all illegal activity, any communication and collection activity, of this and any alleged debts until IC System, Inc., can provide me with sufficient documentary evidence that I have any legal obligation to pay them. If this documentary evidence can not be produced and IC System , Inc., continues its collection efforts, I will file for litigation for actual damages caused and IC System , Inc., will be held criminally liable for aggravated identity theft pursuant to 18 USC 1028A, extortion, theft by deception, securities fraud, and mail fraud. Upon the receipt of the documents herein and of this notice, you are hereby notified Pursuant UCC 1-202f. Your prompt attention and response are both requested and required.

I was never notified of this debt in any way fashion or form to request validation before they reported negative information on my credit report. Im seeking immediate monetary relief as well as deletions to all credit reporting agencies not just the major three but all data repositories and data furnishers. Here is also my Debt Validation Request! Dear I.C.

I am writing this formal complaint to express my serious concerns about the unprofessional and illegal actions of IC System Inc. ; reference : ( XXXX ) who have persistently engaged in actions that are in clear violation of the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act ( FDCPA ). In particular, the agency has violated the following sections of the FDCPA : 1. Section 806 ( 5 ) : This section prohibits a debt collector from causing a telephone to ring or engaging any person in telephone conversation repeatedly or continuously with intent to annoy, abuse, or harass any person at the called number. However, the collection agency has been calling me multiple times per day, including before XXXX XXXX and after XXXX XXXX, which is clearly aimed to harass and intimidate. 2. Section 807 ( 10 ) : This section prohibits a debt collector from using false representation or deceptive means to collect or attempt to collect any debt or to obtain information concerning a consumer. Despite this, the agency has threatened me with actions they can not legally take, such as wage garnishment and imprisonment, which is an egregious breach of this statute. 3. Section 809 ( a ) : Under this section, within five days after the initial communication with a consumer in connection with the collection of any debt, a debt collector shall send the consumer a written notice containing various details about the debt. I have yet to receive any such written communication from the debt collection agency, demonstrating a disregard for my rights under the FDCPA. 4. Section 805 ( b ) : This section specifies that a debt collector may not communicate with any person other than the consumer in connection with the collection of any debt. However, the agency has repeatedly contacted my family members, friends, and employer, causing me personal embarrassment and potential professional harm. The actions of the debt collector have caused significant emotional stress and damage to my personal and professional relationships. The collect reminder does not even include a full list of might rights under federal, state, or local laws. I would like the CFPB to take strong action against the debt collector and to ensure that the company complies with the FDCPA and does not attempt any further action to collect this illegal debt.

Failure to comply with these federal regulations by credit reporting agencies are investigated by the FTC ( see 15 USC 41, et seq. ). I have maintain careful records and for your benefit, and as a gesture of goodwill final attempt to have you clear up this matter. You have 15 days to cure. ( I have attached letters I sent to EXP and all 3 companies ). The following on the letters needs to verified : In 2000, the FTC held that the FCRA barred a debt buyer from " verifying a tradeline disputed by a consumer when it didn't posses the original documents. FTC allegations was that upon receiving a CDV form from a CRA that the debt buyer ( s ) and furnisher ( s ) they can not use the XXXX for verification does not constitute an " investigation '' for purpose of section 1681s-2 ( b13 ), when a consumer disputes the accuracy of information reported by debt buyer ( s ) or furnisher ( s ), they should either verify the information with the original documents within the time period set forth in the FCRA or take all necessary steps to deleted the information from the files of all consumer reporting agencies to which the information was reported within 5 business days after receiving the consumer dispute, notify all consumer reporting agencies to which the information has been provided that the information is to be deleted from the file of the consumer who has disputed the account. Consent Decree Order, Section II. As per FTC opinion letter from Attorney General XXXX XXXX XXXX, you should be aware that a print out of a bill or itemized document does not constitute verification.

I, XXXX XXXX believes in the credit reporting system as the most important element to the success of the commercial banking system. I am also a proponent of the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau ( CFPB ) as a tool to streamline issues on credit reports that may be dragging down my overall scores. Accordingly, I address each particular issue directly with the creditor in question, before submitting any complaint to the credit bureaus if necessary. Therefore, I desire the following reinvestigation as follows : 1 ) On accounts where late payments are posted, I respectfully request a review of the past payment history and to ascertain if certain payments could actually have been posted late because of an overlap on the 30-days grace period. I realize that this may happen on occasion, and I request only a summary review internally, and do not require any documentation. 2 ) On any account that falls within the 84-month negative reporting timeline, I respectfully request either the deletion of the account if said account was closed, or the elimination of the prior payment if the account it is still active, this is well within the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) guidelines pertaining to obsolete information. 3 ) Any collections must be proved if either a direct collection and/or debt purchase. In either event I request that a true original copy of right to pursue collection be established with each respective credit reporting agency, and if a debt purchase the guidelines proving transfer of ownership must be submitted to all credit bureaus as well as me personally to validate ownership and the right to collect. I am well within my rights requesting proper documentation as administered through the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act ( FDCPA ), the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau ( CFPB ) and the Federal Trade Commission ( FTC ), in addition to the even stricter guidelines enforced by the office of attorney general in my state of domicile. I respectfully request each investigation to be reported to XXXX, XXXX and XXXX XXXX within a reasonable time period, hopefully 30-days. I realize that the current Covid-19 crisis could cause delays, so the best efforts of each financial institution and collection agency will be appreciated under the current circumstances. XXXX XXXX

Under the Fair Debt collection Practices Act ( FDCPA ), I have the right to request validation of the debt you say I owe you. I am requesting proof that I am indeed the party you are asking to pay this debt, and there is some contractual obligation that is binding on me to pay this debt. This is NOT a request for verification or proof of my mailing address, but a request for VALIDATION made pursuant to 15 USC 1692g Sec. 809 ( b ) of the FDCPA. I respectfully request that your offices provide me with competent evidence that I have any legal obligation to pay you. At this time I will also inform you that if your offices have or continue to report invalidated information to any of the three major credit bureaus ( XXXX, XXXX, XXXX XXXX ), this action might constitute fraud under both federal and state laws. Due to this fact, if any negative mark is found or continues to report on any of my credit reports by your company or the company you represent, I will not hesitate in bringing legal action against you and your client for the following : Violation of the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act and Defamation of Character. I am sure your legal staff will agree that non-compliance with this request could put your company in serious legal trouble with the FTC and other state or federal agencies. If your offices are able to provide the proper documentation as requested in the following declaration, I will require 30 days to investigate this information and during such time all collection activity must cease and desist. Also, during this validation period, if any action is taken which could be considered detrimental to any of my credit reports, I will consult with legal counsel for suit. This includes any listing of any information to a credit-reporting repository that could be inaccurate or invalidated. If your offices fail to respond to this validation request within 30 days from the date of your receipt, all references to this account must be deleted and completely removed from my credit file and a copy of such deletion request shall be sent to me immediately.

I would like to take action against I.C. Systems for knowingly violating my rights under the fair credit reporting act - Section FCRA 623 ( a ) ( 5 ) ( A ). I had a debt that was suppose of been taken care of back in 2018. I do not owe this debt. I have fought XXXX XXXX to get this bill credited back to my account. I had XXXX XXXX service in 2018. In XXXX of 2018, i had moved to a different area. XXXX XXXX informed me that they would not be able to connect service in my area do to lack of signal. They said they had no choice to let me out of my contract. They said the early termination fee will be waved in this case. I returned all 3 cable boxes which i enclosed a receipt for. XXXX XXXX applied the early termination fee to my account anyways, along with equipment charges that was returned. I kept calling them to credit these charges back. They finally did in XXXX of 2018. A few years later, i get a bill from a collection agency reapplying these charges. I been fighting these collection agencies because they been illegally selling back this debt when there is no amount owed!!! This is unlawful! Now this collection agency sent me a new bill for the same charges! IC systems has violated my rights by changing the original last day of payment made on this account. The last delinquency date on this account was in XXXX XXXX. I have not made a payment on this account since then. Any past due amounts i have already paid. These charges are for equipment charges which was returned, and for an early termination fee which was suppose to be waved! I have enclosed a few bills i received so you know i am telling the truth. By law, when a collection agency buys a debt, they must keep the original last date of delinquency on the buyers credit report. They are not allowed to change this date in anyway! This is what they call the time of limitations of a debt. The time a debt can legally stay on someone's credit report. They took it upon themselves, and changed this date to the date they bought this debt! This is illegal and unlawful!!! This is not counting the fact that the debt is not even owed! I want to file charges against I.C. Systems for violating my rights under the fair credit reporting act for damages done to my report! I have enclosed documentation for this account.

I was a former customer of XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX formerly XXXX XXXX for 17 consecutive years. I used their services at my various homes over the years without incident until I moved to XXXX, Fl. I followed the routine process to return equipment and tally up my account before transitioning to my new home. When I moved to XXXX, FL from XXXX XXXX, FL I decided to change providers and not continue with the XXXX service. My new XXXX XXXX XXXX ( XXXX ) - XXXX XXXX XXXX began service on the date I terminated my contract with XXXX. There was no additional month or additional fees or equipment missing when I transitioned these services. I am XXXX years old and have owned and lived around the country ; obviously a mundane change in accounts is routine. However, XXXX billed me for {$230.00} claiming I owed this debt. I disputed this debt through numerous phone calls and correspondence explaining this debt is not legitimate ; and was assured each time ( by XXXX initially ) it would be resolved. Instead, I was sent to collections and have been harassed by various collection agencies requesting written notice in 30 days to dispute the claim ( standard language used ) and have disputed each claim for these past 4 years. I have evidence of these communications, where the incidents are temporarily resolved to my satisfaction after tremendous effort and oversight on my part only to begin again when the debt is sold. This tactic of changing collection agencies and resuscitating attempts to collect on a fraudulent debt is harassment ; there is no other explanation after trying to resolve this issue in a reasonable manner. I am requesting your assistance as I have exercised my due diligence in resolving this concern since 2017 ; and I am going into my fourth year experiencing this harassment. I will not pay fraudulent expenses attributed to me that are not legitimate. I have an outstanding credit history and have always paid my debts on time. XX/XX/XXXXhas not exercised good faith and has certainly lost my good will for the barrage of incessant harassment towards me, a long-standing customer that responsibly paid each and every bill over numerous years and attempted to resolve this concern. I thank you for working with me and look forward to hearing from you. Regards.

I was a XXXX XXXX service customer and in XXXX we planned to move to another home in the same neighborhood. I called customer service to ask my service to be moved to the new address. I was told there would be no additional charge for the move. After they hooked up service at my new address I received a bill from them for the move for {$370.00}. I disputed the bill with them and reminded them that their customer service representative told me there would be no charge for the move since we were already customers. Despite several calls to customer service and repeated requests for them to remove the charge, the charge was not removed. In XX/XX/XXXX we received a collections bill from XXXX XXXX XXXX for {$370.00} for XXXX. I disputed the bill by phone and I was told that they would contact XXXX and get back to me. They never responded. In XX/XX/XXXX I received a collections bill from IC Systems for {$370.00} for XXXX. I disputed the charge again by calling IC Systems. They stated they would speak with XXXX and call me with their findings. They never responded. In XX/XX/XXXX I received a collections bill from XXXX XXXX for {$370.00} for XXXX. I sent a letter this time on XX/XX/XXXX stating " If you believe that I am responsible for this debt please mail me a copy of the relevant documents. Please record that I dispute this debt. If you forward this debt to another company and/or report it to a credit bureau please indicate that the debt is disputed. '' I never received a response. Upon review of my credit in XX/XX/XXXX I saw that I had a collection reported for {$370.00} from IC Systems for XXXX. I contacted IC Systems by mail disputing the debt and making the same statement as I did in my letter to XXXX. They never responded. Upon checking my credit in XX/XX/XXXX I saw a collection reported by IC Systems for {$370.00} for XXXX that states it was opened on XX/XX/XXXX and last reported XX/XX/XXXX. This charge has been disputed since XXXX. This collection is continually sold to different collection agencies and therefore reported as newly opened every year on my credit report since then. I have never received any response to my dispute of this debt from XXXX. I have never received a response from any of the collection agencies who have notified us of this debt.

I have disputed this debt numerous times. I sent I.C. System a validation letter and never received any of the information I asked for in the letter to validate the debt. Also, while the debt is in dispute I.C. System has broken the law. Disputed information is not to be reported while in dispute on credit report and this collection agency has put negative information on my credit report with out validation nor have they responded to my request of validation. I sent this letter to I.C. System : I am writing this letter in response to the phone call/letter received from you on ( Date ). In conformance to my rights under the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act ( FDCPA ), I am requesting you to provide me with a validation of the debt that you talked of earlier. Please note, this is not a refusal to pay, rather a statement that your claim is disputed and validation is demanded. ( 15 USC 1692g Sec. 809 ( b ) ) I do hereby request that your office provide me with complete documentation to verify that I owe the said debt and have any legal obligation to pay you. Please provide me with the following : Agreement with the creditor that authorizes you to collect on this alleged debt The agreement bearing my signature stating that I have agreed to assume the debt Valid copies of the debt agreement stating the amount of the debt and interest charges Proof that the Statute of Limitations has not expired Complete payment history on this account along with an accounting of all additional charges being assessed Show me that you are licensed to collect in my state ; and Your license numbers and Registered Agent If your office fails to reply to this debt validation letter within 30 days from the date of your receipt, all instances related to this account must be immediately deleted and completely removed from my credit file. Moreover, all future attempts to collect on the said debt must be ceased. Your non-compliance with my request will also be construed as an absolute waiver of all claims to enforce the debt against me and your implied agreement to compensate me for court costs and attorney fees if I am forced to bring this matter before a judge. No one should have to be subject to this humiliation especially when it is a unknown account and possible identity theft.

Good afternoon, I am writing in regards to a XXXXIC Systems Collection that has been filed on my credit report. I was un aware there was any outstanding balance to XXXX whatsoever. If you review my history with XXXX I have always paid my balances in FULL. In XXXX of 2020 I moved over to XXXX due to carrier and signal issues I incurred when the merged with XXXX. XX/XX/2020 I cancelled one line, XX/XX/XXXX I cancelled the second, XX/XX/XXXX I cancelled the third, then on XX/XX/XXXX I cancelled the 4th line. Since then I continued to receive bills in the mail and they never did cancel the service. I called and spoke to a XXXX rep on XX/XX/2020 to discuss and figure out what happened and why they didn't cancel the account and why i was still being billed. XXXX could not give me an answer and couldn't figure it out. They stated I had a device to turn in so they sent me a box to return the device on XXXX/XXXX/2020. Since then I never heard anything from them until I was notified via XXXX they sent my account to collections. I called IC Systems the day I received notification from XXXX and they had no clue as to where the total came from and said I had to call XXXX, I called XXXX and they also could not explain why they didn't cancel the service back in XXXX, nor could they explain the charges. They informed me the charged me for the device i sent back because it was damaged and that makes no sense what so ever. The phone was in perfect working condition when I sent it in, if it was damaged I wouldn't have sent it back to them, It would have been cheaper for me to buy the device from them vs sending it back. I have disputed this with XXXX and also IC Systems twice and I get nothing from them other than a note on XXXX that says ( Meets requirement of the Fair Credit Reporting Act ). This is not am acceptable explanation. I offered to pay them XXXX $ but neither IC Systems or XXXX said they had the authority to accept an offer, so who do i need to speak with? They are both trying to collect money from me that is in accurate but neither of them know nor can explain the charges listed on my report. In closing I want this removed from my reports, this account should have been closed via XXXX back in XXXX of 2020, they did not .... Thank you for your time,

I received a collection letter dated XX/XX/XXXX from I.C. System demanding {$150.00} from me for a medical bill they stated I owe to them. Because I did not recall having medical services with their company nor XXXX XXXX and XXXX. On XX/XX/XXXX, I sent a debt validation letter to I.C. Systems requesting that they provide me with The name and address of the original creditor, the account number, and the amount owed. A copy of the original contract that I signed for services. Verification that there is a valid basis for claiming I am required to pay the current amount. Details about the age and amount of the debt including a copy of the last billing statement from the original creditor : a detailed explanation of any interest added or payments made since the last billing statement and the legal authorization for this interest, the date the original creditor claims this debt became delinquent. Whether this debt is within the statute of limitations and how that was determined. Proof of your authority to collect this debt, whether you are licensed in my state and if so, provide the date of the license, name on the license number, and the license number of the state agency issuing the license. If you are contacting me from outside my state, provide the licensing information from your state as well. I was shocked when I received a letter dated XX/XX/XXXX that had an attached letter that was a medical report with my PHI. I never signed a release, I never provided a copy of my state issued identification card, nor did I fill out any forms requesting a copy of my medical report. I.C. System negligently released my PHI to an unknown source without any written consent. Even more concerning is the accounting information listed on the document that I.C. System provided to me. The total amount states {$150.00}, the payment/adjustment states {$150.00} and the balanced owed states {$0.00}. I.C. System has engaged in HIPPA violations, they have violated my civil rights and they are attempting to collect on a debt that has a XXXX balance according to their own records. I am requesting that this company cease all contact and collection efforts with me. I am also request that there be an audit and an in depth investigation into the collection practices of this company.

I was alerted that I had an account in collections as via a credit monitoring app in XXXX of XXXX. I then reached out the collections agency to find additional information on this debt. ( IC Systems was the agency ). The Debt was owned by XXXX for internet services dating back to XXXX of XXXX. I reached out to ask for verification of the debt XX/XX/XXXX. I was told by the XXXX rep that I would receive a bill via email. 2 weeks later I called again because no bill was received and the rep stated that the bill was too old to be emailed but could be mailed physically. I requested that and waited another 2-3 weeks, still no bill. I called again early XXXX and was told that the bill was too old to have a statement sent. I then asked that a request be put in to remove the equipment charge because I turned the modem in when I cancelled service. At this time the rep also told me that the reason I never received a final bill is because the final bill was mailed to my address that I moved from. So now I have no proof that the bill is valid and I am also having to put in a request to have an equipment charge removed. I call XXXX back on XX/XX/XXXX and they tell me that the case was closed for the equipment and that the charge for equipment would be removed and reported to the collections agency. I called the collection agency a week later to see if this had taken place and it hadn't. I waited and called again on XX/XX/XXXX and was told ( on a recorded line ) via the collection agency that if I paid the service charges of {$100.00} that the debt would be reported as paid that weekend and that they would hold the equipment charge on their end waiting for verification from XXXX. The rep stated my balance would show as XXXX. This was a lie. Between that date and today ( XX/XX/XXXX ) I have spoken with XXXX and IC systems at least 4 times each asking why they are not communicating back and forth to clear this from my credit. I wasnt even provided valid proof of the debt but still paid the balance. XXXX says I owe nothing but IC systems says I still owe {$78.00} for equipment. It has been 60+ days and the agency ( IC Systems ) can not seem to update their system even though the debt is now paid in full. They continue to report the {$78.00} balance to the credit bureaus

I received an alert from Credit report monitoring service that negative information was posted to my credit report by I.C. System. I did not know what it was about so I contacted the collection agency. They said that they sent XXXX letters regarding the debt from Medical Doctor office and have not received any response from me so they have posted debt to my credit report. I have not received bills either from that doctor office or from I.C Systems. The bill was from XXXX XXXX when I was admitted to hospital with emergency child delivery and I paid hospital in full. I had no knowledge of bill coming from other doctor office. When I called I.C systems they kept saying that I was supplied the bills and have ignored them. I always pay bill on time, never had debt reported and I clearly was not aware of this. I followed up directly with Doctor office and they advised to deal with I.C XXXX. They said that letters were sent and returned by Post office as they were missing apartment number. They did have my phone on file but have not contacted me to notify about the bill. I am yet to file a complaint regarding this doctor 's office practices. I decided to pay I.C System in full ( {$300.00} ) as they now had my debt and I needed it removed from credit report. I made a payment in full on Monday, XXXX XXXX, XXXX. They said they will send update to credit report the following week. On XXXX XXXX I received a letter in the mail from IC Systems dated XXXX XXXX, XXXX that looked like initial letter from this company. It notifies me that they would like to collect a debt from Doctor office and would like to make payment arrangements. They even offered to use tax refund ( if there is one ) to cover this bill. There was no mention that they have already reported this to Credit Bureau. I believe the I.C System did not follow procedures. They reported debt to Credit Bureau before sending request for payment to me. I would have paid the debt and I do n't need to have it reported. In fact, I would have paid it to the doctor office if they did n't fail to contact me. Instead the lady from I.C System was rude and kept saying that I was delivered XXXX letters from them and previously from doctor, that was not the case. The 1st letter I received was the above mentioned.

I was shocked when I reviewed my credit report this week and I found multiple inaccuracies on my credit report from the 3 major credit bureaus from a collection company that I never have dealt with before. I've attempted several times to ratify the issue with the original creditors and credit bureaus and they still reporting inaccurate, unverifiable information. I have disputed this item with the credit reporting agency and they reported you confirmed the account as valid. I honestly do not believe to ever have any relationship with this collection agency or original creditor. Also there are several inaccuracies with this account the way it's reporting and that's a total violation of FCRA and FDCPA laws and regulations. In a good faith effort to resolve the matter amicably, I must demand proof of this debt, specifically the alleged contract or other instrument bearing my signature, as well as proof of your authority in this matter. Absent such proof, you must correct any erroneous reports of this past debt as mine. I am writing to request that you please provide the following information : 1. Please evidence your authorization under 15 USC 1692 ( e ) and 15 USC 1692 ( f ) in this alleged matter. 2. What is your authorization of law for your collection of information? 3. What is your authorization of law for your collection of this alleged debt? 4. Please evidence your authorization to do business or operate in this state. 5. Please evidence proof of the alleged debt, including the alleged contract or other instrument bearing my signature. 6. Please provide a complete account history, including any charges added for collection activity. You have 30 days upon receipt of this letter to provide strict proof of contract. In the event you can not provide strict proof of contract, you must cease and desist any and all collection efforts and immediately remove any derogatory information reported to the consumer reporting agencies. In addition, you will need to provide me your agreement, in writing, that you are closing your file, ceasing collecting activity, and deleting all information related to this reference number from any and all credit reports youve furnished the information to.

On XX/XX/XXXX I received an alert from XXXX XXXX stating that there was a collection on my credit report from XXXX XXXX with the original creditor being XXXX and an amount of {$320.00}. I immediately contacted XXXX XXXX to let them know that I did not open this account and that it was a result of identity theft. I was given a phone number and account number and was told that this number was ported out to XXXX XXXX. I was told that if I wanted this account cleared up that I will have to file a police report and identity theft affidavit and send it to XXXX. The police report was filed on XX/XX/XXXX with the XXXX police dept and XXXX Mississippi however I have not been able to get a copy of the report because I no longer live there the reason that I filed it with them is because I was told by the representatives at XXXX that one of the accounts was opened up in XXXX Mississippi and that they had no knowledge of where the XXXX account was opened at power XXXX XXXX. I have not been able to get in touch with anybody at the XXXX fraud department. Whenever I call their number all I get is an automated machine and there 's no option to connect with the live representative. however it had a billing address in XXXX, IA. At this point I 'm not sure exactly where the XXXX account was opened that I just know that I have no knowledge of it and I never authorized anyone to open this account and my name and the police have been notified. When I contact the XXXX to let them know that I did not authorize the number poor they stated to me that there was an account open there in my name also but the representatives they 're closed it and stated I have no liability for that account because it was a fraudulent account. However I have not been able to come with a resolution with XXXX XXXX or XXXX I have sent them letters asking for validation of debt or to see a to see a contract that was signed with my signature on it and they could not provide me with that they also stated to me that they could not do anything about the fraudulent account that I would have to go through XXXX to get it cleared up even though XXXX is not the one that 's reporting on my credit report it is XXXX XXXX. I 'm requesting that this fraudulent account be removed from my credit report immediately

In XX/XX/XXXX, my credit card was canceled due to fraud. The representative from Visa asked me if I had just rented a car, which I had not. He said whoever made that charge had all of my information so he needed to cancel my card and send me a new card. In XX/XX/XXXX, I received an alert from XXXX XXXX about a negative account under my name. I looked at the account, and it was a collections account under I C System Inc. the original creditor showed up as XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX in the amount of {$90.00}. XXXX Conducted an investigation, and removed this collections account from my credit report. In XX/XX/XXXX, I received a letter from XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX regarding this debt. Saying that they were hired by XXXX XXXX XXXX to collect a debt of {$90.00}. This was the first letter of any kind that I had received regarding this debt. It was sent to my previous address in which I have not resided in since XX/XX/XXXX. I answered to this letter within the 30 day period stated. I explained my situation and requested more information about this debt and requested proof that this debt is mine. I received a letter back from XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX in which it stated that my request for debt validation was received, was documented, and was forwarded for processing. It stated that my account with their office was closed and returned. At the end of XX/XX/XXXX, I applied for a credit card without realizing that this debt collection was still on my XXXX credit report. This is when I realized that this collections account which is not mine is still there. I mailed in my only correspondence that I have ( which is with XXXX XXXX XXXX and XXXX ) about this to XXXX. They replied by asking me to contact the collections company directly. I have never received any mail, phone call, e-mail, or any form of communication or bill from XXXX XXXX XXXX or I C System Inc. I did not know of this debt prior to it appearing on my credit report. I XXXX I C System Inc and looked up their contact form. I did not feel comfortable providing my e-mail, phone number or SSN in their initial online contact form. I would like to please have this collections account removed from my credit report since it is not mine and it is a result of fraud on my previous credit card. Thank you

This is a formal complaint that you are reporting inaccurate and incomplete credit information. I am distressed that you have included the information below in my credit profile and that you have failed to maintain reasonable procedures in your operations to assure maximum possible accuracy in the credit reports you publish. Credit reporting laws ensure that bureaus report only 100 % accurate credit information. Every step must be taken to assure the information reported is completely accurate and correct. The following information therefore needs to be investigated. 1. I am asserting my rights under the Financial Services Modernization Act and the Fair Credit Reporting Act to " opt out '' of the following two uses of my personal information : a. You do not have permission to disclose personally identifiable information with your nonaffiliated third-party companies or individuals. b. You do not have permission to disclose my creditworthiness to any affiliate. 2. I am further instructing you : a. Do not disclose any of my transaction and experience information to any affiliate of yours. b. Do not disclose any information about me in connection with marketing agreements between you and any other company. 3. Please respond to me in writing stating that you will comply with these instructions. If I have not received a letter within ten days specifically denying my instructions, I will assume your records have been noted to comply with this letter. I am mailing this in a sealed envelope, and I am NOT including my social security number. I believe my name, address and account number identify me sufficiently. I respectfully request to be provided proof of this alleged item, specifically the contract, note or other instrument bearing my signature. Failing that, the item must be deleted from the report as soon as possible. This information is entirely inaccurate and incomplete, and as such represents a very serious error in your reporting. Please delete this misleading information and supply a corrected credit profile to all creditors who have received a copy within the last six months, or the last two years for employment purposes. Additionally, please provide the name, address, and telephone number of each credit grantor or other subscriber.

Back in the mont of XXXX I received a collection letter from I.C. System giving me 30 days to respond or they would assume that the debt was mine. Prior to them sending me that letter I had no recollection of said account. I wrote to them within the time frame advising this debt was not a debt made by me. I will enclose a copy of the signed certified mail with receipt by the one of the company 's responsible parties. After receiving my written response to the collection letter they still insisted on putting this debt on my credit report, it appeared on my credit report this month on XX/XX/2018. Today I called and when the caller got on the phone she advised me that the call would be monitored, I advised her I was recording my call as well she said that she was not cool with it and she hung up. I called back and got XXXX XXXX on the phone and advised her of the same thing, and she said that she was fine with that so we continued the conversation. I asked her why after I had written contact with them did they still after only 6 days put that derogatory account on my credit reports? She stated she didn't have anything showing that I had written in and I advised her that I had a copy of someone's signature. She then said that their company didn't have any original documentation of proof in their office I would have to contact XXXX directly. I then asked her after receiving the letter why didn't you guys put a temporary hold on this account before just rushing to send it over to the credit bureau. She then stated once more that there was no contact made by me or a letter sent. She started being very rude and told me they don't handle disputes they don't verify information that is all something that the original creditor does. I asked her well if you guys can't verify it then why just put it on someone's credit file. She told me " Look, as I told you before you don't need to be calling my company what you need to be doing is calling XXXX '' We are not the ones that you need to speaking to, you need to be speaking to them and then she hung up. I also contacted XXXX and they told me that I needed to know some password, which I don't know because I didn't make the account. after talking with her she just directed me to contact the collection agency.

Hello, My wife and I called XXXX XXXX to get an estimate on how much money it would cost us to file our taxes. They said we would have to come into the office and bring our documents for them to see to give us the estimate. When we arrived at their office XXXX XXXX said that our initial consultation was free and they would start charging once the work started. At that time we asked XXXX what the next step was, and we were informed that we needed to pay {$75.00} for a power of attorney so they could access our paperwork. XXXX took longer than what seemed necessary to get the form entered on the screen and we questioned her if she needed help entering the info on the screen. We assisted her with the information repeatedly to get it all entered, and finally got everything entered. Unfortunately we felt that after this process that possibly XXXX may have some difficulty doing her job, and did n't feel confident in using the firm. We called her secretary following this appointment to discuss whether XXXX is having cognitive or senility difficulties. The secretary asked us if we were going to continue to use their firm, and I said no. We expected to get the bill for the {$75.00} for the power of Attorney, but when the bill came in the mail it was for {$890.00}. I feel this is a gross misuse of billing. I was told the estimate for the work was free. Than XXXX took a long time talking about her other clients and what she does for them, giving examples of what she has done for them. It looks like they are charging us for listening to her long drawn out sales pitch. I am only willing to pay the {$75.00} that we agreed to pay for the Power of Attorney for to be submitted online. This we already consider a loss based on the fact that we did not feel comfortable to have them actually do our work. I contacted them to complain about the bill, and they said they are charging me for the time. I said " What time '' I was told free estimate and {$75.00} for the power of attorney. I also said " You did n't do anything for us to justify charging us {$890.00}. Are you you trying to take advantage of us? ". They refused to hear our opinion, and now we have a second bill from them through a Bill collector called IC System. This is completely unfair.

My name is XXXX XXXX, a federally protected consumer, and I am making this complaint against IC SYSTEM for committing identity theft. I have never given IC SYSTEM, any permission to use any of my identifying information to commit mail fraud by contacting me about an alleged debt they claim I owe. I am aware that in accordance with Article 9, the assignment of a defaulted note is illegal. Both the assignee and the assigned are both liable for violations under 15 U.S. Code 1692e ( 12 ). I have not validated any alleged debt with IC SYSTEM and my failure to dispute the validity of these alleged debts shall not be construed as an admission of liability. As of XX/XX/2022, I have not received any documentary evidence, such as a trilateral contract, giving IC SYSTEM any right to collect on this alleged debt. I have never received any documentation requesting validation from IC SYSTEM, before they committed multiple violations under the FCRA and the FDCPA by furnishing this alleged debt to my consumer report, including but not limited to 15 U.S. Code 1692d ( 4 ) which the FTC defines as debt parking. If IC SYSTEM, can not provide me with proof such as a tracking number that they attempted to lawfully validate this alleged debt with me, the consumer, prior to furnishing it on my consumer report, this has been a fraudulently furnished account with forethought and malice as an attempt to bring harm to me and my financial reputation. I am legally refusing to pay this debt pursuant to 15 U.S. Code 1692c ( c ). I am demanding a cease and desist of all illegal activity, any communication and collection activity, of this and any alleged debts until IC SYSTEM, can provide me with sufficient documentary evidence that I have any legal obligation to pay them. If this documentary evidence can not be produced and IC SYSTEM, continues its collection efforts, I will file for litigation for actual damages caused and I, will be held criminally liable for aggravated identity theft pursuant to 18 USC 1028A, extortion, theft by deception, securities fraud, and mail fraud. Upon the receipt of the documents herein and of this notice, you are hereby notified Pursuant UCC 1-202f. Your prompt attention and response are both requested and required.

To whom it may concern I have been having grief with the same companies over and over. I have disputed these debts on numerous occasions and yes they are removed but they are later reinserted, sold to another debt collection agency, with no update on my credit report or proof that I am the owner of these debts from IC Systems. I have made several calls to the original collector XXXX and XXXX XXXX collections and Fraud and no one is able to help me or tell me what this is about. Today they advised this may be fraud and that I should dispute this account. The only account number I have from collections company is XXXX. They are damaging my credit and reputation substantially without any proof of original contract or signatures from me. The disputes are not even showing on my credit reports and I am aware that my reports should reflect that information. Nor have I received updates from my disputes or original time frame or contract from debt instead after the disputes these accounts are re-aging and that is completely illegal. Also following disputes it seems to me that they are reselling the accounts to someone else after showing removed and then opening again. In addition each time these inquiries are placed back on my credit report I have never received a 5 day reinsertion letter and if there is proof of such letter, please also send to my address. IF not this is yet another violation of the FCRA section 611 ( a ) ( 5 ) ( B ) ( ii ), which states you are required to notify me in writing. I am asking for the last time for this agency furnish original contracts and proof and initial contract dates for all collection accounts they are claiming belongs to me. I will take further legal actions if these accounts are not removed. I have exhausted all my efforts with this company and the games they are playing or illegal. Please review all 3 credit reports to see the removals, re-insertions, and re-aging that is continually happening. I am really doing all I can to get my credit at a good standing but this is really impacting my credit. I was at XXXX and have. The account that is showing on my Credit Report is XXXX and thats also a violation because account number should be dislosed. Please resolve this. Thank you

OnXX/XX/XXXX I received a notice to collect a debt from 2 collection agencies regarding an account with XXXX XXXX and XXXX XXXX. IC systems was one of the agencies and XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX was the other. I spoke with XXXX XXXX at IC systems and informed him that I received another notice from a different agency and he stated that he would note my account and no collection activity would continue. I contacted XXXX XXXX who assured me that they owned the debt ( I have a recording of this call ) and I entered a payment arrangement with them. All of this was done within the 30 days and none of this was reported on my credit reports. I continued to make the monthly payments every month by auto withdrawl. On XX/XX/XXXX, I received a notice that a debt collection was reported on my credit reports. IC systems reported that my account was delinquent. I contacted them and they stated that I should have been paying them all along. I informed them that I was paying XXXX XXXX. I sent proof of all my payments to IC Systems. I never heard back from them. I noticed on XX/XX/XXXX that the autowithdraw from XXXX XXXX did not happen. I called them and they told me that IC systems was taking over the account and to contact them. I called IC systems to 1 ) set up payment with them and to make sure that they did in fact now have the debt assigned to them by XXXX XXXX XXXX, and 2 ) inform them that they still had not removed the delinquency on my credit report which they need to do since I was never delinquent. I was transferred 4 times and all agents kept repeating that the delinquency will not be removed because they did not get payments back in XXXX, XXXX and XXXX even though they have proof that I paid on time to XXXX XXXX. In summary, I am filing this complaint because it violates fair reporting. I was never delinquent, XXXX XXXX XXXX themselves never reporting me as delinquent, and now IC systems has proof that as of XX/XX/XXXX, I made all my payments on time to XXXX XXXX I feel that I should not be punished and my credit impacted because of the disorganization of XXXX XXXX XXXX and their failure to manage the debt collection process. I am unable to reach a live person aXXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX to discuss this matter.

Ok, so I have been receiving phone calls from XXXX phone number for the last few days. On the morning of Thursday XXXX/XXXX/2016 I received yet another one. So being fed up with it, I answered and said hello. All they would say and repeat was that they needed to confirm they were speaking with a XXXX XXXX ( which is me ) before they could disclose any further information. I stated that in that case I would not be providing them any further information on my part and hung up. My thinking was " wait a second ''. You want to call my phone and start demanding I provide or confirm for you personal information about myself while refusing to provide me with information. Not ok!. So being that I am a Police Sgt, I went into investigative mode and started digging to see if I could find out anything based on the phone number I had from them. I discovered that it was a collection business called IC Systems. I further found hundreds of complaints from other people following their dealing with this company. So I returned a phone call to them and asked to speak with a supervisor. Once he was on the phone he also repeated the same line about needing to confirm who I was before he could provide any further information. I explained to him again that I would not be providing any personal information and since he or his company were the ones who had contacted me, they needed to be the ones that were forth coming with information, since I had no way to " prove '' who he was. I also explained that I viewed their telephone communication with me to be harassment and that I demanded my number be removed from their calling list. He said that he could do that and would. If I owe a debt that I am unaware of fine, but how about calling and saying, Yes this is so and so and we have been retained by so and so to attempt to collect a debt that they claim you owe them. At this point I would have the ability to research for myself if I had forgotten something and get back with them. But no, they chose to try and act all secretive and shadowy which if they are legit in their pursuit, it is a very poor way of handling business. I ask that you as a consumer protection agency, please assist me with dealing with this matter. Thank you in Advance

I was made aware of this collection through a credit monitoring service. When I checked my credit report it did not say who the original creditor was. I called the collection agency I.C System, Inc. and they notified me who the creditor was.. I asked the collection agency why the didn't make an attempt to notify me of the debt prior to reporting to the credit bureaus. The woman on the phone who was very rude said they received returned mail. They were sending the statements to the wrong address. However, they did have my correct email and phone number but made to attempt to make contact me that way. I had no knowledge of an outstanding bill with this creditor which was with a medical office as my insurance covered the treatment. I told the women I would contact them first. She again was very rude, was yelling asking me if I was going to pay the bill and I said, " No. '' I phoned the creditor and they notified me that I had a co-pay due from my treatments. They too had sent the bill to the wrong address but never called or emailed me to ask me for my correct address. The office manager realized that it was a mistake to send the account to collections and we made an agreement for me to pay the outstanding balance directly to them and they would call the collection agency to have the account removed from my credit report. I made the payment over the phone immediately. The collection agency reported the next day to XXXX XXXX and XXXX that the account was paid less then the amount owed which was incorrect. Then I received a receipt stating that I paid the debt directly to them which is incorrect. Then they reported to the Bureaus that the account is paid in full but they refuse to remove the account from at the request of the original creditor has made this request more then 6 times. They have said they can't according to the law. They have said they can't provide a letter stating the account will be removed according to the law. They have said if I dispute the account they will fight it. I have manage to get it removed from my XXXX credit report but I can't not get it removed from XXXX XXXX. They have been rude, given false information to me and the creditor numerous times, to the point I've hired a lawyer.

On XX/XX/XXXX I received a written communication from IC Systems in XXXX. XXXX MN offering to settle a debt for 25 % of the balance owed. The account is on behalf of my son and I am the individual financially responsible. The written correspondence came directly from the company and stated the percentage amount and amount to be payed to settle the debt completely. I contacted the company on the morning of XX/XX/XXXX and spoke with an individual stating I could pay the amount via their online payment center. I paid the amount stated in the correspondence received from IC Systems to settle the debt in it's entirety on XX/XX/XXXX. I then contacted IC Systems to confirm receipt of the online payment. They confirmed, however, they then said that the offer sent dated XX/XX/XXXX offering to settle the debt for 25 % / {$480.00} was incorrect and that additional money was owed. I stated that I had talked with someone that morning, and that was never stated. Also, I was in receipt of the unsolicited offer from them, with the specific percentage and the amount owed to settle the debt. I also stated that I paid that amount based on their unsolicited offer to settle the debt in full. The individual would only state that the letter was sent in error. They then sent a letter dated XX/XX/XXXX - 3 days after I paid the amount in the original offer and having talked with a second IC Systems representative - stating the original letter was sent in error. The second correspondence was extremely brief and did not provide nearly the same detail as the first letter and was clearly written in response to my phone call. I feel this is fraudulent. I am in receipt of t he original letter sent by IC Systems offering the settlement and I have my receipt showing that amount paid in full. They are now attempting to say that the original offer was invalid, although they accepted payment. I did not solicit the original offer and I feel they engaged in fraudulent and misleading practices and should be expected to honor the original offer they sent, that was paid - again, per their written offer. The debt was settled based on their offer and should be honored. To come back after the fact should be considered fraudulent and harassment.

This complaint is directly related to a prior complaint Submitted to the CFPB on XX/XX/XXXX. The direct link to that complaint, which was resolved and now closed is https : //portal.consumerfinance.gov/consumer/s/complaint-detail # XXXX I have recently been contacted again by another debt collection agency named I.C. Systems for the same Account with XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX # XXXX. XXXX XXXX XXXX is continuing to initiate fraudulent claims via debt collection for monies that are not owed to them. The bill in questions was paid on XX/XX/XXXX in the amount of {$150.00}. I spoke to I.C. Systems on a recorded line twice today ( XX/XX/XXXX ) about the issue and they refused to provide an email address where I could send proof of payment to resolve the claimed issue. I.C. Systems instead proceeded to collect the debt even after I clearly explained that I had previously resolved the issue by making a final payment to XXXX XXXX XXXX and also via my initial complaint against XXXX XXXX the first debt collector. XXXX XXXX confirmed via their response back to my complaint # XXXX. They stated : " Thank you for your submission. The account in question was placed with XXXX XXXX and was recalled by the client XXXX. '' The client here is XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX. They have now commenced another debt collection against XXXX XXXX XXXX via I.C. Systems for the same account number and amount. I personally spoke with two representatives of I.C. Systems to ask them to cease with the debt collection because their actions are complicit with XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX who is not entitled to any monies, they are claiming is owed to them. XXXX XXXX XXXX paid the debt on XX/XX/XXXX as shown on the attached receipt we have included along with a copy of the debt collection notice from I.C. Systems. This is the second debt collector regarding this matter. XXXX XXXX XXXX is continuing to be harassed by the continued debt collection notices and actions of XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX through the I.C. Systems debt collection agency. Both are complicit in their actions, against XXXX XXXX XXXX and it needs to stop. Every day that this issue is unresolved is timely and costly to XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX and we wish this fraudulent claim to be put to rest for good.

On the XX/XX/XXXX I closed my XXXX account for DSL internet due to moving to XXXX to change XXXX. About a month after we canceled our service we called to make sure that our internet account was closed/Free and clear as well as our other utilities/services. We were notified that our account was closed with a XXXX balance. Shortly after that we received a bill for XXXX dollars and I called XXXX to see what the charges were for and the gentleman from customer service reviewed the account and informed us that they had made and error and we were actually owed XXXX. After that I received an account summary detailing the closure of the account showing a XXXX credit. The day after I received a bill for XXXX dollars along with a collection notice from IC Systems. I called XXXX again talking with various offices customer service, account management, etc. and no one could explain the bill or the debt collection. I then called IC Systems and asked about the debt and how to resolve it. Seems that there was no way for XXXX to remove the collection notice and that I would have to dispute the charge and wait for review. I ended up paying the debt collector in hopes that XXXX error will not affect my credit. I plan on disputing the charge with letter to IC systems but do not have much faith in any resolution with XXXX. I can not tell you the time I dedicate to keeping my finances in order and have never been late on a bill. It is very embarrassing to receive a collection notice. Through some research on I have found huge amounts of complaints about XXXX for the exact same situation. Furthermore please take note to the account numbers on both the Account Summary, and the Bill that I was sent. They do not match between the two invoices, but in XXXX system both numbers associate with the same account. Any help that you could provide would be greatly appreciated we are in the process of closing on a house and this concerns me greatly that it will affect the closing in a negative way despite my stellar credit. Its very frustrating how willing they are to sell you services, but when your done they cant help at all. Thank you, below is the contact information for both companies involved.

IC Systems has violated 809 ( a ) of the FDCPA, in that the company identified has failed to provide written notice of alleged debt or the contents surrounding the alleged debt. The alleged debt just showed up on my credit report without prior notice. IC Systems did not attempt to contact me prior to reporting this alleged debt as a collection to the credit bureaus. As of this date, XX/XX/2021, IC Systems has not provided any initial communication in connection with this alleged debt. Furthermore, I have never heard of this company, nor have I engaged in any business with IC Systems. IC Systems is attempting to collect and allege debt in the amount of {$150.00}, as indicated on my credit report. IC Systems NEVER once mailed me any information pertaining to this alleged debt. IC Systems has also violated 15 U.S. Code 1692g pertaining to the validation of debts because, as a consumer, I was never given the opportunity to ask for validation of the debt. In addition, IC Systems is also in violation of the 15 U.S. Code 1692c surrounding communication in connection with debt collection which states without the prior consent of the consumer given directly to the debt collector or the express permission of a court of competent jurisdiction, a debt collector may not communicate with a consumer in connection with the collection of any debt. I am insisting that this erroneous information not only be removed from the credit report, but my personal information be expunged from all data systems associated with IC Systems. IC Systems is now in violation of the FDPCA and the U.S. Code, they are subject to fines of {$1000.00}, which I may collect by filing a claim in small claims court. I intend to follow through with said suit if I do not hear back from IC Systems within 10 days. IC Systems should also be aware that reporting such invalidated information to the major credit reporting bureaus may constitute as defamation of character, as the negative remarks on my credit profile prevent me from benefits associated with a good profile. I am sure that legal staff will agree that non-compliance with this request could present IC Systems with legal inconvenience with the FTC and other state and federal agencies.

I had numerous medical procedures with XXXX XXXX at XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX in XXXX, Georgia, now doing business as XXXX XXXX XXXX- XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX XXXX, XXXX, GA XXXX ( XXXX ) XXXX. I am insured, and my insurance has paid every bill submitted by the provider. On XX/XX/2023, I had a procedure that was billed to insurance in the amount of {$17000.00}.

On XX/XX/2023, XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX paid XXXX XXXX the amount of {$2300.00}, leaving a XXXX balance, as confirmed by the Credence Explanation of Benefits. Notwithstanding the payment in full, and after hundreds of harassing calls by the vein clinic where numerous times they acknowledged payment and that it was an accounting error by their billing department ( as recently as today ), XXXX XXXX has now referred this claim over to a collection agency, without even sending any notice or documentation at all since XXXX of this year. I provided a written email to the billing address attaching the Explanation of Benefits and documenting XXXX XXXX representatives harassing behavior and never received any response beyond a note that it was under review.

On numerous occasions I have called to attempt to resolve the matter, and am always told it will need to go to a supervisor, but it never gets resolved.

I applied for some lending. I was denied. I was told I have a collection account on my credit. I have never received any calls, emails or mailing concerning and collection account. I was provided a company name from the creditor that we applied for lending. I googled the company and its a collection company called IC Systems. I contacted them and the researched under my social security number, name, address date of birth and said I do not have anything on file for them. So I contacted XXXX XXXX and wanted to dispute findings. I was told nothing at all for collections on my file. A month goes by and I get a notice from XXXX XXXX that there a change in my credit file since I am a member of the credit watch for 8 years now. I contact them and innate dispute. since they can now see it on my file. I get a mailer from them that says they updated my file to show its a valid debt. I contact IC Systems back and still I'm told nothing nothing on file. I literally had to tell them I suspect fraud has been done. She then tells me that under my social the have a file in a completely different name and in the state of North Carolina about 700 miles away from me. She then gives me the name of the creditor that is reporting the info. I tried calling them and was on hold for 49 mins before hanging up. I googled how to report a fraud on there system which is Spectrum which is a internet/cell company and there like 20 documents that they want, including a police report, utility bill, copy of my id and notarized. I have no problem supplying, but they want you to fax it in. in this packet I am submitting it contains my social security.. The main issue is they say it could take over 6 weeks to correct the issue. That is just unacceptable!!!!! I feel if they as a company would have done the job correctly in the first place then none of this would have happened. I feel that a company should verify a persons identity when applying for a item that involves credit when making a purchase. I have had my credit locked with XXXX XXXX, XXXX and XXXX. Had Spectrum done there job correctly then they would of seen or had notice my credit is locked. I don't feel I should suffer 6 plus weeks for there mistake.

I opened two wellness accounts with the XXXX XXXX Hospital for my two dogs. First was opened on XX/XX/XXXX, second on XX/XX/XXXX. Every visit was paid the same day before we left the hospital and on top of those payments the XXXX was collecting monthly charges of {$64.00} every month on first for the first dog and {$42.00} for the second dog on XX/XX/XXXX every month by withdrawing it from my checking account and those funds were later used to pay for some charges for the dog 's treatments and wellness visits. Attached are all the bills and payments showing that everything was paid on time. Unfortunately my dog had to undergo surgery to remove the XXXX in XX/XX/XXXX. XXXX was paid in full. The outcome was very bad, XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX was XXXX and XXXX, XXXX were nXXXX XXXX XXXX together and XXXX XXXX. The vet XXXX XXXX XXXX second time but it did not help and XXXX XXXX again. I took our dog to the other clinic and was told that it was XXXX XXXX, dog was in very bad condition with XXXX XXXX XXXX and whoever did the XXXX did not do it the right way. We were told that the only thing we could do now was to XXXX the dog. So we did. I called XXXX XXXX to cancel the membership on XX/XX/XXXX and asked them to stop withdrawal from my checking account but was told that it is impossible since I had to pay club membership for entire year from starting it, dead dog or not, coming for appointment or not. They kept withdrawing funds for the wellness club for BOTH dogs for the next several months until I closed my account due to identity stolen and money stolen from the account. At this point XXXX sold both dogs ' account to IC System and on XX/XX/XXXX they started collection activity that I have on my credit till now. They want {$300.00} for the dog that actually was killed by their veterinarian and {$160.00} for the other dog that was already under other veterinarian care. Like I mention all bills were paid at the time of their visit, and I even received refund for the overpayment for the dog that was later euthanized. My surviving dog had different veterinarian and I was paying her bills at the new place. I was not going to take my other dog to the place that killed my other one.

In XX/XX/XXXX I was made aware of a collection notice for a company called IC Solutions. This company stated that I owed a bill of {$210.00} to XXXX from XXXX and XX/XX/XXXX. I called XXXX ( XX/XX/XXXX ), and I was transferred to young man named XXXX who found my account, could see where I turned in my equipment on XX/XX/XXXX ( I have this receipt ) at the local branch. He stated that he could see my last payment on XX/XX/XXXX for the period ending XX/XX/XXXX, and stated that I should have been billed a pro-rated amount from XXXX. XXXX also stated that he did not have the authority to credit that amount and that he would escalate to his supervisor that would call me back before XX/XX/XXXX. After receiving no phone call, I called back on XX/XX/XXXX and was escalated to the complaint department, they then told me that they could not credit me and that IC Solutions had to do so. They also stated that IC Solutions had all of the account information. On XX/XX/XXXX I called IC Solutions who then told me that they had to get the information from XXXX and that they would open an investigation. On XX/XX/XXXX I filed a complaint with the XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX. That complaint was answered with a mailing from IC Solutions with statements from XX/XX/XXXX, and XX/XX/XXXX. The two months following my equipment turn-in, and cancellation of service. I did not have a contract, and was billed for services not rendered. This is fraudulent billing, and it is being reported to the credit agencies, which is a violation of the FCRA. I have documentation showing that I turned in my equipment and cancelled my service XX/XX/XXXX and was billed the following two months. If you look at XXXX there are countless complaints of IC Solutions reporting inaccurate information to the credit reporting agencies. I have attached documents that include my receipt for picking up and returning my equipment, payment on my last bill and emails from XXXX for coming into the branch and returning my equipment, and an email from a phone call made after I paid my payment thru XX/XX/XXXX. on this call I was told that I would receive a pro-rated bill for XXXX. This bill also shows that I was billed for XXXX and part of XXXX.

I contacted I C System on XX/XX/2020 to request a debt verification letter and was informed they could not give me one because the said account with a balance of {$3700.00} was in a " Recall Status '' as the original creditor, XXXX XXXX XXXX ( XXXX ) has recalled the account. So I asked why it was on my credit report as being owned by I C Systems and reported to XXXX XXXX on XX/XX/XXXX, if I C systems can not even take a payment from me? I was told to contact XXXX. I contacted XXXX immediately on XX/XX/2020 as well to request a debt verification letter and I was told I could not get one unless they receive an attorney letter on my behalf because their system has changed. So I asked how I could confirm and make payments towards the account and I was told that I could only get verbal confirmation now and even after the account has been paid in full I can only get verbal confirmation and nothing in writing, but the can take payments and send me email receipts of payments made but nothing written on outstanding and remaining balance even after payment has been made. Getting an attorney is an added burden and I am trying to resolve outstanding old debts not get into new ones. This does not make sense. First of all, how can I make payment without getting a debt verification letter which I believe I am entitled to get. How can I pay the account in full without getting a letter that states the account will be reported as paid in full if the outstanding balance. Also, how can I pay the account in full and not be able to get a letter of confirmation that the account has been paid in full. Finally, how can I C System be reporting a debt that they can not legally take payments for. Doesn't a customer have the right to receive a debt verification letter before making payments without hiring an attorney? Doesn't a customer have a right to know who has the legal right to collect a debt and doesn't a customer have the right to a written agreement that a debt will be reported has paid in full after all payments have been made? The conversations with both companies were recorded by both parties and both parties were informed that the conversations were being recorded. Thank you.

Be advised this is not a refusal to pay, but a notice that your claim is disputed and validation is requested. Under the Fair Debt collection Practices Act ( FDCPA ), I have the right to request validation of the debt you say I owe you. I am requesting proof that I am indeed the party you are asking to pay this debt, and there is some contractual obligation that is binding on me to pay this debt. This is NOT a request for verification or proof of my mailing address, but a request for VALIDATION made pursuant to 15 USC 1692g Sec. 809 ( b ) of the FDCPA. I respectfully request that your offices provide me with competent evidence that I have any legal obligation to pay you. At this time I will also inform you that if your offices have or continue to report invalidated information to any of the three major credit bureaus ( XXXX, XXXX, XXXX XXXX ), this action might constitute fraud under both federal and state laws. Due to this fact, if any negative mark is found or continues to report on any of my credit reports by your company or the company you represent, I will not hesitate in bringing legal action against you and your client for the following : Violation of the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act and Defamation of Character. I am sure your legal staff will agree that non-compliance with this request could put your company in serious legal trouble with the FTC and other state or federal agencies. If your offices are able to provide the proper documentation as requested in the following declaration, I will require 30 days to investigate this information and during such time all collection activity must cease and desist. Also, during this validation period, if any action is taken which could be considered detrimental to any of my credit reports, I will consult with legal counsel for suit. This includes any listing of any information to a credit-reporting repository that could be inaccurate or invalidated. If your offices fail to respond to this validation request within 30 days from the date of your receipt, all references to this account must be deleted and completely removed from my credit file and a copy of such deletion request shall be sent to me immediately.

I received an alert from the credit bureaus that this collection account was added to my credit report on XX/XX/XXXX. When I logged into my credit monitoring service the information listed reflects that the collection agency I C System, located at XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX MN, XXXX. Phone XXXX states that the partial account number XXXX was opened with them on XX/XX/XXXX in the amount of {$530.00} and that the original debtor is XXXX XXXX. I have never heard of this debt collector prior today. I have not been contacted or notified of any debt that has been listed with this company. They sent me no correspondence advising that they own the debt, who the creditor was nor advised of my option to dispute the debt. I called the company 4 times today ... ( Calls were recorded )! To find out more information and to dispute the account. I was transferred amongst departments, no information was given. They attempted to fraudulently ask other questions not pertaining to the debt like if I'd moved in the last 12 months, what my previous phone numbers were, if I'd used any other name variations besides my actual name, if I've married or divorced any aliases I might have used and other unprofessional questions rather than just to advise me what the debt was for. I felt insulted and harassed. The Fair Debt Collection Practices Act states that a debt collector must send the consumer a written notice containing the amount of the debt, name of the creditor and a statement stating they have 30 days to dispute the validity of the debt or the debt will be considered valid by the debt collector. Failure by the consumer to dispute the debt within that 30-day time period is not considered an admission of liability. If the agency doesn't follow this process then they have no rights or grounds to collect or report the debt to any credit bureaus and must immediately remove the debt from the consumers credit report. The company didn't contact me within 30 days of assuming the debt and has therefore violated my rights so this needs to be removed from all 3 credit bureaus! I do NOT give the company permission to contact me via telephone, an employer, email or any other means except by US Mail.

I had a XXXX account at my address in XXXX NE and when I cancelled they sent me a shipping label to send my equipment back. I had to call 3 different times just to get them to send me the label and tell me where to send the stuff back to. I finally got the label and was told to use any box, so I packed up the cable modem and wireless router and using their shipping label sent everything back to them. About a month later I received a bill for {$160.00} for unreturned equipment. I called them and said there is a mistake because I have a tracking number showing it was delivered and who it was signed by. She said " well we received one of them but we never got the other '' I said well that 's odd because they were in the same box. She informed me that was the problem because they should have each gone to a different address so that was the confusion. I explained to her that I had called 3 different times just to try and get a shipping label at all and was never informed they needed to go to different locations. She said she would take care of charges on my account and that was the end of it. I never received another bill after that. Next thing I know a few months later I got a notification that I had been turned into collections with XXXX for that same {$160.00}. I called XXXX and explained the situation to them and they filed a dispute which gave XXXX 30 days to respond. On XX/XX/XXXX I got a letter from XXXX that they are not currently handling my account anymore and any information that may have been reported to the credit reporting agency would be deleted. So I thought it was resolved and finally finished. Naturally you can imagine my frustration when I just received a notice from a DIFFERENT collection agency dated XX/XX/XXXX through IC System Inc attempting to collect the SAME {$160.00}. Bottom line, XXXX is charging me for equipment that I DID return and they 've confirmed that I did return it and should 've cleared my account. They 've tried to go through one debt collection agency and when that did n't work they are now going through another one. I do n't owe this money as I returned all of their equipment as required ... and they 've confirmed that!

Due to the fact that my problem doesnt truly exist in the drop-down menu, I will explain it myself in detail. I sent a Creditors Validation letter to IC Systems Inc. on XX/XX/2017. Due to the fact that my problem doesnt truly exist in the drop-down menu, I will explain it myself in detail. IC System Inc. claims I owe a debt from a XXXX XXXX Bill that I actually left in my given time. I had my Personal FinanciaXXXX Consultant XXXX XXXX to speak on my behalf with them as well. I sent a legal authorization form to them as required. I sent them a letter for them to validate the debt in the allotted time frame given by the FDCPA which is 30 days. In my case, the debt was validated in thirty days ( 30 ) by IC System Inc. Therefore, by the FDCPA IC System Inc. fail to prove that I had a bill from XXXX XXXX. So, IC System Inc. was supposed to inform me and XXXX XXXX that they are removing themselves from my credit report for not being able to validate the debt. I have my Personal Financial Consultant XXXX XXXX to speak on my Behalf with them and record all the calls on my behalf. Under the State of Texas Recording Law and IC System Inc. agreed to the recording by accepting my authorization letter signed by me giving XXXX XXXX XXXX authority to speak on my behalf. As you going to see the letter state that all calls will be recorded on my behalf. I am going to provide the recording, the creditor 's validation letter, the mailing dates they received the letter. Now, according to the FDCPA that is the Fair Debt Collection Practice Act the collection company has thirty days ( 30 ) to respond to the letter. Neither one has made an attempt to call not send me a letter stating that they have validated the debt nor have the ceased all collection efforts because they can't validate the debt. According to the FDCPA, a collection company must cease all collection efforts and remove themselves from the consumer credit report if they can't validate the debt ; unfortunately, IC System Inc. is not abiding by the FDCPA. At, this time I like for an investigation to be started for the removal of IC System Inc. from my credit report. I am going to provide all my evidence to my case.

I requested to join XXXX XXXX XXXX on their website on XX/XX/XXXX, and they sent me XXXX cards for my devices. I did not receive the XXXX cards and requested via online chat for XXXX XXXX to cancel my order and close the account on XX/XX/XXXX. I received email confirmation that my request to cancel was initiated. I decided to try in-store to create my account with XXXX XXXX instead XXXX I went to the store on XX/XX/XXXX and was told that there was still an active account preventing me from opening a new account and was told to try over the phone with XXXX XXXX customer service. On the phone with customer service, I was told until the first account is completely purged from their system, I could not open a new account. My case was forwarded to a supervisor, I was told. I called back a few days later as instructed and was able to open my new account with XXXX XXXX ( which I currently maintain and pay the bill monthly on time ). I was told that whatever account was active before is no longer open and was resolved. In XX/XX/XXXX I received a letter of collection from XXXX, XXXX XXXX ' collection agency. I called XXXX on XX/XX/XXXX and explained the situation. I was told that the issue would be forwarded for review and instructed to call back. XXXX 's hours are during my work hours, and it is not easy for me to call each day. XXXX never made any attempt to contact me of their findings or any further action of debt collection. On XX/XX/XXXX I received a notification of change to my credit report for a negative report made on behalf of XXXX XXXX. I contacted XXXX on XX/XX/XXXX where I was told that their review determined that the debt was valid?! And that because I did not follow up with them after the initial call, they forwarded my debt to IC Systems?! This business practice is very unprofessional. I do not owe anything as I cancelled the XXXX XXXX account within 6 days of requesting it, without any services rendered. I have recently contacted IC Systems and filed a dispute with them on their website, however, they have not allowed for me to upload my proof of documentation. This is a farce, and XXXX XXXX is ruining my credit for an error on their end.

XX/XX/XXXX IC Systems XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, MN XXXX To Whom It May Concern : Please be advised that your disregard and violation of the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), Fair Debt Collections Practices Act ( FDCPA ), and my rights as a consumer have caused harm by seriously affecting my credit rating, causing the denial of credit, as well as causing higher interest rates and unfavorable loan terms. Your continuous phone calls causing the telephone to ring repeatedly throughout the day and evening is harassing. Furthermore, at no point in a conversation with your company has your representatives ever disclosed their identity, the company being represented or the reason for the call, which was misleading. These oversights on your part are clear violations of the FDCPA Furthermore, we verbally disputed the debt with your company on XX/XX/XXXX and again via an XXXX through XXXX on XX/XX/XXXX. Not only did collection activity not cease during this time, but you failed to send validation not once, but twice with the 30 day time frame for each dispute. In fact, we have yet to ever receive validation and the letters and calls are continuing even after 90 days. Again, this is a clear violation of the FCDPA and FCRA, which I am sure you are aware of as a Data Furnisher. We are for the 3rd time requesting validation. We are also requesting you review the attached conversation with XXXX, where they clearly state all charges will be removed and the XXXX receipt where they received their equipment back. XXXX XXXX : Once you return the equipment back the unbilled charges will be removed Consumer : So why am I paying for a full month when I terminated the service today? XXXX XXXX : All the charges will be removed once the equipments are received back to XXXX In light of the harassing phone calls, deceptive practices, lack of providing the mini miranda and inability to provide validation after 90 days, we are requesting that IC System correct our account to reflect a XXXX balance, cancel all collection efforts and have the trade lines deleted from our credit history. In the event, IC Systems neglects not to comply, I will file a formal lawsuit

moved from the property that was receiving the XXXX service on the XXXX of XX/XX/XXXX. I then leased the property to XXXX XXXX and XXXX XXXX beginning XX/XX/XXXX. I agreed to pay the utilities until they moved in and got the accounts switched into their name. I had XXXX phone service and internet service both at the time. We were told that if I was to cancel my service then it would not be possible for the new account holder to obtain internet service at that time because there was a waiting list? What we were instructed to do was just transfer the account into XXXX & XXXX name, which we did. This involved at least 2, 3-way calls between XXXX, XXXX and myself to obtain permission. After we thought his was done I continued to get phone bills at my new address which was not serviced by XXXX. I continued to pay them, and XXXX would reimburse me but then after a couple of months XXXX and I both were getting separate bills. I had my payments to XXXX set up as automatic payments through my credit card and in XXXX I wrote them and disputed the payments and told them that I had cancelled the service. My credit card company investigated the dispute, after their investigation they refunded the payments that I disputed. ( letter enclosed ) I then began to get collection letters that I disputed with the debt collectors. The 1st one was from XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX on XX/XX/XXXX, after I disputed it I heard nothing further from them. Then on XX/XX/XXXX I received another letter from IC system. I disputed this again and once again i heard nothing further from them. I went for a mortgage in XXXX of XXXX and my credit which for as long as I can remember has been above XXXX was now below XXXX because of this false charge and I ended up getting a much higher interest rate because of this. Now on XX/XX/XXXX I received another letter from XXXX XXXX debt collection company.All of these companies are after the same debt and none respond after I dispute the debt so I assume that it has been cleared up. XXXX is the absolute worse company to try and deal with, you just keep getting sent to different people and never get anything accomplished. Thank you, XXXX XXXX XXXX

I was referred to XXXX ( XXXX ) by my insurance company after I XXXX. XXXX had me come in six times for very short consultations and XXXX each time. I was not told upfront what the copay was. A few weeks after my appointments, I learned that the copays ranged from {$60.00} to {$80.00} per visit. I was shocked because many of the visits were only XXXX minutes each with a nurse practitioner. When I was presented with my bills ( totaling {$300.00} ), I tried to dispute the claims, and spent hours on the phone with my insurance company and with XXXX. In the end, I ended up paying the XXXX invoices totaling {$300.00} because they would not budge with the copay amounts they were charging, and my insurance would not cover it. I sent XXXX the six payments in XXXX XXXX. By then, my payments had already gone into collections and I was receiving mail from a debt collector between XX/XX/XXXX-XX/XX/XXXX. I talked with them on the phone on three separate occasions, verifying that I had indeed paid the {$300.00}. Finally, after several months of hearing from them, they stopped contacting me. The last time I talked with them, they verified that they noted the debt was paid and that I would not be contact by them again. However, in XXXX XXXX, I was contacted by a new debt collector, called " IC System ''. They maintained that I had not paid the {$300.00} in debt. I called them up right away and said that it had indeed been paid in XXXX XXXX, and I asked that they clarify this with XXXX because I did not want to keep getting harassed after I had paid. On XXXX XXXX, XXXX, I received a letter from IC System that XXXX said I had not paid the debt, and that they were still waiting on it. So today I sent them proof that I had paid, through my XXXX XXXX bank statement showing scanned copies of the XXXX deposited checks. I sent a cover letter along with this proof asking that they please stop contacting me and that they wipe my credit clear of this debt because I had paid it within 3 months of receiving the original invoices. This entire ordeal has been very time-consuming and frustrating because I paid the debt nearly a year ago and am still being harassed about it.

I have been experiencing issues with I.C. Systems regarding an alleged debt that they have been reporting on my consumer report. The debt amount is listed as {$1500.00}, and I have been disputing its validity since XXXX of 2022. Despite multiple attempts to request verification of this debt, I.C. Systems has not provided any supporting documentation to prove its validity. On XXXX, I sent my XXXX and final letters to XXXX XXXX I.C. Systems, requesting proof of the alleged debt and how they determined it meets the requirements for reporting. However, they have continuously disregarded my letters and have persistently reported the debt to my consumer report without providing any verification. Additionally, I successfully submitted a complaint to the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau ( CFPB ) complaint # XXXX about this unverifiable debt approximately a month ago. Logged in to the CFPB portal today to check the status but somehow my complaint can not be found. I.C. Systems has continued to report the debt XXXX more times within a two-week period. The most recent update was reported on XXXX, XXXX and XXXX I believe that I.C. Systems ' actions are in violation of the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act ( FDCPA ) and the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ). Their failure to provide adequate verification and their continuous reporting of an unverified debt have negatively impacted my creditworthiness and caused unnecessary distress. I am seeking resolution in the form of a cease reporting, where I.C. Systems immediately stops reporting this unverified debt to my consumer report until they can provide adequate proof of its validity. I request that they comply with the FCRA and FDCPA regulations to ensure accurate and lawful reporting practices. If they fail to cease reporting within a reasonable time frame, I request that appropriate fines be imposed on I.C. Systems, amounting to {$1000.00} for each day the unverified debt remains on my consumer report. Thank you for your attention to this matter, and I hope for a swift resolution to address these violations. Sincerely, XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX. XXXX XXXX, CA XXXX Email : XXXX XXXX

On XX/XX/XXXX, I received notice from my mother who is not on the account or an authorized party to the account that she received a call from IC Systems. They stated that I had an account in collections for me. Provided her with my name, address, email address, phone number. The name of the account as being with XXXX, the amount of the debt, how many days past due the debt was. They knew this was not me yet they provided all of the information to an unauthorized 3rd party and violated my rights under the FDCPA. She indicated this was not my number ( which it is not ) and that she would give me the message and hung up. She then notified my about one hour to an hour and a half later that they called her back again looking for me on this debt after she already told them this was not my number and after they already disclosed my debt! My wife called the company and immediately asked for them to cease and desist calling. They kept asking when we were paying. She told them that they had violated the law and disclosed all of our personal financial information. They just kept saying ummmm. They said that they would send me to consumer affairs and after 4 attempts to reach someone and more than 14 minutes of being on the phone, no one at consumer affairs came on the line. While on the phone, I discovered that this company is known for their deceptive practices while attempting to collect debts and their known FDCPA violations. I told them this was not right and again I did not get anywhere. I feel as if my privacy has been grossly violated and that the continual calls and violations need to stop. I need to ensure calls to XXXX have completely ceased as this is not my number and no information should be disclosed to anyone but myself or my wife. I truly feel that due to the known violations of the disclosure that my credit should be cleared and the debt expunged and that XXXX should seriously look into an accredited collection agency which IC Systems is not. Also, when my wife called the company, they did not disclose their name as they should while initially calling their XXXX number. She had to ask them the name of the company and for details.

I was contacted by IC systems approximately 1 month ago requesting payment for a debt that I had previously paid over 2 years. After I informed them of this, they indicated that because the company was based in NY XXXX, the state laws require the company to validate the debt first -- if they could not validate that the debt was not paid, there would be no additional action. At that time, the collection had not been reported to my credit report and I was explicitly told that if the company could validate that the debt was not paid, it would not be reported until I was contacted to provide additional verification. Approximately 1 month later, I was notified that there was a new collection placed on my credit report. When I called IC systems to inquire, the indicated that the debt was validated as still outstanding by the vendor so it was reported to the credit bureaus. After extensive discussion where I indicated that this was not the agreement made with the previous representative, I was told that they only way they could " delete '' the listing on my credit report was if I paid the debt but that this was a " XXXX time '' agreement and I needed to make the decision now. Because I had paid the debt previously, this amounted to extortion - I was forced to make a decision to pay the debt again or deal with ongoing disputes with credit agencies providing documents verifying the amounts ( which I have ) with not certainty that it would be removed. Given the lack of certainty and the fact that I was " forced '' to make a decision on the line, I opted to pay the debt. At this point, I have already paid the debt and hopefully this will be deleted from my credit reports as promised. That said, these practices at the least are extremely unethical and most likely illegal. First, misleading me about the process with respect to a dispute process and then posting to my credit report without informing me about the result of that process is bad business practice. Second, threatening that deletion would not occur if I did not pay over the phone is extremely disappointing and represent extremely questionable tactics on the part of the collection agency.

First main issue is that another supposed collection company collecting on behalf of XXXX XXXX XXXX has contacted me again for the same {$2100.00}. Last time I submitted a complaint the company was claiming to be XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX collecting for XXXX XXXX XXXX, in the amount of {$2100.00}. I do not want this derogatory information to hurt my good credit that I have worked so hard to obtain and keep. Once again I am disputing that this is not my bill. Again, 1 ) I have never been in a contractual agreement with the reporting company 2 ) I have never been late with payment or delinquent with XXXX XXXX XXXX because I DO NOT have an individual account with XXXX XXXX XXXX. 3 ) The obvious how can you be delinquent the same month an account supposedly was opened. 4 ) This is obviously a fraudulent activity and 5 ) this happened in 2020 twice but under a different name for XXXX XXXX XXXX when I disputed it was removed according to FCRA practices. 6 ) I have done my due diligence with disputing this several times and requesting they provide proof. I already have placed the fraud alerts on all 3 credit bureaus because of this bill that is not mine randomly shows up. Which has led me to use my right to make formal complaint against this XXXX, XXXX and XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX. I do not owe anyone any money. As my credit file indicates 100 % excellent payment history because I pay my bills and creditors on time every month. The right and fair thing is to have this company to stop writing me and ensure removal of any inaccurate /fraudulent information from my credit bureaus and their records. As well, as for XXXX. XXXX, XXXX to cease from reporting this inaccurate information and or provide documented proof that this account belongs to me. There are no documents me for me to provide because again I have never been in a signed contract with XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX nor am I in default or have been delinquent with an individual account with XXXX XXXX XXXX. I have even contacted XXXX XXXX XXXX on several occasions regarding this same matter and they always tell me they do not have me has having had an account with them. Kindly, XXXX XXXX

On XX/XX/2021 I terminated a contract for XXXX XXXX and returned the equipment ( router and EMTA ) via a XXXX store. The next day moved I moved out of an apartment in New York. Also on XX/XX/XXXX a claim for {$120.00} was sent by XXXX to debt collections agency I C Systems. From my XXXX bill for XX/XX/XXXX I can see that a {$120.00} charge for unreturned equipment was added to my bill. Yet on XX/XX/XXXX a XXXX service agent confirmed that my equipment was received on XX/XX/XXXX and no balance was owed. I now have a derogatory mark for an account in collections which has significantly damaged my credit. I disputed the account vis XXXX and they rejected the dispute claiming the debt was valid. I have proof of all of this : I kept my XXXX receipt ; I have billing documents from XXXX ; I have the credit report information showing the account was opened on the day I returned the equipment. I have contacted XXXX who confirm there is no balance owed and are writing a letter to that effect. I have attempted to dispute with IC Systems ( results TBD ). I think I will eventually be able to resolve this for my account but it has taken up hours of my time and delayed my access to financial services ( I was trying to apply for a credit card which my current score would not qualify for ). My partner and I also wish to purchase a house next year and this could cost us a fortune ( or months of our lives ) if it is not resolved. Light googling reveals plenty of other people suffer the same treatment and many of them were less fastidious record keepers and are simply out of luck. This is also the *second time* I have had issues with XXXX for non-return of equipment so I know it is routine ( and is why I kept all documents ). It is, in my view, extremely unethical and should not be legal to send a bill for unreturned equipment to collections prior to the end of the window for equipment to be returned plus some buffer for things to actually be processed. It is an attempt to collect on debt before it is even possible for it to be owed. I am certain that as a scare tactic it cows plenty of people into paying and pads XXXX bottom line.

In the end of XX/XX/XXXX I noticed IC System showed up on my XXXX XXXX Credit Score under XXXX. At that time, I reached out to IC System to inquire about nature of debt. I was informed that the debt is from an XXXX XXXX line between the years of XX/XX/XXXX and XX/XX/XXXX. I communicated to the representative that I am unaware of services I received from XXXX during that time period. I was told to reach out to XXXX for confirmation. Upon reaching out to XXXX I was told that they no longer have any information on accounts and to contact IC System. On XX/XX/XXXX, IC System offered to reduce amount by 50 % to {$110.00}. I reiterated that I still have no knowledge of the account but I wanted to resolve this credit issue and was becoming increasing frustrated and exhausted from length of call without resolution. Out of pure exhaustion and frustration I attempted to pay the amount to get all of this behind me, even though I was still unaware of origin of debt and debt collector reported not having the information. This led to several more hours of attempting payments online and being directed to bank payment sites at the instruction of representative. Outcome of this multiple hour call was a confirmation number from site suggested to go to for payment. I was told I would receive an email to confirm. Weeks later, I still had not received email or confirmation and called back. Representative informed me no payment had been made even though they had a confirmation number they referenced in account. I was informed that I paid XXXX directly and I shouldn't have. I informed IC System I only followed their laborious and confusing instruction. After call ended I checked bank statements to see if payment had been made or not. Charge did not leave my banking account. I feel duped and not even sure this is a legitimate debt collection agency and I am unwilling to pay or settle for a debt I am not aware of and collector can not provide information on. Feeling extremely frustrated and hoping submitting this complaint will provide some resolution and/or shine a light on a fraudulent or incompetent debt collection agency.

XXXX XXXX provided internet services at my previous address ... XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, Mi XXXX. In XXXX of XXXX, final payment resolved for the full remaining balance owed on the account for the services rendered, after the home had been sold. Harassing calls and letters from XXXX XXXX followed one month after services were disconnected by me and shortly before the final payment had been made. The company is stating that I owe money for equipment that was used for the duration of the internet services. There is not an existing or past contract that was signed or agreed upon, by me nor any other member of the household for the rental or leasing of the equipment at my home. I paid in full for the services and or any equipment as stated on my monthly bill. I have contacted IC Systems Inc. twice in writing regarding my dispute. I have specifically requested that they produce and submit back to me any signed contractual agreements where it indicates that I understood the equipment was leased, including amounts owed and other pertinent details. I have not received any responses back as of XX/XX/XXXX. To further add injury in my claim against this company, they are now reporting twice as a collection account, through a different company, XXXX XXXX Solution. For the same amount but with a different account number. I feel harassed and bullied by both companies in a retaliatory effort upon ending services. It is heavily affecting moving forward by falsely reporting to the credit bureau and not responding to my request. I need help and some resolve in this matter. I am asking that you demand from both IC Systems, XXXX XXXX and XXXX a proven contactual agreement, in which I am certain they do not have, or they remove both collection accounts from my credit report. I am hoping they will comply with your request. No company should be able to do as they wish in regard to falsely reporting to credit bureaus. I work very hard in keeping my credit payment history in great status and this is the only collection account on my credit report. Falsely reporting is intentionally misrepresenting my payment history which is FRAUDULENT.

IC System Inc in Minnesota filed a City of XXXX collection charge off account with the credit bureaus, in the amount of {$360.00}, dated XX/XX/XXXX. I have not had an account with a company named " City of XXXX '' as listed in the credit bureau files. I have attempted numerous times to have this account deleted, but IC System Inc continues to dispute with the credit bureaus, stating the information is correct. IC System Inc had a similar collection account in my name for the City of XXXX, dated XXXX in the amount of {$340.00}. This account was deleted XX/XX/XXXX on one credit bureau file, I believe, if not all credit bureau files. I live in XXXX, Oklahoma. The collection agency is in Minnesota.

The amount IC System Inc is reporting to the credit bureaus equal over six months of unpaid water, sewer and trash service. I find the amount IC System Inc is reporting to the credit bureaus, as exorbidant. I find it very difficult to pay an out of state collection agency, in XXXX XXXX, Minnesota collection agency, for an Oklahoma water, sewer, trash account. This may be a scam collection agency. The XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX of Oklahoma, does not usually, Sell a delinquent water, sewer, trash collection account to an out of state collection agency named IC System Inc, in Minnesota, such as this collection agency.

On XX/XX/20 I was alerted that my credit rating dropped several points. I investigated and found it was from a collection agency called IC System. I called the company first thing in the morning XX/XX/20. The agent told me the {$450.00} debt was from XXXX XXXX. I told the agent rather than paying them, Id rather call XXXX and get back to her if necessary. I found the receipt for our in person return of all equipment from XX/XX/20. I called XXXX the following morning and found I had a balance of {$130.00}. I immediately paid that balance over the phone with XXXX. I asked the representative at XXXX to check and see if she showed any other debt to their company. After searching My name and account by state, birthday and ssn she confirmed I had no other outstanding debt. I called IC System back and kindly asked them to remove the debt due to the fact I had paid XXXX and was willing to provide receipts, account numbers, etc. that validated that the equipment was returned and bill was paid. The agent XXXX XXXX was not interested in the fact that I had proof that I paid all debt and returned all equipment to XXXX. IC Systems best solution was to pay 70 % of {$450.00}. I was not comfortable paying any money I dont owe. Although I have documentation IC System refuses to acknowledge my receipt that shows the corresponding account number matching theirs for my account and is unwilling to remove the inaccurate derogatory item from my credit record. I also never received communication by mail from IC System regarding this account. The timing of this is painful during a national Covid19 pandemic. I am preparing to send my daughter to college in a few months, so the impact on my credit is exponentially damaging to our familys plans. IC SYSTEM is using reckless tactics to collect a bounty that has been settled. Their collections methods are unscrupulous and lack integrity. IC Systems lack of willingness to acknowledge settled debts shows gross negligence due to the fact that they are deliberately maintaining the derogatory status on my credit reports which is adversely impacting my credit rating.

I began receiving bills from XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX a XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX company in XX/XX/XXXX for services rendered in XX/XX/XXXX. Upon receipt of the first bill, I reviewed my explanation of benefits ( EOB ), which explained that dollar amount was the contracted adjustment and the patient ( me ) was not responsible. I contacted the billing department for the above company and they stated they would make notes as they were awaiting the EOB and to disregard the bill. In XX/XX/XXXX, I received another bill requesting the same amount. This time the individual I spoke with informed me that they received the EOB and the adjustment would be made to my account and to disregard the bill. In XX/XX/XXXX, I received another bill - at this point I became concerned that this would lead to a report to the credit agency bureaus. The individual I spoke with time stated the same as the previous employee, that they had received the EOB and the system would be adjusted to reflect no monies were due from me. The individual further explained that they were unable to prevent the bills from being sent but instead reassured me that based on the EOB the account would be corrected and I could ignore any more bills as once the account has been corrected the bills would cease. I asked would the fact that I had been receiving bills monthly cause my account to be turned over to collections and was told no because I was not responsible for the balance. I did not notice any more bills effective XX/XX/XXXX. Today, XX/XX/XXXX, I received a call from IC Systems, a debt collection agency regarding a bill with XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX. Per the debt collector, the account was submitted to them on XX/XX/XXXX. I called the billing department today and the automated system stated that the wait time was in excess of 50 minutes ; however, at the 30 minute hold time the call is automatically disconnected- this happened twice. I have attempted to reach their corporate office to no avail. My employer requires me to not have any derogatory items on my credit and this false report to the debt collection agency had placed my employment in jeopardy.

I paid a debt in full in XXXX/XXXX/XXXX to XXXX. I debt that I had to pay because I lost my home and where I was moving did not over XXXX service. XXXX although I had proof would not allow me out of the business contract I had. I paid the debt through a company called XXXX XXXX XXXX All payments were made payable to XXXX and sent to XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX I have email letter from XXXX that states paid in full XXXX/XXXX/XXXX. Now a collection agency IC System is trying to collect XXXX from me, which was part of the balance I had already paid back in XXXX on the same account. I filed a complaint with the BBB and called XXXX. IC System is refusing to remove the debt from my credit report stating the have the right to do so because they have validity of the debt. They refuse to speak to me when I called them because I reported them to the BBB. The reason I went to the BBB is because they never sent me validity of the debt until I made the request through the BBB. I thought it was a scam because I had paid the bill in full XXXX/XXXX/XXXX. When I called XXXX they no longer have a ledger of payments made and want me to fill out a complaint form. XXXX ca n't even tell me if they turned my information over to IC System. They stated they deal with several companies. In the meantime I have to deal with information on my credit report. Why when this bill was from XXXX, paid in XXXX as agreed can a collection agency come up with something like this? I use checks to make payments and sometimes money orders. I will have to now try and locate both from years ago. I would have to pay for XXXX to XX/XX/XXXXstatements in order to do this and feel I should not have to do so when I have confirmation from the XXXX XXXX that I was paid in full. I have 26 communications over the 7 months of me paying XXXX payable again to XXXX. I am unable to reach the XXXX XXXX listed below and get no answer. Please Help!! IC System XXXX.

On XXXX XXXX around XXXX, I obtained a copy of my credit report and seen the account IC SYSTEMS on my report. I opened a dispute with XXXX and the representative also told me to contact the company IC SYSTEMS. I contacted IC SYSTEMS and I told them that their attempt to collect a debt is very unlawful. I spoke with XXXX XXXX Employee # : XXXX, I asked him how did his company obtain my information to furnish information on my credit report, he told me through XXXX. I asked him if the company verified that the alleged debt is valid against me and if they did verify where is the documentation. He then proceed to cut me off and say we can set up a payment plan. How can we set up a payment plan, when you can not let me know how you verified the information that XXXX sent you? This company is in violation of many FCRA acts. Listed below is the biggest act that I believe they are in violation of. 18 U.S. Code 894- Collection of extensions of credit by extortionate means. ( a ) Whoever knowingly participates in any way, or conspires to do so, in the use of any extortionate means ( 1 ) to collect or attempt to collect any extension of credit, or ( 2 ) to punish any person for the nonrepayment thereof, shall be fined under this title or imprisoned not more than 20 years, or both. IC SYSTEMS is in violation of this Act as they have not verified or validated the debt but are still attempting to collect. They are punishing me by reporting negative information on CRA reports which is negatively impacting my ability to obtain credit. I also NEVER consented for XXXX to give nonaffiliated third parties my information and I never received notice that XXXX was giving away my information. Unfortunately XXXX was in violation of the GLB Act. They failed to notify me a consumer about their information-sharing practices and failed to tell me of my consumer right to " opt-out '' if I don't want their information shared with certain nonaffiliated third parties. So even if this company IC SYSTEMS believes that they have followed all laws under FCRA rules, it is still in violation under the GLB Act.

This debt arises from a XXXX account that was canceled in NJ before my move to FL. I canceled the account in XXXX XXXX. The debt arises from utility usage from XXXX XXXX to XXXX XXXX. While the account was active and I was living in NJ the account was paid through XXXX bill pay site. After XXXX XXXX no additional bill was presented for payment on the bank site. No e-mail, paper bill or phone call was received. The first contact about this delinquency was made in XXXX when a different collector contacted me by phone. I responded with information that I moved to FLA and canceled the NJ account in XXXX XXXX. I never heard from that agency again, who indicated they would further investigate the situation. On XX/XX/XXXX I was texted by XXXX that I had an account in collections. I went to the XXXX site and pulled up the information. I contacted the agency, IC System , IncXXXX, who did not attempt to call me on the phone ( I still have the same phone number ), mail, or e-mail. I explained that this is a recurring error, they told me the debt would remain on my credit report until I paid the debt. I paid the debt that does not belong to me to avoid further damage to my credit. This company unethical collection tactics by reporting the erroneous debt to credit agencies without speaking with me or investigating the debt. They not only threatened to report the erroneous debit, they actually reported it without contacting me. I am now spending numerous hours to fill out disputes and enter statements with my creditors. I am getting e-mails and phone calls from debt repair agencies and my credit score dropped over XXXX points! The agency indicated it would take XXXX to XXXX days to remove the collection from my credit report after I satisfied the debt. If no payment, the collection would remain. They were unwilling to further investigate the original error made by XXXX. The account was canceled so long ago l ( almost XXXX years ) that I no longer have any of the account information or anything I did with the original agency to dispute that the account was active after XXXX XXXX.

At approximately XXXX p.m. XXXX on XXXX XX/XX/2018 I received a telephone number while I was attending XXXX classes ( my full-time job ). The number that showed up on my caller identification was from ( XXXX ) XXXX and was listed as a " telemarketer. '' The female caller asked if I was " XXXX '' and was she speaking to him. I said " yes. '' The female caller ( whom I later identified as XXXX XXXX representing I.C. Systems ) began to tell me that I owed a debt of {$90.00} plus dollars for XXXX XXXX. After I told XXXX XXXX about the 'fact ' that I don't owe this debt and 'vehemently ' deny it being my debt ; XXXX XXXX began to engage with me in a very closed-off manner accusing me of cutting her off from speaking and telling me that she and her company aren't making money from this transaction. XXXX XXXX falsely represented the money she claims is owed to her and I.C. Systems. Earlier in 2018 I switched cable providers and informed XXXX XXXX as such. During a series of phone calls between XXXX and myself it was told to me that I no longer owed any monies and my account was " paid in full. '' I moved on. However, I then get contacted by XXXX XXXX who is purportedly representing I.C. Systems ( which when asked for the address of her company I was denied that address ) telling me I owed more money than XXXX claims which is zero! I reminded her that I felt she and her company were just trying to make money and that they had bought ( what she described as a contract ) this wrongful debt and was attempting to take money from me. I also told XXXX XXXX to never contact me again ( as this is a work number and I was in school and it disrupted a discussion I was involved with ). XXXX XXXX did falsely say that the telephone ( XXXX XXXX XXXX was the only number she and I.C. systems had. If that is so, why was the phone number she was calling from state otherwise as listed earlier? The fact is XXXX XXXX ( if that is even a real person ) and I.C. Systems are involved in a racket to manipulate innocent victims into giving them money which is criminal and thus should be punished as such.

This all started with XXXX when I received a bill earlier this year for medical expenses of {$140.00} from services received on XX/XX/XXXX for my daughter that was already paid by my Health Savings Account ( HSA ) Bank automatically on my behalf on XX/XX/XXXX. ( I have automatic claim forwarding where a check or ACH payment is made automatically for what I owe from my HSA from my HSA bank ( XXXX XXXX ) ). I submitted a copy of my HSA statement to prove that the debt was paid. I continued to get calls about the debt and told XXXX that I sent a copy of my statement to prove that the debt was paid. The last associate I spoke to, on a recorded line, stated that she found my payment but that it was coded incorrectly and would need to be sent back to administration to be fixed. I was assured that a cancelled check to further prove payment was not needed and that the account would not go to collections. A month later, I received a validation of debt letter from IC Systems claiming that I owed XXXX {$140.00} that was not paid. This is the same debt that I spoke to XXXX about previously and submitted my bank statement to prove payment. I then disputed the debt and sent a copy of the statement proving payment to XXXX to IC Systems. I received yesterday, XX/XX/XXXX, a letter from IC Systems that the debt was valid and that I owed {$140.00}. I am furious and am going on vacation with my family. I now have to take time away from my family to call my HSA bank to request a copy of a cancelled check, from ten months ago, to further prove that I do not owe {$140.00}, the debt was paid, the check was cashed by XXXX and was not correctly posted to my account. It saddens me that I have to go through such great lengths to prove that a debt for a medical expense from last year was paid ten months ago. I am also concerned that this may be on my credit report as a debt and would be inaccurate as the debt was paid. I am attaching a copy of my bank statement which clearly shows that a {$140.00} check was cashed from my account that was sent to XXXX for a claim on XX/XX/XXXX on page 2.

I have my credit monitored. Whenever there are any changes, I receive email notifications. On XX/XX/2020, I received emails from both my XXXX Credit monitoring and my XXXX monitoring that a debt collector, I. C. System , Inc., flagged by credit report. I had never received any notification that a debt was attempted to be collected by any company. I didn't even have a reference number. I only had the name of the debt company trying to collect money owed because of my credit monitoring service. I immediately called I. C. System, Inc. and able to verify that its XXXX that wants to collect a payment of {$82.00} dollars. I ask the Debt collector why I had not received ANY notification of a debt owed. The customer service representative told me that they had the wrong apartment number so their letters were " kicked back '' to the company. Therefore, she acknowledged that I received no notification. I asked why they had not called me to verify my address or to inform me of the debt owed and they said that the Company did call my cell phone on XX/XX/2020. However, the company did not leave a voicemail. Also, I have no record of a phone call being received. The company did not have any record of trying to call me after XX/XX/2020. Therefore, the company did not notify me of my debt prior to reporting it and wreaking havoc on my credit report. Instead, the Company waited 90 days after having the account to flag my credit. Now, my credit has been compromised and my high score ruined because of an administrative error due to the company. I do not see how it's fair for a debt collector 's administrative error of trying to collect {$82.00} dollars results in years of hard work undone. I paid the debt immediately. The debt could have been easily settled in XXXX and there would have been no reporting on my credit if the Agency had officially notified me of the debt owed. It appears that the company purposefully waited to report it to credit reporting company so I would call them. The confirmation of payment is XXXX and the Reference number of the debt is XXXX XXXX.

Just 9 days after its XX/XX/XXXX " Account Update, '' I.C. System sent another collection letter dated XX/XX/XXXX ( attached ), purporting to be an " Account Validation. '' As purported " validation, '' I.C. System sent the same bogus XXXX invoice dated XX/XX/XXXX I.C. System previously sent to me on XX/XX/XXXX ( attached ). I informed I.C. System by letter dated XX/XX/XXXX ( attached ) that I had never previously received that XXXX invoice or any other communication from XXXX because I've never had a business arrangement with XXXX. I demanded in my XX/XX/XXXX letter, as I have in my XX/XX/XXXX letter, my XX/XX/XXXX letter, my XX/XX/XXXX letter and my XX/XX/XXXX XXXX letter ( each attached ) ( a ) evidence that I ever had a business arrangement with XXXX ; ( b ) proof that the modem on the bogus XXXX invoice was XXXX XXXX ; and ( c ) evidence I ever got the bogus XXXX invoice or any other communication from XXXX. No such evidence or proof has ever been furnished. I.C. System is engaged in consumer harassment without evidence or proof that I owe anything for XXXX or hold any modem that XXXX can prove it owns. I want this harassment stopped. I.C. Systems obviously undertook no diligence to verify I owed anything to or hold any property of XXXX. Yet I.C. System has persisted in harassing me for two years. If that is not consumer abuse, what is? I.C. System needs to be legally disciplined because, based on review of consumer complaints about I.C. System to the XXXX XXXX XXXX, harassing consumers to extract money they do not owe is an all too common and legally questionable tactic.

On XX/XX/2022 I received a notice to collect a debt from I.C. System Inc suggesting that I owed them a debt through their client, XXXX. The notice did not have a date to signify when the notice was written or sent and requested that I respond by XX/XX/2022 or the debt for the amount of {$1100.00} would be assumed valid. On XX/XX/2022 I received a " Settlement Offer '' dated XX/XX/2022 from I.C. System Inc in an attempt to settle the debt for 70 % of the balance due, which was bumped up to {$1200.00} with no explanation. They still had not verified the debt at this time. On XX/XX/2022, I sent I.C. System a notarized Request For Debt Validation letter outlining my rights as a consumer to have the debt properly validated pursuant to FCRA [ 15 USC 1692g ] and to help them out I listed all of the items they are required by law to send for debt validation. I sent this notice via certified mail ( tracking no. : XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX ) with a green return receipt. My letter was verified as delivered through tracking on XX/XX/2022 to the XXXX XXXX XXXX I.C. System provided in their notices ( XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX XXXX, XXXX XXXX. The return receipt never made it back to me. However they did receive my letter, as they responded to it within the given time frame. On XX/XX/2022 I received their only response to my Request For Debt Validation to an address that was not listed or authorized by me. The address they sent the response to is a relatives home, not my own. The response that was attached was a phone bill from XXXX for {$1200.00}. A bill is not proper validation of a debt according to XXXX XXXX XXXX and I.C. Systems has violated my rights pursuant to 12 CFR 1006.34 ( c ). They have failed to provide all of the required documentation as per my request under the new rule Regulation F and Validation of debt XXXX XXXX ( c ). During the time of the dispute I.C. System Inc took no action to delete the debt from my consumer report nor at the very least did they take action to update my consumer report to reflect that the account was in dispute.

On XX/XX/XXXX, I received a notification that a collection account had been added to my credit report. The company is IC Systems, and according to my credit report, the alleged company they are collecting on behalf of is XXXX. Over the past 12 months, this account has appeared on my credit report under several collection companies, including XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX and XXXX XXXX XXXX. It appears that these are some sort of junk debt buyers, and each time that I request debt validation they were unable to verify the account as belonging to me and subsequently deleted the accounts from my credit reports. I have contacted XXXX several times regarding this, but apparently this error has not been fixed. I filed a complaint against XXXX with my Attorney General and the FCC on XX/XX/XXXX regarding this matter. Furthermore, as far as this IC Systems account listed on my credit report, they have violated the Fair Credit Reporting Act by placing this erroneous, frivolous account on my credit report. I did not receive notice via mail regarding this account before it was placed on my credit report, nor did they provide validation of the account. So again, this is NOT a request for verification or proof of my mailing address, but a request for VALIDATION made pursuant to 15 USC 1692g Sec. 809 ( b ) of the FDCPA. I respectfully request that IC Systems offices provide me with competent evidence that I have any legal obligation to pay them. At this time I will also inform IC Systems that if their office continues to report invalidated information to any of the three major credit bureaus ( XXXX, XXXX, XXXX XXXX ), this action might constitute fraud under both federal and state laws. Due to this fact, if this negative mark continues to report on any of my credit reports by your company or the company you represent, I will not hesitate in bringing legal action against them and XXXX for the following : Violation of the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act Defamation of Character This is a request for validation made pursuant to the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act.

On XX/XX/2021 I ordered a phone from XXXX. I was told the phone would have either a XXXX or XXXX day ship, but it took longer than that. I reached out multiple times to XXXX and spoke to multiple representatives. In the beginning I was told my order did not ship out yet, then that it just shipped, and lastly that they couldnt find my order at all. After hearing all of this I was frustrated and decided do cancel the entire order. I called XXXX & was told that the order was already shipped and told to contact XXXX. When I called XXXX, they stated that they havent received my order at all. I then spoke to XXXX again and they gave me the run around. I was then told that the order was canceled and I had nothing to worry about. XXXX went by and I noticed XXXX XXXX tried to take different amounts of money from my account at different times. I visited my local XXXX and they called the collection agency and tried to get everything disputed. Before I left I was told by the XXXX experts that everything was handled and that the debt would be disputed and removed from my credit report. That never happened. I went back a little while later and did the whole process over with XXXX The agency told the experts that they did in fact dispute my claim but they put it back on my credit report due to phone usage & the phone account being used. Again I told both XXXX and the agency that I did not receive the phone, it was NEVER delivered to my home, due to me canceling it. I told them that when I spoke to the representatives I was told my order was successfully cancelled. I told them again and again that I do not have possession of the phone or any of XXXX equipment. Im not the individual that used nor opened the account etc. The XXXX representatives even stated to the agency that they have no active account in my name, and that its obvious Im not the one using the device or the account. The {$560.00} was then removed from my credit report for about a couple of months, & it is now back. I just want to get this handled. This has been going on for way too long.

This is the third time your fraudulent institution has damage my person and personal consumer profile with an alleged debt that you are collecting that has already been proven not in compliance and unable to be verified. This account has already been removed from my consumer credit report twice but here you are again fraudulently trying to masquerade as a creditor when in fact you are a debtor and a trespasser on an alleged original consumer contract that you were never a party too. I am well aware of the FACT that YOUR Firm has a MAXIMUM of 30 days to PRODUCE ALL of the mentioned information in detail on the attached document, PERFECTLY without a single mark or error on even ONE of the many a multitude of items and data entries of which you MUST demonstrate to ME physically with irrefutable documentary evidence of certified truthfulness and equally of adequately accurate, complete and timely reporting above and beyond compliance. If your firm CAN NOT produce ALL of the above-noted documentation in the allotted time frame, I will accept a written NOTIFICATION stipulating that your firm CAN NOT COMPLY with the FDCPA and formally withdrawing your claim to this alleged debt is demanded. If you choose to ignore this demand, I will pursue a direct course offered to me under the SETTLEMENT AGREEMENT entered into by the Credit Reporting Agencies with the ATTORNEY GENERAL OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX and 37 other states that specifically EMPOWERS a working group to remediate and hold accountable and sanction data furnishers who fail to meet the requirements of the FDCPA and CFPBs compliance guidance for Professional Debt Collection Practices. If your firm chooses not to respond to this VALIDATION demand and its conditions I will NOT hesitate to FILE suit and SEEK my own payday against your firm for malicious collection activities-see Fields v. Wilber Law Firm, Donald L. Wilber and Kenneth Wilber, USCA-02-C-0072, 7th Circuit Court, Sept. 2004. You have 30 days from the postmark date of this validation demand to answer.

XX/XX/XXXX, is the relevant date when this matter began when I first called to terminate my service. See the chronology attached below. XXXX XXXX XXXX erroneously continued to charge my account beyond the date service was to be terminated as well as assessing charges for equipment, which was all returned via UPS as instructed. I have spoken to their customer service several time and have ample notes and documentation of those calls extending over they past year and a half. I have also responded to I.C. System on several occasions disputing this balance of {$150.00}. I wrote to both XXXX ( successor to XXXX XXXX ) and I. C. System with full documentation and chronology of this debacle and demanding that this entry to my credit reports be removed. That communication was sent Certified Mail on XX/XX/XXXX. I have attached a copy of that correspondence below. XX/XX/XXXX I received a notice that I.C. System had removed the credit reporting entry, stating that they had, " been unable to verify the information and therefore had requested that any information provided to the credit reporting agencies regarding this account be deleted or removed from their records. '' That response further stated that " the debt will not be re-reported to the credit reporting agencies by I.C. System, Inc. '' XX/XX/XXXX I received a notice from I.C. System stating that " XXXX provided the attached information, verifying your responsibility for payment. '' The attachment was a copy of two statement pages from XX/XX/XXXX. However, if you review the attachment, there is no reference to the amount they claim of {$150.00}. This is clearly a cursory gesture by XXXX to justify this error so that I.C. System to continue their illegal collection attempts. Surely, I.C. Systems can not be exonerated from actually reviewing the documents to see that they actually do " prove '' the debt. Which this certainly does not. The consumer and debt collection statutes clearly charge such companies to exercise due diligence in validating the amounts they are attempting to pursue.

1 Collection XXXX ( Original Creditor : XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX ) XXXX Derogatory XX/XX/XXXX {$270.00} Reported Illegally on my consumer report this above collection item On XX/XX/XXXX I not only contacted the consumer reporting agencies regarding this illegal item, which would constitute as identity theft as I never did any business whatsoever with XXXX and wrote to XXXX as well requesting they provide all documentation regarding our contracting them, billing and payment history, contract to do business with them, life of the account. They did not respond in any way, what they have done is now sell or transfer this debt to I.C. SYSTEM, INC Address XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, MN XXXX Account numberXXXX Date opened XX/XX/XXXX Account type Collection Status Collection account. {$270.00} past due as of XXXX XXXX. Status updated XX/XX/XXXX. This is how they ruin and abuse consumer 's creditability and consumer profile. I never did any business with IC Systems, nor have I received any information from them. How they are allowed to illegally furnish information to my consumer profile is not only injurious to me but alarming. Aside from the personal injury to me, these persons ( XXXX and XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX ) in collaboration with consumer agencies are breaking the law. In fcra 15 USC 1681 Congress specifically stated what can be reported to a consumer 's report and equally important what MUST BE EXCLUDED. Any transactions and experiences are to be excluded from a consumer 's ( my ) profile. In addition, in my communication with XXXX I exercised my right given to me by congress to request XXXX to cease and desist from this illegal activity they in turn chose to collude with IC SYSTEM Inc to further injure my consumer profile. I have never done any business with XXXX not IC SYSTEM INC. I have never opted in to their reporting to the consumer agencies on my behalf. I am pleading to CFPB and FTC to get these persons and agencies to provide my OPT IN and life of the transaction proof as well as any contract of me agreeing to do business with them.

I was a XXXXXXXX XXXX customer up until XX/XX/2023 when I moved and could not transfer the service. Although I was told by XXXX when I got a new plan that I would not be locked in for 2 years, when I called to terminate the service, XXXX claimed that I had to pay an early termination fee. I already paid the bill [ {$130.00} ] for XXXX so XXXX was to reimburse me for what I paid and send me a final bill. On XX/XX/2023, XXXX took money out of my bank account for XX/XX/2023, billing me for services that had been canceled. I called to have them reverse the charge and to ask again for a final bill. I did not receive a final bill in XXXX or XX/XX/2023, despite providing a forwarding address twice in XXXX and XXXX. I was unaware that once you terminate your services with XXXX XXXX, you can no longer access your online account ; so although I tried to log in and see what the final charges were, I was unable to. I called XXXX in XX/XX/2023 to ask why I could not log into the online account and was then informed that once you terminate services, you can no longer access the online account. I was advised to wait for the final bill which would provide me with the ability to pay the outstanding charges. On XX/XX/2023, XXXX reported the account as delinquent and sent to collections, tanking my credit score by XXXX points. On XX/XX/2023 when I was notified about this, I called XXXX to ask them why they reported the account as delinquent when I never received a bill and was advised to wait to receive the bill. XXXX stated that they would send the final bill out as soon as possible but that the damage done to my credit already was " not their problem ''. I received the final bill a week later [ it was mailed out on XX/XX/2023 ] and promptly paid the balance. I disputed the collections charge to my account and am still trying to get it removed. This has caused major damage to my personal credit as well as my business credit, which pulls from consumer credit reports. My business credit has now been slashed by XXXX as a result of this.

I recently contacted the original company I have a delinquent balance of {$580.00} for an utility bill. XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX company ) in good faith I want to pay my balance. I choose to pay them directly rather than the collection agency that shows up on my credit report. IC systems. I have made three payments thus far. Once I started making payments to XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX IC systems is maliciously flagging my credit report every few days within 30 days! This is harassment I owe IC systems nothing and they have no right to put such derogatory marks on my report in attempts to lowering my score and tarnish my record. I have screenshots, pictures of how many times and how often they are doing this. This is violating my consumer right to fair reporting and also against the law. I am XXXX years old and I am struggling to rebuild my credit. I have been doing everything right and when I start making payments to the original company IC systems starts viciously attracting my credit report. IC systems dates of bogus inaccurate illegal reporting .... XXXX XXXX XX/XX/XXXX, XXXX XX/XX/XXXX, XXXX XX/XX/XXXX, XXXX XX/XX/XXXX, XXXX XX/XX/XXXX, XXXX I will attach photos of each date. And proof of 2 of three payments I have made directly to XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX. This is clearly an attack from IC systems and they must be held accountable for their actions. Because I choose to pay the company directly they choose to retaliate and attack me in such an unprofessional way. They no longer have rights to my account as I am currently in contact with XXXX and actively paying. They have absolutely no right to attack my livelihood in such irresponsible violating ways. And they can not deny their actions with the pictures Ill include with this complaint. This debt is old not new. All the damage IC systems inflicted on my report in 30 short days is unlawful. And Experian should NEVER allow such crime. XXXX has a LOT of violating inaccurate reporting. Purposely holding credit scores back with bogus reporting is a violation!

On XX/XX/XXXX my mother and I decided we would merge our cell phone accounts together. We called in and did this. We got everything changed and working and I asked the guy any outstanding bills for the number ending in XXXX after this he advised no. A little while goes by and I receive a bill in the mail for {$140.00}. I call XXXX and spoke to a representative and advised we were told no balance for me and she stated that she didn't see any notes on my account but because of the inconvenience she would cut the bill in half and I would then owe {$73.00} and to give it 24 to 48 hrs to show on the account and call back. So I called back 4 days later really upset cause not only did I receive another bill in the mail but this time it was 219.75 so instead of taking the {$73.00} off they added it sent it to collections and reported this information to all 3 credit bureaus. After repeated calls to XXXX I decided I was getting no where so I went and called the Collection agency and paid a settlement in the amount of {$160.00} to get rid of this and be done with it since nobody will help me and take responsibility so called the collection company to ask why this was still an open balance on my credit report XX/XX/XXXX and spoke to XXXX and she stated they didn't receive my payment but sent me a payment receipt XXXX bal. I paid more then what I was supposed to and now this. I am trying to purchase a house and this being reported to all 3 credit bureaus after stating it would not be is very upsetting. Even after all this I still have been trying to call XXXX and the collection companies all to get nowhere and completely disrespected and no help to resolve what so ever. I have never been talked to or treated in such a manor it was ridiculous. Nobody wanted to hear or acknowledge anything I tried to say. Like I was just lying trying to get out of a bill I was very offended. I still have XXXX for my cell phone and XXXX for cable and internet and I am seriously considering breaking my contract and moving elsewhere very disappointed.

I had my vehicle stolen in XX/XX/XXXX that was recovered by the XXXX XXXX Police department approximately 10 days later. My vehicle had been towed to the XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX in XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX XXXX, CA XXXX XXXX XXXX. When I went to the XXXX XXXX XXXX yard to recover my vehicle I was devastated to see that the tires were missing, the seats were gone, the glove box and interior was stripped and all my personal belongings in the car were gone. I advised the rep working for the tow yard that I had no interest in the vehicle at this point as the accumulated tow fees exceeded the value of the vehicle at this point in time and was releasing myself of any and all liability on the vehicle and that the paperwork on vehicle was in the vehicle which they would not allow me to retrieve. The rep stated that was fine if that's what I decided to do. The only notification I ever received from the XXXX XXXX XXXX company was the notice of auction. A few months later I received a collection notice from IC Systems XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, MN XXXX XXXX XXXX dated XX/XX/XXXX indicating that they were attempting to collect a debt for XXXX XXXX XXXX company in the amount of {$2700.00}. I spoke to XXXX employee ID XXXX at IC Systems on XX/XX/XXXX and filed a dispute since I had never received any type of billing notice from XXXX XXXX XXXX. I was advised that a billing statement would be requested and sent out to me which to this date I have never received. I spoke to Mr. XXXX on XX/XX/XXXX and was advised that he would escalate the request to his Manager to have a billing statement sent out to me which I have not received. I spoke to XXXX at XXXX XXXX XXXX on XX/XX/XXXX whom was very rude she indicated that the vehicle sold at auction and I am responsible for the towing and storage fees on this vehicle. I wanted to know why wasn't a bill ever sent out to me and she stated that one was sent but would not verify the address or date it was sent. If any additional information is needed please let me know. Thank you

There was an inquiry that came up on my XXXX credit report describing an XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX account that XXXX different collection agencies have tried to collect on. I have disputed this claim on XXXX and XXXX and am currently working on filing a dispute with XXXX XXXX. The claim was successfully disputed on XXXX, but not on XXXX or XXXX XXXX. I have called both collection agencies ( XXXX and I.C. System Inc ) several times and sent in a fraud packet that was apparently never received. The account that is in question was opened for an XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX account. I have never opened an XXXX XXXX XXXX account and am still in fact on my parent 's mobile plan through a family plan account. The collectors ' agencies continue to say that this is my account because it was opened with my name and social security number, but the account has a different email address which is also not mine. This person has an email address : XXXX, or something to that effect, and a XXXX XXXX XXXX in XXXX XXXX Ohio. They have continued to use this email and address to open fraudulent accounts under my name and social in the past and continue to do so now. I recently opened a high yield savings account through XXXX XXXX and this person change the username and password to the account within a week of my opening it. I then had to get XXXX XXXX XXXX to cancel the account and reopen a new account with my correct information and delete the XXXX email that was connected to this account without my authorization. I could see through my XXXX XXXX account settings that this person added their email address to my account and had their phone attached to my account as well, which was some type of XXXX phone. This email address has also shown up in my personal XXXX XXXX XXXX bank account along with the XXXX XXXX address. I have since hardened my online account by subscribing to XXXX XXXX, XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, and XXXX XXXX. Somehow this person is still able to access my accounts and open accounts using my name and social security number.

I contested an account that is in collection with XXXX XXXX XXXX / XXXX XXXX. This account had been removed from my credit history a few years ago because I returned all equipment requested by XXXX XXXX XXXX / XXXX XXXX when I cancelled my service with them. Several months after returning the equipment, my account was placed in collection the first time. This was probably in XXXX. I contested the error as soon as I discovered it and the erroneous information was removed from my account. I recently discovered that this information appeared on my credit report again in XX/XX/XXXX and contested it again with XXXX. Since it had been removed once before, I assumed it would be a simple process to have it removed again. This time XXXX chose to keep the erroneous information on my credit report because the collection agency, IC Systems, claimed the account was " IN COLLECTION ''. No other documents or information was provided to me from XXXX 's investigation. Neither XXXX XXXX XXXX / XXXX XXXX nor IC Systems ever produced any documents or records showing that I failed to return the equipment in question. There are no notices from XXXX XXXX XXXX or bills showing that still owe them any money for any equipment. There are no records of emails or phone calls showing any attempt by XXXX XXXX XXXX / XXXX XXXX to notify me that they believed I was still in possession of any equipment. I don't know what XXXX XXXX XXXX did with the XXXX XXXX equipment once I returned it via XXXX, but the equipment was clearly in their possession. I should not be getting random collection notices and it should not be impacting my credit rating. XXXX failed to conduct any meaningful investigation into the factual basis for the claims made by IC Systems. No supporting documentation was apparently provided. Consequently, there is no factual or legal basis for XXXX to continue to report this erroneous information. This is especially true in light of the fact that the false information had been previously removed from my credit report.

Debt placed on my credit report but is not mine. Have never received any communication about debt and when I called collection company they could not locate information and stated they could not help me and hung up. Filed dispute with XXXX and there findings say it is viable so I asked how could they call it viable when I could not get any info about the debt. This item had been placed on my credit before by another collection company and later removed when I notified them it was not my debt. The company that placed the account for collection is XXXX XXXX, XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, MN XXXX. They were trying to collect for an address in XXXX IA and had a collection company called XXXX XXXX who also placed it on my credit report. I ultimately disputed the item since it did not belong to me. I have resided at the same address in IL for the past 17 years and never lived in IA. I sent a fraud report to XXXX and they removed the item from my report and informed XXXX XXXX. I thought this was the end of the issue until it showed up on my report placed by I.C. System Inc XXXX who I contacted and would not help me because I do not live in XXXX IL and they hung up on me. I have disputed this item twice thru XXXXand there reply is it is a viable debt. I cant understand this decision since I can't get info from the collection company what type of info did they get. Other than this showing up on my credit report and dropping my rating by 70 pts and causing my Credit Card Companys to drop my credit line and making it impossible to get loans I have not received any bills or notices of collection from XXXX or IC Systems. I had my wallet stolen several years back and have a police report to verify the instance. All my IDs were in it along with my SS card. XXXX has been of no help and they do not provide a thorough investigation and XXXX and IC systems refuse to listen or provide info but were quick to place on my credit report. If XXXX would require proper IDs when establishing services this situation would not occur.

My name is XXXX XXXX, a federally protected consumer, and I am making this complaint against I.C. SYSTEM, INC for a number of federal violations. I have NEVER given I.C. SYSTEM, INC any kind of permission to use any of my identifying information to commit mail fraud by contacting me about this alleged debt they claim I owe. I am fully aware that in accordance with Article 9, the assignment of a defaulted note is completely illegal. Both the assignee and the assigned are both liable for violations under 15 U.S. Code 1692e ( 12 ). Ive never received any documentation requesting validation from I.C. SYSTEM, INC before they committed multiple violations under the FCRA and the FDCPA by furnishing this alleged debt to my consumer report including but not limited to 15 U.S. Code 1692d ( 4 ) which the FTC defines as debt parking. If I.C. SYSTEM, INC can not provide me with proof such as a tracking number that they attempted to lawfully validate this alleged debt with me ( the consumer ) prior to furnishing it on my consumer report, this has been a fraudulently furnished account with forethought and malice as an attempt to bring harm to me and my financial reputation. I am legally refusing to pay this debt pursuant to 1692c ( c ). I am demanding a cease and desist of all illegal activity, any communication and collection activity, of this and any alleged debts until I.C. SYSTEM, INC can provide me with sufficient documentary evidence that I have any legal obligation to pay them such as a trilateral contract. If this documentary evidence can not be produced and I.C. SYSTEM, INC continues its collection efforts, I will file for litigation for actual damages caused and I.C. SYSTEM, INC will be held criminally liable for aggravated identity theft pursuant to 18 USC 1028A, extortion, theft by deception, securities fraud, and mail fraud. Upon the receipt of the documents herein and of this notice, you are hereby notified Pursuant UCC 1-202f. Your prompt attention and response are both requested and required.

Dear XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, I am writing to demand an immediate cease and desist of all collection activities related to the alleged debt associated with account number XXXX & XXXX. I also request that you remove this fraudulent account from my credit report within four ( 4 ) days of receiving this letter. Failure to comply will result in litigation for violations under 15 U.S. Code 1692e ( 12 ). I have not validated this alleged debt, and my failure to dispute its validity does not imply admission of liability. I have not received any documentary evidence, such as a trilateral contract, establishing your right to collect on this debt. Your furnishing of this alleged debt to my consumer report without prior validation violates the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) and the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act ( FDCPA ). This constitutes fraud, including the violation of 15 U.S. Code 1692d ( 4 ) ( debt parking ). If you can not provide proof of a lawful validation attempt before furnishing this debt on my report, it is evident that this account has been fraudulently furnished to harm my financial reputation. I hereby refuse to pay this debt under 15 U.S. Code 1692c ( c ). I demand an immediate cease and desist of all illegal activities, including communication and collection efforts, until you can provide sufficient documentary evidence establishing my legal obligation to pay. Failure to comply will result in litigation for actual damages caused, and you may be held criminally liable for aggravated identity theft, extortion, theft by deception, securities fraud, and mail fraud. Upon receipt of this letter and accompanying documents, you are hereby notified pursuant to UCC 1-202f. I expect your prompt attention and response to this matter. Please provide a written response within four ( 4 ) days, confirming the cessation of all collection activities and removal of this fraudulent account from my credit report. Thank you for your immediate attention to this matter. Sincerely, XXXX XXXX

Recently while conducting a monitor of my credit report I discovered that items were furnished that have unverified information. I believe under the Fair Debt Collections Practices Act, I have the right to request that you allow me to validate the alleged debt. I am aware there is a debt from but I am unaware of the amount due and your bill does not include a breakdown of any fees. Additionally, I am allowed under the XXXX law [ HEALTH INSURANCE PORTABILITY AND ACCOUNTABILITY ACT OF 1996 XXXX, to protect my privacy and medical records from any third parties. I do not recall giving permission to release my medical information to a third-party. I am aware that HIPPAA does allow for limited information about me but anything more is to only be revealed with the patients authorization, therefore my request is two-fold and as follows, Validation of Debt, and XXXX authorization. 1. Please provide breakdown of fees including any collection costs and medical charges 2. Provide a copy of my signature with the provider of service to release my medical information to you. 3. Cease any credit bureau reporting until debt has been validated by me. 4. Please send this information to my address listed above and accept this formal complaint as my formal debt validation request, which I am allowed under the FDCPA. Please note that falsification of the information you received from any medical provider can be perceived as a XXXX compliance violation as well as a violation of the FDCPA because you will be deceiving me after my written request of debt validation. I request full documentation of what you received from the provider of service in connection with this alleged debt. Additionally, any reporting of this debt to the credit bureaus prior to allowing me to validate it may be a violation of the Fair Credit Reporting Act, which can allow me to seek damages from a collection agency. XXXX. ACCT NO. XXXX - BALANCE {$760.00} XXXX. ACCT NO. XXXX - BALANCE {$780.00} XXXX. ACCT NO. 898205 - BALANCE {$1000.00}

DEFINITION of Zombie Debt : I had internet service with XXXX and moved, I brought my equipment and closed the account ( XX/XX/XXXX ) and opened new account ( XX/XX/XXXX ) with XXXX at the new address, which I kept for 13 months ( XX/XX/XXXX ). The manager ensured that the account was Closed, and I never received any information that the old account was not properly closed in the XXXX system. The service at New Address was never interrupted for any reason ( such as Non-Payment ). I ended that contract ( with XXXX ) after 13 months and moved to another service ( XXXX XXXX XXXX ). In XX/XX/XXXX I received a letter from XXXX XXXX that I owed {$210.00} and it was reported to all ( 3 ) Credit Agencies. I hired a Lawyer and sent a letter Disputing the Validity of this Debt. It was Removed from ( 3 ) Credit Agencies shortly thereafter. In XX/XX/XXXX I received a letter from XXXX XXXX XXXX that I owed {$210.00} and it was reported to all ( 3 ) Credit Agencies. I again hired a Lawyer and sent a letter Disputing the Validity of this Debt. It was Removed from ( 3 ) Credit Agencies shortly thereafter. In XX/XX/XXXX In XX/XX/XXXX I received a letter from I.C. System that I owed {$210.00} and it was reported to all ( 3 ) Credit Agencies. I was able to Dispute at ( 2 ) Credit Agencies, but ( 1 ) Credit Agency has marked the erroneous debt a Valid. I have AGAIN hired a Lawyer to Dispute the Validity of this erroneous debt. My Credit Score has taken an 86 Point Drop ( from high 700 's to high 600 's ). I was in process of making a major purchase, which I have now had to put on hold to correct these errors. The fact that Debt Collectors ( such as I.C. Systems ) will purchase bundled debt obligations without the previous Debt Collectors ( XXXX XXXX and XXXX XXXX XXXX ) scrubbing erroneous customer information is the Definition of Zombie Debt, it just won't go away. My attorney actually recommended that I pay a debt that I don't owe, but agreed that it might not be removed from my Credit Report.

I was an account holder with XXXX. My account # was XXXX. XXXX was notified that my Landlord revoked permission to have the dish on my roof. The rep was to cancel my account. I was advised I would NOT be charged a cancellation fee because it was my landlord who was revoking the permissions. A box was sent to me and the receiver was promptly returned. XXXX has acknowledged receipt XXXX XXXX, 2017. A few weeks later I received a bill for early termination and service use. I immediately contacted XXXX and the rep I spoke with acknowledged my service should have been disconnected. She acknowledged I was being billed incorrectly for the termination fee. She also acknowledged I was being billed for two months of service after I returned the receiver. She advised me the issue would be resolved and I would receive no further bills. NOW I am getting a collection letter from IC Systems. They are advising my account is in collections. I advised I was disputing the debt. The collector stated I needed to contact XXXX directly. I spoke with XXXX from XXXX on Friday, XXXX XXXX, 2017. She was rude and disrespectful. She intentionally hung up on me and placed me back in the queue. The next representative barely spoke English and disconnected my call as well. I called back a 3rd time and XXXX was my XXXX rep this time. She advised me XXXX did n't have access to my notes since the account was in collections. She advised I write to the corporate office. I spoke with XXXX XXXX at the collection agency. I was advised he was a manager. He offered to Settle the account. I advised him I am disputing this bill as false. I made him aware of my intentions to file a complaint. I have sent this complaint in writing to IC Systems as well as to the corporate office of XXXX in XXXX XXXX, CO. I am desperate to have this corrected. I do not want this falsely reporting on my credit bureau report. This debt is an error. If someone would take the time to read the notes on my file they would see the error by XXXX.

This collection company I C System, located at XXXX XXXX XXXX in XXXX XXXX, MN XXXX, was sent two debt validation letters on XX/XX/2019. One of the letters was priority and needed a signature. The other letter was certified with tracking. The reason why I sent a debt validation letter is because this collection company continued to report information on my credit report and I never received a letter from the company. I'm not sure where the debt originated from, but to continuously report a debt owed without proof that I am the person who isresponsible is against the law. I'm not sure who this debt was intended for, but I am not the correct person. I sent the letter as a way to get the background information for this debt and to let the company know that until they provide me with the details of this debt showing I am responsible, they need to stop reporting this false inaccurte information. On XX/XX/2019 I C system, received both letters. The letter that required a signature was received by someone named, XXXX XXXX. I also show the certified letter was delivered on XX/XX/2019 at XXXX. On XX/XX/2019 I viewed my credit report and noticed that IC systems continued to report the debt to the credit bureaus, without providing me with the proper documentation. The demand letter also advised IC systems, that they had 30 days from the date on he letter, however i allowed 30 days from the date received for their response, along with all the requested information. The letter also advised that during this period all collection activity was to cease and desist and the company ignored this right. Under the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act, I have a right to request for valdiation of a debt, that is stated I owe. This is pursuant to 15 USC 1692g Sec 809 ( b ) by the FDCPA. The letter sent also stated that if IC systems continued to report the fraudulent information and invalidated information I would pursue legal action, which I am prepared to do as IC Systems is in violation of the FDCPA.

On XX/XX/XXXX I was alerted to go on line by my refinance lender to see what was going on. I did, and discovered that my credit score dropped 144 points. In a PANIC, I discovered that I was put into collections by I.C. System for an unpaid medical bill with XXXX XXXX/XXXX. I called XXXX to see why they put me in collections, and they said that they don't bother looking in their portal system, so they didn't see my inquiry regarding the {$410.00} charge as incorrect. I was told by the office manager that they send out 3 notices then put it in collections. A review of my credit information shows that IC System started putting me in collections on XX/XX/XXXX. I NEVER RECEIVED ANY COMMUNICATION FROM IC SYSTEM for this collection. NOT ONE. As soon as I saw that my credit score dropped 144 points, I IMMEDIATELY contacted IC System and paid the debt. I had no choice. I was trying to refinance my home, and I couldn't risk being denied. This is fraud, and I'm charging XXXX in it. IC System sent me two notices AFTER I paid, but none while they put me in collections on XXXX, again on XXXX, and again on XX/XX/XXXX. On XX/XX/XXXX, my score dropped 144 points. Not only did XXXX raise me back to XXXX, but mysteriously removed that I ever had a debt collection notice! I believe that XXXX and IC System and XXXX are working together to basically hold a financial gun to peoples heads to FORCE them to pay charges without question. I disputed the charge to XXXX after their XX/XX/XXXX bill. I went through their system portal. Since I never heard from them, I thought they wrote off the claim. I found out later that they don't bother reading the portal claims. They collect payment by submitting you to IC System. I get notified by the US Postal Service of incoming mail. I have all the notices from USPS of the 2 receipts from IC System AFTER I paid, showing a payment receipt and a payment agreement. The USPS has no notices to me from IC System prior to the payment receipt and payment agreement.

The orginal creditor was XXXX XXXX XXXX and because my bill was never the same amount but usage was and I was being overcharged for items I hadn't used I switched my cellphone carrier. I had a bundle also with internet. After getting nowhere with my billing I contacted the FCC who was able to get them to reduce my bill and unlock my equipment. I then began paying my balance owed. I then received a collection notice months later for the initial amount of XXXX ( XX/XX/XXXX ) but I had gotten it down to XXXX ( XX/XX/XXXX ) at that time. I was confused about who to pay at that point, I called and spoke with various people who either claimed not to be able to pull the account information to referring to the person who handled the FCC dispute. She advised she was unable to help because it was now a collections matter. XXXX customer service offered no solutions either but to pay them. The first collection agency XXXX XXXX was notified in writing requesting them to be aware that the balance was incorrect and I was interested in resolving the issue. They never called nor wrote me in the regard they just changed the balance owed to {$250.00}. As of XX/XX/XXXX XXXX XXXX removed the item. It is now currently showing as an item under IC System, however, they have never called nor written me in the regard of resolving the issue. Further, I have no information on this company and nothing is showing on my report by way of an address or number to contact them. I also dont feel safe paying them without written correspondence nor a way of knowing that this will close and resolve the matter. I'm also not confident that if I pay them it will result in the matter being closed nor do I know if the item will be passed on to another company!! Its really awful how these companies just sell your information, never try to resolve the issue even when you reach out to them.The consumers are in a bad position because it takes so much to rectify and on multiple accounts. I appreciate your services!

In XXXX XXXX Technician replaced equipment at my home and left the old equipment there, the technician stated Fed X would deliver a paid shipping box I could put it in and send to the XXXX office. No box showed up XXXX auto charged my credit card {$460.00}. When I inquired why I had been billed for the equipment I was told I had to physically bring it to the office, I would receive a receipt and be refunded the {$460.00}. I returned the equipment and was given a receipt but was not refunded the money, I attempted several times to attain the refund over 30 day period without luck, in the end I disputed the charge through my credit card company. They in turn worked with XXXX and ended up reversing the charges, crediting my credit card the {$460.00}. Shortly afterwards I got a call from a collection agency trying to collect the debt. Then I spent the next 2 years dealing with them, they reported the debt to all three credit reporting agencies, then I disputed, the credit agency verified, and it was removed from my credit file. Then another collection agency called to collect the same debt, I explained and they still attempted to collect, sent them a letter requesting they validate the debt, never heard back from them. Now, XXXX, another collection agency, IC sytem is trying to collect, I have spoke to them on the phone and sent letters requesting they validate the debt and provide me the information. They are saying they have no record of my letters and are basically giving me the run around. I told the person on the phone they had bought a bad debt that did n't exist, she told me IC Sytem does not buy debts to collect on, that they only work for the original debtor. I told them I did not believe that because I have had and presently do have XXXX service, have never even been late on a payment, account in good standing. I think if there was a problem I would have heard from XXXX, seen it on my monthly statement, and if not paid my service would have been disconnected.

This company is reporting NEGATIVE and INVALID information on my credit report and is severely affecting my credit score. The account information that this company is providing can not be proven because they do not have the original signed document saying that I owe them a debt which is A direct violation of my CIVIL RIGHTS and MY HIPPA RIGHTS according to the FCRA section 609. This company must remove their account from my credit reports immediately and permanently. A DELETION OF THIS ACCOUNT FROM MY CREDIT REPORT IS A FAIR RESOLUTION. Please be advised I have requested validation { not verification } of an item reported to you by the above original creditor/collection agency. I have received a response that does not indicate or prove : 1. I had this service. 2. What services I am being charged for. 3. What the cost of each service I am being charged for. A response with a bill is NOT evidence of proof that the debt is mine. Anyone can open an account under my name for which a bill is produced, but that doesn't mean it was actually me or that the debt is actually mine. I need real evidence. This evidence consists of a contract from the original creditor or some agreement bearing MY written signature agreeing to pay the debt. In the absence of this evidence I ask you to please remove this account from my credit report. Furthermore, this company DID NOT AND CAN NOT provide me a HIPAA release that releases my medical information to them, therefore by providing such information they are in VIOLATION of my HIPAA rights. I will proceed with legal action as prescribed by law against the above-named original creditor/collection agency. Should this item not be deleted within the required time allowed by law I will seek every legal remedy available to me and file suit against the credit bureau responsible for reporting this violation. I urge you to take this extremely seriously as I have documented my case without error. I encourage a response from you expeditiously.

I received a phone call XX/XX/XXXX at XXXX ET from an agent named XXXX XXXX from IC System. I informed her that the phone call was in violation of the FDCPA because I sent a letter disputing the validity of the debt to IC System over a month ago and had not been mailed verification of the debt as required before continuing an attempt to collect the debt. I asked to speak to her supervisor. Even after that information was provided to her, she asked if I am able to clear up this debt today. I reiterated that she should not be attempting to collect on this debt, and asked again for a supervisor. She transferred me to XXXX XXXX, who confirmed that IC System had received my dispute letter prior to the this call. I asked her how we proceed from here, because my rights were clearly violated, and she said she would transfer me to her manager. She transferred me to XXXX XXXX in the Consumer Affairs department. XXXX again confirmed on a recorded call that they had received my dispute letter prior to calling me, and told me I could email my complaint to their consumer affairs department, XXXX. I did so that day, and have followed up twice in the two weeks since, and have not received a reply. I also received a settlement offer letter dated XX/XX/XXXX. It is my belief that this letter was sent as a direct response to IC System 's receipt of my dispute letter, since IC System has only been attempting to collect on this debt for a very short period of time and was offering a 70 % settlement after a single collection letter. My wife happened to be home at the time I was talking to XXXX, overheard the conversation, and now thinks I'm in debt and hiding it from her. I now have to explain why I'm getting collection calls, why this debt exists, and reassure her that this is an anomaly. I haven't missed a payment on anything in decades. I simply do not owe this debt, the full amount of the debt for leased XXXX phones has been paid directly to XXXX when I canceled my service.

Also note that they attached a payment stub for me to pay this bill even though they have full knowledge of the appeal. I consider this letter a threat. This company is deliberately disregarding my appeal information which was sent to them. They are threatening me with credit bureau even though at this point it is unresolved by XXXX as to whether I owe this bill.

I wanted to inquire about this debt. I dont understand why it is on my credit report since I have not received anything in the mail prior to seeing this debt from IC System on my Credit Report. It is to my understanding that IC system is required to send written notice prior to inserting themselves on my my Credit Report and wait 30 days from that point before they put it on my Credit Report. Furthermore it appears that theyre attempting to collect on a XXXX XXXX XXXX related debt and I have also never had any XXXX XXXX XXXX related products. If IC systems feels this debt is valid please provide me with the original terms and conditions that state that IC system is allowed to benefit in the form of interest and fees. Simply providing me with monthly statements is not going to be sufficient please note I am asking for validation and verification of the original terms and conditions related to the debt and not just monthly statements. As a result of this alleged debt I was also turned down for a recent line of credit with XXXX XXXX XXXX for {$30000.00} and they specifically referenced the debt being the sole cause. I needed this line of credit for a remodel for my business.. Please do not contact me by telephone please communicate in writing only via USPS mail. In the event that you or anyone reading this complaint do call me I am revoking permission to record my voice or use automated pre-recorded dialing systems. Any calls or communication in connection with this debt from IC System or XXXX I do consider to be an attempt to collect on a debt so please govern yourself accordingly. Debt collection matters and subject to the fair debt collection practices act and The California Rosenthal act. I am also now represented by an attorney and want IC System or XXXX to communicate with XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX. XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX CA XXXX T : ( XXXX ) XXXX - XXXX F : ( XXXX ) XXXX - XXXX XXXX XXXX

Collection agency IC System of XXXX XXXX, MN claims in XX/XX/2019 that I owe {$370.00} which they say is overdue for cable service provided by their client XXXXXXXX The account, # XXXX, is for a location in XXXX, NY. I explained to IC System that this account can not be mine, since I live in California, have never been in XXXX, NY and have never had or authorized cable service or any other service in XXXX, NY. I asked IC System if they had a social security number or drivers license number associated with the account and they did not have that information. They stated that they had my name, XXXX XXXX, to which I responded that this is not an uncommon name. I told them this was clearly a case of mistaken identity ; however they would not listen. The larger problem is that IC System is the second collection agency to harass me about this same XXXX account. In XX/XX/2019, XXXX XXXX XXXX of XXXX, TX sent me a collection notice for the same amount and the same cable account number. I called both XXXX XXXX XXXX and XXXX at that time. Neither would cancel their claim. Instead they demanded that I either pay the amount or spend hours of my time in completing their data package, including trips to our police station, while offering me no evidence of why they were billing me other than that they had my name. The fact that XXXX recognized that I have long had a valid cable account with them at our home in California which is fully paid up and has had no late payments ever, did not deter them. XXXX XXXX XXXX then filed notices with the three major credit reporting agencies. I sought the advice of our ID Theft insurance company who helped us get this reversed and ultimately get my credit rating restored. I demand that XXXX and IC System stop harassing me for a case that had been previously resolved in my favor, that they reverse any credit ratings filed against me, and that XXXX and their collection agencies not harass me in the future for debts that are not mine.

To whom it may concern, We have been in an on going dispute with XXXX since XX/XX/XXXX which has resulted in a wrongful collection debt that has affected my fathers XXXX Security Clearance. XXXX has wrongfully sent our account into default despite several of my personal attempts to clear the account based on my cancellation of services request back in XX/XX/XXXX which I personally requested on several more attempts to listen to the call recordings of every person I 've spoken to within the company in attempt to prove my request of cancellation ( " this call may be recorded for monitoring purposes '' ). XXXX has continued to charge us for services well into the XX/XX/XXXX year for services in which we cancelled and have severely failed to provide reasonable definition as to why we were being charged. I have spoken to several XXXX members of " customer service, accounts receivable and collections '' and have received different excuses from each representative. Needless to say, two understood excuses I have received : The first - our account was never cancelled, the second - our account was cancelled but showed a debt for un-returned equipment. I have attached a notice from XXXX showing the start of service and also receipts for " un-returned '' equipment from the UPS Store. I 've asked on numerous occasions to speak to a manager in attempts to resolve the issue and was never able to reach a single one. Each representative " assured '' they showed no reason for debt and each " assured '' they submitted for a reverse of charges. That never happened and I was never contacted to provide proof. We believe we were never given a fair attempt to resolve this before being sent to collections and again, despite SEVERAL attempts. I have the names of XXXX representatives for most attempts to clarify the reason for debt and in attempt to provide proof of my rightful recordings of saying such cancellation was never given. POOR, POOR, Customer Service on XXXX.

The original issue was with XXXX We moved and asked for a simple movers package. First the technician went to the old address. Then once he arrived at our correct new address, I elected to go wireless for a one time fee. The agreed upon monthly amount was for about {$120.00}. The first bill after a month or so was for about {$1200.00}. Naturally I called and argued with the representative until it was agreed on that if I pay my $ 125 monthly amount the billing issue would be fixed. The next billing cycle landed me a bill of about {$600.00}! I had to call and complain again until it was agreed upon that if I paid the {$120.00} my service would not be disconnected. The Next billing cycle had arrived along with a bill for around {$300.00}!!! I called AGAIN to complain about their service and the billing debacle, but this time I told the representative to just forget it and to cancel the contract. At this time I also drafted a letter and sent it stating that I wanted to cancel due to a breach of contract on their part by not charging the {$120.00} as agreed upon. The letter was sent to them by certified mail with a return receipt, but I might not be able to find the receipt after all of this time. I also told them that I don't work for them and if they want their equipment, they need to send a technician to pick it up. I never heard anything else so I thought it was over. I did threaten to file a fraud complaint but never did since I thought it was resolved. Then a collection agency started trying to collect on an account that I had cancelled. I keep receiving letters on a regular basis from different agencies with a " deal '' that if I can pay just half or so, it'll be all better. I don't feel that I have to pay anyone for a cancelled contract. And I don't believe that this should be on my credit report at all, I consider this an FDCPA violation and outright fraud. The original letter to XXXX and a copy of the latest collection letter will be uploaded soon.

I was contacted by I.C. Systems about a year ago, they called my cell phone repeatedly until I picked up. They asked me to confirm my information, to which I asked who they were. All they said was I.C Systems, I said " OK. And who are you? '' They told me they needed me to confirm my address, after multiple attempts I got fed up, and gave in to giving them my address. They told me that I owed them money from a previous doctors bill. I asked them to verify the information they were talking about. They could n't. They just told me that I owed them money from a doctors office. I told them they needed to send me information on this, to which they responded " We sent out a letter yesterday, we need you to make a payment. '' I told them I was n't making a payment to them without any information. They told me the letter was in the mail, to which I replied " ok, when I get the letter in the mail and review it, I 'll call you back. '' They called me again and again, same song and dance, telling me I owed them money and I needed to pay it. I told them I never received any paper work form them. They got very nasty with me and told me that it was sent out and that I needed to make a payment. I told them I would review the paperwork when I received it, and I would call them back. They kept calling, and I did n't pick up. It 's now a year later and I still have not received anything from them in the mail, even after confirming my address with them. This is harassment. They are non-stop calling, have n't sent me any information, they do n't confirm that they are a collection company or that they are collecting a debt and are very nasty. I have no problem paying my debt, but it wo n't be before I have any written information. This is now destroying my credit, because it 's been on there for a year, and I have n't received anything in the mail. I really hope that you can do something about this company because they have tons of bad reviews and do n't seem very reputable.

To Whom It May Concern : I.C. SYSTEM, INC with account number XXXX I disputed with the collection agency and they said they don't have record of this account. My right to privacy has been violated. I do not consent to you storing my personal information. I did not give any written consent to furnish anything on my consumer report. The FTC has noted that providing a copy of a printout, bill, or alleged account documents does not constitute validation. Mere itemization of what you already have does not accomplish my requested debt validation. This is my second request. Please provide me with ALL of the following points of information according to my consumer rights found in 15 usc 1692g. -Agreement with the original creditor that authorizes you to collect on this alleged debt and/or verification that this alleged debt was assigned or sold to you. -The agreement bearing my signature stating that I have agreed to assume the debt -Valid copies of the debt agreement stating the amount of the debt and interest charges -Proof that the Statute of Limitations in Georgia has not expired -Complete payment history on this account along with an accounting of all additional charges being assessed -Proof that you are licensed to collect in Georgia ; and -Your license numbers and Registered Agent or Agent of Service. Your non-compliance with my request will also be construed as an absolute waiver of all claims to enforce the debt against me and your implied agreement to compensate me for court costs and attorney fees if I am forced to bring this matter before a judge. I notice that you are still reporting this collection on my credit report, which is considered to be a collection activity. You are in violation of the FCPDA, and are now subject to fines of {$1000.00}, plus actual damages and attorneys fees, which I may collect from you by bringing this issue before a judge. I intend to take all legal steps available to me if I do not hear back from you.

On XXXX XX/XX/2023 I received a notification from XXXX that a collection item had been placed in my XXXX credit files by I. C. Systems , Inc. in the amount of XXXX XXXX ( XXXX ) dollars. To be clear I have not received a collection notice from I. C. Systems , Inc.. Given the amount, it would appear to be an item that was returned to the alleged original creditor " unable to collect '' because the former collections agent was unlawfully engaging in collections without license in my state. I asked that agency to verify and validate the alleged debt -- they did not. I asked the collections agent to provide me with a copy of the bill that substantiated the alleged amounts owed to the original creditor -- they did not. I asked for the name of their registered agent in my state, their business ID, and their license number with my state 's regulator -- they refused. Now, per the FDCPA I have thirty ( 30 ) days after receiving a collection notice to dispute the alleged collection item. Customarily the collections agent does not place a collection item within credit files until the debt can be verified and validated after notification of dispute is filed by the consumer and/or payment for the alleged amount is submitted before the thirty-day period has lapsed. I have received no collection notice and thus have been unable to exercise my right of notice and opportunity to be heard. As an individual that is employed by a XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, my finances are periodically reviewed and I am required to handle financial issues within close proximity to receiving notice.

This complaint is submitted for consideration as I have not received a response to my recent letter reference erroneous entries contained within my consumer credit profile at the XXXX, XXXX and XXXX consumer reporting agencies. These entries as currently reported are erroneous in nature and otherwise injurious to my true credit worthiness.

Should my complaint continue to be ignored, I will seek counsel and initiate litigation to compel correction of my consumer credit profile. Pursuant to the provisions contained within sections 1681i ( a ) ( 1 ) ( A ) and 1681i ( a ) ( 5 ) ( B ) ( i ) of the Fair Credit Reporting Act, I request that the below listed entries be investigated for accurateness and thereafter deleted from my consumer credit profile as they are erroneous in nature and otherwise injurious to my true credit worthiness.

Dispute was filed with XXXX and XXXX online XX/XX/2020 for accounts that DO NOT BELONG to me on my credit reports. I have also sent information to prove who I am by mail to XXXX, XXXX and XXXX and dispute these accounts. I have contacted the lenders of origin and collection companies in attempt to have erroneous accounts removed from my credit report. XXXX Customer Service Executive from NY has submitted paperwork for two accounts to be removed from credit reports for total of approximately {$1000.00}. Yesterday received letters from XXXX XXXX stating that these accounts were verified in dispute and belong to me. I called them and my social security number does not match the one on the accounts. I am not even a XXXX consumer. They were unable to resolve. Call to and certified letter sent to XXXX XXXX and they have yet to respond to dispute of approximately {$17000.00} written off and collection of approximately $ XXXX XXXX XXXX in collection by XXXX {$100.00} has not responded. IC systems collections {$1000.00} continues to show on reporting. I am attempting to have a VA Mortgage loan processed and these accounts are causing me financial damage and the VA is unable to complete the loan until the items in dispute are removed. I have all documents to prove who I am, where I have lived for the past 36 years, my social security number, etc. The remainder of my report shows excellent credit with an exceptional payment history on MY accounts. These credit bureaus have about 20 addresses listed- two of which are accurate and 14 phone numbers-two accurate. How quickly these credit bureaus and credit reporters can enter wrongful information and slowly do they work to clean up their mess. It is a vicious undertaking to personally attempt to correct the errors of, collection agencies and credit reporting. There should be a dual entry of information into these systems. One person enter and another have to enter to make sure that all information matches.

To whom it concerns, I have requested an investigation by the three major credit bureaus for the following debt collectors : I C System. This company opened an account using my personal information with no authorization from me. I C System has reported to The Bureau that the accounts of the alleged debt are open and active but listed under derogatory marks. How can an account show open under a collection status? I requested from all three bureaus ( XXXX, XXXX, and XXXX ) an investigation for this company, and the process has not started. XXXX sent a response letter providing me with the contact information for the debt collection company in which I have already sent a validation letter. I C System has reported an incorrect illegal account to The Credit Bureau without consent from me. The Bureau reported that the account was valid. I spoke with this company and explained that the devices were returned to the alleged Original Creditor. The Original Creditor was listed on my credit as XXXX XXXX which is incorrect. I am a consumer which makes me the Original Creditor. I also explained that the final bill was paid, and the account was closed. I requested that I C System provide me with a contractual agreement between them and I containing my signature. The document requested should show that I agreed to open an account using my name, address, phone number, social security number, etc within their establishment. I do not owe this company and the alleged debt has already been paid. This tactic is listed in the U.S. and State law as identity theft and has been violated. They assigned a company identifier number with my personal information attached for an alleged debt that I do not owe. According to 15 USC 1692 d : A debt collector may not engage in any conduct the natural consequence of which is to harass, oppress, or abuse any person in connection with the collection of a debt. I have multiple denials from major companies due to this oppression.

XXXX practices financial fraud on its consumers in general and me in particular. 1. While I had cellular service with XXXX they made several attempts to overcharge the monthly bill until I was able to identify the error. The MOST disturbing incident was the incident that caused me to leave XXXX. I purchased a phone from XXXX online for my son and added him to my account. When the phone never arrived, I tried to remove the charge from my XXXX bill unsuccessfully. I finally called the credit card to reverse the charge and which point XXXX added the {$200.00} bill for the device to my bill and tried to convince me that it was a result of a returned payment. This was only 1 of many times, they've tried to add additional money onto the bill. 2. I finally left XXXX and went into a XXXX store to start service only to learn that XXXX locked a device that was a. neither purchased from XXXX nor b. owned by XXXX in an attempt to prevent me from leaving their company. It took hours to get a supervisor to unlock the device. 3. On XX/XX/2019, XXXX ( my personal banking institution ) contacted me to alert me that {$620.00} withdrawals were being attempted by XXXX on both of my checking accounts. Neither of these drafts were authorized by me. 5. On XX/XX/XXXX, my XXXX credit card alerted me that XXXX was trying to make a withdrawal on my credit card for {$620.00}, again a transaction that was not authorized by me. I soon realized that XXXX was making an unauthorized attempt to charge every card I've every used to pay my XXXX bill over the 2 years I was with them. 6. They sent the account with an incorrect amount to a collections agency whom I have no contract with and is now reporting on my credit report. 7. I immediately posted this on a credit repair group on XXXX only to learn that XXXX practices this regularly and has been getting away with this from thousands of its customers who chose to leave their company. This is a major act of Financial FRAUD.

When checking my annual credit report ( for the first time ) I seen 2 collections on my report for services I did not authorize. I filed a complaint with XXXX regarding the following : Report Number : XXXX Date Generated Results : XX/XX/XXXX I C SYSTEM INC Account XXXX Many years ago I had my identity used by a former roommate. After I had moved out of an apartment we were sharing, I found out later, he had put the utilities and cable in my name. How I believe he took my information was we had went to the movies and after the show, I couldn't find my wallet. I thought someone pick-pocketed me, and stole it. I didn't have any credit cards ( I was just out of college ) or even a checking account, so I wasn't concerned at the time. Move forward months later, HIS dog, a golden retriever, was playing with something chewed up, and when I pulled it from her mouth, it was MY wallet. So I confronted my roommate, and he denied ever seeing it and accused ME of misplacing it. I brought up that I had paid for the movies that night the wallet came up missing with money from MY wallet, and how would I be of possession of something we both clearly looked for and alerted the movie manager. Needless to say, I moved and relocated closer to my family here in XXXX. Now that I found that he put the two accounts in my name, and left them in a delinquent status, I am once again being used by my former roommate. I tried to remove both these accounts, and the one listed above is the first one back with a [ denial ] response. Also what amplifies this matter is that the company above, in lieu of using the initial dates as previously reported, they moved the date of negative payment to THIS year. Is that legal? I'm sure if I didn't make an attempt to remove this, the charge would have fallen off soon, because I haven't lived in XXXX XXXX XXXX, Florida since XX/XX/XXXX. What, if anything, can you do to help me with this situation? Please advise. XXXX

I had an XXXX landline phone account which I had closed around XXXX XXXX. In XXXX XXXX, I get a notification ( in the form of a bill ) from XXXX that the same phone account has been reinstated, without my prior knowledge. I file a complaint with XXXX by calling their customer care representative. I am told that I wo n't owe any amount and that it will be taken care of. However, a few months later I got another inflated bill ( without any explanation of the charges on the bill ). I called the XXXX customer care again and they said the same thing that they will take care of the charge. In XXXX XXXX, I receive a letter from XXXX collection agency alleging that I owe XXXX for the above mentioned account. When I called the XXXX customer care representative, he mentioned that XXXX can not do anything at this point as the debt has been sold to the collection agency. Hence, I disputed the collection claim in writing with the collection agency saying that I do not owe this amount and I will need detailed documentation validating this claim. I do not hear from the collection agency again. In XXXX XXXX, I get a phone call from another collection agency named XXXX mentioning that I owe the alleged debt amount and I should pay it right away on phone or else it will be sent to the credit bureaus. I told them that I am disputing this alleged debt amount and that I should be sent detailed documentation validating the debt amount. They called me again threatening the same thing and I reiterated to send documentation for this debt. There was no further communication from them, either in writing or on phone. Now in XXXX XXXX, I see that there is a delinquent entry in my credit report from another collection agency called IC System. I have never heard of IC System before and have never received any communication from them. My credit score has suffered because of this entry and I fear that I may not be entitled to a loan or at a better interest rate.

In XX/XX/2021 a collection account was reported on my credit report. I.C. System Inc has harassed me on several occasions in regards to collect a debt in the amount of {$680.00} which is a violation of the FDCPA 15 USC 1692d and FDCPA 15 USC 1692b ( 3 ) due to contacting me more than once. I have NEVER given I.C. System Inc DIRECT CONSENT as a consumer, in which they can not communicate with me the consumer in connection with the collection of ANY debt which is a violation of the FDCPA 15 USC 1692c ( a ). I have sent two certified dispute letters to XXXX to validate this debt and never received the correct five documentations that constitutes I owe this debt which is a violation of the FDCPA 15 USC 1692g. I sent the first letter on XX/XX/2021 and the second letter on XX/XX/2021. The investigation came back as verified which is a violation of the FCRA 15 USC 1681a ( e ) because the proper investigation was not completed that consist of the consumers ( myself ) character, general reputation, personal characteristics, or mode of living obtained through personal interviews with neighbors, friends, or associations which they dont have my consent to communicate with third parties as stated in the FDCPA 15 USC 1692c ( b ). I.C. System Inc stated in the letter that I received that their office has reported this debt to the credit reporting agencies. This is an alleged debt that I do not owe, and by them reporting it to the credit reporting agencies it is a violation of FDCPA 15 USC 1692e2 ( A ) and has tremendously, negatively impacted my credit report. I.C. System Inc also violated FDCPA 15 USC 1692c ( a ) ( 1 ) by contacting me at an inconvenient time as I have been making funeral arrangements for the death of my uncle. Due to violations that I.C. System Inc has committed, this account needs to be deleted from the credit reporting agencies and by law in reference to the FDCPA 15 USC 1692k I need to be compensated per violation for damages.

I relocated from XXXX XXXXXXXX XXXX in XXXX. I have been living in XXXXXXXX XXXX since XX/XX/XXXX. When I left XXXX XXXX, XXXX I closed out my account with XXXX and returned their equipment before l left. In XX/XX/XXXX hurricane XXXX happened and prevented any further charges due to long term power outages. In XXXX of XXXX I saw a derogatory account from XXXX for {$320.00}, that said it was reported in XXXX of XXXX, appear on my credit report. I immediately disputed the bill through XXXX XXXX, but the decision came back that the information was accurate. I disputed it again through XXXX XXXX and stated the information about hurricane XXXX, but it came back again as accurate information. Then I disputed the bill through XXXX credit bureau twice and they noted that the bill meets the Fair Credit Reporting Act guidelines and that I would need to contact XXXX. On XX/XX/XXXX I called XXXX. I was informed that the bill was for services from XX/XX/XXXX to XX/XX/XXXX. I stated that I live in XXXX XXXX during that time frame, and that I could not have made those charges. They asked if I left anyone behind and I said no. We picked my son up from XXXX XXXX, in XX/XX/XXXX due to illness. When we left XXXX XXXX in XX/XX/XXXX the power was still off since XX/XX/XXXX. No one was in the house during the dates of service. However, they continue to report the inaccurate charges. I believe XXXX has generated these charges fraudulently and are using predatory tactics to remain on my credit report. In addition, I have been denied credit from XXXX XXXX for an additional credit card with rewards due to the inaccurate information reported on my credit report by XXXX. I wish to have the information removed from my report ; and have XXXX report to XXXX that they reported inaccurate information on my credit report that caused my credit score to go down. In addition, I would like for them to pay damages in the amount of credit loss due to their negligence.

My name is XXXX XXXX, a federally protected consumer, and I am making this complaint against ( IC SYSTEM ) for committing identity theft. I have never given ( IC SYSTEM ) any permission to use any of my identifying information to commit mail fraud by contacting me about an alleged debt they claim I owe. I am aware that the that in accordance with Article XXXX, the assignment of a defaulted note is illegal. Both the assignee and the assigned are both liable for violations under 15 U.S. Code 1692e ( 12 ). I have never received any documentation requesting validation from ( IC SYSTEM ) before they committed multiple violations under the FCRA and the FDCPA by furnishing this alleged debt to my consumer report including but not limited to 15 U.S. Code 1692d ( 4 ) which the FTC defines as debt parking. If ( IC SYSTEM ) can not provide me with proof such as a tracking number that they attempted to lawfully validate this alleged debt with me, the consumer, prior to furnishing it on my consumer report, this has been a fraudulently furnished account with forethought and malice as an attempt to bring harm to me and my financial reputation. I am legally refusing to pay this debt pursuant to 1692c ( c ). I am demanding a cease and desist of all illegal activity, any communication and collection activity, of this and any alleged debts until ( IC SYSTEM ) can provide me with sufficient documentary evidence that I have any legal obligation to pay them. If this documentary evidence can not be produced and ( IC SYSTEM ) continues its collection efforts, I will file for litigation for actual damages caused and ( IC SYSTEM ) will be held criminally liable for aggravated identity theft pursuant to 18 USC 1028A, extortion, theft by deception, securities fraud, and mail fraud. Upon the receipt of the documents herein and of this notice, you are hereby notified Pursuant UCC 1-202f. Your prompt attention and response are both requested and required.

I have a medical debt from my new born child from XXXX XXXX XXXX ( XXXX ) when she was born on XXXX XXXX 2015. I was covered under my father 's health coverage but my daughter was not when she arrived. I applied for her health coverage under the affordable care act ( ACA ) under the state of New Jersey on XXXX XXXX of 2015 and received a confirmation number but as of this day I still do n't have medical coverage for my daughter. I contacted XXXX XXXX who is my daughter 's primary doctor of the fact and could they put me on a payment plan until coverage begins, they verbally said they could and was also informed that her initial debt from the hospital would get paid when her coverage began. Contrary to what I was told by their office staff, it went to IC System collections. Regarding getting coverage in my state, I received a confirmation number when initially applying and have been following up regularly and had to submit pay statements from my part time employment for the process to go further. Like I said in the aforementioned, my daughter is still not covered medically and I just received a rejection letter regarding my daughters application due to the person processing her application did n't see an address for my place of employment. I think this wait for her coverage is way beyond what was envisioned when the XXXX was instituted. I just wanted to bring awareness to other federal and state agencies and know of the dilemma I am encountering and the inefficient processing of my over 6 months old application. I am hoping this complaint, can also inform future care givers of the problems faced with applying for medical coverage within each state and navigating the bureaucratic maze. I am not ruling out seeking the counsel of a lawyer to address the enrollment delay and collection tactics. I question the legality of collection tactics while XXXX applications are still being processed. Thanks for looking into my complaint.

I requested XXXX XXXX to be canceled XX/XX/XXXX. I had {$0.00} balance on my account. I moved and kept equipment to possibly reactivate service at new address. Apartment management said no equipment can be attached to the building. It took several months to get the response from apartment management. I was contacted by XXXX XXXX XXXX by mail and phone. We discussed the amount owed and that it is for the equipment I had not returned. I returned all equipment XX/XX/XXXX. I still received statements through USPS requesting I pay the account balance for the equipment. I contacted XXXX several times telling them I had returned all eequipment.I emailed copies of the returned equipment shipment invoice. The charge still wasn't removed from my account. I spoke to several customer service agents and I was told by one agent that the equipment has been received but not entered into my account file. The agent assured me that the account would be updated and the balance would be removed. I received another phone call from XXXX again requesting me to pay the amount due and that it is now because the service was not deactivated as I requested by phone on XX/XX/XXXX. I no longer had service and also the equipment was packaged and still in moving boxes. The problem is now after XXXX received the equipment, the amount said due was now for service apparently not deactivated as I requested on XX/XX/XXXX. XXXX can access the account to see that the service was not being used. I would not move to a new address without deactivating service knowing I would continue being charged monthly. Please if someone can help resolve this incorrect information as it has affected my credit score significantly. The account was supposed to be closed and I I returned the equipment as requested and the amount due was supposed to be removed and the balance should be {$0.00}. Please respond with any help and or advice regarding this dispute. Thank you, XXXX XXXX

Dear Sir/Madam, I am writing to formally report a matter of great concern related to my credit report. An account that I do not recognize, managed by a collections agency called IC System, has appeared on my credit report. I firmly believe this is a fraudulent account and it has negatively impacted my credit score. I first became aware of this issue a few months back. Despite not having any knowledge of the debt, I contacted IC System to investigate. However, they have been unable to provide me with sufficient information to validate the debt. According to XXXX XXXX, the fraudulent charge first appeared on XXXX and is supposedly collections for a direct tv account. I have never had XXXX XXXX and, during the time period in question ( since 2018 ), I have been living in a relative 's home and would not and could not have signed an agreement for XXXX XXXX. This is fraudulent and IC System knows it. I have not entered into any agreement or incurred any financial obligation that could justify this account, nor have I received any form of communication or warning regarding this debt before it appeared on my credit report. I understand the serious implications of credit fraud and the profound impact it can have on an individual 's life. Therefore, I kindly request your assistance in this matter. Please treat this case as a potential fraudulent activity, and help me in rectifying this issue as soon as possible. As required, I have also sent a dispute letter to the credit reporting agencies, challenging the accuracy of this information. I am also keeping a vigilant eye on my accounts and credit reports for any other suspicious activities. I trust that the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau will conduct a thorough investigation into this matter, protect consumers ' rights, and take appropriate action against any fraudulent activities. Thank you for your attention to this serious matter. Sincerely, XXXX XXXX XXXX

Approximately 2 years ago I had changed my cellular phone service to XXXX XXXX and I had to purchase a new phone to utilize their service. I purchased a XXXX XXXX XXXX phone for {$750.00}, the most I have ever paid for a phone. Within a few weeks the phone had a problem with charging, there was an alert given when I would plug in the charging cord. It would say that there was moisture in the charging port. The phone had never ever been in the presence of any water. I had contacted XXXX XXXX and they sent me a new phone of the same type and they had me send the defective phone back to them. Within a short time I was contacted by XXXX XXXX saying that I had caused corrosion in the phone and that the problem was my fault. After much communication with them and many other agencies including XXXX who admitted that this was a flaw in their phone but they were working on it and I would have to deal with my provider, they would not do anything either. Meanwhile the phone was under warrantee and XXXX had told me that the phone could be submerged in water for an hour, taken out and let dry, and it would be fine, but I had never had the phone in any direct contact with any water. Subsequently XXXX XXXX shut off my service, locked out the phone and my phone number, and I went back to XXXX, got another brand new phone and number, and recently I had gotten an alert on my XXXX XXXX that there was a collection action on my credit report. I had no contact regarding this and no opportunity to defend myself. Early on in this matter I had tried to find some help through some consumer agency but there was nothing and no way to deal with this issue. I am a semi-disabled senior living on my social security and small pension, and this was fraud on the part of XXXX XXXX. I don't know if there is anything that can be done at this point but it is criminal that a company can act in this way and consciously take advantage of people like myself..

I never had a contract with this debt collector for any debt. I have asked ( XX/XX/XXXX ) this creditor to provide proof from the original creditor that this debt collector owns this debt and has the legal authority to collect it or delete this account. This request was never fulfilled. My second request for this verification was XX/XX/XXXX. It was never fulfilled. After disputing this account with the credit bureaus and it was deleted from my XXXX and XXXX report but XXXX failed to perform an investigation and delete the disputed information. According to the FCRA, If a bureau finds that information is inaccurate or incomplete, it must correct the information and notify the other credit reporting agencies that received the information. This account was last reported on my credit report XX/XX/XXXX. I submitted this statement to the XXXX and IC Systems responded as such : The information in this complaint is substantially the same as disputes previously received through a consumer reporting agency. IC has already investigated and replied to the credit reporting agencies ( XX/XX/XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX ). Nevertheless, IC has referred to the creditor and/or its records for additional information to respond to this complaint. The results will be sent directly to the consumer within 30 days. I also submitted a XXXX complaint to XXXX XXXX XXXX and it responded as such : As none of the client contact information provided links to any XXXX records we are unable to look into this matter further. Please note that XXXX does not have any control over the credit bureaus and what they or collection agencies report to, or about individuals. If this is related to a XXXX record we would need the client information as it appears on the account. With this information it is apparent that this account can not be proven to be mine and IC System would have found this out if it had actually investigated my prior complaints.

Equipment had been returned, technicians confirmed and verified no service on interior lines since XX/XX/XXXX. Called repeatedly threatening me to block all source of internet companies and I would be arrested because my kids could not go to school. Their name is XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX Every so often apologizing and clearing the erroneous amount due after they failed to close account. A month later a new person would call and the entire thing would start again. Did not hear from them after I was told no long amount in dispute. Over 1 year. Suddenly this appears and ic begins to harass me as if I am unable to know what I owe and how to manage. Suggesting my 'disability has handicapped my brain, maybe someone else should pay debts do I do not cause more damage '. All I can say is ignorant! Please help me to prevent companies from this unprofessional behavior. After explaining they could just act rational and not negatively effect my disorder with needless stress they began to capitalize on that exact point Over and over again. I hope they kept the recorded calls to be heard. Shameful! If you would please help with a written guideline for me to resolve successfully. Thank you. The Mark on my credit effects my kids college loans. And all 4 kids want to go. # 2 is applying now. Hence my noticing prior to another student loan.

Dear IC System Team, I am reaching out to file an urgent complaint regarding an unauthorized and fraudulent collection account reported by IC System on behalf of XXXX XXXX XXXX, which has appeared on my credit report. This account is a direct result of identity theft and is causing significant distress to my financial standing. I want to emphasize that I have never conducted any business or held an account with XXXX XXXX XXXX at the address associated with this collection account. This discrepancy indicates a clear case of identity theft, which has unfairly impacted my credit history and overall financial well-being. The presence of this unauthorized collection account has created an erroneous and unjust impact on my credit report. I am formally requesting the immediate removal of this account from my credit report. Additionally, I insist that all collection activity related to this account by IC System cease immediately. It is evident that the reporting of this account violates the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) due to its fraudulent nature, and I firmly believe it infringes upon my rights as a consumer. I demand prompt action to rectify this situation and to restore the accuracy and integrity of my credit report. Enclosed with this complaint, you will find supporting documentation that substantiates the claim of identity theft and the erroneous reporting of this collection account by IC System. I urgently seek your intervention to investigate this matter and ensure the immediate removal of this fraudulent account from my credit report. Additionally, I request your assistance in halting all collection activities associated with this account. Please do not hesitate to contact me should you require further information or supporting documentation. Thank you for your immediate attention to this matter. I eagerly await your prompt resolution and assistance in addressing this issue. Sincerely,

Please assist, this has really been a problem that has been out of hand and I have also went through you in XX/XX/XXXX complaint # XXXX to get some resolve from this account and have been very unsuccessful. Where do I turn when I have tried all that I can and no resolve. My rights have been violated extremely with no updates, dispute responses account from XXXX just constantly keeps being re-aged and resold to several debt collectors and no updates have been placed on my account from XXXX or credit bureaus advising of my disputes or resolutions. No documentation what so ever has been furnished with signed contracts or dates from me to XXXX. Now, the debt that isnt mine has been sold to XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX and this game should not be allowed from them. I am contacting the BBB and citing several FCRA violations on my behalf. 30 days have passed 30 times and the previous inquiry I sent through you all is still showing OPEN, how can this be so? How can these harmful impacts on omy credit not matter to anyone. Why is n't anyone forcing them to furnish information and or remove for good and never place back on my report ever again. I am hoping you can assist me in making this final goodwill gesture to allow correction of erroneous reporting, and I am maintaining a careful record of my communications with them for the purpose of filing a complaint with the Attorney Generals office, should their non-compliance continue. I further remind them that, as in XXXX v. XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX. XXXX ( C.D.Cal. XX/XX/XXXX ), you may be liable for your willful non-compliance. Failure to respond satisfactorily within 30 days of receipt of this certified letter may result in a small claims action against your company, seeking {$1000.00} per violation for : 1. ) Defamation 2. ) Negligent Enablement of Identity Fraud 3. ) Violations of the Fair Credit Reporting Act In LAST HOPES, please have this handled!

On XX/XX/2021 I decided to make the switch from XXXX to XXXX as they seem to have the better cell service. The deal was to get two new lines including phones which was supposed to be as follows : XXXX XXXX XXXX : Cost : {$490.00} via {$16.00} monthly payments over 30 months Promotion : monthly bill credit of {$16.00} over 30 months making this device free XXXX XXXX XXXX : Cost : {$740.00} via {$24.00} monthly payments over 30 months Promotion : monthly bill credit of {$19.00} over 30 months which would have cost me {$5.00} per month for a total of {$150.00} XXXX ended up somehow processing the order incorrectly and did not add the XXXX XXXX monthly payment for the XXXX XXXX to my monthly bill. This is turn made it look like I was intentionally not making my device payments. I was unaware of this, and XXXX decided to charge me the full amount of the phone ( {$740.00} ) because I was " not making monthly payments on my device '' unbeknownst to me. I attempted to resolve this with XXXX on several occasions via phone calls and they told me even though it was their mistake, I waited too long to get this resolved. I should never have had to deal with this in the first place, but to admit you made an error and still not correct it is unacceptable. I have never had any late payments or collections on my credit ( for 20 years now ) and now this has affected my credit and I overpaid ( {$650.00} instead of the {$150.00} ) as I just wanted to settle this to avoid it being on my credit report. After making my payment, XXXX reported me to the credit bureau for " paying a collection for less than the amount owed ''. This is absolutely absurd, and I am hoping this will be corrected through this complaint. I do not know what else to do. They can look at my contract and then take a look at how it was processed... incorrectly. This is an error on XXXX, not me and I should not be penalized!

I just recently reviewed my credit report and it generated this debt collector as someone that I owed money to. I have never done business with or signed a contract with this company. I found that several aspects of the report are actually inaccurate.According to the Fair Credit Reporting Act, 15 U.S.C 1681g I have the right to request that this company disclose all of the documents that they have retained in my credit file pertaining to the items listed below that they have under my social security number. Please do not allow them respond by saying that these accounts have been verified without sending me the information used to verify the accounts. This information is inaccurate and need to be investigated. Please validate this information with the creditors and provide me with copies of any documentation associated with these accounts, bearing my signature. Please provide me with the below mention listed things : The amount I.C. Systems claim I owe Explain and show me how they have computed the amount Send me copies of any documents that prove I agreed to pay the alleged amount Identify the original creditor Confirm that the account has not crossed the SOL period Prove that youre a licensed debt collector Show me your license number and registered agent Show that you are allowed to collect within my state Once again, this by law this creditor must have ALL verification documents already in their possession upon receipt of this letter, otherwise these in absence of any such documentation bearing my signature, I formally request that this information be immediately deleted from the credit file you under my Social Security number. I would like to inform you that in case your agency reported invalidated account information to any of the 3 main Credit Bureaus such as XXXX, XXXX, XXXX, then it will be regarded as a fraudulent action under both the federal and state laws.

I C SYSTEMS COLLECTIONS # XXXXI believe under the Fair Debt Collections Practices Act, I am requesting that you allow me to validate the alleged debt. I am aware that there is a debt from MEDICAL-XXXX but I am unaware of the amount due and your bill does not include a breakdown of any fees. Additionally, I am allowed under the HIPAA law [ HEALTH INSURANCE PORTABILITY AND ACCOUNTABILITY ACT OF 1996 ], to protect my privacy and medical records from third parties. I do not recall giving permission to { name of provider } for them to release my medical information to a third party. I am aware that the HIPAA does allow for limited information about me but anything more is to only be revealed with the patients authorization, therefore my request is twofold and as follows : Validation of Debt and HIPAA authorization -Please provide breakdown of fees including any collection costs and medical charges -Provide a copy of my signature with the provider of service to release my medical information to you -Cease any credit bureau reporting until debt has been validated by me Please send this information to my address listed above and accept this letter-sent certified mail as my formal debt validation request, which I am allowed under the FDCPA. Please note that withholding the information you received from any medical provider in an attempt to be HIPAA compliant can be a violation of the FDCPA because you will be deceiving me after my written request. I request full documentation of what you received from the provider of service in connection with this alleged debt. Additionally, any reporting of this debt to the credit bureaus prior to allowing me to validate it may be a violation of the Fair Credit Reporting Act, which can allow me to seek damages from a collection agent. I will await your reply with above requested proof. Upon receiving it, I will respond by certified Mail.

IC Systems does work hand in hand with XXXX and they even tell you thank you for being a valued XXXX customer when they take your payment.The entire situation was falsely presented and very misleading because they should not tell you that you will be paid in full if you are not and XXXX offered this end of the month special to me.I did not ask for it.

I moved back to the US after living XXXX for 4 years XXXX, and without US health insurance yet. But on XX/XX/XXXX, I had a necessary appointment with my XXXX XXXX XXXX and received a list of prices that would have equated to a XXXX XXXX dollars, but when the bill came in it was for {$3000.00}. On XX/XX/XXXX, I talked to the office Supervisor, XXXX XXXX, and asked how that was possible when nothing on the pricing they gave me even equated to {$1000.00}, and all I had was an initial consult and XXXX XXXX. The Supervisor apologized and informed me that I had been given the XXXX prices, and their prices had increased significantly in the new year, but she immediately contacted someone named XXXX XXXX and cc 'd me asking if they would please honor the pricing I had been quoted. I never heard back from XXXX, and on XX/XX/XXXX I was contacted by billing informing me that I was being sent to collections. I explained the situation, and they told me to email everything I had just said to XXXX to avoid being sent to collections and to have someone contact me about my case. I did this immediately after hanging up the phone, using the original email sent by the medical office 's Supervisor saying they gave me the wrong pricing ; replying all in addition to adding the customer service email. Again, I heard nothing back, and on XX/XX/XXXX, I went back to the office and once again spoke with the office Supervisor. She apologized and assured me that she was going to take care of it. In XXXX, I received a call from a collections agency stating that they had my account, again I explained the situation to them, and offered to send them proof. She assured me that that would not be necessary, and she would contact XXXX about the case. Today, I received an account validation letter from IC System debt collectors dated XX/XX/XXXX simply stating that I need to pay them the money.

Filing an Official Complaint Against I.C. System, Inc, account # XXXX I would like to file this complaint against due to the following : 1. XXXX, I established an account with XXXX XXXX company. I received an Agreement with no beginning or expiration date after I was told the contract would expire one year after the date of the agreement. 2. I met the verbal agreement. . 4. At the end of the one year, I returned all equipment at the local XXXX XXXX Office and asked the representative to note that I had returned the equipment and to close this account ; yet I was told the account could not be closed because it was a business account. 5. Since XXXX continued to bill me, I wrote two letters to XXXX and asked that they cease billing me and to close the account. I was told by XXXX they received the letters but unless I sign an early termination agreement, the letters were irrelevant and the account would remain open. The early termination document was sent to me via email and was rescinded promptly when I refused to sign it. 6. The local XXXX XXXX company, Executive Customer Relations Specialist, at XXXX, responded that I had a fee for early termination fee in the amount of {$790.00}. I disputed this balance as explained above. 8. XX/XX/XXXX, nearly three years later, XXXX has forwarded this account to a collection agency ( IC System, INC XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, MN XXXX ) which I find to be a defamation of my character and fraudulent in an attempt to collect an erroneously alleged debt. In summary, XXXX, I was informed this account has been settled.I ask that you intervene on my behalf. As a citizen for nearly seventy years, I take my financial responsibility seriously to ensure I meet my obligations. The business practice of XXXX described above is unethical, unfair, and egregious. I ask your assistance in resolving this matter and clearing my reputation.

I recently received a bill from the below listed Credit collection agency. When I inquired who the retailer was, they failed to give me relative information pertaining to address, phone numbers, or a copy of the initial purchase request. Although they supplied the name of the company and their own account number, they failed to supply a purchase order, address of same, nor a phone number. The collection agency is as follows : XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX. XXXX XXXX XXXX, MN XXXX ( XXXX XXXX XXXX Department of Consumer Affairs License # XXXX and XXXX ) In substance, it states that I have a delinquent account, submitted to them from the following retailer : XXXX XXXX XXXX ( Account No. XXXX ) ( I.C. systems ref # XXXX ) ( UNKNOWN FORWARDING ADDRESS OR PHONE. ) I am a XXXX, and I am currently on Social Security XXXX and receive a XXXX pension from my ex-employer. Occasionally, XXXX supply companies call me to pitch XXXX supplies. My understanding, according to their statements, that all fees would be covered by XXXX, at no cost to me. They never told me that their would be a fee for this service, and I don't recall signing an agreements for said products. The collection service also stated that they will attempt to mail me a retailer 's copy of an invoice, and that I shouldn't, worry because I still had thirty ( 30 ) days to respond, to their notice. I felt that I should submit this report in any event. In the event they state contacting me via phone line, then they should be investigate for calling a registered DO NOT CALL PHONE. There are three addresses in my county that are the same, and the only thing that distinguishes one from the other is North, East, West, and South. My family and I live at XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX. Not XXXX XXXX or XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX. Thank you for your time and attention to this matter. XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX

Back in XXXX, I had an account for cable/internet/phone service with XXXX now known as XXXX. I cancelled the service and switched to another provider. My family and I bought a house and moved in XXXX. Ironically, when we moved, my husband opened an account with XXXX. Unbeknownst to me, apparently, I had an outstanding balance of {$310.00} dating back to XXXX. I received no notification of the outstanding balance. The XXXX sent my account to a collection agency, IC System, Inc. who never sent me any correspondence. Instead, they just reported it to the credit bureaus. Once it showed up on my credit report, I proceeded to call IC System, Inc. to dispute it. They said it was a XXXX account so I called XXXX and that is when I learned about the outstanding balance. The representative at Spectrum said I could make the payment with her over the phone which I did - I gave her my credit card number. She advised that they would contact the collection agency to have them update their records to show it as being paid. Over the past 6 weeks, I have called IC System, Inc. and they keep telling me that they are waiting for Spectrum to update the file on their end. I call Spectrum and they tell me they have notified IC System, Inc on XX/XX/XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX and XX/XX/XXXX. In addition, on XX/XX/XXXX, I faxed IC System, Inc a printout from my credit card account showing the balance was paid by credit card on XX/XX/XXXX and it was charged to my card on XX/XX/XXXX. To add insult to injury, I got home today, XX/XX/XXXX, and there is a collection notice from them. When I called, they confirmed they had my fax showing the payment made!! But they still insist on sending collection notices despite receive a cease and desist all collection efforts from XXXX, the original creditor. I'm stuck in the middle and can not get this resolved.

XXXX is FRAUDULANTLY REPORTING a delinquent account that they have full knowledge was fraudulantly created by their own sales representative seeking a commission. Some 2 years ago, a XXXX installer knocked on my door to install XXXX cable service that XXXX ) I never ordered, 2 ) had no knowledge of and 3 ) I DECLINED ANY INSTALLATION OF OR SERVICE. This all took place after I moved to my current residence at XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX XXXX Florida, where I have NEVER HAD XXXX EQUIPMENT OR SERVICE OF ANY KIND ( including without limitation internet, cable or any other service from XXXX XXXX. The installer determined that some XXXX SALES REP created the fake account to earn a commission. The XXXX installer told me I needed to call XXXX to correct, which I did on at least 5 occasions. Rather than following the paperwork to determine WHO AT XXXX CREATED THE FRAUDULANT ACCOUNT TO BEGIN WITH, XXXX continued to arrogantly make it my problem. XXXX HAS NEVER PROVIDED EVEN A DAYS WORTH OR SERVICE OF ANY KIND TO ME AT THIS HOME ( we have and continue to use XXXX XXXX from day 1 ). XXXX and their collection agenecies have been notified of the FRAUD ad nauseum, but continue to take no responsibility to fix the problem ( which could easily be fixed by them merely tracking their sale rep that created the fake account to begin with ). They are a company that is too big to care, and instead WRONGFULLY AND FRAUDULANTLY made the intentional bad faith decision to report this fake account to my credit, causing significant actual damages to me and my finances. This is wrongful, intentional and deserving of punitive damages - they need to be punished for these careless, lazy and completely wrongful bad-faith actions. XXXX has been notified of the above NUMEROUS TIMES on RECORDED LINES, which I hereby request access to under the Freedom of Information Act.

I Reached out to IC systems IXXXX, who is a debt collector for XXXX XXXX or XXXX on XX/XX/23. I notified them that they put a collection on my credit for XXXX. They informed me that the account was in someone else 's name that's close to my name but it is not my name. I informed them that their information was inaccurate and I have never had an account with spectrum and they told me to reach out to spectrum. I reached out to spectrum as well on XX/XX/23 and they told me that a family member was using my information. I asked what information and they said they took the first XXXX letters of your name and opened an account but they didn't have any other information. I spoke with a spectrum supervisor on XX/XX/23 and she informed me that the account they're referring to does not have any of my information attached to it ( SSN number, DOB, Full name or Address ). I also reached out to XXXX and filed a dispute and they sent me an email and said they deemed the information to be accurate. I called and asked a representative what information that they linked to me to make it accurate and he said that I needed to reach back out to the creditor who reported the information. It seems that they are all pointing the finger to one another but no-one can prove that an account was opened in my full name using any of my personal information. I feel like I'm being targeted and railroaded just because a company is trying to blame someone because they can't find the real person responsible for this debt. I've spoke to several representatives from IC systems INC since XX/XX/23 and no information that they have given me links this account to me so I don't know how its on my credit. They don't have my real name, email address, DOB, address, they don't have anything but 3 letters of my first name and last name. This is not right and not ethical and against the law!

This complaint is regarding the debt in collection in the amount of {$94.00} being reported by IC System opened XX/XX/2019, being reported on my XXXX credit report. This amount due was when I had an account with XXXX XXXX XXXX, prior to it being taken over by XXXX XXXX. When I had my account with XXXX XXXX XXXX, I resided at XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX. When I moved from that location, I turned in all of my cable boxes and equipment and asked what any remaining balance I had due, which at that time was {$94.00}. That amount was paid at that time in person. This was also either at or very close to the time XXXX XXXX XXXX was making the transition from XXXX XXXX XXXX to XXXX. When I moved to my new address, I did not have services put in my name. However, I did receive one remaining piece of mail at my new address from XXXX XXXX XXXX, stating I owed {$94.00}, at which time I called XXXX XXXX XXXX and was told, I did not owe that amount as that bill generated close to the time I turned in my boxes and paid the {$94.00} in cash and that it was an overlap. I had a {$0.00} balance. I received no subsequent mailings or billing statements from XXXX XXXX XXXX. In reviewing my credit report, I discovered the account in collection with IC Systems for the {$94.00} bill from XXXX XXXX XXXX now XXXX. The first time I called IC Systems was on Tuesday, XX/XX/2019, at which time, they confirmed they still had the incorrect address for me on file which is why I never received anything in the mail from them. Otherwise, I would have taken care and disputed this sooner. I have also disputed this through XXXX and it is my understanding it has been removed from my credit. I am likewise, requesting it is deleted from any and all other credit reporting bureaus such as XXXX and also XXXX and no additional collection or judgement or public record activity be noted.

They informed me about an electrical bill that is past due to XXXX XXXX, from an address that I never resided at. I informed them that I don't know anything about this bill, never received any debt demanding letters nor any bills from XXXX XXXX or from IC Systems Collections and I asked them to remove their false report from my Credit History. Immediately I called XXXX XXXX, I was worried about my personnel information being compromised. XXXX XXXX was not able to find an account in my name either. I informed IC SYSTEMS Collections about XXXX XXXX not being able to find an account under my name. They said that they have to validate the debt with their client. In this case, I asked IC SYSTEMS COLLECTIONS to remove any collection records from my Credit Report, since they are not able to validate the debt. AT the moment, I am in process of buying a house. The IC Systems Collections refuses to remove their collection record from my Credit Report. IC SYSTEMS COLLECTIONS committed an unfair and illegal act which violates my rights under Fair Debt Collection Practices Act, 808 and 809. I asked for your assistance in resolving this matter.

A few years ago XX/XX/XXXX, ( unfortunately I ca n't remember the date ), I ordered XXXX. The service tech came, installed the product. Within a matter of days XXXX XXXX would n't work. At the cost of {$50.00} a tech came and fiddled around with the system got it working and stated that I will never get good reception because of the trees on my property. A couple of days later I called XXXX again because of no reception. Again, at the fee of {$50.00}, the tech stated I would need to have my trees removed to get good reception. I called XXXX XXXX and asked that they come and remove their system from my home. I called my previous carrier who showed up that very day to reinstall my XXXX XXXX. XXXX sent me a shipping box to send them back their product. I paid my remaining bill and felt assured they were now a part of my past. Since that time XXXX XXXX has been trying to collect {$410.00} from me. XXXX states that when I requested their service it was " understood '' that I was in a 2 year contract with them! I NEVER agreed to such a contract. They stated because I broke the contract, I owe them this money!!! I feel they owe ME money!! I never received the service from them that I paid for. I had it for less than a month and it was never explained to me that I was in a 2 year commitment with them. I recently received a debt collection notice from a collection agency. I called them, stated this information again and they stated they will notify XXXX of my dispute and I should hear back in 60 days. I have had this conversation over and over and over again with XXXX XXXX. From my last conversation with XXXX, I " understood '' they were closing this case and I did n't owe them. I was very surprised to receive a debt collection notice from a collection agency. I need your help to get them to STOP trying to collect money I DO NOT OWE THEM.

I spoke to them about changing wireless carriers, ( which never occurred ) and I paid a fee for a new XXXX phone and XXXX watch. Approximately, 7-8 days later XXXX XXXX XXXX sent an XXXX watch to my fathers house, and a new phone to the same location, which arrived approximately 6-7 weeks later. That was not what I was told about the equipment/service and the cost was higher than I was told. I contacted XXXX XXXX XXXX who could not find my account, as well as the salesmen who came to my house. I received no assistance initially from either and I felt I was being duped. About 10 days after that, XXXX XXXX XXXX debited my account on XXXX individual occasions for these phone/watch/activation service fees, this caused numerous NSF fees. Several screaming calls to XXXX XXXX XXXX later, yielded a customer service representative who located my account, he claimed that my account wasn't labeled correctly and that's why none of the other representatives to locate it and he was able to refund some of my money. That customer service representative told me I was being debited continuously so that XXXX XXXX XXXX could get their money upfront and that the debits would continue. At that point, I sent back all of the equipment. I have the returned equipment receipts from XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX I had to cancel that debit card to stop the repeated debiting. I do not owe XXXX XXXX XXXX any money for any services other than internet service which is current, I don't have or want their wireless service, cable service or any other services from them.

On XX/XX/XXXX, XXXX a debt validation letter was sent to IC SYSYEM for three alleged debts for XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX : XXXX, XXXX XXXX F/K/A XXXX XXXX XXXX : XXXX, XXXX XXXX F/K/A XXXX XXXX XXXX. A CREDIT REPORTING REMOVAL letter was received XX/XX/XXXX stating that " they were unable to verify the information reported and have requested that any information provided to the credit reporting agencies regarding this account XXXX be deleted or removed ''. On two of three CREDIT REPORTING REMOVAL Documents that were sent one had my name spelled incorrectly as XXXX XXXX instead of XXXX XXXX that they appears on the other two documents. Shortly after receiving these documents IC SYSTEM was contacted at XXXX. I spoke to a agent who identified himself as XXXX or XXXX, who I then explained that document were received from your company stating a debt was to be removed, but my name was spelled incorrect. The agent puts me on hold to speak to his supervisor, and then comes back on the line, states that they will not send a corrected letter and then proceeds to try to collect on the debt in question of XXXX that in there own letter was admitted that they could not verify the debt. A argument erupts on the phone between myself and the agent, because of his refusal to correct the document that his company sent to me. Also to be noted the agent admitted that the document was a grammatical error, but refused to send a updated corrected version to me. The phone call ended after a few minutes of argumentative conversation with the agent saying I would receive a letter from them after I informed them that I would seek legal counsel if the matter is not corrected. Shortly after this XXXX, XXXX, XXXX were contacted to obtain procedure for complaint against IC SYSTEM. Shortly after this CFPB was contacted to get directive on how to file a complaint.

Be advised this is not a refusal to pay, but a notice sent pursuant to the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act, 15 USC 1692g stating your claim is disputed and validation is requested. This is NOT a request for verification or proof of my mailing address, but a request for VALIDATION made pursuant to the above-named Title and Section. I respectfully request your offices provide me with competent evidence, such as a trilateral contract, that I have any legal obligation to pay you. I will need this documentary evidence to insure that your office isnt using unlawful extortionate means, as defined by 18 U.S. Code 891, with forethought and malice to bring harm to me or my financial reputation by making any false claims of securities, causing a tax liability. This documentation showing my legal obligation to pay you would insure me that there isnt any unlawful theft by deception, bank fraud, and creation of false and deceptive forms is in the act of taking place to a federally protected consumer, beneficiary, debtor, and holder in due course pursuant to UCC 3-306. If your offices can provide the proper documentation as requested in the following Declaration, I will require at least 30 days to investigate this information, during which time all collection activity must cease and desist. Also, during this validation period, if any action is taken which could be considered detrimental to any of my credit reports, I will file for suit. This includes any listing of any information to a credit reporting repository that could be inaccurate or invalidated. If your office fails to respond to this validation request within 30 days from the date of your receipt, all references to these accounts must be deleted and completely removed from my credit file, if applicable, and a copy of such deletion request shall be sent to me immediately.

RE : acct XXXX I spoke with XXXX On XX/XX/2017 and agreed to do a pay and delete on an outstanding debt. As of XX/XX/2017 I paid the agreement amount of {$130.00}. However, since that time the debt still appears on my tradeline with all XXXX credit bureaus. I have spoken with several agents and supervisor and recently spoke with a manager named XXXX who on several occsians, most recently XX/XX/XXXX and XX/XX/XXXX who indicated information was sent to have the tradeline removed and yet it still appears. I was also advised on several times by the same manger that he would have a delete letter sent and its has now been two weeks and still no letter. Several phone agents advised that the same letter would be emailed, and still no letter. However the manager advised the letter could only be sent via mail. I have received nothing but conflicting information, and now that my debt has been paid they are refusing to remove the information from my tradeline. These collection agencies collect on accounts but then they do not honor the agreement. The requested documents are never sent and when you call, you are either disconnected or told there is nothing they can do. In my recent conversation with XXXX he advised that they would not contact the credit agencies and that he could not control the mailing time. He also indicated they would not be re-sending a letter. This collection agency has used false practices so that I could pay the debt. Now the debt is paid and still remains on my account and is still affecting my score, although it has been paid. I was told my the initial phone agent, several agents in between and the manager that the debt would be marked as paid and DELETED BUT NOTHING HAS BEEN DONE. Please assist me in getting this matter resolved and accept my complaint against the misrepresentation of this collection agency.

I.C. System is illegally reporting my private information to an uninterested third party/public agency without my authorization, and attempting to illegally collect a debt. I am requesting full deletion of the information being reported on my Consumer Report as well as the balance showing on any accounting ledgers associated with any derivation of my name which is my private DBA. Please make note of the following discrepancies I will litigate/enforce if this is not removed from all collection efforts and accounting ledgers : 1. The alleged obligation must be referred to the United States for collection of said obligation [ per 18 USC 8 ], not to me. 2. This reporting has not been permitted or ordered by any court, and is consequently being done in violation of [ 15 USC 1681b ]. Any agreements alleging to give permission to report or furnish a report are hereby rescinded for reason of a mistake being made under duress. 3. The debt collector has no wet ink signature of mine showing any agreement to any obligation to engage with me for any reason. They do not have permission to have acquired my location information or any other pieces of Personal Identification Information. Any alleged permission obtained by my signature is hereby rescinded for reason of a mistake being made under duress. I do not wish to contract with I.C. System for any reason and revoke any alleged or implied agreements made on my behalf without my knowledge or consent. 4. The This is an official notice to cease and desist collection and communication attempts, and a request to delete all of my information completely from their internal record keeping systems, and any reports made by them in whole, on all applicable Consumer Reports. Any failure to comply with this request will result in further Administration and Enforcement of federal regulation.

I called and told them and due to poor customer support, resulting in log wait times, outsourced foreign support representatives that had no ability to resolve my complaints. Each time I would explain the issues, it was like having to give a rudimentary class in English. Foreign representatives would need to transfer me to a the XXXX support, which was worse, and on the several occasions when I was able to talk to them, they failed to follow-up on anything that would cure this problem, or even returning my calls. It is my contention that XXXX could care less about fulfilling their contractual responsibilities. I had been left with no option but to transfer my phone service to XXXX mobile to resolve the problems. It is their failure to fulfill their contact obligations, and because of this breach of contract with XXXX I am disputing their charges in full, and further demanding payment for the phone lease in the amount of {$650.00} in return.

Hi, I am reaching out concerning the Debt trying to be collected by the IC Systems pertaining to XXXX XXXX XXXX. I have never owned XXXX XXXX XXXX services, I have only owned XXXX XXXX previously and transferred to XXXX for cheaper phone service. I haven't lived at the address XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX, NC XXXX in over two years. My previous addresses has been XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX, TX XXXX and XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, Florida XXXX XXXX XXXX My mother resides at XXXX XXXX XXXX, I believe that this was filed incorrectly. I called concerning the letter that was re-routed to me about the debt for {$340.00} to gain insight on what was going on. They mentioned that the internet router wasn't returned. Per my mother, she stated she called XXXX XXXX XXXX services to pick up the router and they informed her that they would send someone out to pick up the router. She stated that no one came to pick up the router. I called XXXX XXXX XXXX and asked if she could drop off the router at a local store but, they said she could no longer drop off the router and would have to speak to the debt collector and pay the fee. However, the fee is placed under my name and I am not the account holder associated with this company under this address. Due to miscommunication, it seems that my mother attempted to drop off the router and have someone scheduled to pick up the router but, due to misinformation it has been to sent to Debt Collectors and placed under my name. As mentioned, I have not lived in XXXX, North Carolina for over 2 years since have moved from the city and state. I will need this resolved immediately. Please have the removed from my name, credit, account, etc. I have never shared a relationship with XXXX XXXX XXXX I have only had services from two telecommunication services that do not include XXXX XXXX XXXX

XXXX has previously reported to XXXX through 2 other debt collectors, a {$590.00} debt that they claim I owe. As a customer of XXXX I called their customer service multiple times complaining about my cable and Internet frequently being out of service. Being a visiting nurse, having Internet access so that I can document and get paid was detrimental to my job in livelihood. After multiple attempts with my requesting assistance or remedy, I was treated rudely I XXXX even my bill was not adjusted. After continued unavailable access to the Internet and then ability to do my job, I was forced to go with a different provider. When I canceled XXXX tried to charge me {$590.00} fee, for canceling services yet they were not providing me with the service that I needed and or paid for. I successfully disputed their claim of this debt with XXXX debt XXXX twice before with XXXX, and successfully won my dispute and it was removed from my credit at that time. I.C. systems recently called and threatened to damage my credit and to continue to report to the credit bureaus every 90 days the {$590.00} debt. I.C Systems reported to XXXX and XXXX again last week and again refused to resolve the matter when I called them, with continued threats of harassment by reporting me to the credit bureaus. XXXX did not recognize the XXXX debt collector as being a previously disputed debt that was removed previously when I was reported on XX/XX/2021, and it is now being reported on my credit report with a 34 point drop in my score. I contacted XXXX again today regarding this issue and they said that they would be opening my dispute again and connecting this debt collector with the previously disputed XXXX debt. Debt collector such as IC systems should not be allowed to continue to harass people like myself, and Im requesting that they be investigated.

I had a rental unit with XXXX for over 4 years, paid every month. My wife and I got it when we moved out of state with the plan being to come back for our stuff. 4 years later we realized we did n't really need the stuff anymore so we called XXXX XXXX and asked them what our options were to get rid of the storage. They told us the only way without us coming to get the stuff was to let them auction it, so we did. This was in XXXX XXXX, auction was in XXXX XXXX. The deal was they would auction it then send us a bill for XXXX, XXXX and then a couple fees minus whatever it had got at auction, estimated to be {$540.00}. In XXXX XXXX I receive a letter in the mail from a collection agency saying that I owe NOT ONLY the XXXX that the storage came out to be but also {$160.00} additionally for them to collect this fee from me. That is extortion, charging me extra money on top of my actual debt or else reporting it to my credit. I NEVER EVEN RECEIVED A BILL FROM XXXX! Never! And not only did I not receive a bill but also the letter from the collection agency came within a couple weeks of my unit 's auction! So immediately I contacted XXXX via their " contact us '' web page. I have been back and forth with XXXX trying to sort this out since then and finally now XXXX XXXX, a manager from XXXX XXXX said he can sort it out for me and get my bill to be XXXX dollars as it should be. So today I call XXXX XXXX from the collection agency as XXXX XXXX told me to and the agency will not put me in contact with her. They wont let me talk to explain the situation. They are extremely rude and threatening. They tried to demand my phone number and other information and of course they wont just let me pay the XXXX as I owe. Hopefully XXXX XXXX can at least sort out the payment for me, but either way a complaint needs to be filed on these guys.

Approx. XX/XX/XXXX, XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, a collection agent for XXXX negatively affected my credit rating by reporting to the major credit bureaus an account balance for services sold by them in XXXX, IL allegedly to me. I disputed the debt at that time and that negative report was deleted. Then in XX/XX/XXXX, IC System, yet another collection agent for XXXX sent me a collection notice for the exact same debt. I denied that it was my debt or had anything to do with me and asked them to provide me with documentation verifying the debt which has not been forthcoming. I have never ever lived in XXXX, IL nor had any account with XXXX. IC System or XXXX never provided me with any proof that the item was my debt. I have never asked for services from XXXX, never lived in IL, never signed a work order of any kind and definitely will state that there is nothing in existence that XXXX can produce that will verify their alleged debt. What they sent me is attached and is not in fact " verification of the debt '' under the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act. It is merely a copy of an invoice made out in my name at the Illinois address. Once again, in violation of the Act, and in what I consider is attempted harassment and intimidation, XXXX through its agent has again negatively impacted my credit rating with the major credit bureaus by reporting this as a uncollectible bed debt under my name and social security number. My name is fairly common around the world. I have been a businessman in RI for at least three decades. I have multiple professional licenses in RI and NY and have an exceptional credit rating. I have nothing to do with this debt and XXXX and their various collection agents need to stop this practice of harassing and attempting to intimidate unrelated third parties without verifying their own facts first.

I C system is trying to collect a debt before providing me enough information. I first received a collection letter from the I C system around XX/XX/XXXX on behalf of XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX. However, I did not know I owed anything. After receiving the letter, I contacted the medical group and explained that I did not receive any bill from you. After doing some research, the representative found that they wrote my address wrong. Therefore, I did not receive any statements. The bill was about my son 's 1-year follow-up visit when he was XXXX old. Although we visited the doctor for my son when he was XXXX in XX/XX/XXXX, I was not aware that we had to pay any bills. Because when my son was born in XX/XX/XXXX, the hospital made a mistake, and as compensation, the hospital decided not to charge us any bills for my son. This follow-up visit was with the same doctor who had seen him when he was born and associated with the same hospital. Therefore, I assumed there would be no bills to pay, which was further affirmed when I did not receive any statement from them. However, it appeared that the medical group actually sent the invoice to the wrong address, and thus I never received the bill. When I received the collection letter from the I C system, I contacted the medical group. I asked whether I needed to pay the bill since we had a settlement with the hospital. The representative noted and took my cell phone number and address and promised to follow up after speaking to the hospital and other corresponding departments. However, I never received any call or follow-up mails from the medical group and the I C system. Now I found out that the I C system reported my bills to the credit bureaus instead of sending me another reminder letter. This is a very disappointing and unacceptable attitude from these two organizations!

I am writing to formally complain about an ongoing issue I am facing with IC Systems, a collections agency, and XXXX, one of the major credit reporting agencies. I have been diligently trying to resolve this matter, but have encountered significant difficulties, and I hope the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau can assist in resolving this issue. On XX/XX/2023, I made a payment directly to XXXX ( instead of the collections agency ) for an outstanding balance, as confirmed by my bank statement and receipt. This payment was intended to settle the debt in question with the company itself, not the collection agency. I have retained all relevant payment records as proof of this transaction. Spectrum assured me this would be removed from IC Systems hands, and it has not. Despite making this payment and having the necessary documentation, I was shocked to discover that IC Systems continues to report this debt on my XXXX credit report. This has adversely affected my credit score and financial standing, making it difficult for me to access financial products and services. I want to emphasize that I have taken the necessary steps to dispute this inaccurate information with XXXX. I submitted a dispute through the XXXX website, attaching all relevant documents, including proof of payment and a letter explaining the situation. However, I have not received any resolution or acknowledgment of my dispute from XXXX. I kindly request that the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau investigates this matter and intervenes on my behalf to ensure the accurate reporting of my credit information. I believe that the continued reporting of this debt is in direct violation of my consumer rights under the Fair Credit Reporting Act. I appreciate your prompt attention to this matter and your assistance in resolving this dispute.

I received a " Collection Notice '' from IC Systems ( who I'm sure you are familiar with by now ) trying to collect a balance of {$6600.00}, listing XXXX XXXX as the creditor. I have never been a XXXX XXXX customer ( I have always been an XXXX XXXX XXXX customer ) and never had an account, therefore I immediately knew this was a fraudulent notice. It is likely that IC System obtained my mailing address due to a recent online loan application I filed in order to refinance my home. ( I received other false pieces of communication from multiple companies requesting information following this online application. ) As a XXXX of XXXX and XXXX at the XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, I am well aware of these types of predatory practices. Yet, after a few XXXX searches on IC System it appears this company has been wreaking havoc on people for years. I was absolutely appalled to read through the discussion forums and posts from individuals who have shared their personal experiences trying to work with this company. I'm sure many of them, in reality, had no debt and were victims of vague language, and fear-based, predatory practices to coerce them to divulge personal information and payment. Many noted they paid their debts directly, assuming their debt was legitimate. When IC Systems lists creditors as companies like XXXX or XXXX, I'm sure the percentage of people who actually had those accounts in the past is very high ( and therefore they would be inclined to pay to protect their credit ). The companies uses scare tactics and preys on uneducated consumers who don't understand their rights or these scam marketing tactics. This is a clear violation of consumer rights under the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act ( FDCPA ), which prohibits debt collectors from using unfair or deceptive practices to collect from consumers.

To whom it may concern I have been having grief with the same companies over and over. I have disputed these debts on numerous occasions and yes they are removed but they are later reinserted, sold to another debt collection agency, with no update on my credit report or proof that I am the owner of these debts from XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX. They are damaging my credit and reputation substantially without any proof of original contract or signatures from me. The disputes are not even showing on my credit reports and I am aware that my reports should reflect that information. Nor have I received updates from my disputes or original time frame or contract from debt instead after the disputes these accounts are re-aging and that is completely illegal. Also following disputes it seems to me that they are reselling the accounts to someone else after showing removed and then opening again. In addition each time these inquiries are placed back on my credit report I have never received a 5 day reinsertion letter and if there is proof of such letter, please also send to my address. IF not this is yet another violation of thre FCRA section 611 ( a ) ( 5 ) ( B ) ( ii ), which states you are required to notify me in writing. I am asking for the last time for this agency furnish original contracts and proof and initial contract dates for all collection accounts they are claiming belongs to me. I will take further legal actions if these accounts are not removed. I have exhausted all my efforts with this company and the games they are playing or illegal. Please review all 3 credit reports to see the removals, re-insertions, and re-aging that is continually happening. I am really doing all I can to get my credit at a good standing but this is really impacting my credit. I was at XXXX and have received dramatic decreases.

In XX/XX/XXXX IC Systems Collections ( XXXX ) posted a notice of collection to my XX/XX/XXXX account stating that I was in collection for {$190.00} that they claimed as do to XX/XX/XXXX. I called and asked for back up information on the account and they just mailed me their invoice for the {$190.00} with no information on the origin of the debt. Then called XXXX to figure it out d try to resolve it. After several attempts to locate an account there on XX/XX/XXXX I spoke to a manager who after reviewing my file agreed that the charges were inaccurate ( they billed me for an additional month after I called to terminate service ) but claimed I owed them {$89.00} for a prorated amount that was declined by XXXX. The account was on autopay for nearly 2 years with no such incident, but I agreed t pay the {$89.00} in exchange for the promise that the collection agency would be notified, and the notice removed from my credit report. He agent informed me I could take as long as 30 days. The charge cleared my account on XX/XX/XXXX. In XX/XX/XXXX I was made aware that my XX/XX/XXXX credit report was not cleared of derogatory report. I called XXXX again on XX/XX/XXXX, and again was promised the situation was handled and that the collection agency has been informed that there is no unpaid debt to report. Since then, I have made 6 calls to XXXX with the last being XX/XX/XXXX after hearing XX/XX/XXXX had confirmed that IC Systems Collections confirmed the claim as valid on XX/XX/XXXX. The XXXX agent confirmed that on XX/XX/XXXX the notice went to IC Systems Collections that the claim was not valid. The agent promised I would hear from someone with XXXX XXXX XXXX withing 48 hours. A week has passed, and XXXX has not contacted me by phone or by mail and to my knowledge has made no attempt to correct the situation.

This complaint is for and against IC System # ********XXXX I was XXXX customer until XXXX. After using XXXX for over three years, XXXX starter to increased my rate when renewing contract, XXXX was charging me with taxes and for items I was never advised of therefor I had to terminate my contract with XXXX. I called XXXX customer service asked them to change my plan or to reduce my rate or modify my contract. I asked for my deposit I gave XXXX in order to get their service they said that did not qualify for the deposit to be returned because I did not make my payments on time for 12 month straight without being late therefore XXXX keep my deposit.

I've had this account since XX/XX/XXXX and have tried resolving it with several companies, the last is named IC System Inc. It's regarding XXXX demanding payment of an early termination fee in the amount of {$130.00}. I have asked that I be provided documentation of a two year agreement with XXXX, and as a result only received a copy of my last bill. Upon receipt of a " Collection Notice '' dated XX/XX/XXXX from ICS, I placed a call and spoke with XXXX XXXX about resolving the matter and my paying the amount owed {$180.00} ( minus the early termination fee ). On XX/XX/XXXX, I mailed check # XXXX with an attached letter stating my paying the balance " in full '' and would close my account. ICS returned the check stating XXXX refusal to accept the amount submitted. My account was then submitted to the credit bureau 's. I've disputed this debt with XXXX on two occasions because ICS nor XXXX has been able to provide any documentation indicating a two year agreement between XXXX and I. After receiving XXXX 's first letter ( XXXX XXXX ) stating, " the information you disputed has been verified as accurate '', I assumed they had recovered some form of agreement from XXXX, so I responded by letter asking them to provide me a copy their supporting document ( s ) which assisted in their decision. Again, I provided XXXX with a letter and supporting documents of all correspondence from all parties since this account began in XX/XX/XXXX : XXXX, ICS, XXXX XXXX and XXXX. The results from my request from XXXX was the same result, ruling in favor of ICS while not providing me any supporting documentation from their investigation. With all my attempts to resolve this matter, I think XXXX and XXXX has not offered proper due diligence in their investigation and is casually concluding their results.

their is a collection on my report from IC System stating I owe an XXXX XXXX. I mailed them directly disputing this in which they never responded and never reported the account being in dispute. The letter stated I received your communication/attempt to collect the above-listed alleged debt within 30 days ago. Please be advised that I hereby dispute the validity of the above-listed alleged debt in its entirety. I request verification/validation of the alleged debt and specifically request a copy of a contract or agreement signed by the alleged original creditor and all parties to any such contract provided. Note : a billing statement, notice, or any unsigned document is not verification of the alleged debt. You are on notice that you are unlawfully attempting to collect the above-listed alleged debt. Cease & desist all collection activity, including reporting to consumer reporting agencies ( CRAs ). Providing me the specific verification documents above shall not be deemed collection activity. Further, I request that you promptly delete any and all prior consumer reporting made to any CRAs. If you comply with my cease collection & deletion request, then you are excused from verification. If you opt to provide verification, also provide proof of the chain of title of ownership of the debt. If the alleged debt was acquired by a debt buyer, then proof of chain of title of the alleged debt must be from the alleged original creditor to the current alleged owner without any break in chain. This letter is evidence that may be provided to the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau ( CFPB ). The CFPB is authorized to fully investigate this matter and receive any information related thereto. Be advised, if you fail to comply with this letter, I may turn the matter over to a consumer attorney.

On Monday XX/XX/2020, I received a call from XXXX from rep XXXX XXXX with IC Systems. I was advised I owed a bill to XXXX XXXX. At that point, I advised them I was happy to return the phone to be credited to whatever bill may exist. Under the agency relationship, returning the phone to the client served to mitigate the collectors clients damages. As such, he had a legal duty to take the proposal to his client to accept the phone to mitigate the damages. The collector refused to even take the proposal to his client. Second, not only does XXXX have a duty to mitigate under the eyes of the law but I believe under the original contract it includes a clause that each party has a duty to mitigate. Because XXXX refused to accept the phone and provide an updated balance they are in breach of contract since both the law and the four corners of the contract stipulate each parties duty to mitigate damages. As a result, not only has XXXX threw its agent violated contracts law in general. They have also violated the Kansas Consumer Protection Act. As such, I am drafting a petition to file suit against IC Systems. Its also worth noting, IC Systems took no basic stamps in accordance to verify my identity like verify my date of birth of the last 4 of my social security number. IC Systems has a firm with over XXXX employees and revenues in excess of {$350.00} XXXX per year. Their choice to engage in aggressive, unconscionable, and illegal practices despite their having significant resources to conduct business within the bounds of the law is the exact kind of actions that will justify my request for punitive damages in the petition. Finally, they contacted me on my cell phone that I have had for less than 3 months and refused to provide me with where they located my phone number from.

The purpose of this complaint is to obtain a transcript of my account and or final billing of the last 90 days of the account that is in collection : I requested home phone service be disconnected XXXX XXXX. XXXX XXXX I requested internet service disconnected. I was told I owed {$100.00}. i was told i would receive a final bill within a few weeks that would show the exact amount owed since i did n't have service the full month of XXXX. XXXX XXXX i called XXXX sales department to start new service. i was told i was not eligible for service with them until i paid the final bill then I was transferred to customer service and paid old bill of {$100.00} then i scheduled new service installation XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX i noticed XXXX collection was on my credit report. i sent copies of my statement showing this was paid before the new service began and i have repeatedly requested a copy of the final bill which shows i owe an additional {$82.00}. i have called XXXX and requested a copy of the final bill. i have requested this from the credit bureau and from the collection agencies. i do not have bad credit besides a medical bill and the fact that i can not get this removed from my credit or marked as paid is bothersome. What is even more bothersome is that i keep asking for a copy of the final bill showing i still owe funds. i had XXXX for over XXXX years and they never ever allow your new bill to generate if the old bill has not been paid. My monthly bill was {$84.00} each month for phone and internet combined and this was auto debited from my account for years. Please request they remove this from my credit or send me the final bill as i have requested for over a year. They keep sending this to new collection agencies which is really causing my credit score to drop. Thank you.

Pursuant to my rights under the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act ( FDCPA ) as outlined in 15 USC 1692g, I am requesting verification of these alleged debts.

I hereby request that the Collection Agency provide me with the following documentation within 30 days of receiving this letter, as mandated by 15 USC 1692g : A complete itemized statement of the alleged debt, including all charges, fees, and interest applied to the account.

Please note that I expect all future communications regarding this matter to be in writing, as required by law.

I had a car accident in XX/XX/XXXX. All the medical bills were to be paid by my vehicle insurance policy to XXXX XXXX ( XXXX ). XXXX did not agree to the amounts paid by the insurance company and passed the debt onto me. XXXX owns the debt and placed the debt with IC Systems. IC Systems took the aggregate debt and broke it into six ( 6 ) separate collections on the same bill! IC Systems then began reporting these six ( 6 ) collections to the credit reporting agencies. IC Systems received a notice of dispute. DESPITE receiving a notice of dispute - IC Systems fraudulently represented to the credit bureaus that I was delinquent on the bill though the bill was disputed and the dispute shows on the credit bureaus as a disputed bill. IC Systems in ore top harm my credit - continues to fraudulently represent this bill is delinquent. Each time I apply for credit - IC Systems adds another delinquent notice into the credit bureaus to further harm my credit using abusive tactics. **IC System 's abusive tactics have real world economic impact. As a disabled veteran seeking a home loan - this impacted my ability to refinance my home during the COVID19 pandemic. Last year, I contacted XXXX as the current legal owner of the bill to tell them about the abusive tactics by IC Systems. I contacted XXXX by formal letter and by email. XXXX did not respond to the notice of dispute or complaint. I have included screenshots taken from the underwriting department of a mortgage company attempting to refinance my home - showing the abusive tactics of IC Systems fraudulently representing I am in a payment plan with reported delinquencies. A debt validation letter was sent to XXXX - as the owner of the debt - on XXXX XX/XX/XXXX. XXXX FAILED to respond to the debt validation letter.

Two years ago I rcvd a notice that I had a delinquent account and I was like that's not possible I called XXXX and they said we don't see that you are delinquent. So I disregarded the notice. When I then rcvd another one saying I was delinquent called back and gave them the account number on the notice and they found an account in my name for I believe XXXX dollars. I advised them that was not mine and that my real account with them has never been delinquent. They researched the account and found that it was a fraudulent account and deleted that account. About two months after that I started getting another delinquent notice from XXXX but this time is was for XXXX for a phone and a phone line. I called XXXX saying I rcvd another notice about another account in my name that was opened. When they researched it they stated that they would not remove it because the number associated with the fraudulent account called my real number. I told them how was I supposed to know that someone who obviously stole my info would call my number. The pretty much told me that I would need to research it myself to see who stole my info because its someone I know. The only thing they told me in regards to the fraudulent account is that someone went in one of the stores and opened the account and that they could not do nothing because it was a 3rd party authorize company. I told XXXX that they would still be liable because before a new phone line is opened they have to verify my identity by looking at my ID and this did not happen because they would have seen that this person was not me. To this day I still have my real account with XXXX but they are still holding me liable for letting someone open an account in my name

Out of the blue, XXXX sent me a bill for over {$400.00}, despite me having no business with XXXX for at least 6 months. I called XXXX and requested proof of debt. They responded by sending me another bill with late fees. I then sent them the first of four ( 4 ) CERTIFIED letters requesting proof or debt, itemized charges & copy of any agreement I signed. XXXX continued to send me bills with late fees but never responded nor sent me any proof of debt as required by law. After my 4th certified letter to them that was completely ignored, they sent my account to collections with IC systems. I called IC systems and requested proof of debt, itemized charges and a copy of any agreement I signed and they ignored me, just like XXXX. So at this point, both companies have violated the Fair Credit Reporting Act and have illegally sent my account to collections and damaged my credit. When I submit complaints with the credit reporting agency, they tell me that IC systems/Sprint confirmed the debt and they won't remove it from my credit report. However, they have refused and failed to confirm the debt with me. They have violated the FCRA and they are continuing to refuse to supply the information or remove the false claim from my report. At this point, they've had 6 different certified letters sent, to both XXXX and IC systems. They have blown me off for 2 years now and I demand this get removed. They completely failed to follow the FCRA and, as written in the act, the debt is invalid if they fail to comply with the FCRA and fail to provide me with the legally required information in a timely manner. I know nothing of this debt and at this point, both XXXX & IC systems have gone well past the timeframe legally spelled out in the FCRA, making this debt invalid.

I received a voice message in XX/XX/2020 from collection Agency, IC System. It took me about a week to follow up with them, due to Covid 19 issues, to determine who they were and contacted them via telephone. The agent indicated that said debt was from company XXXX, which an online search reveals they provided internet/cable services. I informed the agent that I have never done business with XXXX and that I believe this is identity theft as XXXX does not service the XXXX XXXX area. The agent asked me to contact some other telephone number, I did not, but did send them a letter asking for verifiable validation of the debt, on XX/XX/2020. The letter also stated that IC System was not to take any action, that would be detrimental to my credit report, but on XX/XX/2020, I received a notification from XXXX Credit reporting Agency, that there had been a change to my credit report. Upon review, there was a collection entry from IC System for the amount of {$440.00}. Subsequent, and in response to my letter that I sent them dated XX/XX/2020, I received a " collection notice '' from IC System, dated XX/XX/2020????. IC System took action that resulted in detriment to my credit history and credit score and because this debt is unverifiable and not validated, IC System violated the Fair Credit Reporting Act : Section 609 ( a ) ( 1 ) ( a ). They are required through the physical verification of the signed consumer contract - for all accounts you post on a credit report. They are in violation of law! In addition, while reviewing my accounts with XXXX and XXXX yesterday, they too received the same collection credit reporting from IC System. I am outraged that this collection agency can break the law, ruin your credit and have little to no repercussions. I am fighting back!

On Wednesday XX/XX/XXXX I received a notice from my XXXX XXXX account of a negative account from IC System inc. added. My credit reports and scores took a big impact from this account. I called IC System the next day and gave them my current address as I was asked for it to show proof of who I was. I was then notified the account was from XXXX. I contacted XXXX and was notified the account was opened on XX/XX/XXXX and closed on XX/XX/XXXX due to lack of payment. The address this account was attached to was an address I did not live at during the accounts life, I did live their prior but not during the account being open. I submitted paperwork and a police report to XXXX and was contacted by XXXX to complete a stolen identity packet. Today XX/XX/XXXX I received a collection notice from IC System inc. that was dated for XX/XX/XXXX, two days after I made contact with THEM. The notice said I have 30 days to file a dispute with them, only issue is, they already hit my account with this fraudulent account and are just now telling me I have the option to dispute the account. They are affecting my financial future and asking questions later. As far as I know, I am supposed to be given 90-180 days of my first notice before they attach this to my credit report. Why did it take them 13 months after the fraudulent account closed to make contact with me? I feel as though this company is responsible for this scam. I never received contact from them until I gave them my current address and this account didnt hit my report until 13 months after the account was closed. 90-180 days is 3-6 months, not 13 months. Something doesnt add up and IC System inc. is no help. I am not the only one who has had these issues with this company. They should be closed due to scamming many others.

I.C Systems sent me a letter trying to collect a debt from XXXX, stating that I did not return a piece of equipment. When I closed my XXXX account I brought both pieces of equipment as directed by XXXX to XXXX on XXXX XXXX XXXX, in XXXX XXXX XXXX FL on XX/XX/XXXX, I received a receipt, however over a year later I am unable to locate that receipt. When I received the letter from IC Systems I called them on XX/XX/2022 and spoke to XXXX XXXX # XXXX, and she told me to dispute the collection I had to send in a written request. I sent the written request that day on XX/XX/2022. I then called in on XX/XX/2022 and spoke to XXXX XXXX XXXX # XXXX and he told me the account has already been disputed and the letter was not received yet. I then called in today XX/XX/2022 and asked if the letter had been received. XXXX XXXX XXXX # XXXX informed the letter was received today XX/XX/2022, 34 days after I sent it. I asked XXXX XXXX when the file was disputed and she told me it was disputed on XX/XX/2022. She told they had 60 days. I informed her the creditor has 30 days from the time of the dispute to validate the collection or it could not be placed on my credit report. XXXX then transferred me to a supervisor, XXXX XXXX # XXXX and he told me that we just received the letter today and that they had an additional 30 days. I argued that, XXXX screwed up by filing the dispute on my original call on XX/XX/2022 and started the 30 collection verification clock. 30 days has already passed and the collection has not been validated and they can not put this collection on my credit report. He seemed unaware of the timelines required to validate a collection and said they had more time. He then told me that this was all of the information that they could give me and ended the call.

Debt Collection Agency : I.C. SYSTEM, INC I NEVER heard of this company before, but I know their kind because I have been living in this nightmare for about 3 years. So an XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX account was opened and closed promptly in my name but in a different state. Of course, I had no knowledge of it until someone dinged my pristine credit rating over and over again, resulting in a significant decline in my XXXX XXXX. To make the long story short, when I called XXXX XXXX XXXX did not even have a record of any account based on my information. But somehow, the original creditor is XXXX XXXX XXXX. Fortunately, my XXXX XXXX was restored after reporting that it was a fraud. I was so wrong! You see, these debt collection agencies sell the debt to " other '' collection agencies when they are not able to collect it. And promptly, without any notice, they would ding my credit ( some companies ding me more than 4 times a month ). And that charade continues while the victim ( that is me ) is helpless in doing anything. The credit bureau doesn't help ( XXXX ) because they said I need documents, but I don't have any and can't get any from those collection agencies. They just have my information, the amount of debt, and the POWER to ding my credit anytime they choose to do. It's about {$400.00}, and there is no way I would pay even a dime for such evil companies. Now, my credit score went down by more than XXXX points within a month because this company dinged me twice, I have to go through all these useless and unsuccessful steps once again to mitigate this situation. And XXXX XXXX wants me to file a fraud report to ftc.gov and send subsequent documents to them before they can " restore '' my credit score. Hope no one goes through what I am going through.

As a third-party intervener this company has negatively impacted me as a consumer. Pursuant to federal law They have committed fraud and several violations of the FDCPA and TILA. They are now threatening me for an alleged debt that they claim I owe. I never received a Material Disclosure of any of the information that was supposed to be provided to me. they have taken an unfair advantage of me as a consumer, and they should be held accountable for deceiving me and not validating the debt. They have not validated anything ; they have ruined my character and general reputation by reporting erroneous information on my consumer report and included a symbol on the contents of the envelope for the mail courier or any person affiliated with the postal service or comes in contact with the envelope that alleges I owe a debt. Theyve act as if they are unaware of what I am requesting or that the law does not apply to them and I've included evidence and proof, pursuant to federal law with facts that prove that the law does apply to them and that they must adhere to them. They have not provided me with any original documents, and they have disregarded the law by saying, they do not have to provide me with anything except billing statements or applications, which is not proof of validation or proof that I owe anything. They are also claiming that they must report information to the credit bureaus, however cfpb handbook 3.1.1 furnishers incentives and decentives states- reporting to credit bureaus and other consumer agencies by creditors is voluntary and historically has been. Furnishers have multiple incentives to contribute data to NCRA one of which is for borrowers to make timely repayments. Their willful non-compliance has damaged my reputation as well as my credit file

The IC systems company has taken longer than 30 to resolve or respond to a dispute on my credit report causing me to look as if I am not responsible. This debt is from XXXX which is past the statute of limitation to report. I have been fixing my credit for 8 months and this company come and puts this information on my report as an open account. That is a false statement and a violation of the FCRA. IC systems and XXXX are playing the blame game with saying that they reported it to the bureaus to take it off and the informaation would be sent back to the original creditor. Well that never happened. I had plans to get a vehicle for the summer and got denied credit due to this erroneous informaation being reported and now I have lost points and credibility. My integrity and my character has been blemished due to the negligence of this company. I spoke to XXXX on Friday XXXX XXXX and he stated that there will be a letter sent to XXXX to update the information and the account should be removed. It has not been done til this XXXX day of XXXX. There were 2 accounts that were charged off and were reported as open accounts. This has caused me grief during the pandemic crisis. I have worked so hard to get my credit in good standings and for this company decides to put erroneous information on my report and now my rates are shooting out the roof with high interest rates. I am paying more my mortgage than I have to due to my credit score being lower than it suppose to be. I lost total of XXXX points for the negligence of this company, I want this company and XXXX to pay for the damages for my pain and suffering. I spoke to XXXX and they stated that they never recieved notification to remove this account. At this point I have lost time that I can not get back.

IC System is reporting a debt of {$380.00} from XXXX under my name to XXXX credit reporting agencies -- XXXX, XXXX, XXXX. Unaware of such an account, I requested that IC System send me specific information pertaining to this debt under Texas XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX ( see attached letter XXXX. According to XXXX XXXX, when requested, a debt collection agency or credit bureau must provide the alleged debtor with specific validation information concerning their alleged debt within XXXX calendar days. The debt validation request was mailed via XXXX Certified Mail with Return Receipt on XX/XX/2016 and received by IC System on XX/XX/2016. IC System has been given more than XXXX calendar days to provide a timely response, but has failed to respond at all. Per XXXX XXXX XXXX d ) ( XXXX ), failure to respond to the request within XXXX calendar days, or failure to validate the debt, requires IC System to delete their tradeline from all credit reporting agencies. In addition, since receiving a request for validation, IC System has submitted a " XXXX '' remark to the credit reporting agencies ; an action that I did not request. I merely requested more information about an alleged debt, which is fundamentally different from disputing such debt. IC System took it upon themselves to report a dispute that I did not request. IC System is not only attempting to collect a debt that they can not or have not validated, but their collection practice is irresponsible. This feels like a bullying tactic to ( XXXX ) make a person feel guilty about requesting more information, and ( XXXX ) indirectly provide that person with the negative consequences of having a dispute remark on their credit reports, such as the potential ability to obtain future credit or loans.

I became aware of a negative knock on my credit in 2020 by a debt collector credence collection. They instructed me to contact XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX to resolve issue. I contacted them and they explained to me that they were looking for a XXXX somebody at at XXXX XXXX somewhere. I have no idea who this person is nor do I know or have ever lived on XXXX XXXX XXXX I told them it was fraud. I then got back in touch with XXXX to explain the same. I then contacted the social security office to let them know my information had been taken to create an account for XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX After many calls it was eventually removed from my credit. Until naturally right before Im going to purchase a house it popped back up. This time instead of XXXX XXXX it was under XXXXXXXX XXXX. So I was back to the same thing. I contacted XXXXXXXX XXXX they wanted me to pay the debt to have it removed when I explained it wasnt mine I told them I couldnt do that out of principle. They did tell me I could talk to XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX So I did again. This time doing it online. But in hoping to speed the process up I hired the national debt lawyers at XXXXXXXX XXXX After 3 months this issue was again resolved and off my credit. Until this month. Now its not XXXX nor XXXX its IC systems collecting the same amount looking for the same person at the same address neither of which I know. I filed a dispute with XXXX and called a dispute with XXXX. XXXX denied my dispute transunion said they would resolve it. XXXX site advised me to call the debt collector. I called IC systems and they asked for XXXX. After I told them I have no idea who that is, explained the whole situation they said they could no longer talk to me and I needed to submit my information here. So here we are.

I filed a complaint with the CFPB about XXXX unlawfully, illegally, and without written consent from me the consumer reporting derogatory items on my credit report. I filed this complaint on XX/XX/. I received a response that XXXX was " investigating ''. I did not request an investigation, I requested immediate deletion due to no written consent from the consumer and inaccuracy. XXXX also responded that during their investigation they contacted a " data furnisher '' to verify the accuracy of the account. I am reporting XXXX, this is not only illegal this is unethical and not the proper way to validate any alleged debts. I am the consumer, I am the only person that can verify the validity of an alleged debt. XXXX illegally reached out to a third party in order to verify information about me the consumer and did not once reach out to me to confirm or deny the validity of these alleged accounts. Any person claiming I owe this debt without my knowledge or including me in the conversation is violating my rights to privacy as a consumer. XXXX also responded that they've updated aspects of the account which is also illegal. I did not now nor ever give XXXX permission to put false, inaccurate, and financially degrading information about me on their reporting platform. I also received feedback from XXXX that one of the accounts that I disputed would be deleted and that account is still reporting on my credit report despite them claiming they deleted it off my report. This has effected my mental and emotional well being, in addition this is directly negatively impacting my livelihood and creditworthiness. I'm trying to resolve this amicably before bringing the courts into this because then I will be seeking {$1000.00} in damages for each violation.

On XX/XX/2020 I placed an online order with XXXX XXXX XXXX for some XXXX accessories totaling {$810.00}. These parts seemed to be in stock. XXXX XXXX charged my credit card immediately but failed to ship my order. On XX/XX/2020 I requested XXXX XXXX cancel my order and refund my money. After not hearing back for several days, I filed a dispute with my Credit Card Company. On XX/XX/2020 after receiving notice of the dispute, I received an email from XXXX XXXX confirming the order cancelation. On XX/XX/2020, I received a threatening COLLECTIONS email from XXXX XXXX. This time they accused me of Cyber Theft. Apparently, two days after I filed the dispute and they indicated they canceled the order, XXXX XXXX shipped a package to the wrong address and that package is now lost. On XX/XX/2020, XXXX XXXX XXXX, with knowledge and intent, used my credit card information obtained from the XX/XX/2020 order, to illegally and fraudulently charge my XXXX Visa Card a second time. Further, they set this charge up as recurring so as to cause as much financial damage as possible. Because of XXXX XXXX actions, I had no other choice but to completely close my credit card and reopen a new card disrupting all of my recurring payments with other companies. Even though I won the credit card dispute and never received my order, XXXX XXXX turned me into collections. Shortly after I began receiving calls from ICSystem claiming I have unpaid debt in the amount of {$810.00}. I've sent ICSystem proof that the order had been canceled and indicated that I did not receive the shipment, they tell me that there is nothing they can do because their client ( XXXX XXXX XXXX ) insists that I owe the debt and therefore they intend to report this debt to the credit bureaus.

I hope this letter finds you well. I am writing to raise an important issue that pertains to the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ). Under the provisions of the FCRA, specifically 15 USC 1681 section 602 a, there exists a crucial need to ensure that consumer reporting agencies, such as XXXX and XXXX, fulfill their obligations with utmost fairness, impartiality, and respect for consumers ' right to privacy. However, it has come to my attention that certain actions undertaken by these consumer reporting agencies may be in violation of the aforementioned principles. This is deeply concerning and raises questions about their commitment to upholding the rights of consumers. Given the importance of consumer reporting agencies in maintaining accurate credit information and protecting individuals ' privacy, it is crucial that appropriate measures are taken to address any potential breaches or misconduct. I kindly request that you thoroughly investigate the practices of XXXX and XXXX to ensure compliance with the FCRA. It is imperative that these companies fulfill their responsibilities in a manner that prioritizes the rights and interests of consumers. I appreciate your attention to this matter and your efforts in holding consumer reporting agencies accountable. I trust that you will take the necessary steps to address these concerns and maintain the integrity of the credit reporting system. I am writing to bring to your attention a matter of utmost concern, which involves a violation of the law. As per the provisions of the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), specifically 15 U.S. Code 1681s2 ( A ) ( 1 ), it is unlawful for any person to provide inaccurate information about a consumer to any consumer reporting agency, if they have

I do not have a signed contract nor any contract with I.C.Systems. I have never done business with this company. I am not liable for collection from this debt from I.C. Systems. I am not responsible for this debt with I.C. Systems. I demand request be in the form of a verified statement by a person with original knowledge of the debt, who can testify that the debt was incurred legally, was not subsequently disputed as a result of returned, fault, or recalled consumer product, was not utilized as a profit-loss tax deduction during the period it may have been payable, and was not claims as a loss with any insuring entity during the period it may have been payable. Reporting inaccurate and unsubstantiated information to a credit reporting agency may constitute fraud under federal law. The law is very clear as to the Civil liability and remedy available to me for " negligent noncompliance '' ( Section 617 ) if you fail to comply with this Federal Law. I am a litigious consumer and following accounts be validated immediately. A copy of this complaint will be sent to you by certified mail with proof of delivery and will also become part of a formal complaint to the Better Business Bureau. Please be advised that I am requesting competent evidence that I had some contractual obligation in relation to the trade line. They will also be submitted as evidence in pending litigation provided you fail to comply with this complaint. Once again, the law is very clear as to the civil liability and the remedy available to me ( Section 616 & 617 ) if you fail to comply with Federal Law. I intend on pursuing litigation in this matter to enforce my rights under the FCRA. ( Hence this company is not licensed in the State of Florida to collect on ANY debt. )

I pulled my XXXX credit report and noticed they have 3 variations of my name and 2 of them are spelled incorrectly. I sent a letter to have them update my information to show my correct name and address and to remove all other variations. I received a response to go track down whoever is reporting these incorrect names & addresses. As a credit reporting agency they are suppose to validate that the information they are reporting is correct. If they are allowing someone to report on my credit report an incorrect name and address they are putting me at risk for identity fraud. The other credit reporting companies had no problem updating my information and removing all others. I am not going to chase down 2 companies to find out who is reporting my information incorrectly. If they are receiving information for my credit file that does not have my correct information than that is not my debt. It is their responsibility to make sure its correct. They should be updating my information to reflect what is true and correct so I can not be liable for a debt that is not mine, so I am protected from identity theft. As a credit reporting agency it is their duty to validate and make sure the information they are receiving is valid, verified, and make sure that it belongs to me. Not just take anyone 's word and post whatever someone reports to them. I want all my information updated, corrected and all other variations removed. They are putting me at risk, they are hurting me and my credit report, they are allowing things to be reported that may not be mine if its not my information. I have one name given at birth, I have one birth date, I have one address that is deliverable by the United States Postal Service. Please help me to get this fixed.

The explanation from the tech department the speed was a result of being too far from the hub ( an admission that the speed promised could never be achieved and should have never been billed for ). This was a false statement discovered on further investigation that the modems size of packets had been reduced 50 % from the machine capability. 5. The equipment was returned prior to the billing cycle. Thus, services were not rendered. The matter seemed to be dropped when no other correspondence being made after that. Now a new collection company appeared in XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX. They were trying to collect a monthly service that was easy to show it was paid. They, I.C. System Inc., ignored blatant proof there was no debt owed and proceeded to file a ding on my credit reports.

I was notified of a debt by IC Systems and contacted them XXXX of XXXX. I did not have the full balance owed of XXXX, but I was able to set up a payment plan where they would withdraw {$100.00} on XX/XX/XXXX and withdraw {$50.00} every month on the XXXX for 8 months, and then pay the remaining balance of XXXX on XX/XX/XXXX. I also inquired about making additional payments to lower the final payment which they told my I needed to call in to do so. Additionally, I was told that as long as a did the payment plan and had it paid off by XX/XX/XXXX they would not report it as a collections account to the credit bureaus. I made two additional payments : on XX/XX/XXXX for {$50.00} and XX/XX/XXXX for XXXX. This brought my final payment to {$200.00} on XX/XX/XXXX. Both times, I called to make the additional payments I confirmed that the final payment set up on XX/XX/XXXX would pay off the loan. Both times, the representative told me it would. The final payment of {$200.00} was paid successfully on XX/XX/XXXX. The account was paid in full. However, on XX/XX/XXXX I received a credit monitoring alert on my phone. When I checked my credit report, it showed a new collections account from ICS was added on XX/XX/XXXX. I pulled up my IC Systems account on XX/XX/XXXX and it showed I still had a balance of XXXX. This is completely inaccurate. I attempted to contact IC Systems and I was unable to reach a person. The phone would ring. It would say no one is available and ask if I wanted to leave a voicemail. When I attempted to leave a voicemail it said the box was full and hung up. This is horrible debit collection practices and I expect this to be resolved immediately. I paid the account in full and should not have to go through this mess.

Back in XXXX I found a collections reported to my credit report on behalf of XXXX. The debt was mine and I took the necessary steps to pay in full which included a past due balance as well as returning equipment directly to spectrum in person. This happened in XXXX of 2020. I then called and informed IC Systems that the debt had been paid and I asked what was needed to do to get this removed. They stated that if I mailed copies of my paid receipts they would have it deleted. The paperwork was mailed and I waited at least a month to call to give them ample time. I called to confirm they received it and why it was still showing as a debt. They confirmed they had copies of the receipts but they needed to get confirmation from XXXX themselves from their collections department that it was now being reported as XXXX debt. I called XXXX explained the situation and they flagged my account so that it was pushed through AGAIN to report to IC Systems that it had been paid as they had already done. Another month or so goes by and I call IC Systems because it is again showing on my credit report and they refuse to update their balance in their system even after I sent receipts. The representative then tells me I now have to send copies of my personal bank account info showing the payment went through because I could have reversed the payment. After several calls and almost 9 months later they still refuse to update their records even after both XXXX and I personally have shown them proof. They have yet to help or try to resolve this issue only giving me more hoops to jump through for a {$350.00} debt. This is unacceptable especially when I have receipts including chat conversations with a XXXX representative. Please resolve this.

XX/XX/2020 I received an alert from the credit bureau advising me that a collection had been placed with my account with IC Systems. I immediately found the name of the medical group that sent IC Systems the account and made the payment directly with them. The payment was made with XXXX XXXX XXXX on XX/XX/2020 in the amount of {$120.00} 9 ( confirmation # XXXX ). I called IC Systems on XX/XX/2020 and asked them to remove the collection off of my report because the account was not settled with them. It was settled directly with the XXXX XXXX so they didn't need to be reporting a collection anymore. I provided them with all of the information ( date payment was made, the amount, and confirmation number ). I called them again on XX/XX/2020 to see if this had been resolved and they stated that it still remained and was waiting on XXXX. I called XXXX and advised them that the collection company was still reporting a debt and that they needed to contact them to remove it. They advised they would send the needed information to IC to have them pull the account from the credit bureau. Yesterday XX/XX/2020, I received an alert stating that IC System not only hasn't removed their account on my credit report but they updated the payment status to paid/improved. So they made an update with the credit bureau but did not REMOVE the account. I did NOT pay them I pay the medical group directly and owed no balance with IC. XXXX removed from credit report on XX/XX/2020 when I showed proof of payment directly with the medical group and they removed the very same day. XXXX will NOT remove this from my credit report even with proof. This is shady as XXXX and I'm really irritated. It's affecting my credit score and need to be REMOVED.

I previously filed a complaint on XXXX/XXXX/2022 with the CFPB against IC SYSTEM that was closed without any attempt of an investigation into the matter at hand. This organization violated federal law and continue to ignore any actions that are taken by me. Its been 29 days and I have not received a single piece of mail from IC SYSTEM and I do not understand how or why this is allowed to happen. IC SYSTEM posted an unverified collection to my credit without allowing me the opportunity to dispute the debt. Violations that occurred are as follows : 15 U.S. Code 1692g ( a ) Notice of debt 15 U.S. Code 1692g ( a ) ( 1 ) the amount of the debt ; 15 U.S. Code 1692g ( a ) ( 2 ) the name of the creditor to whom the debt is owed ; 15 U.S. Code 1692g ( a ) ( 3 ) a statement that unless the consumer, within thirty days after receipt of the notice, disputes the validity of the debt, or any portion thereof, the debt will be assumed to be valid by the debt collector ; 15 U.S. Code 1692g ( a ) ( 4 ) a statement that if the consumer notifies the debt collector in writing within the thirty-day period that the debt, or any portion thereof, is disputed, the debt collector will obtain verification of the debt or a copy of a judgment against the consumer and a copy of such verification or judgment will be mailed to the consumer by the debt collector ; 15 U.S. Code 1692g ( a ) ( 5 ) a statement that, upon the consumers written request within the thirty-day period, the debt collector will provide the consumer with the name and address of the original creditor, if different from the current creditor. 15 U.S. Code 1692g ( b ) Disputed debts 15 U.S. Code 1692g ( c ) Admission of liability 15 U.S. Code 1692g ( e ) Notice provisions

I noticed a collection account on my XXXX credit report that does not belong to me. The account name and/or collection agency is I C System Inc. The original creditor is XXXX XXXX account # XXXX. Date opened XX/XX/2021. The collection shows {$310.00} past due as of XX/XX/2021. I have never had an account with XXXX XXXX so I immediately contacted XXXX in an attempt to correct the error directly. XXXX was unable to locate an account for me as I am not a customer. I filed a dispute with XXXX on XX/XX/2021. I received communication from XXXX on XX/XX/2021 advising my dispute had been completed. Unfortunately, XXXX did not remove the collection from my credit report. I then contacted the collection agency, I C System Inc., on XX/XX/2021, to try and get additional information as they are the agency that reported the collection. I C System was also unable to locate me as a customer in their system. The representative searched for me by name, address/state, and social security number ; however, she could not locate a collection and stated it was clear there was an error in reporting. She advised me to contact XXXX again about the issue. I spoke with a representative at XXXX on XX/XX/2021. I went through the entire process again, and advised neither the original creditor nor the collections agency is able to locate me as a customer. He stated I needed to file a complaint with the Consumer Protection Bureau which is where I am now. I would like to have this issue resolved as soon as possible as it is negatively affecting my credit score. I do not have alot of information about the actual account and/or collection as I have never had an account with XXXX XXXX. Please contact me if you need additional information.

I canceled my cell phone bill with XXXX XXXX on XX/XX/XXXX, my last payment was for {$150.00}. I utilize a credit tracking service, which is how I was notified ofan outstanding bill of {$700.00} for the phone. I never received any notification from XXXX. When I called in they directed me to IC systems, the collection agency. A gentleman stated {$700.00} was due and showed an incorrect address of : XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX md XXXX. Unfortunately that is the address of my deceased grandmother and I have not lived at that location for over 2 years. XXXX has never emailed me, after failing to get in touch with me, and they have confirmed the email on file is correct. Despite no one reaching out to me, I called XX/XX/XXXX and paid the bill in full. The confirmation number for that payment is XXXX. I then called XXXX and spoke to XXXX in the collections department, she confirmed the wrong address on file and no additional addresses. After using XXXX for TV and internet, and having all my bills sent to the correct address, it is puzzling that it would be incorrect in the collections department and then incorrectly sent to the collections agency. Upon my request to cancel service, I was NOT informed the final bill would be mailed, nor did the agent confirm the correct mailing address. I have been emailed all other bills for this cellphone line by XXXX, and my XXXX TV and internet bills were mailed to the correct mailing address. I am saying this to say, XXXX as a company has the correct address associated with me somewhere in their system, they just didnt look hard enough. I have more than upheld my end as the customer, by paying all of my bills, but the service I have received from XXXX has been unacceptable.

I went to XXXX XXXX ( aka XXXX XXXX ) in XX/XX/XXXX/ XXXX XXXX. First I went for XXXX & then I went for doctor 's visit/ XXXX. I paid for both visits in XX/XX/XXXX. I have receipts for the visit - printed & credit card tape. In XXXX XXXX I started receiving calls from a collection agency. I provided copies of the receipts from the payment as well as a copy of my bank statement with the money coming out of my account. The collection agency said they could not stop calling me until the office told them to stop calling me. I sent the receipts and a letter of complaint to the doctors office and I fired my XXXX that I had been going to for approximately XXXX years because I had recurring billing problems with them in XX/XX/XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX & XX/XX/XXXX. They did not acknowledge the letter or the receipts. They did not call off the collection agency. However, I know that they did receive the letter and receipts because when I went to my new XXXX this year, instead of sending my medical records that I requested and paid $ XXXX- {$25.00} for them to send, they sent a copy of my letter of complaint and my receipts. I do not recall the specifics of the issue with the XX/XX/XXXX bill. I have been remiss about checking my credit. I think they charged an old insurance instead of a current one. However, I thought it was resolved long before my appointment in XX/XX/XXXX. Additionally it did not show up as a previous balance on my invoice for XX/XX/XXXX. How do I get them to resolve this? Note : I do not have the copies of the invoice & receipt with me. I would like to opportunity to upload them later even though they already have them. I did upload my bank statement that shows the money coming out of my account.

This letter is sent in response to collection that was placed on my account and that has inaccurate information. I am requesting that you provide verification of this debt. As I have proves that this account was settled with the previous collection agency and then sold to you and if I believe that is against the law. Please send the following information : The name and address of the original creditor, the account number, and the amount owed. Verification that there is a valid basis for claiming I am required to pay the current amount owed. Details about the age and amount of the debt including a copy of the last billing statement from the original creditor ; a detailed explanation of any interest added or payments made since the last billing statement and the legal authorization for this interest ; the date the original creditor claims this debt became delinquent and a written explanation why it was sold to you from XXXX collection agency. What you provided in the previous dispute was just a bill which doesnt prove anything. Please also note whether this debt is within the statute of limitations and how that was determined. Please also forward details about your authority to collect this debt : whether you are licensed in my state and if so provide the date of the license, name on the license, license number, and the license number, and the name, address and telephone number of the state agency issuing the license. If you are contacting me from outside my state, provide the licensing information from your state as well. By law you are required to provide me with all the information requested if you can not do so you will have to delete this from my credit history. Sincerely, XXXX XXXX

I could n't find another appropriate option. The debt was not paid ; the debt is/was not owed. XXXX overcharges for data services and I had only XXXX cellular phone account with only XXXX cellular phone but they would claim that my bill exceeded $ 300 monthly, which is outrageous. They falsely advertise an unlimited data plan. I was at my wit ' send and disputed the validity of the purported enormous balance. I canceled my service and they retained my deposit of {$400.00}. They have yet to properly handle my bill disputes. In fact, they have willfully ignored my correspondence disputing the purported balance. Today I received notification that they have reported a debt owed of {$780.00} to the credit bureaus which is a direct violation of the Fair Credit Reporting Act. The bill is at best under dispute for overcharging with XXXX directly. To report it as a valid debt that has not been under claims is effectually premature. I have no negative collection accounts and their report to the credit bureaus has resulted in denial of credit today. I demand that they are enjoined to immediately remove the reported collection account from all XXXX bureaus and correct the excessively high bill. They have been found liable for unfair business practice of overcharging for data and this is exactly what they are doing to me. I only had XXXX account, XXXX phone, and the phone was NOT on an installment plan. I owe no balance for the XXXX XXXX, and I owe no balance for the cellular account. If they were to process my innumerable billing claims and correct the bill, a XXXX balance account will be the result, especially considered that they remain in possession of the {$400.00} I deposited with them to start service.

Hello, I recently ran my credit report with XXXX and discovered a collection item from I.C. Systems, Inc in the amount of {$400.00} from XXXX XXXX. I researched my bank statements and did not see any charges in relations to I.C. Systems, Inc. I.C . Systems, Inc is causing emotional harm to my reputation and acting negligent to provide inaccurate information publicly to the credit bureaus. I never had a direct business relationship with this company and I would like to see the actual written contract and whatever supportive documents that obligates me to this alleged debt presented to me in a timely manner. If I.C. Systems, Inc has a clear copy of my driver license. They should submit that as evidence to support this alleged debt. I understand there is a verification process with the credit bureaus. Which is automated and not really 100 % accurate most times with the credit bureaus. I will follow up on my end with the credit bureaus and dispute this alleged debt and ask for the proper documentation that relates to this matter. Throughout the process of this investigation I would like to request an audit on the record keeping of process for I. C. Systems, Inc. I want to make sure that they are adhering to State of Texas and Federal laws. I have done my research on this particular company and noticed the past and present federal lawsuits in relation to violations of the Fair Debt Collections Practice Act. I hope that a positive resolution will result from my direct communication in regards to this alleged debt. I.C. Systems have XXXX days to respond to this request of verification and forward all required requested documents via US Certified Mail. Thank you for your time, XXXX XXXX

Dear XXXX I am an American living in XXXX. I moved here in XX/XX/XXXX. I have not visited US since that day. I received a letter, enclosed from I.C. System Inc, which purports that I have an outstanding debt of XXXX dollars for XXXX XXXX and have not paid this since XX/XX/XXXX. It was sent to an address in XXXX XXXX, Texas, belonging to my aunt, whose address I have given ONLY one company, XXXX XXXX Mortgage, since they needed a US address to process my XXXX mortgage modification, and would not allow me to use my XXXX address. I use my XXXX address with my credit card and checking account, also with XXXX XXXX. My issue is this : I used to use XXXX for my cell phone and XXXX needs since the year XXXX until I left the US to XXXX in XXXX XXXX. I have since used a XXXX provider for my data and XXXX needs. Second, XXXX XXXX does not sound like a real company, they are trying to impersonate XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, which as you can see is spelt differently. Lastly, I have seen IS Systems is a XXXX XXXX, MN based collection agency, but I am not sure if the letter is sent to me by that company and I am afraid to contact them and give them any of my personally identifiable information for fear it is identify theft. I am requesting that the CFPB verify if this is a real communication from IC System , Inc and why this was sent to my aunts address in Texas, when this is not information available to anyone else but XXXX XXXX Mortgage. I believe CFPB must investigate IC Systems, and XXXX XXXX as it would seem that XXXX XXXX has in some way given my personal information to someone who is now using this infromation to either get XXXX dollars from me or get into my personal accounts or both. Thank you

On XX/XX/, IC SYSTEM INC, XXXX XXXX XXXX , XXXX XXXX MN XXXX, XXXX, pulled my XXXX credit report as a Hard Inquiry. I received notification of this through my credit monitoring software. I immediately called IC SYSTEM INC and they told me they had no idea who I was and why they pulled my credit. The Rep hung up on me. I called back to talk to a different Rep. I was told the same thing. Both times I was told they did NOT know who I was after taking all of my personal info, DOB - SSN - Address - Email - Previous Address - etc, they found nothing. I called back again and spent another 45 minutes on the phone with a different Rep. Again having to provide ALL my personal info, only to be told... they can not find me. At this point I was able to talk to a Supervisor who - after " running me '' AGAIN, admitted he could not " find me '' and had " no idea '' why my info was pulled. I asked him to provide me a letter stating that, and he denied that request because " I still could be in there ''. He referred me to " XXXX and XXXX '' and I emailed XXXX at her request after I was able to speak with her. The email was sent to ConsumerAffairs@icsystem.com on Sat, XX/XX/XXXX, XXXX. She said : " Dear XXXX XXXX : Despite our best efforts we have been unable to identify any account in our system that matches the information provided. Our recommendation is that you dispute the inquiry with your credit bureau. That will require the credit bureaus to contact IC System to verify the inquiry. This communication is from a debt collector. Sincerely, Consumer Affairs XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, MN XXXX I called XXXX and they said I had to have IC SYSTEM contact them to remove it.

I received a bill for a medical debt that was supposed to be under review with my insurance. I was charged OUT OF NETWORK for an intensive care unit trip that I HAD NO ABILITY TO CHOOSE where to go. They took me to XXXX XXXX. I am a full time employee for the XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX. I was found XXXX and the ambulance took me to the closest XXXX ( which at the time president trump had already signed the no surprise billing act but the date it went into effect is unclear ) I was brought to the XXXX XXXX XXXX and after becoming XXXX with my family there, I asked to be sent to thXXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX. I was stable, clear headed, and capable of making decisions. They told me I had to stay in the XXXX but their XXXX was full. I asked again if I could have my family take me and they refused and said I needed to get taken by ambulance ( another XXXX I paid ) to their other XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX. I said I can not go there I will not be able to afford that. My father said I can drive him there at least and they refused again. I have been disputing this out-of-network debt ever since, and all the sudden without notice I am getting a letter from IC Systems medical debt collections . I thought they were still working on my bill? I have very good insurance this has to be a mistake. I can not afford another monthly payment type situation I am drowning in bills as is. It is not fair that I was brought and forced to stay at XXXX XXXX when they knew I had XXXX XXXX XXXX insurance and had even asked for that. This amount of {$3900.00} is not correct. I would have and should have met my out of pocket max, I can not and will not pay this because it is not correct. Please help me! XXXX XXXX

Id been with this phone company for months & after about the 3rd month I realized that I had not been receiving the perks I was told Id receive if I switch to their company, Instead each month my bill was increased more and more because they had been switching my phone plan to the highest plan they had without my knowledge or consent. I contacted the phone asking about them switching my phone plan because I couldnt afford it, So they told me theyd have it fixed, they fixed it and gave me a promo on my next bill. Another 2 months come and the same thing happens again with them switching my phone plan, So at that point I was fed up, I had lost my job, got kicked out of where k was staying, and had to use the last money I had left to get a flight back to my hometown where my family was and helped me. I contacted the phone company and let them know that I wanted to get the phone service turned off and return the phones because I could no longer afford what they were doing to me, they tried to get me to stay if they bribed me with promo again, but this time that wasnt going to work for me so I said no, So they when ahead and approved my request, but told me that I might as well keep the phones because theyre going to make me pay for them still, and I responded ; even if I return them as they were when I bought them, and they told me yes, So I asked how much that would be and I was told that it would only be the installment plan I had on the phone which was roughly around {$25.00} a month, but instead they had continued to bill me as if I were still connected service wise with their phone company, Meaning I was receiving hundreds and later on thousands of dollars worth of bills from them.

I spoke with this company back in XXXX, I told them to send me proof that I owe this company. pursuant 15 USC 1692c ( b ) I never gave the company written permission to communicate with me concerning alleged debt. I.C. systems has placed this account on my credit report without notifying me about the proof of alleged debt, and have disregarded what the proof of alleged debt that I asked for. When they contacted me by phone at my work place. I.C.SYSTEMS continues to run my credit report without my permission, they have stolen my identity and they are selling securities using my name which is fraud under 18 usc 1348 selling securities and commodities. This XXXX company is in bankruptcy and I am still a customer with this company. I am aware of the certificate of indebtedness which XXXX and i.c systems uses assets on the trading market also they filed a 1099 c with the irs for all debts. yet failed to provide me with that 1099 c copy. I expect i.c.systems to be removed from all three of the credit reports immediately, and I also expect for XXXX to stop stealing my information and giving it to these companies because I know that they are in bankruptcy and it is illegal what they are doing. I am still a customer with this company. I have paid a deposit to be with the company BACK IN XXXX and now with the second attempt to collect a debt that I do not owe they steal my information to make money by selling my securities. My name is copyrighted and I do not appreciate them stealing from me. I will be contacting the sec. exchange and comptroller because this is out of hand. I am also aware that all debts are a obligation of the united states and that both companies have already been paid.

I had an account with XXXX that was closed in XX/XX/2019 because the service didn't work. I returned all equipment that I could return and then COVID took place so the bill for the service was left outstanding. Recently, I spoke to IC System who sent a letter and disputed the amount owed and advised that they need to verify the debt. A few days later they placed the debt on my credit report. I paid the amount owed for service which was {$330.00} and they are refusing to update the balance they are reporting on my credit report of {$770.00}. I called and spoke to XXXX XXXX at XXXX XXXX est, who stated they will not update the credit report or remove the collection until the balance is paid or I settle for an additional {$160.00}. I also asked him to verify the debit and look into the dispute I placed about not owing the full balance they are reporting. XXXX said they are not going to make any changes or updates until I process payment for more money even if I don't owe the balance. When I asked to speak to a manager he was refusing to place one on the phone until I said I will take legal action against them. He then transferred me to XXXX XXXX who was extremely disrespectful because I corrected him on how to pronounce my name correctly and because I asked him the name of the previous representative. XXXX then stated that he was not going to talk to me and proceeded to disconnect the call before I could state my case. They are illegally trying to collect on a debt that is not owed, reporting incorrect information to the credit bureaus, and I do not owe IC Systems any money as I have never signed any agreement with them so they should not be reporting anything to my credit reports.

On XXXX/XXXX/2013, XXXX ( at XXXX XXXX ) in XXXX XXXX, Indiana told me that my upcoming XXXX would cost me ( out of my pocket ) {$25.00} deductible and either {$12.00} or {$26.00} extra based on whether it was an easy XXXX or a difficult one.

Afterwards, despite having what I was told was an easy XXXX, I was told that I owed the higher {$51.00} amount. Fine. So I paid it off before leaving the office that same day. Then, in XXXX, I get a bill from XXXX XXXX corporate office for another {$60.00}, still owed for my procedure!!!! I called XXXX at the XXXX XXXX office where I had my procedure done, and explained that I paid the bill in full ... ... .The {$51.00} that I was told was my share of the complete bill. She left the phone, and came back shortly. XXXX exact words to me when she returned to the phone was " Yes, you are correct. The total charge should have only been {$51.00}! '' which I had already paid! So I also called " XXXX '', back from the corporate office, and informed him what XXXX said. Next thing I know, I 'm getting another {$60.00} bill in XXXX 2013 from a DEBT COLLECTION company! So I called " XXXX '' from this IC SYSTEM debt collection company, and explained this entire scenario to her.

IC Systems called about 3 months ago saying I had a collection out for an XXXX XXXX XXXX account I had opened in XXXX XXXX. The calls happened in XXXX and I had no previous notifications about outstanding debts ( i am very good about managing debt ). Naturally, I drove to XXXX XXXX XXXX to resolve whatever was on my account, but they had no recollection of any outstanding balances with them, nor could they trace the amount I was told I owed. I also asked them if they use small, family owned debt collection companies out of Minnesota, like IC Systems. They said no, they go through large, verified companies that collect debt and give ample time to take care of any debts and give several notifications before sending to collections, which was not done. They said I had partaken in a scam transaction for {$84.00} and some change. I immediately went to my bank and cancelled my card and reported a dispute for fraud on my account. It has been 2 months since this took place and today XXXX/XXXX/XXXX I get another call from IC systems in another state and city, with a different number and no voicemail left. From the first run in with them I knew they could n't have any credible information on me so I called back and told the man who picked up the phone that they are a scam and I am reporting them to the FBI and the BBB. He tried to tell me that they are a real company but I hung up. Several XXXX searches proved that IT IS A SCAM COMPANY. Some said it is a scam group posing as IC systems trying to get you to make payments over the phone, others said it was actually IC systems and they were scamming people. I am tired of the scares about collections and they need to be taken down.

I have a property in XXXX, GA, managed through a management agency. The property management informed me in XX/XX/XXXX that the tenant had told them that the HVAC was not functioning. I worked with the property management to replace the HVAC unit by XX/XX/XXXX. In XX/XX/XXXX, my property had new property management, with the new management still having access to records from the old management. In XX/XX/XXXX and XX/XX/XXXX, I received several unresolved collection letters from I.C. Systems, Inc., about a past-due bill for {$560.00} for work that XXXX ( HVAC company ) had supposedly performed at my property. I reached out to the new property manager to inquire about the letter and the charges. The property management investigated the note and informed the HVAC company claimed to have performed work that was not approved by me. The property management showed me the statement from the old property management, indicating the actual HVAC work that I accepted and paid for out of my reserve funds from the management company. The property management informed me that the HVAC company did neither go through my old property management, the maintenance that worked with the property management ( XXXX XXXX ), or me to get this work done. They are charging me for a job that I did not request and did not approve, and I do not see a work order in the property management system matching the one on my bill. Unfortunately, I'm not sure of how I should go about disputing this collection, and it is a charge that I am not responsible for paying. I reached out to XXXX to find a resolution to the matter, but I was informed the bill had already been solved to the collection agency.

I am a victim of identity theft. I recently learned that my personal information was used to open an account at your company, IC SYSTEMS. I did not open or authorize the accounts that you report a balance of {$400.00}. This fraud account was not opened by or used by me. I've never had an obligation to you or the medical companies you represent. Additionally, I am allowed under the HIPAA law ( Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996 ) to protect my privacy and medical records from third parties. I do not recall giving permission to any medical physician, office, or affiliate to release my medical information to a third party. I am aware that the HIPAA does allow for limited information about me. Still, anything more is only to be revealed with the patients authorization and I have never given permission to any physician. However, please send me written confirmation that I am not responsible for charges on this account and take appropriate steps to remove information about this account from my credit files. I have enclosed a copy of my FTC Identity Theft Report. Because the information you are reporting is the result of identity theft and is inaccurate, I request that you stop reporting this information to the CRAs, as directed by section 623 ( a ) ( 1 ) ( B ) of the FairCredit Reporting Act, 15U.S.C. 1681s-2 ( a ) ( 1 ) ( B ). I ask that you take these steps as soon as possible. I also have enclosed a copy of the FTC'sNotice to Furnishers, which explains your responsibilities when reporting information to CRAs. Please stop reporting this fraudulent information, investigate this matter, and delete any disputed items as soon as possible.

I recently installed the XXXX XXXX app and started reviewing my credit report. I saw a collections report for an account with XXXX XXXX XXXX that was opened on XX/XX/XXXX and has an owed balance of {$280.00}. I did not open this account as I have been an XXXX customer for about 3 year 's. I am also participating in a program called the XXXX XXXX XXXX that provides internet / cellular service at a free or reduced rate for low income families. I have had free/ reduced internet through this program with XXXX for over 3 years and would not jeopardize my reduced plan by adding another service alongside my established service with XXXX XXXX About 4 years ago, I was the victim of identity theft and have an open case and fraud alerts with the FTC. I am assuming this XXXX XXXX XXXX is associated with my identity theft issue. I spoke to the collection agency today XX/XX/XXXX and spoke with a representative named XXXX who would not accept the information I provided to dispute this debt. I do have verified documentation to support this dispute. I spoke to XXXX XXXX XXXX, a rep named XXXX and was also met with mild discourtesy regarding the information I am providing to dispute this debt and no knowledge of this account. When I spoke to the collection agency, she verified my address as being XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX CA XXXX. This is not correct. My address is XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX CA XXXX. She also had an incorrect email address and phone number for me. I gave her the correct contact information. However, both entities are persistent about collecting this debt and refusing to accept or note the correct information I am trying to provide to dispute this account.

The company, IC Systems, claim to have a debt in my name owed to XXXX in the amount of {$300.00}. I have never received any written notification by them or XXXX regarding this debt. I noticed this on my credit report from another collection agency reporting from XXXX. However, I have called this company and they claim the account was sent back to XXXX. Furthermore, I get in contact with XXXX and they claim that the account was never sent to them from the previous company before IC System took over. I got in contact with IC System and spoke to a very rude representative from their company. I verbally asked for a itemized statement to be sent to my home address, in order, to view what was owed and why to XXXX. The representative refused to mail the itemized statement which I thought under the FCRA that I have a right to get this information without this kind of harassment from a rep. He told me that they do not mail out itemized statements due to their policies? I told the rep over and over that I was going through a divorce and that I needed this statement for court ( martial debt to be split ) ; however, he refused and told me that " it doesnt matter if you are getting divorced, you still owe this ''. This rep was very unprofessional over the phone and refused to give me validation on the debt owed. I felt very disrespected by the rep and simply hung up on him because of it. IC Systems should not be reporting this to my credit without any proper notice whatsoever, considering they hire people described above that refuses to give out validation for a debt owed. This should be deleted completely and no further contact from this company to me.

Dear XXXX / XXXX : I am responding to your contact about a debt you are trying to collect. Please supply the information below so that I can be fully informed : Between XX/XX/2020 and XX/XX/2020, a new account in collections was added to your report. The collection agency is I C SYSTEM. The original creditor was XXXX XXXX XXXX. This debt was removed over 3 years ago for lack to validation within 30 days by all 3 Credit reporting agencies. Please go back in history and check to see the deletion. Now IC Systems is reattaching the debt again 3 years later. THIS IS ILLEGAL Attaching the debt 3 years later also stretches the date, which is also against the Fair Credit Reporting Reporting Actwhich is also ILLEGAL. Please remove from all Credit reporting agencies and they after frauding the debt and the date When I wrote the company itself, I demanded a copy of they contract or bill, and they could provide neither and nothing, not even original creditor, date of debt. Which is irrelevant since the debt was never validated 3 years ago within 30 days and removed from all 3 Credit Agencies, and NOW is put back on with a new starting date ... all illegal according to the Credit Reporting Reporting Act I am unsure WHY when I disputed the debt, your company validated the debt with NOTHING to prove the debt was good. Especially after it was proven invalidated years ago, and removed. Somebody needs to do their job more carefully. This lowered my credit 49 points. I expect this debt to be removed from my credit report IMMEDIATELY. I will be filing a complaint with the : State of Oklahoma Attorney General, XXXX XXXX XXXX FBI XXXX Fraud Division

An alleged debt was placed on my credit report from I C Systems without an notification before hand for the company XXXX. I called I C Systems and asked why I did not received any correspondence before the alleged was placed on my credit report. I C systems responded by claiming they had mailed a letter to a so call address that there are aware that I no longer lived. How do I know this, I C Systems updated my credit report with my most up to date address, this is proof that they indeed knew my correct address and refused to send me correspondence before placing an collections on my credit report. Another instance of how they do not follow the rules that govern them. Moreover I have proof that this alleged debt was paid to the original creditor, and therefore I do not owe the debt that is being reported on my credit report by I C systems. I called I C Systems to rectify this problem and they have no interest in doing so which forces me to write this complaint. Attached is a copy of my XXXX receipts, along with the confirmations numbers and tickets numbers. This alleged debt is to be removed immediately as it is fraudulent. Neither is the alleged debt to be updated to paid in full as the debt was NOT paid to the collection agency but to the original creditor.

I have reviewed a copy of my consumer report recently and noticed there are several debt collection agencies reporting a debt that they have not validated and are reporting without my written or oral permission. There is not contract nor agreement between myself and these companies. Their unfair reporting practices have caused me significant damage recently. These errors and unlawful practices need to be corrected and all misleading and unlawful information on my report needs to be removed immediately per federal laws ( Fair Debt Collection Practice Act ) : 15 USC 1692d ( 4 ) The advertisement for sale of any debt to coerce payment of the debt. 15 USC 1692f ( 1 ) The collection of any amount ( including any interest, fee, charge, or expense incidental to the principal obligation ) unless such amount is expressly authorized by the agreement creating the debt or permitted by law. 15 USC 1692g ( a ) I received no notifications via mail about the validity of this debt 15 USC 1692j ( a ) It is unlawful to design, compile, and furnish any form knowing that such form would be used to create the false belief in a consumer that a person other than the creditor of such consumer is participating in the collection of or in an attempt to collect a debt such consumer allegedly owes such creditor, when in fact such person is not so participating. If the company in question can not provide an original, " wet-ink '' signed contract or agreement between me, XXXX XXXX , the consumer, and their company named as Creditor, the debt is invalid and therefor unlawfully permitted to be collected upon and most certainly can not be furnished on my consumer report.

I.C. SYSTEM, INC ( Original Creditor : XXXX XXXX ) has failed to send me a response with my requested information for alleged collection account XXXX within the first five initial days of receiving my dispute. I have already been suffering enough with this inaccurate data on my credit report, I prepare ways to circumvent talking about my financial status or shortcomings with everyone from family members to co-workers causing changes in the relationships that have shaped my life until this day. The stress that comes with this alleged debt ruining my creditworthiness can not be managed. As a single mother, the financial expectations I am required to meet are unimaginable and it is a no-brainer that if I had the financial boost that good credit offers I would be in better shape to face daily challenges that come with my current predicament. Due to lenders turning down my applications I was forced to move out of my original state and ended up at my current address with no family or close friends to vent to leaving me visiting more social programs to help me deal with my stress and anxiety. Now that I contact this company about this alleged debt there is no response?? furthermore I.C. SYSTEM, INC ( Original Creditor : XXXX XXXX ) is also reporting this alleged debt as an " Account '' which is inaccurate according to USC Title 15 1693A2 Therefore at this point this collection agency is knowingly furnishing false data on my credit report in violation of15 U.S. Code? 1692e. False or misleading representations and I demand them to Cease and desistfurnishing this alleged debt and notify all credit reporting agencies to delete it immediately.

Dear Sir/Madam, I hope this message finds you well. I am writing to kindly request your assistance in removing some information from my account. According to the law, medical bills under {$500.00} are supposed to be removed and it is a violation of my rights under 15 US code 1681 and 15 US code 1681b to have this information present. Additionally, I would appreciate it if you could suppress any negative information and update the report accordingly. I understand that it is illegal to place a charge off on a report and send a 1099-C to the debtor. Furthermore, I have noticed that the reporting across the bureaus is not accurate, and I kindly request that the information be removed immediately. I have attached the relevant report for your reference. Finally, I would like to raise a concern regarding the difficulty in accessing my online account. I believe it is unfair to have to pay to see my own data, and I would appreciate if the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau could investigate this matter. I would greatly appreciate it if you could attend to this matter as soon as possible. Thank you for your time and assistance. Best regards, XXXX XXXX XXXX I.C.

I had visited a local ER ( emergency room ) for treatment in late XX/XX/2019. Part of the total bill during that visit was to be paid to the provider who treated me. That provider is represented by XX/XX/XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX. The total amount to be collected was {$640.00}. Initially, there was no diagnostic code on the bill, to which I contacted the company 2 times in order to get that CPT code. The code was then emailed to me, but never put on the bill. Initially, when I called the first time, the company ( XX/XX/XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX ) said that they were not allowed to give me the diagnosis code and that in order to get that code, I had to call the hospital to get that information because they were not allowed to give it to me. In essence, they wanted me to pay for something for which no service code was on the bill. After I paid {$50.00} to the bill, I received a statement on XX/XX/19, which reflected the new amount of {$590.00}. After 1 month passed, I then received a collection notice by I.C. System saying that I had the {$590.00} balance owed and that I needed to contact them in order to pay my bill. I was confused because I had just recently paid XXXX XX/XX/XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX a total of {$50.00} in XXXX, and just a little over a month later, now my account was suddenly put into collections. It didn't make sense. I called I.C. system, and paid another {$50.00} on the account, making the new balance {$540.00}. However, after I made that payment, I.C. system did not send me a new statement or even an electronic receipt of the payment I had made. It all seems very shady and I'm worried that this just a scam to be honest.

This is a request for assistance with the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau for unfair credit reporting and debt collection practice from the original creditor and debt collection agency. The original creditor named : XXXX XXXX submitted a debt to be collected to the debt collection agency named : IC System for an amount of {$150.00} The original creditor has never made an attempt to submit a billing statement and details of the medical debt to my home of residence. There was never a detailed information about the age of the debt and the amount owed based on the services that was supposed to have been performed. There was never an attempt by the original creditor to separate the amount owed in comparison to what my medical insurance is supposed to cover. Furthermore, I am military personnel with full medical and dental coverage to include a full coverage of a supplemental medical insurance from a separate insurance entity. Both the original creditor and the debt collector did not provide full details of the debt or send any billing statement as stated from the fair credit reporting act. Instead, both parties decided to send the false information to the credit bureaus which was not fully verified to ensure proper reporting procedure was conducted. Due to their negligence and deliberate misconduct I lost tremendous credit points from the credit bureaus which impacted my score and seized the plan to purchase a home for my family. I am pleading for your help to stop this insane malpractice of credit reporting and debt collection process and bring sanity back to my family who is not suffering from not being able to purchase a home.

At this time I was given confirmation that my account was close, with a XXXX balance and in good standing with XXXX XXXX. I returned the router as requested and that was it. On XX/XX/XXXX, I received a credit alert advising me that a new collection account was open under my personal information. XXXX XXXX transferred a debt in the amount of {$100.00} to I.C Systems. Please be advised that I never received a bill, a late noticed of any kind by XXXX XXXX or I.C Systems given me no opportunity to dispute the debit prior to negatively impacting my credit report. Following the credit alert I contacted XXXX XXXX XXXX Customer Care team, after speaking with several representative I spoke with XXXX. He was great, helpful and took the time to review my concerns properly. He let me know that the {$100.00} charge was for the router. Although they could confirm that the router was delivered, it reflected delivered two days after the allotted return timeframe. Considering that they have possession of the equipment, he moved forward to issuing a credit for the outstanding balance of {$100.00}. I was advised to contact XXXX XXXX on Monday to get confirmation that the account was closed, with a XXXX balance and that they instructed the third party collection agency to delete all negative reporting associated to the debt. Well on Monday XX/XX/XXXX, I was told the credit was there reflecting as pending approval and that I should call again in a few days. I called again on XX/XX/XXXX, and I was given the same story.

We had XXXX install our internet in XXXX of 2020 at our XXXX house. They did a terrible job of the installation. They ran the disc by the driveway leaning over, ran the cable over the driveway. The system never worked and within a week, the cable was torn over the driveway and the disc was leaning over. I called the company about fixing it, and I could not get them to respond. I finally just asked them to cancel it because it wasn't working. We NEVER got internet. They told me I would have to pay a {$360.00} cancellation fee. I responded by saying that contracts work both ways and they have a responsibility to fix the service or cancel. The girl suggested I suspend the service which I did. I forgot about the service. We used our hot spot on our phone and the account came out of suspension came in XXXX of XXXX. I asked them at that time to come get their equipment. They refused. They did ask me to mail back on turn in the XXXX box. I think that box got thrown away. We forgot it belonged to that service because it didn't work and disconnected it completely. I took responsibility for the box and said I would pay them the {$300.00} to cover the cost of the box, but I was refusing to pay for service I never received. They continue to send me debt collection and have creditors call me. I have disputed in writing twice and by phone. Once on the phone I offered the {$300.00} to cover the cost of the box because that is what they told me the box cost. They refused the {$300.00} payment. I am standing my ground on principal alone. They didn't provide a service, and I shouldn't be XXXX into paying for something I never received.

IC Systems and XXXX XXXX has continued to harass me for a debt not owed. This has been removed from a credit report years ago only to show back up on my report years later. A salesman called me one day representing XXXX XXXX XXXX. ( I do not recall now what yearn it was ). He told me that he could switch me for my then current service provider ( XXXX ) for a promotional fee of some sort. ( I do not recall ). He said that he worked directly with XXXX as well and could return my current equipment and switch the service. ( I found out later from XXXX that XXXX had nothing to do with their services. A tech had already come out and installed a dish. The dish was not installed at the location the salesperson and I discussed, and I did not have the promotional services as discussed with the salesperson. I immediately called cancelled services and requested equipment pick-up. On top of the false advertisements and fraudulent sales tactics used, XXXX attempted to withdrawal funds that I did not authorize from my bank account. ( I was able at the time to reverse the charges ). I did at one time speak to someone in accounting at XXXX who claimed to make all adjustments needed and resolve the problem. Only to see it on my credit report like a year later. I complained and it removed. Now years later it shows up again. I am sick of the issue and both the creditor and XXXX XXXX XXXX contention to continue to harass. On top of all that< I have not received a collection letter or a phone call from IC Systems since it was removed from my credit report years ago. Absolutely negligent and a disregard for people 's rights.

I, XXXX XXXX, hired XXXX XXXX by contract to install floors in my home. They installed the wrong color grout on my floors and incorrectly installed molding ( other issues aside ). I ask XXXX XXXX to fix this as per the contract, and made 7 appointments for XXXXXXXX XXXX to fix the problem. XXXX XXXX failed to make these appointments without notice before the appointment. I called XXXX XXXX the day before the last 3 appointments and confirmed the appointment with them, but they failed to show or notify me. For the last appointment, which I confirmed with them and I stated that I would dispute the charge of {$8400.00} if they did not show up. I had to take paid time of ( PTO ) for each of these appointments and had no PTO left to take off for additional appointments. I disputed the charge with my credit card company, XXXX XXXX XXXX, and after several communications and document exchanges they refunded me the charge. XXXX XXXX did not attempt to contact me or fix my floors per the contract until the charge of {$8400.00} was refunded. XXXX XXXX offered partial compensation for the floors, but the amounts they offered would not cover the cost. XXXX XXXX then sent the information to IC Systems who then registered it with the credit reporting agencies as an unpaid overdue debt. This is not a debt! It is a failure of a contractor to fulfill a contract. I disputed this debt with XXXX and they would not reverse it as they confirmed it as debt. As you can see by all the documentation that I provided, this should never have been reported to the credit agencies as a debt. XXXX was also sent all this information.

To Whom It May Concern, I am writing to assert my rights under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), 15 U.S.C. 1681 et seq., and demand a thorough investigation and prompt removal of a collection account that is inaccurately reported on my credit report. Your immediate attention to this matter is required. The collection account in question is as follows : Creditor : I.C. System, Inc Account Number : XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX The aforementioned collection account is being reported with an open date of XX/XX/XXXX. This is a gross misrepresentation of the facts, as I terminated my XXXXXXXX XXXX in XXXX and dutifully returned all equipment associated with my account. The continued presence of this erroneous collection account on my credit report is causing significant harm to my financial well-being. Pursuant to the FCRA, I demand that you initiate an immediate and comprehensive investigation to verify the accuracy of this collection account. Should you fail to substantiate the validity of this account or correct the inaccurate information, I insist that you promptly delete the account from my credit report. In accordance with the FCRA, you have 30 days from the receipt of this letter to complete your investigation and provide me with the results in writing. If your investigation substantiates the inaccuracy of this collection account, you are legally obligated to remove the account from my credit report and notify me of the changes made. I expect your agency to fulfill its legal obligations under the FCRA without delay. Failure to do so may result in further legal action on my part.

I C Systems have been reporting an erroneous Collection account under my XXXX credit file for sometime. I sent them 2 letters via U.S. Mail and both letters have gone unanswered. I mailed the letter to them to their offices in XXXX XXXX, Minnesota as per their website. ( ICSystem.com ). They are willfully in violation of the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act ( FDCPA ) and also the Texas Fair Debt Collection Practices Act ( State XXXX XXXX ). They have failed to provide verification of this alleged debt. The FDCPA states " If a consumer sends a written dispute or request for verification within 30 days of receiving the 1692g notice, then the debt collector must either mail the consumer the requested verification information or cease collection efforts altogether. Such asserted disputes must also be reported by the creditor to any credit bureau that reports the debt. Verification should include at a minimum the amount owed and the name and address of the original creditor ''. They have failed and I have given them now over 60 days. As of today, I have formally sent a complaint to the Federal Trade Commission, the Texas Attorney General 's Office and also have made contact with a Law Firm to see what my options are. I will be suing for willful violation of all Acts and also sue for financial harm since I have been turned down for credit after applying for credit and having this frivolous trade-in on my credit report. They have until the close of business of XX/XX/2018 or I will file a personal lawsuit against IC Systems or have my outside counsel file a lawsuit. Thanks, XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX.

Hi there, thank you for your time in advanced! My issue- I had a plan with XXXX XXXX for a few years. I decided to close the plan I had an switch over to a pre paid account because every month it seemed there was some hidden charge. Before I switched over to my new plan I had {$200.00} left to pay on my old one. I could not pay all of that at once so the accountants at XXXX XXXX said they could set me up on a payment plan of 4 payments of {$50.00}. I had been paying the {$50.00} payments for the last 3 months. On the XXXX month it was time to pay my last {$50.00}. When I called in to pay it, the woman on the other end told me I still owed {$200.00}. I informed her that I had set up a payment play a few months back and I have been making {$50.00} payments for the last 3 months. She told me she sees no history of that!! I had been calling in to make the payments instead of going online because I was told the payment plan option was not available online! With this said, that left me with NO receipts to go back to and show proof of my payments. After the woman telling me she see no payment history for me and I had no receipts to show, I felt very discouraged and let down that XXXX XXXX would be so careless. The woman I spoke to either had no idea what she was doing or XXXX XXXX all around messed up and something did not get recorded properly. This all happened almost TWO years ago and is now showing I owe a debt collector. I called the XXXX XXXX many times along with the debt collector and no one can seem to help. I am hoping cfpb can help me finally get this squared away. Thank you for your time!

There is an an address on 2 of my credit reporting company reports *XXXX and XXXX* with an address at XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX NY, XXXX, which I've never heard or nor have i ever lived there. I'm also dealing with a company called I.C.

Systems and they have the wrong person and they have ruined my credit score and they would need to show proof that their was an account opened on the day they set on both XXXX and XXXX that I am liable for an account that I never opened and I have yet to see any proof from them indicating such- I would like to see paperwork/documents of me opening an account with XXXX XXXX on the date they have given of XX/XX/18, that I never even opened! Either they have made a terrible mistake and need to correct it immediately by taking my name and information off that account or someone else has used my personal info and their is a data breach or mistaken/taken identity here and this could be fraud!

This is for a XXXX XXXX bill from XXXX. The new collection company erased the old debt and created and new debt starting in XXXX. When I contacted the company to dispute that his account was old and not new, they told kept trying to get me to just pay their amount. The supervisor confirmed that the debt was started in XXXX and not XXXX and that they were reporting it as such, but they are not. She went on to claim that it was the credit bureaus fault, not theirs. However, when I then told her that if what she is saying is true, then in two years her account would disappear off my credit because the account is 5 years old, and negative items would come off my credit after 7 years. She proceeded to tell me that wasn't true and those items don't come off your credit. I told her she was the first person to ever tell me that. She then told me that the only way it would come off the report is if they reported it as paid, again tried to get me to pay. I again told her that two different mortgage companies were telling me that it was showing up as a new debt as well as myself looking at what they submitted to the credit bureau. She ignored what I was saying and again blamed the credit bureau, confirmed again that the account was from XXXX, and that they reported it that way, but that they also submitted the XXXX date to the credit bureau. This is obviously a tactic that this company uses to get people to call in and pay the note, even though it's an extremely old note. I told her that I would have actually considered paying it off if their practices were not blatantly shady and possibly even illegal.

On XX/XX/XXXX, in a conference call with myself and the insurance provider, XXXXXXXX XXXX became aware that the fraudulent insurance claim they submitted was not eligible for payment and they agreed to stop trying to collect any more money for this {$18000.00} bill for services not provided and refund the {$13000.00} that was collected on this charge. After time had passed and I did not get a check, I called back on in XXXX and the patient accounts lead confirmed that she had forwarded this account to legal and that they should have drafted the refund by now, but she did not know why they didn't and didn't have a time frame. After this, legal sent a gag letter saying we were not allowed to call and that we would have to submit more communication in writing. We did submit more than one certified letter after this and they never responded. They did not respond to the state consumer protection complaint either. They submitted bills for services in XX/XX/XXXX and we disputed the bills because they still owed a refund via certified mail and the dispute was not acknowleged or responded to. We sent written follow up in the medical chart as well and it was not responded to other than saying " we aren't allowed to respond to you '', and then 2 more letters were sent with no response. Then we recieved a notice from a collection agency for the debt and we sent them a certified mail dispute and this collection agency did not acknowlege or respond to the dispute either. The collection agency is IC System with reference number XXXX and the dispute was sent with tracking USPS XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX

I made final payments to my previously owned XXXX XXXX XXXX network account back in XXXX, XXXX and XXXX, XXXX. The account was closed by XX/XX/XXXX/XX/XX/XXXX for I went with a different service. From XX/XX/XXXX until XXXX, XXXX I have made several calls to both entities, as well as had a conference call on several occasions with customer service reps from both XXXX XXXX XXXX and XXXX XXXX. On many occasions, the XXXX representatives informed the XXXX XXXX XXXX reps that their balance is paid in full and no more money is owed to them. XXXX XXXX XXXX would bill for both their service & XXXX service, XXXX required 2 month payments in advance and the due dates were never aligned, which made the billing difficult to understand let alone know who was due when. XXXX XXXX XXXX was paid their final balance, XXXX network informed them they are owed no more money and XXXX XXXX XXXX refuse to take responsibility for their human error in processing my final bill, which was a total of {$100.00}. Since then, my credit score has had fluctuating scores like a " see-saw '' every 2-3 months due to XXXX XXXX XXXX hiring a new collection agency, or collection agencies buying this account from each other, which makes it very difficult to maintain my excellent and hardworking credit score of XXXX. Every time a new collection agency place their collection on my credit report I have to contact the agencies to have it investigated and every, single time it is removed or deleted. I feel I am being harassed by these several collection agencies and XXXX XXXX XXXX to collect a debt that has already been paid in full.

I have the receipt in my XXXX account transaction record for a payment to IC System on XX/XX/XXXX the company in question which I have attached below. I assumed the account to be paid in full and received no further communication that I can recall either phone or mail. Today ( XX/XX/XXXX ) I received a call from the collection agency stating I owed them {$400.00} for the services rendered on the above dates. I informed them that I would return their call after checking my records that I believed that bill to be paid. As it had been over a year I had not given it much thought in some time. After finding the payment in my HSA account I contacted the provider XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX The agent looked up my account and initially told me that the XX/XX/XXXX date I still owed {$100.00} and that XX/XX/XXXX was paid in full. He then asked to place me on hold to check the account further. After he returned to the line he stated that I actually only owed {$56.00} and he saw it turned over to collection to IC System in XXXX of XXXX with no further info after that. I have not received any itemized bills for this nor any other communication that any balance remained from either the provider or the collection agency until today a year and a half later. I was also not been given an account number or any type of identification for the actual account by either party during today 's calls.

On XX/XX/2018 I sent a certified letter notifying your company that youve listed erroneous information on my credit file but you ignored for several months, you sent a letter stating that it was verified but to my knowledge I dont recall owing a debt to your company. If you look up my name you will see several people with the exact same name. Please dont compromise my name with anyone else. In order to conduct this matter correctly, I have taken legal actions against your company for violating my rights under the FCRA. Your company has violated more than just a few FCRA laws. You have also violated my right by using my consent without contacting me off such a debt or erroneous account displaying on my credit file. I have attached a letter to this message. I prefer to take this matter to court to get this resolved immediately and removed permanently. I am very disappointed that as a company you tried to collect an erroneous debt not owed by me and you consistently harassed me by phone, sending someone to my job, calling my job and also trying to place a lien on my account. For that reason I am suing your company and I am seeking {$5000.00} for damages you have caused to my credit file. I must admit that I have experienced being a victim of identity theft, I was affected by the breach with XXXX and a few more other companies. I am allowing 72 hours of a response upon receipt for an internal dispute to take place for this matter. I am also sending this as an affidavit so I should hear back from your company within 3 days if not the filed lawsuit will remain as is and the dates as well.

I C Systems placed a {$450.00} debt that was from XXXX XX/XX/2010 - XX/XX/2010 on my credit report. I had no knowledge of this bill until I received an alert from XXXX credit monitoring service that I even owed this balance. I called I C Systems today and was then told about the debt. They claimed to have sent notice of collections to a previous post office box that I had in Arizona. However, ALL of the information on my credit report is correct. Therefore, if they wanted to contact me about this, my current address is listed on all XXXX bureaus. They could 've also called me, because my current phone number is on all three reports as well. Instead of conducting business the correct way, they went ahead and placed this on my report without properly contacting me and giving me a chance to dispute this. This is unacceptable. My score has dropped XXXX points because of this. Furthermore, the statute of limitations is up for this debt. And they are still trying to collect anyway KNOWING that the statute of limitations is 7 years for this type of debt. Just pitiful. I have sent I C Systems an email letting them know that I am reporting them to the CFPB. Had I not seen this on my credit report, it would 've SAT there. I 've worked entirely TOOOOOOO hard to restore my credit and will continue to work to keep it secure. I have a severe disgust for companies that do things like this and I would like immediate action taken to not only have this DELETED from my credit reports, but this company needs to be fined. Cause if they 're doing this to me, they 're doing it to other people.

I.C. SYSTEM, INC is reporting an account on my credit report with XXXX XXXX XXXX by three different names with different information on each report. This account reporting states a {$920.00} collection account however I do not have knowledge of signing an agreement with terms and conditions with I.C. SYSTEM, INC. According to the FCRA, Section 623, A person who furnishes information to a consumer reporting agency regarding a delinquent account being placed for collection, charged to profit or loss, or subjected to any similar action shall, not later than 90 days after furnishing the information, notify the agency of the date of delinquency on the account, which shall be the month and year of the commencement of the delinquency on the account that immediately preceded the action. In summary I.C. SYSTEM, INC has not provided me a copy of any original documentation ( a consumer contract with my signature on it ) as required under Section 609 ( a ) ( 1 ) ( A ) & Section 611 ( a ) ( 1 ) ( A ). Furthermore, they have failed to provide a method of verification as required under Section 611 ( a ) ( 7 ) and under Section 611 ( 5 ) ( A ) of the FCRA you are required to promptly delete all information which can not be verified. This company additionally is not licensed although the state of California requires a debt collection agency to be registered and licensed in order to do business within this state. I have contacted this business providing the facts stated here but at this time the company is still reporting inaccurate information and will not respond to the demand of removal.

On XX/XX/2023 I received and internal secured message from I.C. Systems so I followed their instructions, thinking that they were responding to my complaint that I had just filed with theCFPB on an alleged debt and their collection practices. I opened the secured message and saw that they were returning an alleged account back to XXXX and that no further collections will be attempted. If I had any questions I could call the number listed. So I called the number just to ask the question about the removal of the damaged collection account that had been placed on my credit reports. The I.C. Systems representative tried to transfer me to another section that the pop-up on her screen told her to but no answer. I call back later and went through the same steps and finally reached someone in that specific section. I asked how they planned to remove the collection account from my credit report, per the account information and reference information that I provided to them. They responded eventually with the fact that they dont report for XXXX but for XXXX and I asked what XXXX account, because I hadnt received any type of communication via mail or phone calls concerning an alleged debt owed to XXXX. So I ended the call. Upon my further research I did see that I.C. Systems had placed a collection account on my credit report for an alleged debt that I had no knowledge of or had received any type of communication concerning it. I reviewed XXXX 3 bureaus reports for XX/XX/XXXX ; XX/XX/XXXX where there werent any collections accounts but it appeared on XXXX report dated XX/XX/.

XX/XX/2017, I placed an order with XXXX via XXXX ; leasing a new device, and establishing a line of service ending in XXXX. I was migrating my existing line and existing device from a company line to a personal line. I ended the company line. I was given a temporary line ( XXXX ) while they completed the migration of my existing line, and was told upon completion it would replace the temporary line. That did not happen. The customer service representative kept a second line open against my permission, Then made it look like I requested cancellation so Id be charged an Early Termination Fee. I contacted XXXX XX/XX/2017 and reported their error. I was then told I was responsible for the early termination fee. Of course I refused due to their misstep in transferring my service. They would not fix it. So I made a complaint to the Better Business Bureau. Complaint # XXXX. I spoke to XXXX several times via email about my complaint. He lied to BBB saying he never heard from me, which automatically closes the case and the account went to collections for {$440.00}. I. C. Systems, Inc then increased the charge to {$460.00}. Which is illegal. I have the emails of correspondence which I will attach. I would like this collection account deleted immediately from my XXXX credit report and never added again to any of my credit history with all three bureaus. The fact they did not own their mistake and then the collection agency taxing on more money is horrible. I have disputed several times over the years to no avail. I recently discovered CFPB so here I am making this complaint.

I received a letter ( dated XX/XX/2021 ) from IC System stating that I owed {$270.00} to XXXX, who is both the original and current creditor to whom the alleged debt is owed ( lanuguage from the letter that was sent ). I immediately sent out a debt validation letter by way of certified mail with return receipt ( tracking # XXXX with RR # XXXX ). I have attached copies of confirmation of certified mail receipt. I never received a response back. I have studied the FDCPA and it says under the FDCPA, the debt collector must respond if a consumer disputes the alleged debt in writing. I have attached the exact same letter that I sent to IC System detailing very specific documentation of the validation of the alleged debt. I sent a follow-up debt validation letter to IC System on XX/XX/2021. It was received XX/XX/2021. IC System then sent another debt collector notice with a COMPLETELY different amount ( {$370.00} ) stating that I now owed {$370.00} and they sent copies of a printed out bill as verification of the alleged debt. Under the FDCPA, a printed bill is not sufficient validation of an alleged debt. They did not provide the documentation I requested including a contract with my written signature and they PUT A NEGATIVE REMARK ON MY CREDIT FILE EVEN AFTER I EXPRESSED THEM NOT TO IN MY DEBT VALIDATION LETTERS. In the follow up debt validation letter I sent I pointed out that IC System, INC is NOT licensed to collect on debt in my state of residence. Under Illinois law, debt collectors have to be licensed with the Department of Financial and Professional Regulation.

XXXX XXXX services sent me to collections for {$110.00}, they claimed I never returned my residential account equipment when they installed my business account in the same address. I changed from residential services to business account in XX/XX/XXXX. They waited over 1.5 years to inform me of this un-returned equipment. after they research the equipment and realized I didn't have it they removed the balance they claimed I owe them. Nevertheless, they already had send me to collections. The collections Agency is called IC System and they work for XXXX as their collector. IC system illegally reported erroneous information to my credit which is affecting my ability to obtain new contract in the line of business I work in. Now, it has been six months I've asking XXXX to provide me with some type of documentation to proof IC systems I don't own this money. XXXX have submitted numerous amount of tickets with the intent to inform IC systems i dont owe them this money. However, this tickets have lead to no resolutions. XXXX refuses to call IC Systems and IC system say they dont call their clients to confirm the account status. I do have recorded conversations where they acknoledge they cant provide me with written documentation to resolved my dispute ; also, i have recorded my conversation with ic system where they acknowledge that they dont call XXXX. If they are doing this to me, i am sure they are doing it to other consumers as well. please, help me in getting this resolved and help consumers not having to jump thru hoops to be treated respectfully and fairly.

Dear CFPB, I am writing to dispute the following information that XXXX XXXX XXXX and IC System supplied to XXXX, XXXX, and XXXX.

This item XXXX XXXX XXXX is inaccurate because this account was paid in full, and the equipment was returned to the company am requesting that XXXX XXXX XXXX have the item removed. I contacted XXXX several times to try to get assistance from them and was not successful. They responded that they had submitted all the documents to IC Sytems, and when I spoke to IC System and notified me that they didn't receive anything from XXXX. ( I have attached a screenshot of how many times I submitted the dispute without resolution. ) I contacted IC System and notified them that the debit of XXXX dollars was invalid because I returned the equipment, and the account was paid in full. They responded that this was not for equipment its for an unpaid bill. I asked them several times to send me proof of nonpayment, and they refused to do so. I contacted XXXX XXXX XXXX and spoke to several representatives, and when they looked into the account and verified that the equipment was returned and that it was paid in full but didn't want to do anything about it. I also have attached an email from a different debt collector where they attempted to put in collections for the same account but dropped it because they investigated the account and found that I did return the equipment and paid in full. I will be attaching what I have sent to XXXX. Best Regards, XXXX XXXX

On XX/XX/XXXX I was notified by my credit monitoring system that IC Systems placed a collection on my credit report with XXXX. I immediately called and spoke with their representative XXXX XXXX on the same day. XXXX XXXX informed me the account was in reference to XXXX from XX/XX/XXXX. I informed XXXX XXXX that not only have I not received any communication about this debt prior to this account being placed on my account but I was in fact disputing the account as I did not owe XXXX any debt. XXXX XXXX informed me that communication was sent to an address that I have not lived at in over ten years and in a different state, and to an email address I have not used as well. This information was further confirmed by XXXX XXXX XXXX who acted as her manager during the call. I notified them verbally as well as written that they are in violation and have to report something to my credit without communicating with me. I verbally requested the account be disputed and removed for cause and they told me it would not even though they did not follow correct procedures. According to the Fair Credit Reporting Act and fair debt collection practices Act they are required by law to communicate the matter to me prior to placing an item on my credit. The recorded conversation clearly states it was not communicated. I want this account immediately removed from my credit report. This action is fraud and I will take action per federal and state laws including Violation of the fair debt Collections Practices XXXX and defamation of Character. A case will be initiated through the CFPB.

I received a call at XXXX CST XXXX/XXXX/2016 from XXXX, when answered, there was no one on the other end of the line, then the call disconnected from the caller 's end, forcing me to call back. When I finally got in touch with someone, I do n't feel they properly verified my information prior to disclosing what the call was regarding, then proceeded to attempt to collect a debt that is no longer in collections on my credit report. I view my credit report monthly, and can assure that this particular item fell off months ago. I advised the representative that this was no longer listed on my credit report and did n't want to be contacted again. I also filed 2 different change of addresses forwarding all mail from my previous address to the XXXX XXXX that I had, then to my current residence. I did n't receive any mail regarding this account after I moved, even though they should have received notice of the change. I then received a call from XXXX at XXXX CST XXXX/XXXX/2016, when answered, there was no one on the other end and the call disconnected from the caller 's end, again forcing me to call back. Called in, and rather than repeating myself with all of the same information listed above, I told the person that they have the wrong number. I should n't have to lie about who I am to get unwanted calls to stop. I work in a business that has to be up to date on collection laws at all times, and if the customer states that they do n't want to be called, the company is responsible for maintaining that request, not calling from another call center across the continent.

IC System is reporting incorrect negative information on my credit file.I recently received a copy of my credit file and noticed that IC SYSTEM is reporting a collection on my credit from XXXX. According to the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( hereafter referred to as FCRA ) Section 609 ( a ) ( 1 ) ( A ), You are required by federal law to verify through the physical verification of the original signed consumer contract all accounts you post on a credit report. Otherwise, anyone paying for your reporting service could fax, mail or email in a fraudulent account. Therefore, I am demanding to see verifiable proof ( an original Consumer Contract with my Signature on it ) you have on file of the accounts listed below. Your failure to positively verify these accounts has hurt my ability to obtain credit. Under the FCRA unverified accounts must be removed and if you are unable to provide me a copy of verifiable proof, you must remove the accounts listed I am absolutely certain that the item is incorrect and should be removed, so I am hereby exercising my rights under FCRA 611 ( a ) ( 7 ) to request a complete description of all methods used to investigate my aforementioned dispute. I am asking for this verification because my credit score is important to me, and I believe it is being unjustly degraded as a result of this unfortunate error. I would therefore request that you please do not send me a template letter in response to this request. I am in the process of planning a legal case, so I need specific answers to the specific questions asked of you in this letter

I have been a customer with XXXX XXXX XXXX for 4 years now. I have always had internet service with them. Last year in XXXX , my credit card was shut down due to fraud and that caused my payments to be late with my internet service. XXXX XXXX XXXX shut off my internet, and I had to re-establish my account with them after I resolved the issue. When they re-established my account, they opened up XXXX accounts simultaneously for the same address. I managed to get them to close XXXX , however I was unaware of the second one that was still open. I got a message saying that I owed {$93.00} on this account. I disputed it saying that I never consented to this account being opened in my name. I had several people inform me they would remove it from my account and that it would take a " few billing cycles ''. In addition to dealing with this account, I had an offer to open up another bundled account with a home phone to reduce my current XXXX XXXX XXXX internet service bill. I did not want to have the home phone, however they opened it up in my name without my consent anyways. Now I have XXXX accounts, XXXX opened without my knowledge, and XXXX now having gone to collections. The home phone was charged to me as {$110.00} and the other internet for {$93.00}, all the while, I have current internet service with XXXX XXXX XXXX at my address that I am paying on time each month. XXXX have gone to collections. My credit score was XXXX and is now XXXX . I am currently disputing XXXX delinquent accounts but not getting anywhere.

XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX XXXX, MN XXXX XXXX, phone XXXX I received a letter from XXXX or the other of these ( XXXX addresses were on the XXXX of the letter ) for an outstanding bill from XXXX of {$21.00}. There were 3 options, the first of which was to use their website : XXXX. I went to this website and was given the choice of giving a credit card or paying by check. I chose the first. After filling out the entire application to pay ( requiring several pages ), I was told that, instead of using this method, I 'd have to call the XXXX [ XXXX ] number. So I called. What followed was a series of attempts to get me to 1 ) buy a medalert system, 2 ) buy a {$10.00} discount card and 3 ) buy a {$100.00} dollar discount card or 4 ) buy into a 'cruise ' that would probably cost me hundreds of dollars. When I declined all of these, they automated system hung up. I went through this whole XXXX twice, just to be sure the first time was n't a fluke. t was never allowed to pay the bill, neither online nor by phone. I have n't tried the 'pay by check ' option, nor will I, because I 'm quite certain that XXXX are bogus. It 's clear to me that this is simply a scam to get people to buy these worthless products and there is no intent to help the people pay the outstanding bill. Since none of your menus above cover my situation, I chose 'communication tactics ' and ''used obscene ... ', since I have to choose something.

Today, XX/XX/XXXX, I did call, I C Systems Collections, phone number : XXXX in order to clarify a place for collection. I spoke to XXXX, ID # XXXX in order to find out about a placed collection for {$150.00} which through the original creditor XXXX ( Cable/Cellular ), I C Systems Collections stated that they have sent me a notice, which I have never received. Then, I asked them to send me any information they have related to this collection and they denied to send it over via e-mail because of their policies. I did call once again and I spoke to XXXX ID # XXXX, I explained my situation, XXXX transfer me to her supervisor, supervisor 's name XXXX, ID # XXXX which I repeated once again my concern in receiving all this documentation via e-mail and mail. He misinterpreted my communication trying to play around with the wording. I asked for more than three times to send via mail a re-validation notice, month of the debt, and any valid information related to this collection. I have also requested a copy of their policies, no proper answers being responded. Please help me to understand my rights under the Federal Trade Commission. What is my next step, I need to clear this matter from my credit report. Is it e-mail a legal way of communicating? Why I C Systems Collections can not send me all information on their files related to this matter? I need to dispute this matter on a civil and polite way in order to be protected under Federal Fair Correction Act. This matter is causing that my student loan to be held which is nu-acceptable. Sincerely,

This has been going on for over 2 years now. XXXX is trying to collect a " debt '' that doesn't exist. On XX/XX/XXXX I moved to another address, and completed a " transfer of service '' from my old address to the current one. When I first received a notice that I owed a past due balance ( this was around XXXX of XXXX ), I called XXXX and they apologized for the inconvenience, and assured me that the balance would be removed. Several months later, I got a similar notice. I called XXXX again. They advised me that there was no balance showing on the account for ANY of the previous addresses, and that I should disregard. Fast forward to mid XXXX, I start receiving notices from XXXX XXXX XXXX ( Debt collector associated with XXXX ) that I owed over {$400.00}. On XX/XX/XXXX, I filed a complaint with Consumer Financial Protection Bureau and on XX/XX/XXXX the issue was supposedly resolved. XXXX XXXX stated this in response to the complaint I filed : " ... .In response to this complaint, XXXX XXXX has closed this account in our office and returned it to XXXX XXXX If you have any further inquiries regarding this matter, you may contact XXXX directly. We sincerely hope this represents a satisfactory resolution to your concerns .... '' Now, I'm getting a notice from I.C. System Inc for the SAME EXACT THING. I do NOT owe XXXX any amount of money. They are mistakenly trying to collect a debt that I do NOT owe. They have told me SEVERAL times that " this issue would be resolved '' or " I don't see any past due balances on your account '', etc FOR OVER 2 YEARS NOW.

XXXX XXXX has been hired as a debt collector for XXXX to collect a debt of {$3500.00} that was fraudulently made in my name in XX/XX/XXXX of this year. In XX/XX/XXXX, XXXX XXXX would call me from a different phone number almost every day. They would not identify themselves as a debt collector. They would ask if they were speaking with " XXXX XXXX '' and I would confirm. Then they would ask me to a verify an address on file. The majority of the time I would not confirm or deny the address as being correct ( it was incorrect ). Instead, I would state that I need to know who is calling me and asking for this information before I could respond to that question. They would then respond that they could not tell me that until I gave them the information they needed. I would eventually hang up on them after stating that I do not give out information over the phone to people I do not know and if they would not identify themselves, I would not be providing them with any information. On one occasion, I did respond that the address on file that they have is incorrect. When they asked for a correct answer, I, again, refused to give that answer unless they identified themselves. They, again, refused to identify themselves without me giving them a correct address. Finally, I told them that I was going to report them to the FBI and that they need to stop calling me if they are unwilling to identify themselves. I did make a report with the FBI in the second half of XX/XX/XXXX listing a complaint with the above information and two of the phone numbers I had for them.

In early XXXX, XXXX I received notice via the US Mail from I.C. System Inc that they are collecting debt owed to XXXX XXXX. They claim that amount past due was {$1000.00}. This is XXXX of many attempts from several collection companies to fraudulently collect funds from me. The first attempt was from XXXX in XXXX, XXXX. They claimed I owed funds to XXXX. I immediately contacted XXXX and was told I did not owe any funds and they had not requested debt collection from XXXX. XXXX assigned to me a complaint reference number XXXX. I later was contacted by XXXX XXXX XXXX saying I owed funds to XXXX / XXXX. I filed a complaint with the office of Indiana Attorney General on XX/XX/XXXX. The XXXX office investigated but XXXX XXXX XXXX did not respond. Then on XX/XX/XXXX I received notice from XXXX ( another debt collection company ) saying I owed {$1000.00} to XXXX XXXX XXXX. So the attempt by I.C. System to fraudulently collect past due funds is the fourth different debt collection company! On XX/XX/XXXX, I sent an email to I.C. System, Inc stating that no funds are due. They did not respond to my email. On XX/XX/XXXX I was notified by XXXX ( credit report XXXX XXXX ) that I.C. System notified XXXX that I owe {$1000.00}. I notified XXXX and they have filed for a dispute investigation of fraud. The case number assigned is XXXX. This issue has progressed over several years and through four debt collection companies, all of which are fraudulent. Thanks for any action you can take to contact this latest company I.C. System, Inc and ask them to cease and desist.

In XXXX of XXXX, I contacted XXXX ( XXXX ) to provide internet services at my new address. With a XXXX agent, I initiated services via a phone conversation. Only when trying to activate the internet modem did XXXX XXXX services come up on my computer ( NOT XXXX ). In short, XXXX could not activate the internet modem as XXXX already had control of the line ( from a previous tenant ). At that point, I cancelled all services with XXXX. I then contacted XXXX to switch existing internet services. At no point did I have access or use XXXX internet services or receive any equipment from XXXX. In late XX/XX/XXXX, I received a bill from XXXX in the mail stating that I owed {$50.00}. There was not line item to justify this billing amount, or explanation for why they stated that I needed to pay them {$50.00}. I immediately contacted XXXX, who apologized and issued me a credit. I never received an explanation for why I was billed for {$50.00}. I told them that this was fraud to bill me when I never received or used services and the bill contained no line item expense for the {$50.00} amount. I received a {$50.00} account credit ( proof via e-mail ). In early XX/XX/XXXX, I received a bill from I.C. Systems ( a debt collector ) informing me that they were attempting to collect a {$50.00} debt on behalf of XXXX. This statement told me that I had a " Total amount of the debt now : {$50.00} '' I am being fraudulently billed and harassed by XXXX ( XXXX ) and/or its agents. I ask for the CFPB 's help dealing with this matter, as a debt collector has contacted me.

I also submitted a debt collection complaint for the company this collector is representing, XXXX. I had never received a bill from the original company, nor an email, nor a phone call to know if I even had a debt. My account was closed and paid in full over the amount of the said bill. I have a forward in with the mail and informed consent delivery, so I have never seen or received anything from XXXX. So today I got a text from this company called IC System telling me I owed a debt and to click on a link. I thought it was a scam so I called XXXX to tell them and sure enough they said they sold the debt without even telling me in any way or giving me a right to dispute it. I asked them why they would go to this extreme when I was a customer for 10 years and they had all my info? They said they would usually send out a final bill and courtesy call, but in this case that wasn't certain. They never said anything was attempted. XXXX wouldn't take payment because it had been sold. I have had identity theft and fraud and this is completely negligent and unprofessional for them to sell my account. Furthermore, the debt collector IC systems wanted me to click on a link to enter my zipcode as a password. I don't even know who these people are, I never saw any verification letter and how do I know some tracking device or malware isn't going to be put on my phone. I want restitution for this ridiculous matter that could have been taken care of if I knew about it. I am not paying a debt collector, not am I giving any info to someone for something I don't owe.

On XXXX I was contacted at XXXX I missed the call and called back at XXXX. I was then told that they had an important business matter to discuss with me and they needed me to verify my address. I then told them I would n't give them any of my personal information, they called me and should have that information. They then continued to claim this matter is affect my credit, and if I do n't resolve it there would heavy consequences. This is odd, because I have been building my credit since my bankruptcy and have really been pushing to keep it clean. I then explained that I have no outstanding debts. I then told them I know what your doing ; I will not give any of my information to a thief that is planning on destroying my good name. I then auto rejected their number immediately. I then received XXXX more calls in the following XXXX weeks. I Called and reported this to the local sheriffs office in XXXX Utah on XXXX XXXX 2015. I gave him the number and the spill they told me. He said if anything comes up on my credit to then call him again, and he would give me a case number to fight the charges. I called XXXX XXXX XXXX 2015 at XXXX and told them I know what they are doing, I demanded that they remove my number from their call list. I also told them I reported them to the local sheriffs department and if any charges are placed on my credit by there company IC Systems. I would take action against. He claimed his company is n't fraudulent, and I confirmed that he understood what I said and that the harassing calls would stop he agreed. I then hung up.

When checking my credit score in early XX/XX/XXXX I became aware that since XX/XX/XXXX a {$160.00} debt in my name had been in collection by IC System, on behalf of XXXX XXXX. I had not received any written notification of this debt collection at my current address, where I have lived for 3.5 years. I disputed the collection on my credit report, since it seemed to be a mistake. But when XXXX refused to dismiss the collection from my credit score, I contacted IC System today ( XXXX XXXX, XXXX ). IC System confirmed that this amount in collection is a small outstanding cable bill from my previous residence, where I have not lived since XX/XX/XXXX. Obviously I would have paid this amount if it was fairly owed and I was made aware of it. My mail was forwarded for 12 months after my move, and this is the first I have heard of a debt from XXXX XXXX. Unfortunately the damage to my credit will cost me much more than the disputed amount. Despite my current address being publicly available, XXXX XXXX and IC System made no attempt to contact me about the collection at my current address. Thus, for four months, I was completely unaware of the collection attempt and the negative affect it has had on my credit score. Surely, a debt collection agency should be required to contact individuals at their current address when it has been publicly available for many years. It should not be the responsibility of the consumer to do their work for them, and accept demerits to their credit scores in the process. Thank you for your help investigating this issue.

We subscribed to XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX for our home in XXXX, Florida for a period of time during XXXX After an in-person consultation, we agreed to do a basic service focused on keeping our lawn green and provided a credit card for payment. The service went on as planned, but we noticed areas in our lawn where their services did not result in the intended improvement. The Manager sent folks out for additional treatments on these areas as a result. There were no extra charges as these were a remedy for their lack of performance. At some point during these extra treatments, their dispatch team decided to also send people to put down other treatments. Since they often visit during the hours we work away from the home and were coming by frequently, we didn't check with them each time to see what the treatment was and whether it was something we agreed to. Browsing my credit card statement one day, I noticed that they had been double charging my account vs. the agreed upon price across multiple months. Their phone team claimed it was an issue on their end and said it would be refunded. Over the next month, it wasn't and then they transferred me to a different representative when I called. That person said it was for additional services that I signed up for and when I said that we hadn't signed up for anything, they said that their notes said we did and it was up to us to pay them. We absolutely did not want anything other than the lawn fertilization and should not be held responsible for the poor management of people by their local team.

When COVID started in 2020, I was unaware that XXXX had inaccurate banking information for me. They sent letters of notice to a wrong address, so I had zero knowledge that my payments weren't going through. When I saw my account was inactive, I tried calling via phone but could not get through to anyone. I tried emailing, but I was told to call. I called multiple times, was left on hold, received a voicemail box where I left a message, or received an automated message saying to call back during business hours. I emailed multiple times explaining I was unsuccessful in getting through to anyone and that my working hours interfered with the times available for me to call. I asked them to call me directly via email since I was not able to get in touch on the phone, but I never received a call back. I received a letter in the mail from a debt collector stating I owe {$470.00}. I tried disputing this, but they sent another letter claiming the charges are valid. I am looking at the list of charges sent, and I do not believe this is accurate. I had paid a {$50.00} membership fee and it shows that 2 payments were successful at {$45.00} each, totally {$90.00}. It shows my total charges of services received totals {$370.00}. {$370.00} - {$90.00} - {$50.00} = {$220.00}. I am no longer with this bank, so I can not access my records to verify that the other charges did fail, but I am willing to pay the {$220.00} since I was provided with the breakdown of charges from the debt collector, but I do not agree to pay {$470.00}.

I received a letter from IC Systems in XX/XX/XXXX. The letter is dated XX/XX/XXXX. The letter stated that I owed {$59.00} with an account number to XXXX. I was a current customer with XXXX at the time. I called the agency and they stated they received the account 5 days ago and that is was from equipment from XXXX. I told them that there was a mistake that all equipment from me moving was returned. I then called XXXX and asked them why they did not reach out to me regarding a balance when I am still a customer, I receive a bill to my current address, and transferred services when I moved. XXXX advised me that they mailed a bill to my old address by mistake. I informed them that I returned the equipment. A representative stated that she would research it and give me a call. I never received a call and called to follow up on the research. I received a notification that the collection agency reported the {$59.00} on my credit on XX/XX/XXXX. I disputed this with XXXX. XXXX never or the collection agency called me back to validate the debt or provide me an option after I disputed the debt to make a payment to avoid any reporting to my credit. XXXX clearly admitted to making a mistake. If I am still a customer and had an up to date account why wouldn't they mail it to my address that I provided and still used? Why did they wait over 2 years to report to collections and why did no one ever return my phone calls to state they are still collecting. This was extremely unfair to the consumer that is blind sided by a debt not owed.

IC System a collection agency which apparently has a history of false, wrong collections with strong-arm tactics, contacted me by letter a few months ago claiming I must pay a debt of {$500.00} from XXXX of 2020 ( a year ago, in other words ) for XXXX XXXX, which is not me, not my name. My name is XXXX XXXX. XXXX lives at XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX XXXX, XXXX , Florida XXXX, about XXXX miles from me. I live in XXXX XXXX, CA. I wrote back to IC Systems telling them they are wrong in contacting me as I am not XXXX XXXX nor do I know anything about her debt, and to stop bothering me or I would take additional steps to get relief. Yesterday I got a sdecond letter from IC System saying they got my letter and will honor my request not to contact me again, BUT I STILL OWE THEM {$500.00} FOR the debt to XXXX, apparently a TV cable service company atXXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX XXXX TX XXXX. I will upload a copy of the bill for {$500.00} enclosed in the second letter from IC System which has XXXX name + address as well as XXXX XXXX 's name and address + phone and her account number : XXXX. IC System has meanwhile ruined my credit rating by filing a collection action with the 3 big credit reporting agencies -- see my attached notice from XXXX XXXX, notifying me of their damaging action and false collection effort on XX/XX/XXXX, months after my letter explaining they were wrong in pursuing me, the wrong person, in their collection efforts. So they have demonstrated BAD FAITH by ignoring my facts and pursuing harmful action against me.

According to the Fair Credit Reporting Act, Section 609 ( a ) ( 1 ) ( A ), you are required by federal law to verify - through the physical verification of the original signed consumer contract - any and all accounts you post on a credit report. Otherwise, anyone paying for your reporting services could fax, mail or email in a fraudulent account. I demand to see Verifiable Proof ( an original Consumer Contract with my Signature on it ) you have on file of the accounts listed below. Your failure to positively verify these accounts has hurt my ability to obtain credit. Under the FCRA, unverified accounts must be removed and if you are unable to provide me a copy of verifiable proof, you must remove the accounts listed below. A merchant can not charge a debit card or a credit card without your permission they are situations where merchants may put through a charge, but they are rare and usually involve other issues. On XX/XX/XXXX and XXXX, a person from XXXX contacted me via email. Since directly after speaking with him, my credit card was charged using a card that I use for a one-time payment in XX/XX/2019. With that said, I provided zero account information during our conversation. I requested from him to tell me exactly what he needed from me in writing.

I was recently informed of a collections account, with this company listed as the owner of the debt. I phoned them to get clarification on the account. This was after submitting a dispute with XXXX as well as directly on their ( I.C. Systems ) website. I was finally connected with a representative and after what seemed like amiable conversation, where I was told that I owe an amount well over the dollar amount that I remember being delinquent and once I began attempting to collect information on how to resolve the debt, I was hung up on. I phoned the company again ( time # 2 ), only to have a different representative this time ; one who acted as though she was unable to reference any proof of the prior conversation. Upon repeating all of my personal information ( very uncomfortable ), I was told by this representative that the company in which I originally had the account ( the one that is now in " collections '' ) would be REobtaining said account, because the debt collections agency would have had it for more than one year. She ( this second rep ) suggested that I phone the original company ( XXXX XXXX ). Of course I phoned XXXX and they referred me back to the collections agency. I then phoned the agency for a THIRD time, just to be transferred to twice and then hung up on AGAIN. It 's quite clear that this company has no intentions of working with me to educate myself on the validity of this account, Or to resolve this account or collect payment. Obviously this only makes me question the validity of this collection.

Upon several requests since the company received the collection from XXXX XXXX. They still have never sent me an itemized bill or allowed me to dispute the bill at all. I called in again to see why XXXX XXXX or their company wasn't replying to the arbitration request and found out that XXXX XXXX is refusing to speak to me about the account. Claiming that I need to call IC system collections agency. Yet that agency refuses to give me any details in relation to the account other than I owe them money. When requesting itemized statements, they claimed that I was supposed to request that before. Which I did, 3 separate times. They only give me a final bill with no relation to what is owed and why it's owed. The reps absolutely refuse to give any dispute options and when I requested to file disputes, they claimed I can't do it and that I needed to file the dispute 30 days after I got the notice ( which was the final bill and not the itemized statement that I had requested multiple times ). Reps claimed I couldn't do anything and that I needed to pay the debt. I noted CFPB regulations don't have any time limits on consumer filing disputes. But the rep claimed their company makes their own policies and that I can't file any dispute or request statements from XXXX XXXX because I should have done that before. ( again, I did it before ) and it was never sent to me. Just the final bill. Rep refused to get me to a manager and IC company is the recipient of the XXXX case # XXXX and they are not responding to arbitration either.

I would like to file a complaint against a collection company called IC Systems INC for adding this fraudulent account to my Experian Credit Report. I never heard of this company before and I never received anything in the mail from this company nor did I receive a phone call from this company This 3rd party collection agency is attempting to collect and allege debt from a company called IC Systems Inc in the amount of {$650.00}. IC Systems Inc. is required by the state of NC to provide a copy of the License and per their website, it does not show a copy of their company License to collect any debt in the state of North Carolina This collection company NEVER once mailed me, a consumer any information pertaining to this alleged debt. This company has violated 15 USC 1692g- Validation of debts because as a consumer I was never given a chance to ask for validation of the debt. This collection company is also in violation of the 15 U.S. Code 1692c - Communication in connection w ith debt collection which states " Without the prior consent of the consumer given directly to the debt collector or the express permission of a court of competent jurisdiction, a debt collector may not communicate with a consumer in connection with the collection of any debt '' I will not contract with this company and I demand that this fraudulent account be removed off of my XXXX Report and I would like to say they do not have my written expressed consent to having this adverse and fraudulent account report to ANY of the major credit bureaus.

I mailed a certified letter to XXXX XXXX XXXX on XX/XX/2020 disputing the collection account for a XXXX XXXX account in the amount of {$320.00}. By the way, I DO NOT ever recall having a XXXX XXXX account. I received a response letter from XXXX XXXX XXXX dated on XX/XX/2020 stating the account has been recalled from their office and returned back to XXXX XXXX on XXXX, please see the attached documents. This account was then bought by IC System Collections agency as it showed back up on my credit report within a few weeks. I mailed a certified letter to IC System on XX/XX/2020. The certified mail receipt number is XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX and was received by IC System Collections office on XX/XX/2020 at XXXX per the United States Postal Service tracking site. To date, I have not received a response from IC System, they have not provided any documentation to prove that this collection account belongs to me. I also created a dispute with XXXX and they are stating that it has been verified ; however, again, no documentation has been provided to me to support their claim and I do not recall ever having a XXXX XXXX account. This complaint is in regards to IC System Collections as no response has ever been provided to me. It is my understanding that if validation is requested, the collection company must respond within 30 days or delete it from my credit report. IF THE PRIOR COLLECTION COMPANY, CREDENCE RESOURCE MANAGEMENT WAS UNABLE TO VALIDATE THE DEBT, HOW IS IC SYSTEM COLLECTIONS NOW ABLE TO VALIDATE THE DEBT?

IC Systems collection is reporting a collection on a balance of XXXX that is incorrect. First the account has been settled with XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX and I have the letter that the account is closed and settled. It was a XXXX/XXXX bill. IC Systems is still trying to collect on the same closed account and the balance is not only incorrect, but I called them 4 times in the last 30 days to try to get them to correct it as well as disputing with XXXX. IC Systems continues to notify XXXX the information is correct. Even after me providing the closed and settled account letter from XXXX. XXXX has acknowledged the account is closed and settled. Even though IC Systems is taking their time resolving the collections on my credit report, the amount is incorrect. Even when I log into IC Systems web page it still tries to collect the wrong amount as well as the settlement offered is higher than than the actual balance owed. It took XXXX a year to finally admit that I they have had my equipment returned and finally credited my account. I still owed a balance of {$370.00}. IC Systems is reporting I owe {$610.00} and offers a settlement of {$480.00}. This is the only collection I have against me and it is being unfairly and wrongfully being reported. IC Systems contact is XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX XXXX, MN XXXX. The reference number is XXXX. The account number associated with the XXXX account is XXXX. IC Systems has caused me undue hard and unfair damage to my credit report after repeated attempts to have them resolve it.

I received a notice on XX/XX/XXXX from I.C. System, Inc., stating that I have a delinquent account that has been turned over to this collection agency. I responded with a 30 day validation request on XX/XX/XXXX. I ask for an agreement with a creditor that authorises this collection company to collect on this debt. I also asked for the agreement that has my signature that says I agreed to assume this debt. I asked for valid copies of the debt agreement stating the amount of the debt and the interest charges. I also asked for proof that the statue of limitations wasn't expired as well as a complete payment history on the account. I also asked for their lisence that showed they were allowed to collect in my state as well as their licence numbers and their registered agent. I did not receive a response in 30 days. I did however receive a response on XX/XX/XXXX that stated communications are ceased and attached to that letter was a phone bill that was dated XX/XX/XXXX through XX/XX/XXXX. There was no information verifying or validating that this debt belongs to me or that I am responsible to pay this company. I sent a second validation letter to them on XX/XX/XXXX to have this debt validated as mine. I did not receive any response from this company. I sent a 3rd and final validation request on XX/XX/XXXX. This was sent certified mail. They received this letter Validation request on XX/XX/XXXX. It has been longer than 30 days and I have not received a response. I still have not received any validation from this company.

I was a victim of Identity Theft in XXXX. My identity has been stolen, through distribution of my SS # numerous times between XXXX and XXXX. My identity was used to open an account with XXXX XXXX in XXXX, under my name in XXXX. Received notice of debt collection on my credit report from XXXX on XX/XX/XXXX. I filed a police report on XX/XX/XXXX and notified debt collector, IC Systems, of the theft with letter and copy of police report on XX/XX/XXXX. I noted with review of my credit report in XXXX that the collection was still on my credit report and so I called XXXX XXXX. They stated it was out of their hands and to contact IC Systems. IC Systems did not take any action until I called them later in XXXX and sent a follow-up letter on XX/XX/XXXX. They replied with a letter dated XX/XX/XXXX that they will no longer pursue collection of the debt to XXXX XXXX. I assumed this would take care of the problem. It was brought to my attention in XXXX of XXXX that the debt collection from IC Systems was STILL on my credit reports. I called IC Systems and they indicated they have no record of them sending me the letter dated XX/XX/XXXX. I resent them their letter and the police report of XXXX/XXXX/XXXX and they responded by sending me a bill for the debt of {$1500.00} on XX/XX/XXXX. I called them and they would not talk to me. They sent another letter XX/XX/XXXX indicating they can not reach out to the creditor and would not provide me with any contact information I had requested. Same with letter dated XX/XX/XXXX.

This is a complaint regarding a notice I received from a law firm about a debt I incurred to a medical team. The problem is : this is not a debt I owe. The original bill was paid in full and I have the canceled checks proving the doctor 's office cashed them. Apparently, the invoice was submitted to a collection agency even though it had been paid, then re-sold to other companies, in what I assume was a list of junk debt. Most of these companies, even though they list their businesses as debt recovery services, do n't recover anything and simply repackage and resell the list to other debt recovery services that do the same. The last company to obtain the list, IC System XXXX Inc, lists their business address in XXXX, MN allegedly hired the firm of XXXX XXXX LLC in XXXX, MA to recover the already paid debt. I find it disgusting that I have to waste my time, energy, and money to fight a claim that should n't even be a claim. I am tired of all these companies washing their hands with rhetoric while stating that the claim looked legitimate at the time, or that they were conducting business based on the information given to them, blah, blah, blah. It should be illegal for companies to sell debt to XXXX another while making money on the backs of those individuals who ca n't afford to pay exorbitant medical bills. I will be contacting my state 's representatives on this matter to help circumvent this practice. This is nothing more than harassment, worse than telemarketers phone calls. At least I can hang up on them.

IC Systems has violated my consumer rights by continuing to furnish data to the consumer reporting agencies regarding an alleged debt as if they are the original creditor. They are violating federal law USC 1692e. They are falsely reporting information to the credit bureaus for an alleged debt not owed to ic systems.ic systems placed a collection on my consumer credit report without following the proper procedures and they are in VIOLATION of the following federal laws : 15 USC 1692G-I never received an initial communication from this debt collection company about the alleged debt or the ORIGINAL CREDITOR. I demand this debt to be removed from their system and from the credit bureaus systems immediately. The term creditor means any person who offers or extends credit creating a debt or to whom a debt is owed, but such term does not include any person to the extent that he receives an assignment or transfer of a debt in default solely for the purpose of facilitating collection of such debt for another. 15 U.S.C 1681c. ( a ) ( 5 ) Section States : no consumer reporting agency may make any consumer report containing any of the following items of information Any other adverse item of information, other than records of convictions of crimes which antedates the report by more than seven years. 15 U.S.C. 1681s-2 ( A ) ( 1 ) A person shall not furnish any information relating to a consumer to any consumer reporting agency if the person knows or has reasonable cause to believe that the information is inaccurate.

On XX/XX/XXXX an account was opened with XXXX XXXX in my name. The Account was opened in Michigan. XXXX ran my credit. On XX/XX/XXXX the account was closed for non payment. XXXX filed a collections report on my credit bureau in the amount of {$630.00}. The collections filing dropped my credit score 65 points. I was notified by my mortgage lender that there was a serious delinquency that impacted my mortgage approval. My mortgage lender provided me with the name of the collection agency, IC Systems in XXXX, MN. I contacted IC Systems, and proceeded to go through the information in their file. Even though none of the information in their file was correct, nor despite the fact they couldn't prove the debt was valid, they refused to remove their erroneous credit bureau filing. I contacted XXXX. They would only have me submit a claim of Identity theft. They refused to contact the collections agency to tell them to remove the information. Funny thing is I live in XXXX XXXX, and have for the last 10 years. During the whole time I've lived in LA I've been a customer of XXXX. How do they open a new account for a new customer on the other side of the country using my information when I'm a current customer? Do their systems not detect this? Anyway, XXXX XXXX refuses to remove the information unless IC Systems removes it.IC System won't remove it without XXXX paying them. This is wrong. I'm losing my mortgage and my deposit on the house of {$30000.00} because of this nonsense? This is just not right.

Further, it seems that the day after they received the letter, they reported the debt to another credit reporting agency rather than remove them until I have an opportunity to review and request documentation and dispute.

He told that he will send a box with an activation code, which I need to fix for the internet to start. He never shipped me the box and as a result I never installed or used XXXX. The XXXX XXXX sent me a bill of {$100.00}. I called them atleast 3 times and explained that I never got a box and as a result could not use their internet. The first customer rep was very rude and told that I even though I havent used it I need to pay. I called again exactly 2 days later the customer representative was kind and he went through lot of data and realized that I havent used their internet service and he told me to cancel the bill. But after a month I got a call from XXXX and this lady was very very rude and told me to pay the bill or will sent it to collection center. I requested her to look into the data. She said I dont want to look into anything and it was incumbent upon me to prove that I havent used it. I provided her all the proof but She sent it to collection center. Three collection centers are involved till now. To the first and second collection I called them and then provided all the proof. They stopped. Now its referred to third collection center. Now I am done with this XXXX false tactic to extract money from me. This is torture and frustrating. The third collection center which they have referred to is I C System Inc. ( phone # XXXX ). This is very frustrating and please help me.

A few years ago I stopped paying my XXXX XXXX XXXX phone bill because my significant other stopped paying his half and I could n't afford to pay both. Eventually, I called and talked with a representative to see if I could make payments to pay it off ( since I was young and knew good credit is essential ). She told me I could n't make payments to them it would have to be the full amount and I expressed that I could n't afford it. So she asked me did I want her to go ahead and send it to a debt collector so that I could start making payment with them since that 's why I was calling in the first place and I replied yes. Months later I was contacted by a debt collecting agency. They sent me a letter in the mail I was n't surprised because this is what the representative told me would happen. So I called the number listed and we came up with a amount I could pay back and a payment plan where I pay {$75.00} until it was paid off which I did last year. I paid {$110.00} on XXXX/XXXX/15 and every month after that {$75.00} would automatically be taken out of my account. That was the agreement until it was completely paid off. Once it was paid in full ... .they stopped taking the money out of my account and I received my last letter from them saying it was paid and never heard anything about this debt again. Until recently I received another letter for the same exact debt which later popped up on my credit report. I still have a few letters from the debt company that contacted me and bank statements.

Please review previous complaint, case number XXXX. I believe the current issue is related to this case. During an interview last week ( XXXX XXXX, XXXX ) with a federal agent to renew my security clearance with the federal government, I was made aware of negative entries on my XXXX credit report, specifically XXXX references to a XXXX XXXX account that is supposedly in collections. The dollar amount is similar to a previous case ( See my complaint, case # XXXX ) where a debt was mistakenly attributed to me and I was targeted by a collection agency. As you can see from the attached documentation and from the notes in the previous case, this debt was never mine and was eventually cleared ( supposedly ). In a letter dated XXXX XXXX, XXXX, the Collection agency stated that XXXX XXXX notified them that the account had been cancelled and removed. I am not sure the XXXX accounts listed on my current credit report are related or not. However, I have never been contacted by XXXX XXXX at any time, and I have never been contacted by a collection agency since this issue was supposedly cleared last year. The reference to it on my credit report is my only indication of a problem. I have already disputed both accounts with XXXX. This debt is not, and never has been mine. I know nothing about it other than what I see on my credit report. However, now it is directly affecting my credit rating, and worse, it may potentially affect my security clearance and therefore my prospects for future employment.

I moved out of an apartment where I had XXXX internet and cable service. It was month to month with no contract. I moved in Late XXXX, early XX/XX/XXXX. I made my last payment XX/XX/XXXX. I have an email thanking me for the payment. I called to disconnect the service and was given instructions to return the equipment to avoid additional charges. I returned to a XXXX store in XXXX, Ga. I called back to confirm receipt of the equipment and no outstanding balance. I was told there isn't a balance " at this time '', and they could see where the equipment was received in. I provided a forwarding address, and they had my email and phone number since XXXX. I have not received anything more than promotional emails from XXXX until today XX/XX/XXXX getting an alert that my credit report changed. I looked at it and there was a collection from I.C. Systems with an approx. {$250.00} balance. I called to verify and was explained that it was from XXXX. I explained everything stated above to them but they were only interested in collecting the debt, even offering a settlement. I told them I didn't feel that it was correct. And if there is was a balance, I should have been notified prior to it being placed on my credit as a collection. I have had no notice of a past due balance for the entire time. This has to be some type of violation of consumer rights. It places a negative impact on my credit report and it is a unfounded charge that they mysteriously generated after almost 2 years, without notice.

XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX XX/XX/2023 I C System, Inc . XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, MN XXXX To Whom It May Concern, I am writing this letter in response to the notice I received from I C System regarding a debt that I allegedly owe. I am requesting that you provide me with all legal documents that prove the validity of the debt. As a responsible consumer, I take my financial obligations seriously and I am willing to pay any legitimate debts that I owe. However, I can not do so without proof that the debt is valid and that I am responsible for it. Under the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act, I have the right to request validation of the debt before making any payments. Therefore, I am requesting that I C System provide me with the following documents : 1. The original creditor 's name and address 2. The account number associated with the debt 3. The date the debt was incurred 4. The amount of the debt, including any fees or interest charges 5. Any written agreements, contracts, or other legal documents that support the validity of the debt I request that this information be sent to me within 30 days of receiving this letter. If I do not receive this information within the specified time frame, I will assume that you are unable to provide the requested documentation and will consider the debt to be invalid. I appreciate your prompt attention to this matter and look forward to receiving the requested documentation. Sincerely, XXXX XXXX

The account I am filing a complain about is appearing on my report from a company called I.C. SYSTEM, INC. Their contact information, according to what's on my XXXX credit report is : phone number is ( XXXX ) XXXX ; XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX MN XXXX. The account number they have listed on my credit report is : XXXX. This remaining balance of {$380.00} ( Ticket # : XXXX ; spoke with a rep named XXXX who processed my payment ) that was previously associated with this account was PAID IN FULL to the original debt-holder, XXXX, over the phone on XX/XX/XXXX @ XXXX ( PST ). I.C. SYSTEM, INC. is still reporting a FALSE balance of {$830.00} on credit report as of XX/XX/XXXX. Before the balance was updated randomly to this amount, it was {$910.00} reported, also falsely since XXXX of XXXX. I do not have a balance owed to XXXX anymore, period. I do not have any open or closed accounts with a balance under my name for this company AT ALL. I.C. SYSTEM, INC. is fraudulently still applying a non-existent debt on my credit report every month, despite NUMEROUS attempts from XXXX to notify them the former balance of only {$380.00} has been paid in full. At this point, this is my absolute last resort because every time I call I.C. SYSTEM, INC they tell me XXXX has not updated them of the balance being paid in full. But every time I spoke to XXXX they continuously uphold that I do not have a debt owed to them. I also have proof the previous account which was active in XXXX has a XXXX BALANCE.

I had an account removed successfully from my credit report around XX/XX/XXXX from creditor XXXX in the amount of {$700.00}. They illegally reinserted this debt by not sending me a reinsertion letter on bureaus end or creditors end but this is well within my rights. I disputed the account again and sent credit bureaus reinsertion letter once I seen that they reinserted this account on XX/XX/XXXX also I disputed the inaccuracies on this same account and ask them to remove it. I waited XXXX days for bureaus to investigate and nothing was removed I sent another follow up letter out to them XX/XX/XXXX still nothing. I also sent a debt validation letter to the collection agency that is reporting this account asking them to validate this account or remove it the collection agency sent me a bill for validation which a bill is not validating a debt, they also sent me a letter stating that XXXX still owns the debt but the collection agency is the one that is reporting this inaccurate information on my credit report how could that be? This debt has also been reaged open date has been changed since reinsertion. I have now sent a refusal to validate debt letter to the collection agency XX/XX/XXXX in response to their bill for my validation of debt request. I also sent a intent to file a complaint letter to the bureaus XX/XX/XXXX for failing to investigate and still reporting inaccurate information on my credit report. I know my rights and that is why I am now filing my complaint with you!

This morning ( XX/XX/XXXX ) I got a notification from XXXX that a new collection was added to my credit report on XXXX. Since I am trying to prevent any new collections to my credit and trying to fix them before they get to this point, I went to this right away. The collection showed up as I.C. System, Inc XXXX XXXX. XXXX XXXX, XXXX XXXX MN ) for an amount of {$100.00}. No other information showed up for the business I owed the amount to, date of services, or anything. I didn't recognize anything and knew I had never received any documentation from I.C. System for any collection activity. I looked them up right away on XXXX and contacted them to see what they could provide in terms of who I may have owed, when they would have sent me any information about it, etc. I called XXXX this morning ( XX/XX/XXXX at exactly XXXX XXXX central time ) and spoke to someone who asked my name a few times and where I was located then put me on hold and transferred me without telling me why. I was then transferred to XXXX who again asked me the same questions and then told me she could not find any account for me. I asked if they would be removing this account from my credit report since there was no information on me and she said she couldn't do that. The incorrect information will be staying on my credit report even though it is not my account. I am assuming that it is just a matter of time before it is added onto the other 2 credit reporting agencies and lowers my score on those as well.

On XX/XX/XXXX, I noticed I received a tradeline on my Credit report from IC System for an account I do not recognize. I immediately contacted this company in writing and advised I am disputing this debt and they need to provide me with a validation of the debt. This personal letter was mailed via USPS Certified Mail and arrived to the said agency on XX/XX/XXXX. Ive obtained all receipts and signatures that my letter was accepted by the agency. By FCRA and FDCPA consumer laws 609 ( c ) ( 2 ) E, 611 ( a ) 1 ( A ), ( 15 U.S.C.1681i ) they are to delete their tradeline and cease collection activity due to them not providing validation within the 30 day time frame they had from the initial correspondence I sent to them. They failed to respond. I pulled my credit again on XX/XX/XXXX and their tradeline is still there. They can not legally claim this is verified to the credit reporting agencies, but they have ignored my request for validation. They are required to provide me with proof of this debt by law upon receiving written request within a reasonable time frame or they no longer have a right to report this or collect on it. This company has never sent me a notification advising of this debt and has never provided me with my right to dispute/validate. This company is in violation of the FDCPA and the FCRA. They need to be investigated. Please assist me in my request to have this illegitimate negation to my Credit score removed, as they have turned a blind-eye to my requests.

I recently ran my credit report to discover why I was denied a loan and discovered there was an erroneously report debt by IC Systems regarding a charged off Debt with XXXX XXXX XXXX. I contacted IC Systems of XXXX XXXX, MN and was told by their rep XXXX, that XXXX XXXX XXXX initially reported the debt as paid, but was then told by XXXX XXXX XXXX that my bank reversed the payment to XXXX XXXX XXXX somewhere around XX/XX/XXXX. I pulled my bank Statement to investigate and found the information given to me by IC systems rep XXXX was incorrect as my bank statement reflects the payment was debited from my checking account. In addition, the amount IC systems reported on my credit report is inaccurate. In addition, I contacted XXXX XXXX XXXX regarding this false debt reported and found that I didn't owe them anything and that any outstanding amounts were paid ( XXXX XXXX XXXX is sending confirmation via mail as well ). As a matter of fact, I changed my cable service and internet to XXXX XXXX XXXX in XXXX, and the XXXX XXXX XXXX rep confirmed that if I had any outstanding collection amounts owed to XXXX XXXX XXXX at that time, I would have been required to pay them up front before any new services was acquired. I contacted IC Systems again to inform them, and I sent documentation to prove this, and they could easily verify this information with XXXX XXXX XXXX, of which I believe that have not. I want this entry removed from my credit report and an apology sent to myself as well.

I received a collection account on my credit report on XX/XX/XXXX. On XX/XX/XXXX I called the collection agency IC System Inc to verify what this was. Initially I spoke with XXXX employee ID # XXXX who stated she could not find me in the system and when I gave her the account number as stated on my credit report she stated there was 10 people with that same account number. I asked for a supervisor which XXXX employee ID # XXXX tried to help verify the debt which is stated to be from XXXX which I have a current 5yr account with and owe them nothing. When I asked XXXX if they could send me the documention to verify this debt was mine with signatures and or proof that this belonged to me she stated " they do not have proper documentation to verify this debt belongs to me ''. Then I got transferred to another supervisor XXXX employee ID XXXX who stated that this is a debt directly from XXXX and they do not have the documentation to verify this debt and would have to request it from XXXX. I told her she can't report this debt and it needed to be removed. Per XXXX employee # XXXX this debt was opened in XX/XX/XXXX and sent to collections in XXXX of XXXX. IC Systems just recently bought this debt because it used to read as XXXX XXXX XXXX on my report which I sent them a letter to validate this debt in XXXX and it was removed because XXXX XXXX XXXX did not validate this debt in XXXX! Now IC Systems is reporting it 3 years later without proper documentation to validate it.

I am writing as a victim of the XX/XX/XXXX XXXX security breach. I have been attempting to validate suspicious activity on my credit report since the breach in which my contact and personal info were leaked. In the process of doing this, I submitted two requests for debt validation ( first on XX/XX/XXXX and second on XX/XX/XXXX ) to IC SYSTEMS INC and requested they only contact me by mail. The only response provided from the debt buyer is an invoice sent on XX/XX/XXXX, they have been unable to provide me with the original contract, account history and other documents requested. Furthermore after speaking with the original creditor, it was brought to my attention this debt has been misrepresented. The account was originally closed with the original creditor verbally on XX/XX/XXXX due to the sale then eventual death of the pet seen by XXXX XXXX XXXX. In violation of the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act, the collection agency has added charges and fees to the account and is falsely reporting new account activity such as payment delinquency. Also, in respect to Section 623 of the Fair Credit Reporting Act, furnishers must note delinquency within 90 days, list the same date of delinquency as the original creditor and notify consumers of negative listings within 30 days of reporting. All of these statues have been violated by IC SYSTEMS INC regarding this account. I have submitted this complaint in attempts to have this debt verified and this account investigated.

Certified bureau of the ( that is all that is showing for there name, on my credit report ) I have no idea who they are and I have never received credit, goods or services from this company. One day, I started received calls from this company, they were threatened to sue me and destroy my credit, if I did not pay them {$120.00}, The calls came back to back day and night, I finally gave in just to get some peace. But, I was under the belief, that if I paid them, the account would be cleared from my credit. They completely lied to me and extorted monies from me. The original account was from XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, I had XXXX when I went to the hospital and I guess this is some type of co pay. But, I never received a call or any mail for XXXX XXXX, stating I had a balance or requesting a payment. I was never given a chance to pay any outstanding balance, if any was due. IC SYSTEM has the same approach, they call night and day, threatening to sue and ruin my credit. They called and spoke to my friend, who answered the phone and told him, my personal business and what they were going to do to me. The original account was a XXXX XXXX account for {$67.00}. I don't have account with XXXX XXXX, nor do I owe them and monies and have never received a call form XXXX XXXX or any written notices or bills, stating I owe them monies or requesting monies. This is not my bill and has been placed on my credit report. I do not live in XXXX XXXX, I live in another city, in Louisiana

On or about XXXX XXXX, 2023. IC System fraudulently placed a Collection Account on my credit reports for XXXX XXXX and XXXX. The collection agency is reporting the debt on behalf of a storage company titled " XXXX XXXX ''. Per its credit reporting of the alleged debt. However, I do not have an account with XXXX XXXX. I did not authorize this account. I do not have a business relationship with this entity. IC System did not report to XXXX any previous payment history, monthly payment amount, and only reported that the account is a Collection Account, with no other verifying data provided. IC System has never contacted me by mail, phone or otherwise to inform me of the alleged debt. I do not have a Storage Unit with XXXX XXXX. I do not owe a debt to XXXX XXXX or IC System. IC System nor XXXX XXXX has never placed a inquiry of any on my credit reports. IC System knowingly and intentionally placed a Collection Account on my credit reports without verifying if the debt was valid or authorized. Further, IC System failed to report accurate information by not including data that is necessary to validate a debt. IC System has clearly placed another individuals account on my credit reports. Which has directly caused me undue hardship. XXXX immediately removed this fraudulent account from my credit reports. I request that XXXX and XXXX adhere to consumer law concerning not placing inaccurate information on my credit report that are not in good faith verified and authentic.

In XX/XX/2020, I received a letter form IC System for debt collection on behalf of XXXX XXXX XXXX which total in {$61.00}. I called the debt collector firm right away as I wasn't aware of any amount owed nor I do not recall I purchased anything from the hospital institution. The debt collector asked me if I want to dispute the transaction and submit a request to receive a itemized receipt from the hospital, I said yes. I stated that I do not have problem with paying the amount, but out of principle I just don't hand money out to anyone without proof of service/ receipt. The debt collector asked me look out for a letter from hospital that should arrive in few weeks. I waited, but never received the proof nor was contacted again. However, on XX/XX/XXXX, I got credit report stating that I have one derogatory account open for {$61.00} and that it was reported to the Credit Institution so it will affect my good standing! I called the debt collector again on XX/XX/XXXX and asked about this, they told me that they didn't receive any proof from the hospital but that there is nothing they can do to revert the claims reported on my credit! I paid the {$61.00} hoping it will go away from my credit report, but I am not certain and I found this tactic dirty and unfair. Even if I did own that amount, don't I have the right to see the proof before being reported to the credit bureau? Can you help me to solve this or advice me on the options I have? Thank you, XXXX XXXX

I sent I C Systems a debt validation letter on XX/XX/XXXX requesting that they send validation to me, they received the letter in XX/XX/2020 and to date did not respond. this collection account was on my credit report under a different collection agency before who I disputed and was able to get it removed from my credit reports, that previous collection agency had my current address because I was communicating with them and got the account removed, in XXXX I see I C Systems reporting the SAME DEBT TO MY CREDIT REPORT. I did not get a notice of the debt in the mail and i know they have my current address because they bought the debt from the previous collection agency and that agency would have given them all information they had to verify me AND the debt and for them to communicate with me, but I C Systems failed to do that. I sent them a debt validation letter, remind you I had to get their address from the listing on my credit reports NOT from them which is a shame, its been a month since they received my letter and to date I still have no response, no validation absolutely NOTHING! I cant even go on their website to see the account information because I dont have the full account number which I would have to get from them, I shouldnt have to call them, they are a debt collector they arent on my side and will try to tie me to a debt they dont even know I owe and neither do I. I want this account removed from both my XXXX and XXXX credit reports immediately

A debt collection agency known as " IC System '' appeared on my credit report displaying a past due debt of {$180.00} sent to collections under the original creditor of " AT & T UVERSE ''. This is not my debt. This very same debt and past due amount has appeared and been sent into collections within my credit report before, and in turn a previous debt collection agency known as " XXXX XXXX XXXX '' tried to collect the amount of {$180.00} from me in exchange for a removal of the collections debt from my report. After a dispute with credit bureaus and a complaint to the CFPB, this issue was resolved, and the debt was erased from my credit report. Now, it has resurfaced once again, but this time the debt collection agency known as " IC System '' is giving it their best shot. I asked them for information in regards to the debt for the purpose of verifying its validity and my role within it. They complied and provided me with the information. The debt verification info they provided was FALSE, and does NOT prove in any way or fashion that this debt belongs to me. I NEVER possessed and serviced any AT & T account under the dates and addresses they provided. At this point, I am suspecting to be a victim of identity fraud, therefore I have begun a fraudulent claims process with AT & T and have corresponded with my local police department. I have also placed a fraud alert upon my credit report. Yet, " IC System '' is still trying to collect a debt that is not mine.

On XX/XX/XXXX2020 I received several alerts about a new collection account that was added to my credit report from I.C System from a cable bill/company XXXX. At the time I was not familiar with the debt because I had never received anything in the mail from them. When I called them on XX/XX/XXXX2020 they told me that they did not have to send me anything because XXXX sent me a bill in XXXX. I told them it is my understanding that I should have received something from them via mail or a phone call even. I confirmed my name and contact info and requested that they send me something in the mail. I received my first letter from them on XX/XX/XXXX2020 which was 13 days after it posted to my account and 11 days from the original/first letter that they sent to me ( dated XXXX/XXXX/2020 ). After I received the letter I called on XX/XX/XXXX2020 and spoke to XXXX employer ID XXXX and he told me that they attempted to send letters to me on XX/XX/XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX, XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX but all of them were cancelled and never mailed out because of COVID. I then asked them how were they not able to mail me any to validate the debt but was able to send me to collections and he said because it was a different department. We that being said, per the FDCPA I didn't ; receive my letter until XX/XX/XXXX2020 which was 13 days after it posted to my credit report. That is a violation

I've been disputing fraud accounts on my credit report since XX/XX/2020. I keep sending multiple sets of letters to the bureaus and the creditors so the excuse of " we didn't get it '' doesn't happen. Furthermore, each letter is certified mail with tracking and each letter shows signed and delivered and yet the bureaus are still not taking any actions. The accounts are not showing in dispute nor are they removed from my report. The accounts always show up with different name variations and different account number variations and yet the bureaus seem to ignore the trend and let these fraud accounts affect my credit score. I have requested the investigation to be initiated and also verifiable proof to be submitted should the account claim to be mine. Not only have I not received any mail showing the verifiable proofs needed to justify the accounts to be on my report, I haven't even received any letters at all stating the investigations have begun. Per the FCRA and federal law, the process is supposed to be 30 days. 160 days later, I'm still here shelling out money for certified mail with no end in sight and no results to show. This is my last option before I take this up with my lawyers and sue for full compensations and damages incurred. Finally, it seems that when these complaints are submitted, the bureaus are using the excuse that they " can't confirm my identity '' to get away with taking no actions on my credit report. Please investigate this as well.

We requested the cancellation of the XXXX XXXX in XX/XX/2018 as we moved to another address that the company could no longer provide us with its service because there would be no coverage at the location and as they guided us we returned the equipment at XXXX and at the time the attendant said that we would not need proof as they would automatically download the system. after 1 month of our move the XXXX sent us the last charge for a month that was not even used since we had made the cancellation request and they did not do it, but to avoid fighting we accepted to make the payment and did not make any complaints. After 2 months again after making the payment this time the XXXX sends us a new charge, but this time it would be for the equipment that was returned by us since the beginning of the service cancellation request at XXXX and thus started our fight with this company that we thought they were suitable until now because we stayed for 2 years as their customers. And even after explaining over and over again that we had returned the equipment, they still insisted on charging us for something that we returned until now that month we had the unexpected news that this company put us in collection for something we shouldn't and that was returned and that if there was an error it was not on our part and in addition we tried to contact XXXX and they informed us that they no longer have the information because the XXXX removed us from the customer system.

I have contacted I C Systems INC about a debt in the amount of {$630.00} for XXXX pet hospital. The account is not mine and is how it is spealt in XXXX not english form. The account is for a dog named XXXX which I do own but anyone can make up a name for a dog & my neighbours have pets as well in the same apartment complex. I do not know who may have done this but I know without a doubt it was not done with my conscious, present authority at the location the contract signing took place. This is a case of identity theft and I have never opened an account/ entered into a contract nor have I ever signed a contract with my signature with XXXX pet hospital . I assume my brother entered into into the contract and he has paid for the account using his credit/debit card but upon speaking with him he does not remember. I have contacted the representatives and was constantly told " I don't know '' if a police report being submitted will result in removal of the fraudulent debt. XXXX has contacted me and I have told them as well that I have never signed a contract with them. I have submitted disputes to the Credit reporting agencies and a dispute to IC Systems INC. The signatures on the contract will not match my signature on my driver 's licence nor will security camera footage from the day the contract was signed will show I was not there to enter into the agreement. I request this fraudulent debt be removed as it does not belong on my account.

On XX/XX/XXXX, I received a collection notice dated XX/XX/XXXX from IC System for a delinquent XXXX account in the amount of {$470.00}. The notice stated in part, " If you notify this office within 30 days from receiving this notice that you dispute the validity of this debt ... this office will obtain verification of the debt or obtain a copy of judgment and mail you a copy of such judgment or verification. '' Having no knowledge of the debt, and knowing my XXXX account is in good standing, I wrote to IC System and XXXX on XX/XX/XXXX informing them I have no knowledge of the debt, that I was disputing the validity of the debt and asked them to provide copies of all purported unpaid XXXX bills for me to examine and verify their validity. '' I sent the letters to XXXX & IC System certified mail and received USPS confirmation of their delivery on XX/XX/XXXX & XX/XX/XXXX respectively. Neither business wrote back. On XX/XX/XXXX, I sent a second letter to XXXX & IC System saying I never received a reply to my first letter and asking yet again for proof of the debt. Again, I sent the letters certified mail and received USPS proof of delivery. Instead of sending me proof of the debt, IC System reported this unsubstantiated debt to the credit bureaus, TWO DAYS AFTER receiving my second letter. An account was created on my credit file as " charge off '' and is now is now showing as a derogatory account on my report and negatively impacting my score.

I challenge the accuracy, compliance and reportability of these listings. There is no valid claim, no contracts exist ... account was settled with creditor and has been confirmed.I have never been late either. I am quite appalled and indignant. ( Debts can not be collected twice ). Grave errorsfalse claims and reportingsI want this account removed immediately or litigation may follow As per FTC opinion letter from Attorney XXXX XXXX XXXX, you should be aware that a printout of a bill or itemized document does not constitute verification.I am again formally requesting a copy of any documents, bearing my signature, showing that I have a legally binding contractual obligation to pay you the alleged amount.Be aware that I am making a final goodwill attempt to have you clear up this matter. The listed items are inaccurate and incomplete and represents a very serious error in your reporting. You must provide me a copy of ANY original documentation required under Section 609 ( a ) ( 1 ) ( A ) & Section 611 ( a ) ( 1 ) ( A ) ( a consumer contract with my signature on it ) and under Section 611 ( 5 ) ( A ) of the FCRA you are required to promptly DELETE all information which can not be verified. Please be advised this is against F.C.R.A. law and is a violation of my rights..

On XX/XX/2020 I discovered that I.C. System Inc began reporting a collection on my credit report. The collection is on behalf of XXXX XXXX. I talked to XXXX, they XXXX 'XXXX out the account and notified I.C. System that I do not owe them any money. I disputed the collection on my report. After 10 days I was notified that I.C. System had refused to remove the collection from my credit report so I called them to give them the information I was given by XXXX. When I called I.C. System I talked to a representative name XXXX XXXX employee number XXXX and told him that XXXX had verified that I do not owe them anything. The amount in collection is listed as {$280.00}. I gave Mr XXXX the name of the contact person from XXXX who is XXXX and the reference number she gave me to confirm our talk and that I do not owe anything. The XXXX reference number is {$280.00}. Mr XXXX told me he would file a dispute. Today I received the result s of the dispute which said they would not remove the collection from my credit report. This is false reporting. In addition, I was not given 30 days to dispute this collection. Had I.C. System follow the required credit collection laws, they would have contacted me, I would have proven that I do not owe the {$280.00}. and it could have been resolved before ever having a collection. I have current service with XXXX and they can verify that I do not owe them for a past due account nor am I late on my current account.

In XXXX the account in question with XXXX XXXX XXXX was verified after a dispute. I contacted the XXXX, XXXX and XXXX bureaus to remove the dispute remark since the account was verified. I.C. Systems continues to report to the XXXX credit bureaus the account is in dispute. I spoke with XXXX managers on XX/XX/XXXX and they informed me they can not remove the dispute remark because I had disputed the account in the past. I told the manager that their reporting was inaccurate because I was no longer disputing the account and the account had been verified. XXXX XXXX the manager ) specifically asked me if I was no longer disputing the account which I responded " that is correct ''. She continued to refuse to update to the credit reporting bureaus that the account is not in dispute. I specifically requested an XXXX update to delete the dispute coding and verbiage from the account. The manager insisted they can not do that even though I had verbally verified the account. She stated the only way the dispute remark will be removed was to settle the account ( pay the debt ), and only then my account will be updated. My response to her was they are free to continue to attempt to collect the debt ; however, they are illegally reporting incorrect information on my credit reports that is affecting my ability to get a home loan due to the dispute remark. Additionally, telling me the only way to remove the dispute remark was by paying the account was XXXX.

I just got notification from my credit report that I had a " NEW '' collections from a company called " I.C. System, INC added to my account. When I looked at the detail it was for a company I spoke to last week because I received a letter from them in the mail that I owed them money. When I called I was told it was for an old debt with XXXX XXXX XXXX from years ago. I asked them to send me information to validate this debt because I do not owe XXXX XXXX XXXX any money and I do not have anything validating the debt and now its on my credit report? I do not owe XXXX XXXX XXXX any money as I spoke to them on the same day of that phone call and spoke to their customer service representative on XX/XX/21 that told me I not owe them anything. I have her customer ID written down at work if it is needed. Now, back years ago I was an XXXX XXXX XXXX customer and they were running a promotion to switch to their XXXX XXXX side so I did. I had an issue after this promotion that they were attempting to collect a balance on which was incorrect since I was still a paying XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX customer. I spoke to them/wrote a letter which I assume they still have all on file and it was all taken care of and I never heard of anything again because I had been a continuous customer for years of XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX customer until actually just recent when I am in the process of moving. This company is attempting to collect a debt that is not valid and is fraud.

My light bill keeps popping up on my credit report. I opened an account XX/XX/XXXX and theyre telling me that I have a past due balance as of XX/XX/? How is that possible if I havent had an account open until XX/XX/ where is this XX/XX/ balance coming from its over 10 years old its coming from my old account that got transferred to my new account .havent had an account opened in my name since 12 years and five months ago except in XX/XX/, So where is this XX/XX/ account coming from its coming from my old account more than 12 years ago and it needs to be taken off my credit report because its over 10 years its not brand new from XX/XX/ because I didnt open account with you guys until XX/XX/XXXXand you can see that on my credit report from the specific billThat the longest debt on my credit report is from that exact original bill 12 years and five months ago which this isthe account imtalking about. Ive called you guys numerous times Ive called the collection agency also and they dont know about the old account? If theres no previous account then where is this previous balance coming from as of XX/XX/ if I didnt open an account with myself until XX/XX/? numerous times and there told me that they cant find an account that that account from the XX/XX/ balance is being forwarded to so how do I have a previous balance of this amount if I dont have a previous account back over 10 years ago? The balance was {$1500.00} way back over 12 years ago.

XXXX/XXXX/2016, I 've sent a dispute to IC System regarding an XXXX account XXXX that has been paid. The agent name XXXX XXXX told me to send the letter and they will forward it onto XXXX to resolve this account I have been disputing for years. On XXXX/XXXX/2016, I called IC System at XXXX to get an update of my account, but the rep transferred me to an XXXX account receivable rep. name XXXX. XXXX asked for my name, account number, social security number, and address. XXXX with XXXX stated she do not show that I owe anything with XXXX for a u-verse account. I asked her please help me with IC system because they keep telling me that they are collecting these funds on behalf of XXXX. This has been a constant battle and I feel it is unfair for them to report on an account that has been paid and resolved. On XXXX/XXXX/2016, I asked the gentlemen at IC System to provide the XXXX Dept. name and XXXX phone number that is consistently reporting this XXXX Account balance of {$270.00}. The rep at IC System stated that he can not provide the name and number ; they only contact with XXXX is by me sent a dispute letter to forward to XXXX. I have sent a letter of dispute on many occasion, but it does not seem like IC System is forwarding the information to XXXX to resolve my account. Here I go again with the same run around by IC System ; IC System has not provided proof they have contacted ATT to delete the account that has been paid and resolved.

I filed a dispute of information on my Credit Report through XXXX. IC System, Inc listed several 'aliases ' on my credit report that were misspellings of my name, and an incorrect address. My name is XXXX XXXX XXXX. IC System, Inc placed several incorrect names as aliases on my credit report : XXXX XXXX, XXXX XXXX, XXXX XXXX. Those three names were " updated '' by IC Systems per a dispute I filed by phone, and just switched back to my real name. Obviously, these are different names and not 'aliases. ' They have not yet removed the other aliases they've added : XXXX XXXX, XXXX XXXX. I was not able to dispute some absurd, incorrect spellings of my names and wrong addresses on my credit report online through XXXX, and they say I am required to contact the collection agency to do so. This is despite the fact that the names and addresses are clearly not mine. IC Systems, per the dispute, 'updated ' the three improper names they placed on my report by simply rendering my correct name instead. But they did not remove the improper address they placed on my report and instead 'Verified it as accurate. ' And at the same time, they proceeded to " verify '' the debt they placed on my credit report associated with that address. It makes no sense that IC Systems would 'add ' several aliases to my credit report and 'update ' those, but not correct a wrong address and debt. I have never lived in Texas, nor do I have debts associated there..

I have a pre-paid cell phone account with XXXX that I opened in XXXX. In XXXX, I started receiving collection calls from I.C. System, a collection agency stating that I owed {$65.00} to XXXX that XXXX sold to collections. On XX/XX/XXXX, I called XXXX to find out what this amount was and why I had not received any communication from XXXX about this amount owed. I initially thought it was fraud and I called XXXX to find out more about it. They did not share any information with me about the debt and why I had not been contacted about it before it was sent to collection. I called the collection company on XX/XX/XXXX, I learned from the collection company that the cell phone number that is in collection is the cell phone I am using with XXXX to date. It is ACTIVE with XXXX and I am still using the account to date. XXXX NEVER contacted me about owing them {$65.00}. I never became aware of this debt until I was contacted by the collection agency. If XXXX had contacted me, I would have clarified for them that it was an error. The collection company also advised me to call XXXX to clear this up. When I tried to call XXXX again I was informed that I am not allowed to talk to a customer service representative and I should use the online options. I do not owe XXXX. The {$65.00} is an error on their part and if they had given me a chance I would have explained it to them. Please help me to have XXXX correct my record and not ruin my credit.

I reviewed what was on their and it was a new collection agency ( I C SYSTEM INC ) I contacted the company to find out who was the original debtor and I was told XXXX, I explain to the agent that I never had an account with XXXX, then they stated, well, XXXX XXXX XXXX. I implied I did have an account with XXXX XXXX and that we had reached an agreement and it's paid in full. Then I was told the records show that I haven't paid anything and I owe XXXX. I ask her can I have an fax number or email to send my proof and I fax it to the company and its still on my credit report as closed but still reporting as derogatory bringing down my score even more when I'm trying to build my credit back up. I paid everything that was delinquent on all XXXX credit report and now they placed this account on XXXX.

I received a letter dated XX/XX/XXXX from IC System demanding a debt in the amount of {$60.00} on behalf of a doctor 's office. On XX/XX/XXXX, I responded in writing and provided information ( credit card payment approval/confirmation code and date payment was made ) which may prove the debt to be invalid. I further requested verification of the debt, such as date of service and type of service. Before the end of XX/XX/XXXX, I called their office to provide the information verbally and to request verification of the debt. I was told that that the account is scheduled to be reported to the credit bureau in XX/XX/XXXX ( a specific date was not provided ). The lady I spoke to advised that the creditor will be informed of my dispute and no action will be taken until such time after the debt is verify. Since I have received no response, a later dated XX/XX/XXXX was sent certified mail to reiterate my conversation with their staff and my dispute. On Saturday, XX/XX/XXXX, I received an email from my credit monitoring service, that IC System reported the debt to the credit bureau on Sunday, XX/XX/XXXX. On XX/XX/XXXX, I called IC System. The gentleman I spoke to said that the system shows the account as being on hold due to a dispute and he is not sure what happened or why it was reported to the credit bureau. IC System has violated my rights under the Fair Debt Act, by failing to investigate and to provide verification of the debt.

I have recently been informed that there is negative information reported by IC System in the file you maintain under my Social Security number. Upon reviewing a copy of my credit report, I see an entry listing I have three amounts owed of {$260.00}, {$280.00}, and {$100.00} as charged-off. The account is showing a balance along with the past due amounts of {$260.00}, {$280.00}, and {$100.00}. This is incorrect reporting. Please delete these accounts. I challenge the accuracy, compliance and reportability of this listing. Please validate this information with IC System and provide me with copies of any documentation associated with this account, bearing my signature. In the absence of any such documentation bearing my signature, I formally request that this information be immediately deleted from the credit file you maintain under my Social Security number. Please note that you have 30 days to complete this investigation, as per the Fair Credit Reporting Act section 611 ( a ) ( 1 ) ( A ), and I am keeping careful record of your actions, including your Method of Verification.

I have have attempted to repair my credit score for the last 3 years regarding a paid collections. I called XXXX in regards to my cell phone did not work properly in late XX/XX/XXXX. I was advised to pay extra on my bill to see if the system would repopulate somehow for my service to work. That did not work and so I changed providers in early XX/XX/XXXX. I paid the early termination fee and then in XX/XX/XXXX, I contacted XXXX in order to paid was turned out to be termination fees that I had gone to collections. The charges were over 200 dollars and I had paid another XXXX dollars to " satisfy '' the account. After the fees of XXXX dollars was paid, the derogatory mark still has been reporting to the three credit agencies. I can contacted XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX, to only have their representative tell me " it will only be on there 7 years '' as if this is not a big issue.I have had to pay more on interest rates over the last 3 years, due to having to explain each time why the collection, I.C system, still should on my report. I have reached out to I.C systems and was told that only XXXX can remove the report by simply contacting to do such. I have contacted XXXX, as recently as XX/XX/XXXX ( XXXX XXXX with 52 minute call duration. 16 mins spent on hold ) -XX/XX/XXXX ( XXXX XXXX with a 42 minute call duration on the first attempt was hung up on ). I will seek damages since my credit score has not been seen less than adequate due to this.

I have received phone calls from IC System repeatedly at all hours of the early morning and late evening ( including XXXX on the weekend ). the numbers were originally from the XXXX area code. I was never able to answer the phone, and nobody ever left a message.also called from an XXXX ( CT ) number. In the past 2 days they have robocalled me from XXXX ( ID ) and XXXX ( WY ) and have either not left a message, or I have answered with the delayed response from them and hung up ( indicating a robocall ). I returned their call both times and asked who they were and they refused to give me any information until I verified my address or my social security number. I do not give out personal information on the phone. I suggested that if they wanted to collect from me XXXX which they never actually confirmed who the creditor was XXXX, they needed to send me something in writing, and we returned to other person demanding that in order to do this, i had to give them my identifying information. They hung up on me in the middle of my own sentence about why they would n't be getting my information over the phone. they called me back about an hour later and it was another delayed call without a person on the other end. If i legitimately owe a debt, I am MORE Than willing to pay it, but I 'm not giving out any information over the phone ... not when they clearly already have that information if they are asking me to " verify '' it with them.

I noticed several years ago, that XXXX hired " XXXX XXXX to get me to pay for a bill that was not in my name and for service at a location that no one lived at. I contacted XXXX and the collection agency each time they placed the debt on my credit report. They told me when the bill was for and where, but when I disputed the information, they changed the information to my name. The collection agency was changed to IC Systems the third time and I called them and told them this is not my debt. I contacted XXXX each time and they investigated and removed this item from my report. Today I checked with a different company credit reporting company, and they have IC Systems reporting this same XXXX dollars that I have disputed 3 times already with XXXX. XXXX does not have it listed this time. I don't know how to stop this ; I never had a bill with XXXX in my name during the time they claim this debt is owed. I have a brother with the exact same name, and he had a bill with them. I spoke to him he had a cell phone tied to services that he did not pay. This is not my debt. I can provide proof of the brother with the same name. I have been fighting creditors all my life because of this. I even placed a disclaimer on my XXXX Report warning creditors of the 2 brothers with the same name. IC Systems and XXXX keep trying to place this debt on me. Each time they report this, my credit score and image gets wiped out and I get refused credit.

I sent 4 letters regarding my credit report to each bureau and to the collector themselves. XX/XX/2021 was the last one I sent. I haven't checked my credit in awhile prior and noticed a collections accounts ( XXXX XXXX AND XXXX. XXXX XXXX XXXX ) show up on my report. I've called them several times to dispute the wrong information being reported and I either get disconnected or the run around to figure out how this account is on my report. Every time I call in to explain that I've sent in my letters multiple times, the reply is they haven't gotten it. its been about 3 1/2 months since at least ONE response even after calling. I have no clue what else to do and I feel like there won't be a resolution because they keep saying they haven't received anything. This account needs to be removed because I am not liable for this debt nor do I owe anything on these accounts I've never had a contract with. The false information on my report is unfair. Please help me figure this out, I'm out of options and frustrated that its been almost 4 months now. These letters feel useless at this point and I've been spending extra money to have my letters overnight to each credit bureau and the collections agencies themselves. I understand that bureaus and collections agencies can make mistakes but it is very frustrating. I went as far as taking pictures of receipts and letters because they keep saying they haven't received anything. Please help me

XXXX XXXX originally sold an account that was opened in my name by someone who stole my identity to XXXX XXXX XXXX reported a delinquent account on my credit report for {$70.00}. Now they sold this fraudulent account to IC System Inc. and claim that I now owe {$770.00}. I told them that this was identity theft. They said that it's for a debt from XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, Nebraska. I told them that I have never lived there or visited there in my life. I called XXXX XXXX myself and they said that they only do online disputes with a police report. That since they merged with XXXX XXXX XXXX, they can't file a complaint over the phone and that they only have limited access. I filed a police report with the XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX and already sent it to XXXX XXXX. IC System says that there's nothing that they can do. The collection company refuses to delete this account from their files. The collection company should be able to verify and dispute the account themselves, since they are the ones who now are trying to collect this debt. I am in the process of applying for a home loan and this has derailed everything. This is a living nightmare. XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX should be held accountable for not fully verifying the identity of the person when this account was opened. I'm sure that I'm not the only victim. I have also filed a dispute with XXXX XXXX and the case # is XXXX. It is impossible to contact XXXX XXXX by phone.

I was notified by XXXX XXXX that I had a negative report on my credit. It is a bill from XXXX XXXX at an address I lived at 6 years ago.The bill though the collection agency claims is for XXXX of XXXX. I contacted XXXX XXXX and spoke with XXXX. Her direct number is XXXX. I told XXXX that I have no knowledge of this bill and that I never had XXXX XXXX when I lived in that condo and that my husband and I have XXXX XXXX right now and are and always have been in good standing. I told her I could prove by tax records that I have not lived there when this bill was made. I then told her that I never received any notification from them to dispute this bill before it was reported negatively on my credit report. She then said I needed to call XXXX XXXX because there was nothing she could do about it. I then asked her for the number to their legal department where she gave me a fake number of XXXX. When I called that number it was a customer service number for XXXX XXXX where I was informed that legal does not accept phone calls from consumers.I then called XXXX XXXX where I was informed that they can give me no information because they sold this account to XXXX XXXX and all info must come from them. I am stuck now between a rock and a hard spot with nowhere to turn. I will assume it is illegal to put a negative ding onmy credit report without ever giving me a chance to dispute it. I was given an account number for XXXX XXXX of XXXX

I attempted to settle the debt at {$770.00} and asked them to remove it from my credit report, I spoke with an employee by the name of " XXXX '', who I asked to send me a settlement letter by fax, or email and he advised that they do not do that, that it is sufficient with the recorded call. I asked him a XXXX of times if he was making it clear that he could not do that for me and he offered to get a supervisor, we disconnected the call. Today on XXXX/XXXX/15 I attempted to settle this debt again and this time an employee by the name of " XXXX XXXX '' helped me, I advised him that i wanted to settle the debt but I needed a settlement letter, I advised him I had problems with that in the past, he stated they dont do that. I advised him that I would put in a complaint with the CFPB, he stated " ok go right ahead '', our lawyers have advised us that we can take this action. I repeated myself, asking him on the recorded line " that if I was hearing correctly and that he was not going to provide me a settlement letter '', he stated that his office lawyers have things handled. He then asked me what lawyer I was going to use, I advised him, that it didnt matter and that I was filing a complaint. Then the call was disconnected.

I sold my XXXX dollar truck because I wanted to get a cheaper commuter. So I asked XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX for a loan and they are the ones who made as aware of this delinquency. I had no knowledge of any medical bills owed. I pulled my credit report and called I C Systems. I spoke with XXXX XXXX. She let me know the amount owed was {$2300.00}. However I knew that our insurance covered his service. So I called XXXX. I spoke with XXXX, she referred me to my old employer and stated it was my old employers responsibility to pay. While that didnt seem right I called HR at my old employer and she confirmed that it was XXXX I should be talking to. So I called back. I got a lady named XXXX on the other line. She said the amount showed {$2600.00}, and it was paid. She said we had a {$40.00} co-pay that we paid at date of service on XX/XX/XXXX. She said the doctors office must have sent this to collection in error. So I called XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX and they transferred me to billing where I spoke with XXXX. She said she had no idea why this went to collections. I then called XXXX back and they referred me to their subdivision XXXX XXXX XXXX I spoke to XXXX. She said they paid this on XX/XX/XXXX and gave me a check number. She said she had an EOB and would fax it over to the collections agency to show it was paid. I am not responsible for this debt. I have never had a late payment, or delinquency in my entire 17 years of having credit.

Hi IC SYSTEMS COLLECTION ; ( XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX ) ; THIS IS NOT MINE, NO KNOWLEDGE, AND FRAUDULENT ACCOUNT. I have disputed this item with the credit reporting agency and they reported you confirmed the account as valid. I honestly do not believe to ever have any relationship with this collection agency or original creditor. Also there are several inaccuracies with this account the way it's reporting and that's a total violation of FCRA and FDCPA laws and regulations. In a good faith effort to resolve the matter amicably, I must demand proof of this debt, specifically the alleged contract or other instrument bearing my signature, as well as proof of your authority in this matter. Absent such proof, you must correct any erroneous reports of this past debt as mine. I am writing to request that you please provide the following information : 1. Please evidence your authorization under 15 USC 1692 ( e ) and 15 USC 1692 ( f ) in this alleged matter. 2. What is your authorization of law for your collection of information? 3. What is your authorization of law for your collection of this alleged debt? 4. Please evidence your authorization to do business or operate in this state. 5. Please evidence proof of the alleged debt, including the alleged contract or other instrument bearing my signature. 6. Please provide a complete account history, including any charges added for collection activity.

I have received collection attempts from IC System, a collection agency that now represents XXXX on a mobile phone account. I filed a previous complaint against XXXX disputing the balance. I have filed a complaint with XXXX and IC System both disputing the balance. I have paid all monies I feel are legitimate charges and the balance of {$540.00} are international data overages that I was charged in error and have disputed these charges since they first appeared on my bill. Please see my original complaint below. I am writing to file a formal complaint against XXXX in regards to my mobile device account. I have been a good customer of XXXX until recently when I went outside the country. I was charged over {$1000.00} in international data overages after their communication with me explicitly stated that there was no charge for international data, only voice. After receiving my next bill, I called customer service for assistance. My calls were put on endless holds, continuously transferred to one person after another where I would have to repeat the reason for my call and these calls went on for hours. After over 2 months of these attempts for resolution, I finally closed the account. I have made payments on the account and tried one last time today to call for resolution, only to have the same experience. I was transferred more than 3 times, repeated myself more than I should and was on the phone for more than an hour.

I disputed this debt twice with the credit bureau and the second dispute, I included a copy of the email from the Office of the President of XXXX XXXX XXXX to confirm I didnt owe the debt. The supervisor from XXXX said on XX/XX/XXXX, eventhough I included a copy of the email from Ms. XXXX XXXX, Office of the President of XXXX XXXX XXXX, I.C.

I called Ms. XXXX but voicemail acknowledge she is currently on maternity leave and to call customer service with no forwarding number. I researched the internet to find a number to call XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX wireless service. They confirmed my balance is {$0.00} and that the information with I.C. Systems should not be reporting. I asked I.C. Systems to call XXXX XXXX XXXX. I was told they are no longer in charge of the debt. I advise well how will they know I dont owe this. I even advised I was on the phone when Ms. XXXX called their company to informed them I am not responsible for this debt. The supervisor from I.C.

In XX/XX/2015 my service with XXXX was cancelled. A few weeks later I received a notice from a collection agency that said I owed {$270.00} ( which showed up on my credit report. ) I called the collection agency to work something out but they said they had sent my account back to XXXX for XXXX pieces of equipment that needed to be returned. I could only locate XXXX which I turned in. I was looking for the other XXXX. In the mean time the collection was removed from my credit report. I figured everything was settled. But I just recently got another notice from I C Systems collections that put it back on my credit report. I called them regarding the XXXX Returned equipment issue. They said they dont collect on returned equipment and that the charge was for service. I called XXXX and told them at the time this happened they said the charge was for returned equipment. Now they say it is the last bill for XXXX through XXXX. I told them the service was disconnected in the beginning of XXXX so how could I be charged for service that did n't exist? The rep mumbled something incoherent - then I asked him if I could get a copy of the bill. He said no they could n't supply a copy of the bill - I looked online and found dozens of complaints against XXXX for this shady billing practice along with even a class action lawsuit. It is unethical and abusive. They should not be able to milk extra money out of people on closed accounts.

I. C. Systems , Inc. has place a derogatory report on my credit files without proper communication or documented proof of their claim prior to their actions as stated by law. I am currently seeking legal counsel to prove their actions are unwarranted. Specifically, I. C. Systems , Inc. is claiming a debt of {$340.00} to which I am pursuing information to determine the basis for their actions. A call to I. C. Systems, Inc. office number as listed on the internet received no answer. After reviewing my credit report I see I. C. Systems, Inc. is listed as a collection account opened on XXXX/XXXX/2016 and closed with a balance due of {$340.00} with XXXX XXXX which I have not had service with in over 7 years and I do not have any agreement or contract in writing or otherwise with I.C. Systems, Inc. for this account which is listed as past due as of XXXX 2016. A collection agency obviously can not extend credit to a consumer. Furthermore, the State of Georgia debt collection laws states that the statute of limitation on debt is 4 to 6 years depending on the type of debt ( Ga. Code XXXX ) from the date the last payment made. I have been informed that legally, creditors must inform consumers that they are pursuing collection of " legal debt '' and provide amounts and dates to prove their claim. I. C. Systems , Inc. have not had any communication with me prior to placing this debt on the XXXX credit reporting bureaus.

XXXX keeps reporting a debt from 2009, the company IC systems they continue to report about has been disputed twice and removed from other bureau 's. This debt has no supporting documentation from the collection agency, nor has ever provided me with any such documentation. XXXX is continuing to report something that is 1. ) too old and 2. ) not even valid and has no supporting documentation from XXXX XXXX. this is from XXXX trying to keep me in a contract that was only 1 year old and required renewal. I never renewed with XXXX XXXX and all of my dogs Dr bills were PIF and they actually refunded me like {$9.00} in the store due to this being a confused mess. There is no 2nd year of doggie insurance EVER requested nor approved by me. If they want to collect they need to provide documentation YET IT '' S OVER 7 YEARS OLD. I have done everything I can do to remedy this but as stated there is no contract, no signed documents, nothing that supports this debt and further nothing to verify the debt and again they refunded me aprox {$9.00} after this mess. If there is they should have provided it to me from 1. ) XXXX back in 2009 and 2. ) From IC Systems and 3. ) from XXXX. NOT 1 place has ever provided me with documentation OF THIS DEBT. Just says it's owed but no signed document from me or anything of the sort. I am requesting a remedy and/or Valid documentation to be provided NOW. Thank you, XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX

I have become aware of inaccurate information on my credit report because I wanted to refinance my home mortgage. With the information received on the credit report, I am not able to take advantage of the offers that would have been available had my credit report been accurate. I am submitting a complaint because there is an account recently added to my credit report identified as Collection when, in fact, the bill was paid upon receipt in XX/XX/XXXX. I visited the XXXX XXXX XXXX ER on XX/XX/XXXX following an automobile crash. The hospital took the auto insurance to process billing. Attached is documentation of the bill and payment of the bill from XXXX XXXX XXXX with service location noted as XXXX XXXX XXXX Aside from the gross inaccuracy of the information that I need rectified, I am disputing the timing of the report and how it is presented on my credit report. The reporting agency, IC Systems, is reporting an account opened XX/XX/XXXX and closed XX/XX/XXXX and reported XXXX, with manner of Payment " Collection ( I9B ) ''. Payment History indicates a Balance of {$500.00} listed in XXXX, XXXX, XXXX, XXXX, and XXXX of XXXX. Since learning of this via my mortgage broker, I have received a paper bill ( " Collection Notice '' ) in the mail, dated XX/XX/XXXX ( also attached ). Please let me know when this will be removed from my credit report. If not removed in a timely manner, I will pursue legal action.

In the process of repairing my credit score I disputed some old debt accounts that were listed with reporting errors and they were removed by XXXX. But I C Systems bought one of those removed old debt accounts and proceeded to reapply it onto my credit as a new debt with them and they are reporting it two times a month since XX/XX/2020. I have never directly communicated to this company nor did I receive any documents from them informing me who they were. I C Systems just suddenly appeared on my credit report claiming I had an account with them. I submitted a dispute to XXXX on XX/XX/2020 to remove the account due to inaccurate dates on debt, this collection agency bought an old debt of mine from another collection agency and were claiming it was a new debt ( 2 months ) on my credit. XXXX came back claiming that they investigated it and the account was up to FCRA requirements. But I investigated and found that what this debt collector is doing is against Federal Credit Reporting Policies. A collection account bought is considered a continuation of the original debt therefore the date of debt can not be changed to the purchase date the collector bought the account. " It is a violation of law for a collection agency to report old past-due amounts as if they are new again when the debts are sold. If an agency persists in reporting old debts with updated activity dates, you may have a legal case against them. ''

On XX/XX/23 I received a letter from IC Systems, on the letter in giant bold letting it says " TOTAL AMOUNT OF THE DEBT NOW : {$290.00} '' Due to some health issues I wasn't able to call until XX/XX/23. I called to try and resolve the debt expecting to pay {$290.00}. I spoke to a representative named " XXXX '' and explained to her why I was calling, I repeatedly asked to pay the debt that is on the paper they sent me but she kept telling me I owed over {$700.00}. She then told me " yeah ... sorry the wording is weird on that '' but I'm not understanding how " TOTAL AMOUNT OF THE DEBT NOW '' can be taken any other way. She offered me a settlement of {$500.00}, which I wanted them to honor the amount listed on the paper. I felt this was very deceptive and a bait and switch to get me to call in so they could get my information. I asked to speak to a manager. Manager " XXXX '' got on the phone and just repeated the same thing she did, " {$290.00} was ADDED to the existing debt, it isn't what is owed '' even though the paper clearly says " TOTAL AMOUNT OF THE DEBT NOW ''. I tried to settle for even {$400.00} but they wouldn't work at all with me even though their notice they sent to me was extremely deceptive and I feel like it was a misrepresentation of the debt. I can include a picture of the paper they sent me, they even acknowledged they are seeing what I see but their answer was " it's worded really weird ''.

Account number XXXX This is my final warning. IC SYSTEM and XXXX have until XX/XX/XXXX to remove this or I will file a lawsuit. You all have my account information and further tactics used to dodge this will not be accepted. IC System is reporting a debt of {$520.00} owed for a XXXX Account that is not mine. Not only is this debt not mine any accounts opened prior to XX/XX/XXXX should have been addressed in my federal Bankruptcy filing on XX/XX/XXXX. Neither XXXX nor IC System at the time contacted myself, my attorney nor the The Federal court. By law if IC System purchased this debt from XXXX they had a legal obligation to mail documentation notifying me of any debt owed, IC system did not do this. Nor have they provided me with any proof that a debt is owed to them. IC System has violated numerous section of the FCRA. I worked really hard to deal with any issues with my creditors during bankruptcy. XXXX had a obligation to show up and collect any debts they feel were owed. They did not. Also I have a current account with XXXX and if a debt was owed to XXXX it would have been due prior to activating services. IC system is attempting to fraudulently collect money they are not owed. I C system has until XX/XX/XXXX to remove this debt from all reporting or my attorney XXXX XXXX will be filing charges against IC system and XXXX on XX/XX/XXXX. This is my final warning to IC System, XXXX and all Credit Agencies

XX/XX/XXXX was a service we had back in XX/XX/XXXX- XX/XX/XXXX. We moved from XXXX county to XXXX XXXX and when we moved their services did not cover our new area so we stopped services at no charge. When we moved we took the cable with us however we kept having problems with service and connection and their prices we called in and because of our issues the rep agreed to have our cable cancelled and we would not be charged anything because we were not happy with services. He just told us to make sure we turned in all equipment so we do not get charged for it. We sent it all in and called to verify they received it and they told us we had no balance and we went our own ways. Now XX/XX/XXXX we live in Texas and I received an alert on my credit for a collection account for XXXX $ we have never received anything in the mail in the last 3 years. I called the collections and they told me that I will be paying it very rudely. I am so upset because they have damaged my credit when we are trying to qualify for a house and we never received any calls emails or letters regarding the debt that we do not even owe. We were assured as long as we returned the equipment we would not owe anything and now we are being told different. That is not fair and very unwthixal and we we're hoping to establish a new service with XX/XX/XXXX when we bought our home but after this I am definitely disappointed and want this issue fixed.

I.C. Systems is a debt collection agency that has taken my debt from XXXX XXXX XXXX. I have called I.C. Systems and have attempted to get in touch with XXXX XXXX XXXX several times now, but to no avail. I have always paid my bills and am on-time for payments. I have never seen so much as a bill or any kind of alert from this medical group. I contacted I.C. Systems to find out what the collection was for and was told that it was in regard to the birth of my daughter. My daughter was born via c-section on XX/XX/XXXX, where my medical team saved my life and I was being treated by an in-network OB-GYN at an in-network hospital XXXX They are attempting to collect payment for a service where I had complete insurance coverage and they should have had my full policy information. At no point were my husband or I informed ( by hospital personnel or the attending pediatrician ) that the pediatrician who was present during the c-section was out-of-network. These services were rendered when I could not consent, and I am reiterating that I never received so much as a bill from this company prior to them sending this charge to collections. I.C. Systems is dating this charge to XX/XX/XXXX, which makes absolutely no sense. Please review this case I implore you to erase this collection from my credit report, as it does not make sense to belong there, and I am worried that this is a fraudulent charge. Thank you so much.

I tried to send them a letter last XXXX asking for a copy of a signed contract bearing my signature, a copy of the payment statements of this account from which IC System is reporting to the credit reporting agency. I am asking for debt valisatin. Tracking number : XXXX Debt Validation : 1.Who was the original creditor on this account, and what was the account number? 2.What was the original amount owed? 3.Please provide me documentation that indicates that I agreed to pay someone this sum of money. 4.What was the original date of delinquency for this account? 5.Agreement that grants you the authority to collect on this alleged debt, or proof of acquisition by assignment. 6.What did you pay for this account, and how did you calculate the current amount owed? I never received any response regarding my request and they did not update the credit report as disputed. However, they sent me a letter stating that IC System will no longer collect the debt and will return the account to the original creditor but they never did. It's still showing on my latest credit report that they are still collecting on it. IC System is violating the FCRA for reporting this account with inconsistent and inaccurate information that I disputed which they then did not update to the credit reporting agencies as " disputed '' and continues to report inconsistent account information which is in direct violation of the FCRA.

I pulled my credit today to find out what there as negotiable items in my reports and found out that the debt being reported that I did not incur. The first it looks like is for a cell phone or something at sprint for almost {$2000.00} and is now charged off to a collections. There is also a California address associated with the account that is reporting as a bisnuess but most definitely not mine and I have never even been to this area. Also when this account t was opened I was in intensive care on total life support in XXXX Pa. So needless to say that it would have been literally impossible for me to have opens this account. The second fraudulent piece of debt is also fro. 2019 and seems to be for a medical service. Although I was sick at this period in my life, I had medical insurance and was admitted to the hotspot for a very long ti r and they had submitted all of my info to my insurance and they had covered all of it. So this bill for {$100.00} is either a mistake or someone getting radiology service under my name, but I did not see any radiology in the fall of 2019. XXXX is all of the information that is I sorted t including t the address of the business associated with the sprint debt and a peculiar XXXX address that I have never been as XXXX users with. I also have my spouses credit card negitivly impacting my credit report and I am not responsible for that debt and have never agreed to it.

I told them the story and asked them to record all the actions I had taken on this and why I had not received any response from XXXX, nor did anyone try to reach me. The IC Sytems instead treatened me that if I dont fill up XXXX 's farudulent report on the website, I will be in trouble. At which IO got angry, since I recollected that his website asked for too much information. And there was no way to reach nay human and talk on this issue at XXXX.

On or about XX/XX/2019 I received a notification that a collection account was on my credit report from IC Systems. On XX/XX/2019 I sent IC Systems a Cease and Desist and request for validation as per FDCPA, requesting validation of the debt through : All documents, including electronic records or images, which bear my signature and which concern the debt being collected ; A ledger, account card, account statement copy, or similar record, whether paper or electronic, which reflects the date and amount of payments, credits, balances, and charges concerning the debt, including but not limited to interest, fees, charges or expenses incidental to the principal obligation which the creditor is expressly authorized to collect by the agreement creating the debt or permitted to collect by law ; The name and address of the original creditor, if different from the collecting creditor ; and A copy of proof that you are authorized to collect this debt from the original creditor. This letter was received by IC System on XX/XX/2019. They replied with a letter XX/XX/XXXX that included printouts of some account. They did not include anything that bared my signature, did not include a full account summary, or proof that they are authorized to collect this debt from the original creditor. Furthermore, I have not had an account with the original creditor during this time nor in the state listed in their reply.

My name is XXXX XXXX a federally protected Consumer and Iam making this complaint against I.C. System for committing identity theft. I have never given I.C.System any permission to use any of my identifying information to commit mail fraud by contacting me about an alleged debt they claim I owe. Iam aware that in accordance with Article 9, the assignment of the defaulted note is illegal. Both the assignee and the assigned are both liable for violations under 15 USC subsection 1692 e ( 12 ). I have not validated any alleged debt with I.C.System of these alleged debts shall not be construed as an admission of liability. As of XXXX I have not received any documentary evidence, such as a trilateral contract, giving I.C.System any right to collect on this alleged debt. I have never received a documentation requesting validation from I.C.System, before they committed multiple violations under the FCRA and the FDCPA by furnishing this alleged debt on my Consumer report, including not limited to 15 USC 1692 d ( 4 ). Which the FTC defines as debt parking. If I.C. System can not provide me with proof such as a tracking number that they attempted to lawfully validate this alleged debt with me, the Consumer, prior to furnishing it on my Consumer Report, this has been a fraudulently furnished account with Forethought and Malice as an attempt to bring harm to me and my Financial Reputation.

They said they would email me a copy statement of my transaction and the agreement to my email : XXXX within XXXX hrs. I have received anything from them. XXXX I called IC Systems again to follow up with email that i have not received that was to show i paid the XXXX and the agreement to pay the other half of my debt. When I called the manager said they did not have the correct address on file, therefore i need to update my current address before I can get the email notification. Then the manager said i could not get the email immediately despite the fact I have waited the 24-48 hours. She said i will have to wait another 24-48 hrs because my physical address was not updated. This is not my fault. XXXX 3rd party Representative called with 3rd party on the line to verify information and the representative said they could not verify the payment made because they did not have access to see the information. XXXX-I then called IC systems back with no one on the line but myself and IC systems representative whom said that a payment was made of XXXX and the other payment was. XXXX called again got a representative who finally found my account with a 3rd party on the line and finally verified my information.

IC Systems has advised XXXX that they have " verified '' and " validated '' this account, and indeed have not. There was no initial communication in oder for me to respond or dispute said item. IC System is willfully being negligent and non-compliant with attempts to collect and report alleged debt. Per 15 U.S. Code 1681c2, this information is to be BLOCKED and removed within 4 days of receipt as it is a result of identity theft. I want to be explicitly clear with my request. I am not requesting verification of debt ; but instead, I am requesting validation of the debt. It has become increasingly clear that you are being willfully negligent in rectifying my affairs. Over the past year I have made subsequent attempts to have this account reasonably investigated in accordance with both the Fair Credit Reporting Act and Fair Debt Collection Practice Act. Starting 4 days from the day you receive this letter ; I am demanding you furnish the supporting documents and PROBABLE evidence that I have any obligation to the abovementioned accounts. If you are unable to produce said requirements within the generously allotted threshold, by federal law you are required to remove the accounts from my consumer report without prejudice. By responding that you have received my complaint and request, that will guarantee a contract to have said items properly addressed within the next XXXX business days.

On XX/XX/XXXX at XXXX XXXX, I contacted collection agency IC System Inc., in XXXX XXXX, MN at ( XXXX ) XXXX in reference to a medical collection account for {$55.00} that was not mine, that they had reported to XXXX. I was told by a male representative that the account was in a different department and he immediately transferred me. A female representative rudely answered the phone without giving a name, stating how can I help you. I advised that I was calling about the account that had been on my credit file since 2014 to see if it could be removed. After looking up the account the representative accidentally confirmed that the original account was not mine as she was looking it up. The representative then advised that because the person responsible for the account refused to pay it in 2014, I was responsible because she believed it was my spouse. The representative then asked me if I knew the person who the bill belonged to and began asking me to give updated information for the person who the collection account belonged to. I informed to her that I was not affiliated with that account, did not receive service for that bill and was not responsible for it. I requested that ICS Systems remove the account because the representative was aware that it wasn't mine and she sarcastically told me that they don't remove information, only report it and to contact the Credit Bureaus to remove it.

I left XXXX for another phone provider, while doing so I had a payoff amount for the phone I had at the time of about {$190.00}. Rather than return the phone to XXXX I chose to payoff the device to use with the new provider. This dollar amount was verified multiple times, with XXXX over the phone as well as on my acct app, to be correct. However, after closing my account they decided to charge me about {$900.00}. After speaking with multiple representatives they all refused to honor the original device payoff. Then after XXXX collections harassing me for months, they called me and told me they were no longer going to pursue this due to them realizing/ finding the proper paperwork showing what I actually owed. Collection attempts stopped for over 2 years and now they are again trying to get the $ XXXX dollars and reflecting that to my credit report. During every interaction with XXXX and their debt collectors, I have offered to pay what I truly owed and was only offered to pay that amount as a settlement. I declined this as I do not want a settlement/ not paid in full acct on my credit report when that is not the case. Furthermore, I have reached out to the new debt collector, XXXX. XXXX, XXXX, who can not even locate any information saying I owe l anything which leaves me no avenue with the company falsely reporting to my credit report to even attempt to correct it with said company.

I am in receipt of your letter claiming that I owe your company for a debt. According to the Federal Fair Debt Collection Practices Act, I have a right to have the alleged debt validated by you.

I received a letter in the mail regarding a collections debt to XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX. I have never been a customer of XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX so I called them to ask why I was receiving this letter. They told me not to worry since the account opened had an address I have never been a resident of and that it should clear up by itself. This was not the case, because a few days ago on XX/XX/XXXX, I was checking my credit and noticed my excellent credit was now fair because there was a derogatory mark against me due to a collection for {$310.00} owed to XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX. I contacted XXXX XXXX XXXX and was on the phone with XXXX different people who kept transferring me to different departments. Finally, I reached a XXXX person who gave me the street name and the account # that was opened fraudulently in my name, and advised me to go to XXXX. I went to the website and was then sent an email giving me 21 days to fax or mail them proof of identity and proof of residency during the time of this account being opened. The paperwork is very confusing and I am trying to figure it out with help from others. I am in the process of going to the police to file a report and faxing the documents they are asking for. I also contacted XXXX and they said that they need paperwork from XXXX XXXX XXXX stating that the account in question was not mine, before they clear the collection from my credit report.

I was advised that IC systems has reported a disputed bill to the credit bureaus without validating and adjusting the bill to the correct amount. In XX/XX/2018, I received a call from IC Systems on behalf of XXXX. I advised the rep that the bill was incorrect and needed to be adjusted to reflect the amounts paid for cellphones. I was told by the rep that she would look into it. However, the phone was disconnected and I heard nothing else from the company. On the evening of XX/XX/2018. I received a letter from XXXX, before I had a chance to respond, I received a phone call from IC Systems on XX/XX/2018 advising me that although the bill is inaccurate, it was reported to the credit bureaus. I asked why I hadnt heard anything else from them regarding my initial dispute or otherwise and was told that theyve called me but its against their company policy to leave a voicemail and that my dispute was not honored because they didnt receive it in writing. I advised the rep that I never received their contact information, not by letter or phone and was under the impression it was handled by XXXX since thats who Ive been working with since the last call I received in XX/XX/XXXX. I was told that it is my responsibility to get their information and to validate the debt. I proceeded by asking for an email address to send a complaint and follow up dispute and was guided to their website.

On the month of XXXX, a collection agency IC systems started reporting an open credit of {$290.00} from XXXX XXXX XXXX. This company has come out of nowhere and damaged my report for a service I havent had in years. Also, back in 2015 I paid XXXX XXXX off in full. Its been almost 3 years since I had service with XXXX XXXX and when I did have service they were paid in FULL. I return all equipment back to them the year of XX/XX/2015. All of my debt has been settled with this company years ago. I have never had an account with IC systems ever and they are damaging my credit. Also, this company is false reporting things to XXXX. This account does not show on any other credit bureau but XXXX because it is false. I called this company multiple times between XXXX and XXXX, and spoke with representatives but no one can tell me why this account appeared. Also, this company has never sent me a statement saying why I owe this amount of money. This is effecting me with potential job opportunities and my current job with the city. Its also making my credit score lower as well which it hard for me to finance a new home and other things. I never had a debt with this company, and dont know how it came about. If this agency continues to report negative inquires on my report, I will file a civil lawsuit on this company. I will be contacting a lawyer to help me with this issue if its not settled.

I had XXXX XXXX XXXX that I terminated when I moved in XX/XX/XXXX. Per XXXX XXXX instructions, I placed their modem in a pre-addressed box and shipped it back to them. They later informed me they had not received it. In XX/XX/XXXX, I spoke with a customer Support agent to verify that they had received it. I did not receive any additional communications or bills from XXXX after that date so assumed everything was resolved. This month, XXXX of XXXX, I received a notification that a collections had been placed on my XXXX and XXXX credit reports by IC Systems. I have not received any communications from IC Systems. When I called IC Systems they informed me that the collections was in fact for the unreturned modem, and that they had been sending letters to the address provided by XXXX, where I lived up until XXXX of XXXX. The agent then told me they can not offer any resolution then abruptly disconnected from the call. Of course I never received these letters as they were sent to my old address. I checked and my current address is accurate on both my XXXX and XXXX credit reports, so would have been available for IC Systems to reference. Not only was this debt previously addressed with the original company, XXXX, I received no communications neither from XXXX nor IC Systems informing me they still considered the debt to be outstanding before it was reported to Credit Bureaus.

I C Systems, Inc., located at XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX , XXXX XXXX, MN XXXX, is in violation of the Fair Credit Reporting Act. I C Systems, Inc. placed a negative collection account on my credit reports, that I have no knowledge of, without notifying me before placing the collection account. I was not allowed to validate this alleged debt prior to the company reporting it to the credit bureaus which is substantially damaging my credit. After doing some research, I found the original creditor, XXXX XXXX XXXX, a company that I also have no knowledge of, is associated with XXXX Hospital ER billing dept. I had only been seen at XXXX Hospital once, on XX/XX/XXXX and that bill was paid in full in XXXX through XXXX and myself. The amount I C Systems, Inc is reporting is the discount the insurance company negotiated with the provider that was applied to the bill. IT WAS NOT A CHARGE. I only owed XXXX Hospital a payment of {$59.00} after insurance paid out which I paid in XXXX. My score has dropped over 60 points due this is company 's failure to perform their due diligence instead of just purchasing random 'alleged delinquent accounts '. Again, {$580.00} is the amount that was negotiated by the insurance company. This company needs to remove this erroneous account that was added to my reports in XX/XX/XXXX since they failed to actually verify and confirm that a balance of {$580.00} was owed.

IC Systems has regularly and consistently called my phone number with the intent to harass or annoy. Calls are placed using an auto dialer and I when I answer the call is disconnected. Even though I have repeatedly announced that I am on the line and can hear agents typing, talking and laughing, the call is always disconnected by IC Systems. No matter how many times I have answered the call they continue to hang up. Additionally, when IC Systems first contacted me via mail about this bill, I responded by calling and letting them know this debt was disputed with XXXX Hospital and was under a Quality of Care review. The hospitals administration has admitted that the care received was not up to standards, including potential exposure to XXXX and XXXX due to staff failing to properly follow equipment sterilization processes, repeated lost XXXX and failure to be seen by a physician ; ultimately resulting in my leaving the hospital without care. A review of my file with the hospital administration showed it was hours before the hospital and staff realized I had left without being seen or discharged. I am asking IC Systems to cease contacting me and return the debt to XXXX Hospital to be forgiven. I do not feel like I should pay for substandard services that potentially endangered my life. I am also requesting this item to be suppressed and deleted from my credit bureau report.

My son attended XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX for several years as a XXXX XXXX. He had several services rendered under my insurance ( MEDICAID ), they referred him twice for XXXX and we were told it wouldn't be covered by the insurance that I have. After the second consultation which was because the prior one expired due to length in time since my decline, his father and the company setup payment arrangements. I believe the insurance used was XXXX or whatever system he signed up for, I do not know the details since I declined and did not have any part in the service agreement. I spoke with the both managers at the practice over the last two years on both sides regarding the issue. I advised them of the concern and was told that due to account setup they couldn't list both parties. In speaking with the manager of XXXX XXXX it was verified that medicaid was listed for his office XXXX exams and visits. In speaking with XXXX manager I continuously was given the run around and redirected to billing and asked for court documents which were provided several times. The facility sent the debt to collection in my name and still to this day I have yet to see a service agreement with terms, conditions or my signature. I spoke to the debt collector yesterday whom was not advised nor aware of the matter and stated that they would need to pull back the debt or we would need to go through court.

I closed my XXXXXXXX XXXX account # XXXX at the end of XX/XX/XXXX when I moved. I returned all the equipment to the XXXX as instructed and was told the account was closed and I owed nothing on the phone with XXXX. No further bills were mailed to me. Once I checked my credit report in XXXX, I noticed I had a collection again my XXXX account. I contacted XXXX and they stated my account was closed, there was an error they corrected and provided me with confirmation # XXXX. The debt was never cleared off. I opened disputes through XXXX to remove this without any success. I also contacted XXXX multiple times when they stated the last person forgot to process the final steps and they would take care of it. After about a year of this process, XXXX opened a new ticket # XXXX on XX/XX/XXXX. After many hours on the phone, they finally stated they account was closed and they could do nothing about it even though they had stated the caused the problem by billing incorrectly. The debt has been passed between about 3 different debt collects with it currently sitting with I.C. System, INC who I'm waiting to receive any communication with. I have opened a dispute with XXXX, but I have no confidence this will resolve my issue. At the end of the day, this is debt I do not own confirmed by the original debtor XXXX and I need this resolved and removed from all of my credit reports.

I discontinued service with XXXX in XX/XX/2017. The account was paid, equipment was sent back and the account was closed with a XXXX dollar balance and in good standing. XXXX sent I C Systems ( a collection agency ) an account in my name and claimed I owe them {$440.00}. This is false. I confirmed with XXXX directly that there was no balance owed. The reference number for this interaction is : XXXX. My credit score was severely affected by this. I lost over 50 points of my credit score due to this. I filed a dispute with XXXX and they sent me an email claiming that the debt is valid which tells me that there was not a proper investigation considering the fact that I confirmed there was no balance myself. As of the moment this is being written, the FALSE collections account has still not been removed from my credit report. My husband and I are applying to purchase a home in 3 weeks and due to the negligence of XXXX, and in my opinion, the negligence of XXXX in their investigation, my husband and I may have issues qualifying for a mortgage. I have worked tirelessly to build my credit score and for a false report to destroy it is just unbelievable. I have never missed a payment or even had a late payment. I have done my due diligence. How can a company send a made up balance to collections and ruin a persons credit score under false information and not be help responsible?

On XXXX XXXX, 2016, IC Systems placed a derogatory report on my credit report for what is described as " XXXX XXXX ''. I was never contacted about this account. I have disputed that this account belongs to me with the credit bureaus. By Law, IC Systems is required to contact me and at my request, provide me with proof of who owns the debt, who owes the debt, what the debt was for and the time frame the debt encompasses. IC Systems has done none of this. In fact, they have violated several FTC rules : 1 ) Every collector must send you a written " validation notice '' telling you how much money you owe within five days after they first contact you. This notice also must include the name of the creditor to whom you owe the money, and how to proceed if you do n't think you owe the money. I was NEVER contacted ... ... EVER. 2 ) Debt Collectors may not : give false credit information about you to anyone, including a credit reporting company. By reporting to the credit agencies without contacting me and proving/validating the debt, they are providing false information to the credit reporting agencies. If the debt is indeed mine, it is over six years which is the Statute of Limitations in Arizona. This also makes the debt noncollectable. What IC Systems is doing is fraudulent and intimidating. Plus, my credit score dropped XXXX points the day their report hit my credit report.

She stated that she could not locate the account with my name, phone number, or address. I asked if she could contact a supervisor to aid her with finding the account. Ms. XXXX XXXX, badge number XXXX, was the supervisor on call. Ms. XXXX searched for my account as well. They both looked at every person who has my name in XXXX and were not able to find the account that they are reporting. The last time that I C System reported to the credit bureaus ( XXXX and XXXX XXXX was Sunday, XX/XX/XXXX. After being on the phone for 44 minutes, the agent and supervisor could not verify any account in their system connected to me. I am filing a complaint because I asked the supervisor, Ms. XXXX if she could send out a letter verifying my association to this account and debt, she said that she could not do that because she does not see an account/ debt linked to my name, phone number, or address.

I have been disputing with a collection agency by the name of I C System. They have reported to all three credit bureaus stating that I owe them in the amount of {$1300.00}. I do not know this company and have absolutely no obligations to this company. The company has been contacted numerous times in writing and by telephone stating the account information is inaccurate. I have certified letters that were sent to the company dating XXXX 2019 and XXXX 2019. The company REMOVED the account from my XXXX XX/XX/2019 ; however, the company has placed the account back on my report XX/XX/XXXX. 2019. In my letters to the company, I requested validation, made pursuant from the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act and the Fair Credit Reporting Act, to validate competent evidence bearing my signature, showing that I have ( or ever had ) some contractual obligation to pay I C System and they have not responded to any of my correspondence. Also, I had informed them that any negative marks found on my credit reports ( including XXXX, XXXX, and XXXX ) from their company or any company that they represent, for a debt that I DON'T owe, is a violation of the FCRA & FDCPA ; therefore, if I C System can not validate the debt, they must request that all crediting reporting agencies delete the entry. Again, they have not sent any evidence nor have they responded to any of my letters.

Further I request verification of the alleged debt, including, the name and address of the original creditor, along with a copy of a signed contract with the creditor. Additionally any attempts to harm my credit history and rating by updating or changing dates after you have been informed that the debt is expired, is a direct violation of the FDCPA.

I do not think this is my debt and I do not have any more information to prove otherwise. I looked more into only and really many people have had the same issue of these companies showing up in their credit report with false claims of debt collection. Not sure if this is a scam of theirs but it should definitely be looked into just in case. Thank you.

I checked my credit report after getting a preapproval for a home loan in XXXX, 2022 and saw that there are numerous incorrect information on my report. There seems to be accounts that are business accounts that do not belong to me as well as charge offs and collections that are interfering with my going any further in obtaining a loan to purchase a home. I have tried numerously to call these companies within the last 3 months and have not gotten anywhere. They are very rude and intimidating. XXXX XXXX told me that I had no choice but to make a payment to settle both of those business accounts listed only in efforts to solve this issue but now after I paid them in XXXX of 2022, they told me that they will keep this on my report for 7 years anyway even though the accounts belong to a business and they do not have a contract signed by me for these accounts. The others, XXXX XXXX ( Original Creditor : XXXX XXXX XXXX ), I C SYSTEM ( Original Creditor : XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX ), XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX are inquiries that I did not authorize and need to be removed. I am now aware that these are also a violation of consumer law 15 USC 168b. I have tried so hard to fix this problem with my credit report and I feel very helpless. This is causing me severe anxiety and XXXX because I am not able to move any further. I am begging for someone to help me with this please.

XXXX fraudulently added charges to my phone bill. We had a total of 5 phones 2 for myself 2 for my fiance at the time at 1 for her XXXX XXXX XXXX daughter. The XXXX XXXX XXXX became defiant and moved out so we suspended the line and XXXX guarantee we wouldn't have to pay any charges for voice services on equipment charges. We paid paid all of our phones off and when it was time to renew our contract we decided to go with XXXX instead of XXXX due to us moving to a new city and XXXX had better coverage. We paid our entire bill and phone on the same day located XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX # XXXX. Sometime later I received a call from XXXX saying we still owed them and we know we paid our entire bill. So i asked for a breakdown of charges. The lady proceeded to tell me that when we ended our contract with XXXX that the line that we suspended and hasn't been paying for for over a year didn't get canceled and was reactivated when we canceled the other 4 lines. She couldn't explain how it happened or how it made sense to start charging for a line that was anyway suspended and not in use. I verified that it wasn't due to any equipment charges and she confirmed. This debt was caused either by intentional fraud in XXXX behalf or due to a system error. But the debt is not mine and XXXX needs to fix this as now a debt collector is trying to collect a fraudulent debt.

I faxed a fraud affidavit, the police report and submitted a dispute online regarding the fraudulent account. On XX/XX/XXXX, this account was reported on my credit file. The letter specifically stated that I had 30 days to dispute the validity of the alleged debt and they put it on my credit after 8 days of being made aware. They knowingly and willingly caused me damage and violated the FCRA and my personal credit rights. I called on XX/XX/XXXX, XXXXand spoke with a XXXX XXXX and informed him of the violation and the call was disconnected somehow, but after he verified that the account was XXXX out. On XX/XX/XXXX, I called very upset and spoke with XXXX XXXX, XXXX XXXX and XXXX XXXX to question why the account was still on my credit file. They simply stated that it was in the process of " being deleted. '' In the meantime, I was in the process of shopping for a new vehicle because I was having car problems. Their reporting of this account resulted in me being left without reliable transportation for my family.

I have not received a response as of the submitting of this complaint. On XX/XX/XXXX, at XXXX XXXX, I received a telephone call from an unknown number. The caller stated that they were outside my residence to have me sign " court papers. '' I asked them if they were a licensed process server -- they did not answer ( they said " I have a certificate from the state, and I'm trying to just get you to talk to this company '' -- they did not confirm that they were or were not a process server ). This caller advised me to contact I.C. Systems at ( XXXX ) XXXX and to reference file number XXXX. I called the number, and referenced the file, and they pulled up the debt I had disputed with the credit bureaus and via certified mail.They still have not responded to my debt verification request ( as it has not been 45 days yet from the date of my dispute ), but, per the FCRA, are required to cease all collection attempts. In addition to telling me I had been sued and " had to sign court papers '' for a lawsuit I was not noticed for ( and a lawsuit which does not exist in my county of residence ), they engaged in debt collection practices today, which are prohibited per the FCRA while a debt is in dispute.

Debt collector " IC Systems '' sent a letter dated XXXX XXXX, 2017 notifying my daughter XXXX XXXX that she owes {$93.00} on a medical bill. IC Systems is collecting on behalf of XXXX XXXX. XXXX left XXXX XXXX 2017 to XXXX for 18 months and is out of state. ON XXXX XXXX, 2017 I called XXXX XXXX and confirmed that the debt had been paid. I then called IC Systems. I was very concerned that while XXXX was gone for 18 months that her credit remained in good standing. I told the representative that I was inquiring about why they sent the letter. The representative told me that if I was n't XXXX they could n't tell me anything. I told her that I was XXXX 's father and her legal representative while she was out of state on a 18 month XXXX. The representative became hostile and rude, and insisted that even though I was acting in good faith and was XXXX 's legal representative, she could not confirm the debt collection information or reassure me that the debt had indeed be paid off according to the Doctor 's office. I told her that I thought her actions were not right and that if her company sends a debt collection notice, when the legal representative calls to inquire, the debt collection agency has an obligation to confirm the debt amount, if owing. She insisted she could not, I told her I would then call the FTC and file a complaint. She said " Go ahead ''.

In XXXX of XXXX, I was lied to about internet service speed received from XXXX XXXX XXXX. Was told that they had the fastest internet speed in the area, but was not true. TV service stayed in buffer mode 95 % of time. Called to cancel service within 30 days and was advised that they do not have a customer guarantee program, but due to false advertisement of their internet speed in my area ( which interfered with my ability to watch TV free and clear of buffering ), I would only have to pay {$90.00} of the bill and they would credit off the rest due to the poor service received. I paid {$90.00} on-line. A few months later, derogatory information appeared on my credit report and I was contacted by a collection agency. I disputed and provided payment information and my credit report was corrected immediately. Now, 2 years later, XXXX XXXX XXXX has hired another Collections company to come after me. I disputed again and the results came back that the debt is valid. I also called XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX regarding this and was advised that they would get back with me in 7 to 10 days. I am still waiting. The agent advised ( when I called to question the collection activity ) that they do have record of the {$90.00} payment I made with the transaction number. At this point, I am getting the run around and being harassed by XXXX XXXX XXXX about a debt I do not owe.

I was a renter at a property at XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX XXXX CA XXXX. I moved out, and received a release on XX/XX/2016. I received my full deposit as well. I had called XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, and canceled my account at that address. The landlord/owner claimed he had family coming and stated he would have them continue service, but of course in his name. XXXX XXXX, made an error and did NOT change the name. I was never notified by any party, and only discovered a collection for {$290.00} when I checked my credit. I talked directly with XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, and they said I need to work with the owner, which is not correct since I could prove I had called to disconnect, and I also had proof of not living at that address at the time of the charges. I called the landlord/owners representative, a rental agency, and they agreed the owner would pay, as he had possession of the property. They never paid, and will not return calls at this time. I disputed with all three credit bureaus, and they did ZERO investigation, and let the collection. I.C. System, INC never sent any information to me, or request, and have inappropriately reported a collection without ANY investigation!!! Or contact!!! I have attached a letter from the owners representative, confirming, I now longer resided their, nor was I responsible for any utilities at the time this bill was referring.

In XX/XX/XXXX, XXXX XXXX XXXX agreed to accept my daughter and I as new clients, knowing he was leaving the provider XXXX XXXX, approx 2 months later. We saw this dr twice, and received a bill for over $ XXXX a few months later ( XX/XX/XXXX ). I called the provider under which the dr was working, and I was told to disregard the bill as my insurance was not billed for an unknown reason. I never heard about this again until I called in XX/XX/XXXX to schedule an appointment for my daughter and I. My appointment was refused as the provider claimed I still had XXXX balance over $ XXXX. An appointment was booked for my daughter However, my insurance properly billed, and my co pay was {$40.00}. Same insurance, same providers. Not only did XXXX XXXX vanish sending no notice about any balance, but his termination with XXXX XXXX XXXX was abrupt, unnoticed and neither XXXX nor XXXX contacted me regarding this debt, that should have been submitted to my insurance as agreed, and which should have and would have been paid with very little owed by me. Today, my credit score is affected and in turn, my interest rates, my commercial lease amounts, and my credit offers. I am a business owner, a collections account with no notice, and in violation of multiple laws, is now damaging me. I submitted a dispute and it simply came back accurate. I received nothing more.

According to the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), 15 U.S.C. 1681i Method of Verification and 1681a ( 3 ) ( e ), an investigative consumer report must contain accurate and complete information regarding a consumer 's character, general reputation, personal characteristics, and mode of living through personal interviews with neighbors, friends, or associates of the consumer reported on or with others with whom he is acquainted or who may have knowledge concerning any such items of information. Furthermore, in compliance with FCRA, 15 U.S. Code 1681e ( b ) Compliance procedures, I am entitled to review this information for its completeness, accuracy, and appropriateness. I am highly requesting as a part of your investigation : Which Neighbor did personally interview? Which Friend did you personally interview? Which Associate did you personally interview? The name of the original creditor The creditors ' address and telephone number. The persons name they verified the dispute with The Valid documentation used to validate the dispute. Also, the procedures your company has in place to ensure maximum accuracy with my consumer report. I have not supplied proof under the doctrine of estoppel by silence, Engelhardt v. Gravens ( mo ) 281 SW 715,719, I presume that no proof of the alleged debt, nor therefore any such debt, in fact therefore exists.

In late XXXX I discovered a collection on my credit report ( s ) from I.C. System, Inc. in the amount of XXXX XXXX, XXXX XXXX, XXXX Dollars and XXXX XXXX ( {$1100.00} ). I sent two separate debt validation request letters to I.C. System, Inc., both of which were sent via certified mail with return receipt requested. The first letter was sent on XX/XX/XXXX, and the second letter was sent as a follow-up on XX/XX/XXXX. Despite following the appropriate legal requirements for requesting debt validation, I have yet to receive any response from I.C. System, Inc. This lack of response raises serious concerns about the validity and accuracy of the debt in question. The FDCPA clearly stipulates that debt collectors must provide consumers with certain information upon requesting that I.C. System, Inc. prove that they are in compliance to collect such debt including the original contract with my signature of the debt, the name of the original creditor, and the amount owed. By failing to respond to my debt validation letters, I.C. System, Inc. is in violation of these provisions. I would like to emphasize that my intention is not to evade legitimate debts or disrupt lawful collection efforts. Instead, I seek transparency, accuracy, and fairness in the debt collection process. As a consumer, I have the right to verify the legitimacy of any debt being pursued.

In XXXX of 2020 I moved into my new home at XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX in XXXX. My new home was new construction and when I called XXXX to transfer service from XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX advised that they did not have the infrastructure to provide service to the newly constructed home. The tech on the phone explained that since XXXX was not available yet in my new neighborhood their would be no termination fee. I subsequently took the XXXX equipment to the XXXX store in XXXX and the store tech re-confirmed that there would be no termination fee. I returned the equipment and paid my bill in full and got a receipt. Subsequently, I received a bill from XXXX for the equipment and termination. I called them multiple times to remove the charges. Nonetheless, the bill was sent to a collection agency last year. I disputed the bill and remitted the receipt for the equipment. It has now been placed with a different collection agency ( IC Systems ) and they are offering a settlement. I called and explained this and they refused to provide an email address or fax number for written communication. The bill is for {$400.00} and I have already lost more than that amount in the loss of productivity because of the time spent on the phone. I would like this resolved immediately so I am not threatened with negative impacts to my credit by this fraudulent behaviour.

While checking report today, I saw that there was a derogatory condition for collections on my credit report and I started to get details from my bank and finally got to speak to the debt collector named I C SYSTEM INC. When I called them to inquire about the reporting condition, I was told that its a medical bill from my doctors visit on XX/XX/XXXX, I asked them if they tried calling me or send any mail. The lady over the phone was skeptical to give those details, she put call on hold 3-4 times and she stated that they sent a mail in XX/XX/XXXX, she initially mentioned that the mail got back to them. I have no recollection about the letter for collections being sent to my home address. The lady also told me after further investigation from her end that they tried calling me twice, but they did not leave any voicemails, everything seems sketchy to me. I feel that I am a victim of I C SYSTEM Inc 's negligence and lack of responsibility in collecting the right way and they just reported my credit stating I am not responding or paying the amount ( {$91.00} ). I have asked them to mail me the statement or charges from the doctors office, for which the lady said she doesnot have it and she has to request it. I dont understand how they can collect when they dont have details of collection. I have made the payment today to get out of the situation.

I am making a complaint against XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX because in XXXX of 2019 my account was compromised. I was aware that I had 2 lines on the account and then my phone was shut off due to lack of payment. I traveled to my local XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX to find out why the phone had been shut off and why the monthly bill was now way higher than the normal. After speaking with a representative at my location I found that there were now 22-23 lines on my XXXX XXXX XXXX account. I was shocked and so was the representative, solely because I had a personal account, which should have only allowed for a total of four lines. I was then advised to leave the account as it was and open a prepaid line so that I could have use of my phone until I could get to the bottom of everything. After another call to XXXX XXXX XXXX I was told that these lines were added to my account on XX/XX/2019 in XXXX. I was in XXXX, Florida at the funeral of my grandfather and could not possibly have added lines to my account that day. The only names on the account were my own and another gentleman of whom did not have authority to make any changes on my account. I, in some way, was still deemed at fault even given this information. I had no part in these lines being added to the account and have no idea how or who added them and should not be held at fault for these fraudulent acts.

I C systems is attempting to collect on a medical debt they erroneously acquired by XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX NC, LLC but has refused to provide me with any documentation or proof of service. Before it was erroneously sent to collections, a false claim was generated for services which did not take place. The erroneous claim was also sent to my primary insurer, who partially paid for services that were not rendered and were submitted fraudulently. XXXX XXXX was attempting to bill for services that did not take place, successfully billed my primary insurance anyway, and then sold a fraudulent debt to IC Systems. There was no service and therefor no bill could have been generated without committing insurance fraud. This has been an ongoing problem with surprise billing, balance billing and insurance fraud in North Carolina, specifically with XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX NC, LLC when they provide services through XXXX XXXX facilities. Additionally, XXXX XXXX XXXX, LLC did not contact me before selling this to collections, so I had no opportunity to correct the situation at the time of error on their part. I have requested itemized statements from both IC Systems and XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX and they have refused to provide them unless I mail a letter requesting it. I have sent two letter to the address provided and both have been returned to sender as undeliverable.

I received a letter from XXXX ( a division of XXXX XXXX ) that offered to " remove [ my ] prior debt '' if I signed up for new services. I checked my credit report on XXXX XXXX and discovered that IC System had reported a collection account opened on XX/XX/2021 in the amount of {$420.00} to XXXX. I have not had an account with XXXX for many years. We opened an account with them when we first moved into our home but their services were so unreliable that we closed the account shortly thereafter. All equipment was returned and the account was paid in full. I have received notices from other collectors in regard to this account in the past. Each time I have disputed the account and requested that they verify the account with XXXX. I have never received verification and the account either never appeared on my credit report or was immediately removed. In this case, IC System did not send me any letter indicating that this account had been assigned to them. Furthermore, the date they used when they reported it was false. I believe that this is a cooperative marketing scheme seeking to blackmail former customers who they should KNOW do not owe them by hiring a debt collector to place the account on those former customers ' credit reports, then offering to instruct that collector to remove the account in exchange for returning as a customer.

I initially contacted XXXX on XX/XX/2021 via written communication concerning an item listed in collection for the amount of {$210.00} published on my report by I C Systems. I disputed the item as " questionable '' as I have no idea as to why this is listed on my report. At the time of initial dispute " Affected by natural disaster '' was reflected in the comments. Prior to obtaining a copy of my credit report I had no communication verbal, written or otherwise with the collection agency nor have I recently been affected by a natural disaster. The result of that dispute was that the item was " verified '' and the " Affected by natural disaster '' comment was removed. I subsequently submitted a dispute for method of verification on XX/XX/2021. I asked specifically for ALL correspondence and conclusive documentation of my ownership of alleged debt. The response I received on XX/XX/2021 was a general response as to how XXXX conducts its investigations. It is my belief that this item in fact has not been verified and they have failed to comply with my request to properly investigate and delete from my report. To date, I have not received any form of response from I C Systems as result of this indirect communication. The item in question is still published to my credit report and the collection agency continued to report while in dispute.

XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, AK XXXX XX/XX/2020 IC Systems XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, MN XXXX I was notified by your company on XX/XX/2020 through A credit report regarding an alleged debt. I have reason to believe I do not owe this debt because I did not receive any communication from this company about a debt. Furthermore I have never given any of my information to your company. I request all of the following information be provided to me by mail : 1. The amount of the alleged debt ; 2. The full name and mailing address of the original creditor for this alleged debt ; 3. Documentation showing you have verified that I am responsible for this debt, or a copy of any judgment ; 4. Documentation showing you are licensed to collect debts in Alaska. Because I am writing you within 30 days of being notified by your company about this debt, you must cease attempting to collect this alleged debt until after you have provided the requested information. If you continue attempting to collect on this debt or seek judgment for payment of the debt without first providing written verification, you will be in violation of the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act. Additionally, the debt can not accrue any fees or interest beyond what is allowed by state law or by contract with the original creditor. Sincerely, XXXX XXXX XX/XX/2020 2020

In the past XXXX we have moved into several different rental properties. Each time, we returned our cable internet equipment per the agreement. We noticed that the branch office where we were returning equipment was becoming increasingly defunct and disorganized, each time becoming more and more frustrated with their services. Each time we returned equipment, we were told that all we needed to do was leave it with the customer service employee at the front counter and every single time we did. Over the past XXXX years, XXXX XXXX has attempted to report a debt on my credit report to XXXX. The other credit reporting agencies will not accept their request because it clearly lacks sufficient basis in fact for reporting. Yet, XXXX repeatedly allows this vague report of my credit as a collection. XXXX has been repeatedly told and warned that the debt they are claiming has no basis in fact yet they continue to report the debt to my XXXX ( only ) credit. The collection agency has also been repeatedly warned and told that the debt is not legitimate. I do not owe them any money for any equipment or any services and any claim that I do based on the incompetence of their employees is absurd. If the equipment is lost, it was lost in their possession not mine. Consumers have no use for cable internet equipment after the service has discontinued.

Greetings, My name is XXXX XXXX and im submitting this complaint myself and there is no third party involved. It has come to my attention that your company IC SYSTEM is making a conscious effort of being willfully non-compliant of a lawful document that has been sent mailed multiple times certified mail, submitted through the CFPB multiple times, submitted the FTC, and submitted through the XXXX XXXX XXXX multiple times. These classified documents. Corporate policy does NOT AND HAS NEVER superseded federal laws of the FDCPA, Truth In Lending Act FCRA, and Title 15. The complete disregard of my lawful documents and rights will not be tolerated. My consumer rights have been violated due to various US Codes and at this point I'm a victim of harassment and abuse by Wells Fargo. I will give 10 days as a courtesy for officers/employees/agents/CFO 's at your agency ( IC SYSTEM ) to review the documents I provided.It would be the IC SYSTEM legal departments best interest to do their due diligence and to settle this privately.One the enforcement of this lawful document goes into effect there will be NO further negotiations. I need to be contacted immediately regarding this matter. Attached to this complaint is a Validation of Debt, A Affidavit of Fact, that is due on XXXX XXXX. I don't consent to you marking my CFPB complaint as a duplicate.

I cancelled service with XXXX XXXX XXXX on XX/XX/XXXX on the basis of No Contract allowing cancellation at any time. I received a bill from XXXX that covered the period of XX/XX/XXXX thru XX/XX/XXXX. Only 3 days not 31 days of service was actually provided. I was contacted by a collection agency ( XXXX XXXX XXXX of XXXX. TX ). I sent them a dispute letter and a check for the amount which I considered owed {$17.00} ( XX/XX/XXXX X {$180.00} = {$17.00} ) as payment in full. They never responded to this letter or cashed the check. When I followed up with the phone call to ask what the status was and why I didn't hear a follow-up to my dispute, they said that the account is cleared and I owed nothing. Several months later I received a duplicate collection notice from a second company, I.C. System, Inc of XXXX XXXX, MN dated XX/XX/XXXX. Following dispute an " Account Validation '' was received from IC System which said {$180.00} is still owed. Package contained a series of statements that indicates that regular full payments were always made on-time with the exception of the last bill which is in dispute. It also included a statement subsequent to this last bill that indicates that total amount was fully written off by XXXX. Accordingly validation shows nothing is currently owed and a revised statement to reflect this should be provided.

XXXX XXXX XXXX cancelled my phone and internet service due to my adding XXXX service to my office in XXXX XX/XX/XXXX. It sent a revised final invoice on XXXX/XXXX/XX/XX/XXXX, which seemed to suggest there was a termination fee. I asked XXXX & XXXX for proof of any termination fee, as I did not have such a contract with them ; XXXX XXXX XXXX provided a copy of a XXXX page fax that did not have any termination terms and did not reflect the type of service listed in the bill. Despite having disputed the payment with XXXX XXXX XXXX and getting a resolution, XXXX XXXX XXXX placed the debt with XXXX. XXXX called my office repeatedly, and in XXXX XX/XX/2014, I filed a Notice of Dispute with XXXX XXXX XXXX. My attorney was assured that collection calls would stop while XXXX XXXX XXXX investigated the file, however, XXXX XXXX XXXX never responded to the notice with documents showing that I had any obligation to pay the {$1400.00} bill. Instead, XXXX XXXX XXXX transferred the alleged debt to IC System, which continues to call to collect a nonexistent debt. Litigation was filed with XXXX in XXXX of XX/XX/XXXX however IC System continues to phone at my office, where I am a XXXX, interrupting patient care. I have informed IC System that they are not allowed to call at my office, however, XXXX XXXX of IC System says that she will continue to call.

I tried to move. When they pull my report they told me I had {$1000.00} debit on my credit report. I called the company they couldn't explain and couldn't find notes. I called the agency at the time. They couldn't explain. I disputed through my credit report and they removed it. 2 months later they put it back under a different agency. I've had issues since then. This bill is not accurate. There is no way they would allow someone not to pay and they still have service. On one call they said I didn't return equipment. I found a receipt that shows I did in fact return equipment. Please help me. This is NOT accurate and it's wrong of them to keep reporting this year ' after year. I don't know what todo. No cable company is going to let you keep service month after month with out you paying your bill, but they are telling me. That's what this is and equipment fees. When I asked for an itemized bill. It started with {$300.00} something dollars ( no explanation ) then continued to add charges from there. Things that I wasn't suppose to be charged for was on there. I'm told they can't see the notes but I'm expected to just pay it. This is not right. I had not had service for 5 or 6 years when they put this on my report put the blue. I think it's wrong they couldn't get the notes and details buy they have a balance that doesn't make sense.

I had an appointment with XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX XXXX in XXXX PA in XXXX of XXXX in which I received no medical service whatsoever and was only given a questionnaire to fill out and told to return in 2 weeks. Upon return for the second appointment, I was asked for {$250.00} CASH payment up front, despite being insured, which I refused to pay and cancelled the appointment. I was not informed until the day I showed up about this request for CASH up front. Several weeks later, I received a bill for {$140.00} for the appointment in which no service was provided and I was only given a questionnaire and sent on my way. I believe this was done out of spite because I refused to pay the {$250.00} surprise cash payment, and I believe this business is guilty of shady nefarious business practices. They didnt mention anything about {$140.00} to hand me a questionnaire until I refused to give them {$250.00} in cash on the spot. In addition, I was fully insured by XXXX at the time and no attempt was made to rectify this with the insurance company on part of the doctors office. I recently started being contacted by I.C. System Inc. debt collections out of XXXX XXXX Minnesota. I called and asked them to please never contact me again and they refused, saying that they would continue to contact me over this supposed debt despite my federal rights.

***IC SYSTEMS IS INEPT- THEY MUST BE HELD ACCOUNTABLE TO CONSUMERS*** IC Systems continues to report a debt that was paid years ago. I have called more than 10 times in XX/XX/XXXX and XX/XX/XXXX to have it sorted out but THEY CAN NOT FIND ME IN THEIR SYSTEM even using my full name SS number, past XXXX addresses etc. Yet, they continue to report this to the credit bureau. They do n't call or write letters- I only see it on my credit report and then I call them. I asked them what are we to do in this situation as it 's not fair to continue reporting it if IC Systems ca n't find it in their system to even discuss with me! When I call- they all say the same thing- sorry I ca n't help you, we can not find you in our system! And yet they are reporting every month to the credit bureau. I informed them I would have my lawyer take it from here but it seems very unfair the burden and expense is on me for doing so. I do n't know how else I can force them to get this corrected and hold them accountable for this error and the time, energy and effort I 've had to put into sorting it out. Not to mention the effect it 's had on my credit score and likely the interest rates I 've been on offered on my mortgage for example. IC Systems should n't be allowed to give consumers the run around like this and punish us for their ineptness. # #

I was advised the debt could be settled for deletion in the amount of {$2000.00}. I advised the duration of time offer was valid, no expiration date outside of the payment in full was due within 30 days of first payment. Advised I would review payment online when funds were available to ensure full amount could be paid at XXXX time to receive the settlement. The call on XX/XX/2022 lasted in duration of XXXX minutes at XXXX and spoke with XXXX. I returned a call on XX/XX/XXXX to make full account payment for the settlement of deletion and payment of {$2000.00}, confirmed amount with rep I spoke with XXXX. She advised no deletion was available now or ever. Advised that I was advised that was available for account. I requested her to confirm with supervisor and listen to call recording from XX/XX/2022. She placed me on a two-minute hold and stated she spoke with a supervisor and listened to a XXXX minute call in XXXX minutes. I advised that was not possible and their company advised of deletion and needed to honor their provided settlement as it was advised on a recorded line. Organizations are responsible to their consumers and consumers are to rectify the accounts as agreed upon.

I was a loyal customer of XXXX XXXX for many years, i never one time was offered any promotions or upgrades on equipment. I called them to see if there was anyway i could get new equipment since the old equipment that i originally had was old and wasn't working properly. one of there representatives transferred me to their supervisor to assist me. the supervisor then told me that i qualified for an upgrade, and that they would send me new equipment and a tech out to hook it up. After a month of having the new equipment i received a outstanding bill for the upgrades that XXXX XXXX supervisor didn't make me aware of or discussed. i also found out that they started a new contract that i never agreed to. When i called to discussed theses matters they kept giving me the run around about my issues, telling me that they would have a someone reach out to take care of the problem but never did. i also made them aware that i was on new contract that i never gave authorization to. I tried reaching out to XXXX XXXX on multiple occasions but fell short with talking to someone that could help. After months turned into years after not speaking with anyone or resolving the issue i then get notification on my credit report that XXXX XXXX sold my bill to a debt collector. the amount of money that they are claiming is unfair and inaccurate.

In a good faith effort to resolve the matter amicably, I must demand proof of this debt, specifically the alleged contract or other instrument bearing my signature, as well as proof of your authority in this matter. Absent such proof, you must correct any erroneous reports of this past debt as mine. I am writing to request that you please provide the following information : 1.

I had a bundled internet, cable and phone deal using XXXX for phone and internet and XXXX XXXX XXXX ( XXXX ) for cable. Upon canceling the service, I received a final bill for all services and wrote the check directly to XXXX, as normal. In a couple months, I received a 30 day past due notice from XXXX XXXX XXXX saying my final payment of {$210.00} was not received. I called them and XXXX to complain and was told it would be rectified. More than a year later, a collection notice was put on my credit report for {$210.00}. I disputed the account and the debt was removed from my reports. About a year later, the same {$210.00} collection was put on my report, this time with a new collection agency. I called XXXX XXXX XXXX and they agreed it was likely XXXX 's fault and removed the collection. Now, I again have the same {$210.00} collection added to my account. This time I called XXXX XXXX XXXX and they now refuse to remove it until and unless I provide proof I paid it ( or have XXXX prove they forwarded the payment to them ). This account was paid out of a Sovereign account that has been closed for over 2 yrs and has been successfully disputed twice ( soon to be three times XXXX. I am at my wit 's end with these people. I have never received any collection calls from XXXX, but they obviously did not pay XXXX XXXX XXXX.

My complain is against XXXX XXXX, the way they operate is to provide services that people do not ask for and they just send them the bill. XXXX XXXXXXXX performed a fertilization service at my property in early spring last year, I called them and clarified that I didn't ask for the service, they told me that because I was a customer before they assumed I needed the service. I complained about them assuming and providing services that have not been requested and agreed with the customer. They told me on the phone in XXXX that they had deleted the charge and all and any account information that they had from me at the time. I am an individual that pays all my bills on time, however it is the first time someone does a service that I didn't ask for and wants to be paid anyway. I am sure if I did it once they would continue providing unsolicited services and sending the bills. I disagree completely with any company that proceeds that way. It is not about not paying the amount, since {$160.00} is nothing. it is about fairness in business. They claimed once that they sent me an email notifying me that they would do the service, I never saw the email and it would not matter anyway because that is also unacceptable way of doing business. I don't want anything to do with a company that has such wrong business procedures.

I.C System has been reporting debt that has never been owed and was paid directly to XXXX. In addition i have tried numerous of times to have issue resolved with them however they refuse to do anything about it. They never validate debt correctly, they provide wrong information to Credit Bureaus which in return damage my credit and reputation. Most recently for the month of XXXX they have affected my credit drastically by XXXX points by double reporting- this is not the first time they have done this back in XX/XX/XXXX they attempted to do the same however they deleted one of the profiles and continued to attempt to collect for the same items that have already been paid in full. This month of November they decided to double report negative inaccurate information once again. They reported account twice in one month with Zero Change one action was done on 1XX/XX/XXXX second action was done on XX/XX/XXXX which is in violation of the FTC Reporting Act i am emotionally drained and devastated with dealing with this company and all of their illegal tactics. It seems that they are not held accountable for any of their actions. I have already asked them to seize communication with me in addition i am ready to file a report with local police department as well as i have never owed this debt to XXXX or IC Systems.

I initially emailed XXXX and XXXX, a basic dispute letter asking them to verify that the information on my credit report was reporting accurately. XXXX responded with a generic response saying that it was updated. I disputed the account with IC systems, debt collector involved. IC systems responded that they will no longer be collecting on the account, and that they will ask the reporting bureaus to delete the information. XXXX had this account as a duplicate, they deleted one and left the other, Although I provided them with the letter from IC System. XXXX responded twice with Updated. How can they update an account was they was told from the debt collector to DELETE. I sent XXXX another dispute along with the letters, pointing out FCRA VIOLATIONS and another copy of the letter sent from IC sytames, saying for the bureaus to delete the tradeline. XXXX responded again saying that the account was updated. I called XXXX and spoke with a customer service rep. who told me that would open another dispute. They sent information saying they could not located my file in their database. I have enclosed all information below. I am seeking counsel for the violations in questions. Both XXXX have IC under a DIFFERENT ACCOUNT than the account number IC system sent. However the account number is WRONG as well.

So we started out current and then every subsequent month we had our amount due automatically deducted. We cancelled service in XX/XX/XXXX, due to our move to a different town. We chose not to stay with with XXXX. Our regularly scheduled payment came out in XX/XX/XXXX. I received a call in XXXX XXXX advising I had an amount due, to which I explained I should not. I walked through the payment history with her. She insisted it was correct. Rather than argue I paid the amount she claimed was due. Again believing this would settle my account. Then I received a notice from a collection agency stating we had an amount due which was what I paid in XX/XX/XXXX. I called and explained it is not due, ran through the payment history. Mentioning the extra payment I made in XXXX, showing there is absolutely no way monies could be due. They said they would research. I did not hear back so concluded the matter was settled. Now I see the charge of {$130.00} from collection agency IC System is outstanding. I disputed the charge and received no resolution.

XXXX Credit Monitoring notified me of I C System incorrectly reporting a {$700.00} collection account when I have never even heard of I C System. I have never received a single phone call or a single letter from I C System. This, of course, is in direct violation of the FCRA. I C System reports XXXX as the original creditor to XXXX. This is entirely FALSE. I have never once been late with my XXXX account which has always been in GOOD STANDING. In fact, {$0.00} balance is due as the actual balance of only {$6.00} which was not due until XX/XX/20 has already been PAID IN FULL more than two weeks in advance. The next regular bill is NOT DUE UNTIL XX/XX/20. Either I am a victim of IDENTITY THEFT or I C System is fraudulently attempting to collect a balance that is NOT DUE. I called the number that XXXX provided for I C System and no live person answers. A recorded message repeated itself before the call disconnected. There is {$0.00} due to XXXX and certainly there is {$0.00} due to I C System, whoever they are. I would like to know why they are fraudulently attempting to collect an amount that is not owed, why they have failed to send a single letter regarding their fraudulent collection effort and why they failed to make a single phone call regarding their fraudulent collection effort.

I discovered a negative statement on my XXXX credit report from the following company : IC System Inc. XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX. XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, MN XXXX The statement references a supposed debt of {$350.00}, owed to a company called XXXX XXXX. I have advised both XXXX and IC System Inc. on multiple occasions that I dispute the referenced account in its entirety. I have never heard of XXXX XXXX, and I have never used their services. On XXXX XX/XX/2018, I submitted correspondence to IC System demanding that they provide me with documentation supporting their claim. To date, they have failed to comply with that demand. XXXX 's response to previous disputes has been that, based on their investigation, the information provided by IC System would remain on my report. I can only conclude that their investigation consisted solely of asking IC System if the claim was valid, and accepting their positive response ( with no supporting evidence to prove its validity ) as truth. Because of IC System Inc. 's inability to support this claim, or their failure to do so in a timely manner, it is their responsibility to remove their derogatory comment from my XXXX credit report. Im not interested in the posting of a statement that the claim is in dispute. I want the claim completely deleted from my record.

I have disputed this account as a fraudulent account. I filed a police report, signed an affidavit and submitted an FTC Complaint. Since then the original account from XXXX XXXX XXXX was removed from my credit file. But also since they have sold the account to 3 collections agencies. 1st- XXXX XXXX XXXX 2nd- XXXX XXXX and now 3rd to I.C Systems. I have not received an communication from the collection company or else I would have told them it was fraud. I should not have to be subject to my private information being used and sold to a potentional fraudster. I am a victim of ID theft and this account should have never been able to be sold for a 1st 2nd or 3rd time. **** Please Note the Fraudulent account was removed each time from each collection company. However the I.C Systems account which was placed on my credit file in XX/XX/2019, was not. ***** This account needs to bee removed from my file again for the 4th time. Im going to have the Consumer Financial Protection post/pin this information because I am sure I am not the only one that this is happening to. Having to send my personal documentation every time XXXX XXXX XXXX and their 3rd parties try to asesnate my character has become more time consuming and costly and it is affecting my good name and ability to manage my personal well being.

I had XXXX XXXX XXXX cable for 6 months while I rented an apartment during this time period. When I moved, the movers put the boxes in the attic with the many other boxes. After locating the cable boxes in the attic, I mailed them back to XXXX XXXX XXXX. Last month, my wife went to the XXXX XXXX XXXX store to add another phone line and she was told that the account is showing that there is a balance of {$480.00} due to unreturned cable boxes. I contacted XXXX XXXX XXXX ( XXXX ) two weeks ago and the representative confirmed that they received the cable boxes. I called on XX/XX/2023, to see if this issue has been resolved and removed from my account. I found out that my account was sent to IC System Collection Agency. IC System ( XXXX ) advised me that XXXX XXXX XXXX 's policy is to still charge customers if the cable boxes are returned after 180 days - even though the cable boxes were returned and received by them. Attached is a copy of my proof of return. There was never any disclosure provided to me by XXXX XXXX XXXX of this policy either verbally or in writing. This is deceptive and abusive business practices. I am seeking assistance from the CFPB to have this collection removed from my XXXX XXXX XXXX account and from the IC System collection agency. They are trying to steal money from people.

On or about XX/XX/2023, I contacted I C System after I received a call from XXXX regarding my account being activated by someone. Immediately accessed my credit report to discover that there was a collection added to my XXXX Credit Report from a company called I C. I XXXX the company and called the company to retry and resolve the issue since I was unaware of the company. Once the agent came to the phone, I identified myself and let the agent know that I had been involved in a rash of identity matters and this surely must be one. I don't have XXXX. I've received any communication from their company and the agent stated that it's on your credit report and that's informing you of the debt. I thought that according to the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau debt collectors had certain steps they must follow prior to reporting the debt to the credit reporting companies. They must do any one of the following : 1. Speak with you in person about the debt. 2. Speak with you by telephone about the debt. 3. Mail you a letter about the debt and wait a reasonable amount of time ( generally 14 days ) for a notice that the letter wasnt delivered. 4. Send you an electronic communication about the debt and wait a reasonable amount of time ( generally 14 days ) for a notice that the message wasn't delivered.

on or about XX/XX/2023, I reviewed my consumer credit reports XXXX, XXXX, and XXXX XXXX and noticed collections on all three from a third-party collections agency so I decided to send them a debt validation letter requesting information on the so-called debt I requested the following. an original contract with a wet signature from the original creditor with a wet signature. the name address and and phone number of the original creditor. an itemized payment history associated with the account as to determine what is owed and/or that may be contested. proof of ownership of this debt and or whether they are even allowed to collect on this debt per law. I informed them they had 30 days to produce my request and or cease collection attempts and/or remove this from my consumer credit reports. during my 30-day wait, I discovered that this company via the NMLS that this company is not even licensed to do collections in the state of Iowa, whereas I am more than sure that the company has claimed numerous payments. I mailed this letter on XX/XX/2023, it has been about 50 days since I received what appears to be the last bill, with no itemized statement of the prior bill no original contract, and nothing on whether they are even allowed to collect this alleged debt they are not licensed in the state of Iowa.

I contacted IC Systems on XX/XX/2018 in regards to a debt they are reporting on my credit report from XXXX XXXX XXXX. I was connected with XXXX XXXX XXXX ( ID # XXXX ). I explained to XXXX XXXX that I had previously contacted the XXXX regarding this debt as it did not belong to me ( it belonged to my ex-son-in-law ). As a result of my XXXX complaint, XXXX agreed to remove the account from my name and delete the credit notation. XXXX XXXX indicated that he would mark the account as " disputed. '' I then asked what the process would be from there, and XXXX XXXX replied that IC Systems would take no action until they heard from XXXX. I informed him that it was IC Systems that was reporting information to the credit bureau, not XXXX, and that they are responsible for the information they report. As such, I urged that they contact XXXX to verify the validity of the debt they were reporting. His response was that it was not their responsibility to contact XXXX, but rather that it was my responsibility because it was my debt. I told him if they did not research the debt I would contact the XXXX. At that point, he provided his name and ID # and the call ended, with IC Systems continuing to refuse to research the debt they are reporting. I did follow up with a XXXX complaint which is currently pending.

I went on-line to check my credit score. The XXXX XXXX report showed that I had a delinquent report. Further investigation on my part showed that a company called XXXX XXXX reported me to the credit agency for non-payment of a cable service account in XXXX. ( I live in XXXXXXXX, and never lived in XXXX ). I never ordered cable service in XXXX. I never received any communication from XXXXXXXX XXXX : no e-mail messages, no phone calls and no written correspondence. XXXX XXXX forwarded this account to collections with IC Systems Collections, XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX. I tried calling them and could not get any information about this issue. I have never received any letters, phone calls or e-mail messages from this collection agency. I tried calling XXXX XXXX, and they refused to talk to me, but interestingly DID say that they couldn't find an account with my name or address. I filed a dispute with XXXX XXXX, and was finally notified that XXXX XXXX verified that their original report was accurate. I then called XXXX XXXX, again, and filled out an " identity theft packet. '' This was sent back to XXXX XXXX at the beginning of XXXX. I have not heard anything at all from XXXX since that time. This delinquent account is not mine, and I never authorized anyone to open an account in my name

On XX/XX/23 I filed a CFPB complaint ( Complaint ID XXXX ) for a fraudulent collection account that was placed on my consumer reports. On XX/XX/23 the company, IC Systems responded and stated that they were sending the account back to the company and removing it from my reports. The account was removed and has subsequently been re-reported as of XX/XX/23. Furthermore, IC Systems has inflated the balance due on the account, the alleged debt is {$5.00}, IC Systems has added a {$530.00} fee to this debt in order for it to report and intentionally damage my credit as debt under {$100.00} do not affect your XXXX score. It was initially reported as {$520.00} so they have increased it even further. IC systems should be held liable for willful negligence in re-reporting a fraudulent account that they were given a police report for, for harassment and abusive collection practices. I am requesting statutory damages in the amount of {XXXX ( 15 U.S. Code 1692k ) and a deletion from all consumer reports the account was reported to. If this is not remedied ( deletion and financial damages ) within 15 days of this complaint, I will be filing suit in Delaware 's XXXX XXXX. Please see the attached letter and pictures of IC Systems confirmation of deletion as well as the pictures of the account re-reporting.

Today, I.C. System, Inc. placed an erroneous {$86.00} XXXX XXXX cable bill as in collections on my credit report. I spoke with supervisor XXXX today.

I was notified by my credit report monitoring service that the account had been posted on my report as collection by I.C. Systems. I promptly contact I.C. Systems to try and understand what this collection was for and why it was on my report since I was not aware of any debt owed. The company has been unable to provide any information or offer a resolution. I spoke with a representative on XX/XX/XXXX, and was told that it would be best to dispute with the Credit Bureau. I took action and sent my dispute, spoke with the Bureau as well to provide as much information as I had. The Bureau conducted their investigation and updated the record to reflect " Affected by natural or declared disaster ''. This is completely inaccurate and not at all what was reported. I contact the original company XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, and I.C. Systems again on XX/XX/XXXX, and was told that there was nothing they could do since I don't have the details about the account. Even if I tried calling to pay the debt, they would not accept my payment. At this point, I have no other recourse to resolve this issue besides disputing again with the Credit Bureau. I just want to resolve the issue and have it removed from my report. But this company would rather hold my credit report XXXX and not work with me to resolve it.

I signed up for XXXX XXXX at a second house we bought. I signed up over the phone and I was not told there was an early cancellation fee over the phone. I was unhappy with the service and called to cancel. I was then told there was a cancellation fee but I disputed this because I was not originally told about it. The amount owed was sent to XXXX collections. I filed a dispute it was forgiven. Then without my knowing the debt was suddenly owed to IC Systems in the name of XXXX XXXX XXXX. It is the same account but now a new company is trying to claim I owe them the debt. I was never notified, they may have mailed things to that house but we sold that house in XX/XX/2019, also the house does not have a mailing address, the only address the company would have had was my home address. they never called or mailed me anything. I only found out about the debt when I tried to refinance my house. I paid it to make it go away. I was told I would receive a receipt, I have not. I called back and was told I would receive a receipt by the end of the day. But I still have not. I have paid the bill, even though I was not told about this cancellation fee originally and the debt has been given to a new company without me knowing and now I can not get it off my credit report or even proof that it is paid.

In XX/XX/XXXX, I checked my credit report and noticed an account in collection which was not mine in the amount of {$1000.00}. The company " XXXX XXXX '' which turned out to be a collection agency representing XXXX. I filled out a police report for Identity Theft, I filled out an identity theft report with the FCC, and I filled out a Identity Theft Affidavit. I sent these items to XXXX, XXXX, and XXXX. XXXX XXXX and XXXX removed to delinquent information from the credit report. Then In XX/XX/XXXX, XXXX hired IC system another collection agency to collect another dept of {$1500.00} which turned out to be the same fraudulent Identity theft account which was disputed back in XX/XX/XXXX. The increased amount are fees attached onto the first dispute of {$1000.00}. I have filled out another Identity Theft Packet and sent all supporting documentations to prove that the account does not belong to me. XXXX is still not cooperating with clearing the information from my credit report. The damage is that I can not refinance my mortgage to a 15 year loan until the information is removed. I feel the XXXX is being malicious because they new back in XX/XX/XXXX that this was Identify theft but they continue to file bogus debts on my Credit report. I need to get this resolved. I am the victim being victimized.

Please be further advised, I dispute the validity of the alleged debt in its entirety. Further I request verification of the alleged debt, including, the name and address of the original creditor, along with a copy of a signed contract with the creditor. Additionally any attempts to harm my credit history and rating by updating or changing dates after you have been informed that the debt is expired, is a direct violation of the FDCPA. Any abuse to my credit rating on your part will be met with all recourse available to me by the law. You are illegally attempting to collect an alleged debt and money that I do not owe. As per the law, cease and desist all collection activity, including credit reporting. I have disputed this debt with the credit bureaus and it came back verified I have since then contacted the company and haven't received a response. Where are the documents that your company used to verify that you are reporting these accounts accurately? What is the name of the person in your company who verified the accuracy of this account? What documents did they use to verify them? Please provide me with the name of that individual, their company title, and telephone number as well as copies of the documents that they used to verify that this disputed item are being reported accurately.

It has been 4 years since my bankruptcy and each of the three credit bureaus has denied me accuracy in reporting. This has resulted in me now having unstable and unreliable credit history.

Upon researching how to file this complaint, I discovered that IC System, the company this complaint is regarding, has violated Regulation F of the FDCPA. IC System did not include an itemized list of charges. IC System did not include a returnable form allowing the consumer to check a box for " This is not my debt '', " This amount is wrong '', or " Other ''. Regulation F requires this to be included in the validation letter, and IC System is in direct violation. IC System has unexplained charges on their debt validation letter. I'm unsure of how to upload a copy of this letter to the CFPB. It lists {$430.00} as " Previous Balance '', which is not a validation of the debt, and has no explanation of where this balance came from. IC System did not send me required correspondence within XXXX days of initial contact, which is required by the FDCPA. IC System has falsely reported negative information on my credit reports after being disputed, and they have refused to discuss a remedy for this false reporting. IC System has caused me measurable harm, and is liable under the FDCPA for up to {$1000.00} in civil penalties. This is an attempt to resolve the matter and have myself made whole. If IC System refuses to resolve the matter with the CFPB intervention, I will be filing a lawsuit.

IC Systems is reporting an erroneous debt on my credit file. I recently checked my credit and noticed this debt was reporting. I immediately called and settled this debt. I however, never received any calls, notices, or letters from XXXX XXXX XXXX about this debt. This violates my 30 day right to dispute under the FCRA. This must be removed immediately as you violated my rights as a consumer. I am also aware that while this account is under review you lawfully can not report this on my credit until your investigation is over. If your office continues to report invalidated information to any of the three credit bureaus this action might constitute fraud under both federal and state laws. Due to this fact, if any negative mark is found or continues to report on my credit report by your company I will not hesitate to bringing legal action against you and complain to the Attorney General for the following : Violation of the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act & Defamation of character. During this period, if any action is taken which could be considered detrimental to any of my credit reports, I will consult with legal counsel for suite . All references to this account must be deleted and completely removed from my credit file and copy of such deletion request shall be sent to me immediately.

I was a XXXX customer for about five ( 5 ) years and I always have device protection insurance. In 2018, I upgraded two ( 2 ) devices on my account through promotion. A couple weeks after the upgrade, I accidentally dropped my phone. I went back to XXXX the retail store to get my phone screen replace only to find out that my deductible has increased from {$100.00} to {$150.00}. I asked the agent why I was not informed about that increase and his answer was that the person who served me was novice. I wanted to pay off the damage phone and return the other phone so I can close my account. Also to find out that through that promotion I just signed a new two ( 2 ) agreement with them. Again, I waas not informed. I don't think as an existing customer, with five ( 5 ) device on my account, my agreement should change when I upgrade two ( 2 ) phone. At least, someboby in the store should have told me. I was not happy with the way they were handling the situation so left all the devices on the counter with them. I got couple bills from XXXX and called the customer service and explained everything to them. I was told that they will look into the situation to call me back but never did. Only time I got called is to take of the bill. Now, many years later I am being reported to a collection bureau.

To whom it may concern, I had a debt with XXXX and the debt was sold to I.C Systems. The debt was in the amount of XXXX dollars. The gentleman I spoke with regarding the debt offered me a settlement of XXXX and assured me that they do pay to deletes. I kept notes of every payment made, recordings of all phone calls, and also every notice sent in the mail. My last payment with my account was on XX/XX/XXXX. The following week I called to make sure that my account was paid in full and the young lady assured me that it was paid in full and even sent me out a notice stating that it has been paid with a balance of XXXX. When I called today to see when the account would be deleted from my credit report, theyre stating that I now owe a balance of {$210.00} because XXXX has very strict payment arrangements. When I made my last payment with them on XX/XX/XXXX. I asked them if I still owed a balance then why wasnt the balance coming from my account because I had my account set up for automatic payments. She stated that no bank account info was on file. I thanked her and disconnected the call and told her that I would be filing a complaint because at this point theyre trying to get more money from me than what we agreed and I refuse to pay a XXXX more. If documentation is needed, I will provide it.

The only reason, I have not filed suit and a Motion to Compel, removal of this falsehood, is because, I am uncertain where to serve the reporting agency with a Duces Tecum subpoena included. Please interceded. I requested in XX/XX/2019, from IC Systems , Inc, any proof of a contract or service and type of service. The only repetitive statement, they have to substantiate this false alleged debt is that it matches my social security number. This disparity in reporting has had a substantial adverse effect on me psychologically, physically and financially. No legal basis exists for any contract in this case. I have not hired or requested any products from the agency IC Systems Intl , Inc, bought this issue from ( XXXX XXXX ). I am on public assistance and XXXX with very restricted financial services to challenge the falsehood this company asserts against me. Thank you for your, time, courtesies and efforts in advance.

An account for XXXX XXXX keeps appearing on my credit report and keeps making my credit score go down. This is NOT my account. I called the collection agency that was listed and they told me that I had services in XXXX, FL and I told them that I have never lived in XXXX, FL ( where the service emanated from ). I have lived in New Jersey my entire life and I never live in any part of Florida. The amount of the debt is {$750.00}. I also filed a dispute with XXXX and they said they have verified this debt as being correct. I disputed this same account twice before with XXXX and both times they were removed from my account because they were found not to be me and considered to be FRAUDULENT. It is now appearing again on my account and I need it removed. I have sent XXXX information again stating that I have never lived in Florida ( which they also matched against my credit report and verified ) and I have also sent information to I.C. Systems, Inc. who said they would FLAG the account as being FRAUDULENT. I have absolutely NO bills that have ever emanated out of Florida. I really need this permanently deleted from my credit file. PLEASE HELP! Thank you. Information : Original Company : XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX : I.C. Systems, Inc. Amount : {$750.00} Date Opened : Can not see those details.

Hello, I had disputed some accounts to be removed from my credit report by all three credit bureaus between on XX/XX/XXXX through XX/XX/XXXX. I have already contacted all three credit bureaus as well as the company that is reporting on the accounts. Please refer to the attachments. The original account names were I C SYSTEM INC| Account Number XXXX I C SYSTEM INC| Account Number XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX / XXXX Account Number XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX| XXXX XXXX XXXX xxxxxxxxxxxx XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX have reached out to these companies stating that these accounts have nothing to do with me. They once again are charging me for it. I have sent proof and notarized letters to all three-credit bureau. Please help me out. I have reached out to XXXX XXXX and XXXX. They are not wanting to help even with the proof that has been provided. I am even having issues with XXXX XXXX XXXX Account Number XXXX over my school loans, I attended XXXX XXXX from XXXX, they made me take put loans and even promised me internships and jobs but did not deliver. The school closed down and none of the credits are transferrable to other colleges. They even made my mother take out a separate loan, were still stuck trying to figure out how we ended up with multiple loans. Once again please help.

On XX/XX/XXXX I paid in full upfront for one year of service for my rental property with XXXX. That service was completed on XX/XX/XXXX. Then in the fall of XXXX, I receive a call from XXXX asking for payment for the fall treatment. I told the lady, I paid for the one year service and was finished with my service. I did not ask for or authorize XXXX to go back out to the property after my paid in full service was completed. She put me on hold, had a conversation with someone, came back to the phone and said she understood and would write it off and take care of the {$70.00} charge. Fast forward to XX/XX/XXXX. I now see on my credit report as a collection. I never received anything in the mail asking for this money. Only the phone call and I was under the impression the bill was writen off because I did not order the treatment. As you can see from my credit history, I have a very high credit score and pay my bills ontime, everytime. I never would have let {$70.00} go to collections. This is very disturbing to me that a service can be charged to me that I didn't ask for, then send to collections with no written notice to me along with a verbal conversation with the company saying they were sorry and would take care of it. Please have this collection removed from my credit. Thank you

I've been in dispute with XXXX XXXX with a debt that they think I've owed. The dispute started in 2019 when XXXX XXXX unilaterally changed the terms of service by changing the billing from prorating to monthly cycle. In my previous complaint to CFPB about XXXX XXXX, I presented my case and XXXX XXXX was not able to prove that it had communicated with me via any email, phone, in statements for paperless billing consumers or any other forms that are applicable to paperless billing consumers about this change and I wasn't aware of this change until I ended my services with XXXX XXXX. I disputed the debt and XXXX XXXX and I have been hung on this issue. Currently, XXXX XXXX has sold the wrongful billing statement to different debt collection agencies over the years and now I'm being harassed by different debt collection agency every year with a disputed debt Validation Letter and hence I now have to deal with said agencies. The new agency is IC, systems to whom the debt has now been sold to and despite explaining to them the issue, this process is not working and I'm afraid this debt with show up my credit report despite it being fraudulent. I, request, IC systems via CFPB to immediately cease any attempts to report this to credit agencies without further as this debt is fraudulent.

However, in my records, I am unable to locate documentation that they complied with this requirement, which is a violation of the FCRA & FDCPA.

Please have them remove these collection accounts immediately.

After again noticing the debt on my credit report, I sent a Debt validation letter to IC Systems (XX/XX/XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX., A request was made pursuant to 15 USC 1692g Sec. 809 ( 6 ) of the FDCPA. As stated in the law, IC Systems did not cease collection activities, in fact, they recently continued reporting to the credit bureau. To date, I have not received a letter or phone call from IC Systems or any attempts by the debt collector to validate the debt they believe I owe. It has been more than a month since they RE-placed the debt on my credit report and 1 month since I requested validation. Last year when the debt validation was requested, IC Systems XXXXXX/XX/XXXX XXXX XXXX removed the debt from my report, but again for the 3rd time was recently added.

I have disputed this item with the credit reporting agency and they reported you confirmed the account as valid. I honestly do not believe to ever have any relationship with this collection agency or original creditor. Also there are several inaccuracies with this account the way it's reporting and that's a total violation of FCRA and FDCPA laws and regulations. In a good faith effort to resolve the matter amicably, I must demand proof of this debt, specifically the alleged contract or other instrument bearing my signature, as well as proof of your authority in this matter. Absent such proof, you must correct any erroneous reports of this past debt as mine. I am writing to request that you please provide the following information : 1. Please evidence your authorization under 15 USC 1692 ( e ) and 15 USC 1692 ( f ) in this alleged matter. 2. What is your authorization of law for your collection of information? 3. What is your authorization of law for your collection of this alleged debt? 4. Please evidence your authorization to do business or operate in this state. 5. Please evidence proof of the alleged debt, including the alleged contract or other instrument bearing my signature. 6. Please provide a complete account history, including any charges added for collection activity.

On XX/XX/2022, IC Systems contacted a person other than the consumer that they were looking for XXXX XXXX about an alleged debt and violated FDCPA and my consumer rights. The IC Systems representative told the person on the phone that they were calling to speak to XXXX XXXX and that she owed a debt. They never stated they were a debt collector, they falsely represented themselves stating, this account was placed at their office, which is not true. And they stated that they were going to garnish my wages which is another violation of 15 USC 1692e ( 4 ). IC Systems was not given permission to have and/or use my nonpublic personal information by requesting me to verify my social security number, which I never gave to them. I looked up IC Systems and they are clearly a debt collection agency, they falsely tried to represent themselves as an agent of the state of Kansas, violation of 15 USC 1692e ( 1 ). This is a clear violation of 15 USC 1692b ( 2 ), IC Systems is using unfair practices to collect an alleged debt. IC Systems has used abusive, deceptive and unfair debt collection practices and misrepresented themselves when trying to collect an alleged debt from a consumer. IC Systems has failed to comply with the provision provided under the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act.

After removing a false collections claim from I.C Systems from XXXX and XXXX, XXXX has now started showing a collections debt on my report. My parents received a letter at their house in XXXX ( I live in XXXX ) that I had a debt to XXXX and if it wasn't paid by XXXX XX/XX/2022 it was going to collections. I called XXXX and paid immediately. On XX/XX/2022. A whole month before IC Systems deadline. I have sent XXXX on XXXX separate occasions proof of payment and that the collections claim is false, but they come back with it being verified each time. IC Systems is falsely reporting this debt and it is negatively effecting my life. I called XXXX after the first time this hit my credit report, and they claimed they had not yet sent the letter that the debt had been paid to I.C Systems, but would. However it would take 60 days for it to reach IC systems, this was on XX/XX/2022, it is now XX/XX/2022. I will note that the nature of the debt was XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, you will see on the statement credit of XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX informed me if the missing XXXX XXXX were returned they would refund the XXXX I paid to them, which they did. Like with XXXX, I will be willing to involve a lawyer if necessary. This is a bogus debt collection.

On XX/XX/XXXX, my husband and I applied for a mortgage. Upon applying, we received a copy of our credit reports. One of the collection debts listed on my credit report is for a utility bill with the the XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX company for {$800.00} from XX/XX/XXXX. The debt collector is XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX ( Account # XXXX ). On XX/XX/XXXX, I made a payment on the debt account in the amount of {$600.00}, via credit card. On XX/XX/XXXX, I made a final payment in the amount of {$200.00}, via debit card. The debt was PAID IN FULL. On XX/XX/XXXX, I received a notification from XXXX that a new debt collector was reporting a collections account for the XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX company in the amount of {$800.00}. This debt has been paid. XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX sold a debt that was paid off. The duplicate account, now owned by I C System Inc ( Account # XXXX ), is negatively impacting my credit score, and I no longer qualify for a mortgage due to the impact the collection account had on my FICO score and credit worthiness to lenders. I paid the {$800.00} debt to XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX, but the payments were not reported, and the collection account is still listed, twice, on my credit report. The account still shows past due, and is being inaccurately reported.

I am a natural person and consumer writing this statement from my own knowledge and research of the laws that protect consumers from fraud and other deceptive practices that harm a consumers character, and reputation. I.C. SYSTEM is reporting an alleged debt and they are tarnishing my reputation and harassing me. I have never authorized this company or anyone employed with this company to do business with me, make an inquiry or view or report to my credit. I asked this company to validate this alleged debt and None of the alleged debts have been validated nor represented by the original creditor. These alleged debts are 100 % fraudulent and need to be blocked and removed. According to the Fair Debt Collection Practice Act, I as a consumer have the right to privacy and my privacy has been breached. According to my credit report, there have been alleged debts from I.C. SYSTEM, INC without my permission; using my name and personal information by which to do so. According to the Fair Debt Collection Practice Act section 15 USC 1692d I as a consumer have the right to not be harassed, oppressed or abused in connection to any alleged debt and the publishing of this false information has done all of such. I demand this fraudulent account be blocked and removed from my report.

IC Systems has contacted me almost daily for a week regarding medical debt. I have advised them EACH time that I am not currently employed and am unable to pay the debt at this time. On the call that took place approximately XX/XX/2021, I advised them that the address they had on file was incorrect and I confirmed my po box address so that they may send the legally required validation of debt, which they have yet to resend. On the call today, XX/XX/2021, the agent that I spoke to continued to attempt to delve into my personal life and finances which I advised her were not her concern as I had already advised I had no income. Once the call ended I called back to speak to a supervisor, I advised the supervisor that their company was in violation of sections 806, 808, and 809 of the FDCPA to which her response was that she would remove my number and listen to the calls. I again advised that at this time they were outside of the legally required window for validation of the debt and she stated that she would resend the letter, to which I quoted again that she was outside of the legally required window. I asked to speak with someone within the company who took these matters seriously to which she replied that she does and that she's removing my numbers and I should keep hers.

In XX/XX/XXXX or XX/XX/XXXX I contacted XXXX my cell phone provider about a second line that I was being charged for that was no longer activated and had not been activated. And had not been activated for over 2 years. The rep put me on hold and spoke to a supervisor and put a credit of 200+ on my account for fees paid for that line. A couple weeks later I got a notice of a balance of 280+ dollars. My account had one line at that point and the bill should not have been more than 70 dollars. I called XX/XX/XXXX and was told the credit was reversed. I got irate and threatened to call an attorney I explained it is not legal to give a credit that was approved th en decide to change your mind and demanded the credit be re applied. After a long hold the credit was reapplied and I was told to pay XXXX. My bill cycle started on XX/XX/XXXX I left XXXX due to thi s type of under handed nonsense on XX/XX/XXXX. So I should have been billed for 11 days of service. XX/XX/XXXX I spoke to 2 reps at XXXX XXXX in customer service named XXXX who was able to verify that he sees where the credit was issued but could not adjust it because the account was no longer active. Active or not XXXX is trying to bill me for 85 to 95 dollars that I don't owe them and I will not pay until it is corrected

I checked my credit report becaue my fico score had dropped drastically and I was confused as to why. Upon checking my credit report it showed an address I had not lived at and a company I did not work for. I called the credit bureau and filed a dispute. They informed me that I would have to contact the collection agency ( I C System, XXXX ). I did this and they said it was an outstanding bill for XXXX XXXX for {$380.00} and how would I like to pay for it. I told them I had not lived at the XXXX XXXX address and that it was not my bill. They then told me I could contact XXXX to see what they would do but until then I owed the bill.I contacted the XXXX XXXX Department and submitted all the information 2X but they have not called me back after I asked to speak to a supervisor. I gave them the last 4 digits of my social security number but I refused to give someone in the XXXX XXXX my full number. I was assigned a ticket # and I was told I should hear from them within 2 days and that was the middle of last week. I have since made a police report. I have lived at my current address for the last 48 years and in fact had XXXX during the time the debt occurred at my present address. I supplied them with utility bills for the time represented but so far it hasnt been removed.

In XX/XX/2019 I moved from the XXXX XXXX to XXXX. Prior to that I had mobile phone service with XXXX. I kept my number with XXXX for some months while I was settling. Once I determined I was going to stay in XXXX long term, I paid my final bill, and canceled my account. I double checked that the account was canceled by attempting to log in, and the account was closed. In XX/XX/2019 they sent me a letter for {$140.00} ( letter attached ). The letter stated I could dispute the validity of the debt, which I do, since I paid my final bill when I canceled the account. I wrote them a letter, and then they responded by email, saying I could call them or they would respond in writing. I wanted them to respond in writing showing why they thought I owed them more money. They said they would do that, but they never sent me another letter. Instead they gave the bill to a collection agency. I then disputed the bill with my credit agency. They refused to send the outcome of their investigation to XXXX, but the bill dropped from my credit, so I thought the matter was settled. Recently however a new agency has obtained the debt. I still can not get anyone to send me a letter stating why they believe I owe them money, and the credit reporting agency won't send anything to XXXX.

IC Systems Re : Dispute of Account No. XXXX XXXX XXXX To Whom it May Concern : I am writing to inform you that I have received your demand for payment, and I dispute this debt in its entirety. This debt was disputed directly to XXXX and was ignored. The basis of this charge XXXX alleges is that they claim the XXXX was returned damaged but failed to elaborate as to what damages they alluded to. Through XXXX ( which I retain copies ) I informed XXXX that the XXXX was in perfect working condition when I put it in the return packaging they required I use. I provided XXXX pictures of the phone as I packed it to assure there were no damages knowing full well XXXX would fabricate these claims to bilk more money from a dissatisfied customer. XXXX refused to provide me with proof that the XXXX was damaged. XXXX did not respond to my further requests for proof of their fictious claim. I dispute this claim in its entirety. If this debt is not reversed and or this debt is reported to my credit, I will retain attorney XXXX XXXX with XXXX XXXX XXXX to seek legal action seeking damages and restitution against XXXX and IC Systems. To validate this debt, I demand XXXX provide the XXXX in question to prove damages Thank you XXXX XXXX Cc : XXXX XXXX, CFPB, MN Attorney General, XXXX

I walked into one of their multiple retail locations around the U.S. to return their equipment after I changed to a different provider. Although I wasnt given a receipt for returning their equipment, I was assured, in person, that my account was resolved once I made the return. XXXX : XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XX/XX/XXXX Actions- calls/emails harassing to pay. Never verified my debt. All in all, none of these collections companies have failed to verify my debts, contracts with my original signatures, or my current address and the original creditors never received my consent to sell of my information to the collection companies.

This is a collection company many of several that are representing XXXX, XXXX XXXX that I have disputed on several instances. XXXX will remove for about 2 months and it will reappear with another collection agency listed but same debit. I have not received any supporting documentation from the provider with proof that this is my debt. I have however submitted documentation to XXXX via cerfitied mail with my ID, SS card and proof of residence. Each time a different collection agency appears on my credit report its under a another name and is extended for another seven years. I'm not sure what else I need to prove? Listed below is the last company that was added. This account was not opened on this date it is actually the date that it was readded to my credit report. Any assistance you could give would be greatly appreciated.This was the first collection agency that was disputed. Account # − XXXX XXXX XXXX XX/XX/XXXX. Same debt collector with XXXX and now it is I C System showing that it was opened XX/XX/XXXX $XXXXoriginal creditor: 11 XXXX XXXX and will remain on my report until XX/XX/XXXX. I was under the impression that the statue of limitations was 7-10 years. Each time that I have disputed the bill that start over with a new collection company and more years.

When I had XXXX XXXX ( XXXX ) I HAD to move, PER DOCTORS ORDERS, and requested my service be moved. They tried to charge me {$350.00}, just to move my service. Not because I wanted to move but, because it was MEDICALLY necessary for me to do so. I refused to pay that amount, returned their equipment, and terminated my service. I received an outlandish bill initially. When I called and spoke to upper management, my complaint/case was escalated. I never heard from them again. Then, this ICS Systems popped up on my credit ( XXXX ), I was told I could pay 30 % and it would go away or, I could continue to let it affect my credit ... I filed a complaint and they won ... Ive had NO CONTACT WITH THEM or XXXX XXXX in years. Recently, I applied for credit ( after 6 years of on time payments ) and was denied due to a recent non payment/late payment so, they took it upon themselves to affect my credit all these years later even though I believed and stated, my initial request to move service was and shoulda been protected by Americans with Disabilities moreover, a company courtesy under the circumstances with a DOCTORS order. I would like these people to stop reporting this as a recent non payment and Id also like to know how or if it can be removed under any Disability Act.

I canceled my account on XXXX XXXX for both phones. XXXX attempted to tell me months later that it is their " policy '' to refuse to cancel customers accounts on the dates their customers actually cancel but whichever date XXXX specifies. Additionally, XXXX attempted to tell me I had a contract. I did not. I had a leased phone. I only owed XXXX more nominal payment, which I made. When I started service with XXXX , I was billed for 2 months in advance. I paid that incredibly expensive bill. I still have a copy of that bill. I offered to provide XXXX with a copy of that bill. When I canceled service, I was never refunded for the prepayments of services that I pay on a monthly basis ; as it is " XXXX 's policy to bill at least XXXX month in advance. '' However, XXXX was billing me for an additional 3 months in advance. When I disputed the bill, they sent me to collections. I have had to hire an attorney to dispute the bill. Not only has XXXX sent me to IC Systems for collections. I have only received XXXX notice from I C Systems. I c alled IC Systems and in formed them that this was in litigation. They still posted this to my credit report against the FCRA. According to FCRA, punitive damages are also in order. This is illegal.

About 8 month 's ago i discovered i was a victim of identity theft which was very disturbing to me to find out that someone unknown to me had used my personal information to get credit cards, phones etc. under my name and since i was not aware of these accounts they ended up getting charged off and some ended up in collections.At that time i field an FTC REPORT and send it to all credit bureaus and notified them that i am a victim of identity theft. a month later i received my new updated credit report which showed they removed items that was opened up fraudulently, about amount later i got an alert that i have a collection account that is reporting on my credit report i immediately purchased a copy of my credit report and discovered a collection account for an unpaid telephone bill from company called IC SYSTEMS INC, I contacted the company and told them this is a fraudulent account that some one had used my information and the representative asked me if i have a police report and i told them no but i have an FTC report and she said if i get a police report she can remove the account from my credit report, obviously thats what i did and faxed the papers to them and the item still at my credit report. Also this account was not in my credit report originally.

Discovered a pending collection on my credit reports on XX/XX/XXXX : XXXX and XXXX. Collection Agency : I.C. SYSTEM, INC The report stated that there was amount of {$100.00} owed to XXXX XXXX, and was filed on XX/XX/XXXX. I had no knowledge of this amount being owed, and currently have two active accounts with XXXX that are fully paid for. On XX/XX/XXXX, I called XXXX to inquire. XXXX representative confirmed they had no record of any pending amounts, nor of having contacted I.C. SYSTEM, INC. It was also stated by the representative that they would not use a collection agency for that small of an amount nor that short of time, and would have made several attempts to contact myself first. I then contacted I.C. SYSTEM, INC to inquire about why this was showing on my Credit Report. They would not and could not provide any relevant information to what this account was allegedly referring to, and did not have any current or accurate information concerning myself or where I was currently living. I then requested for them to remove this, as this was a fraudulent collection. I.C. SYSTEM, INC informed me it could only be removed if I paid for the amount. I then requested for them to send me all information and collection receipts in writing which they refused.

I moved residence and changed utility providers on XX/XX/XXXX, so ended my service with XXXX and made XXXX what I assumed was XXXX my final payment. They failed to mail me any additional invoice or call me with any updates/outstanding charges and I thought that we ended on good terms, since I even returned the equipment and confirmed with one of their store representatives. On XX/XX/XXXX, I saw a collection from XXXX XXXX on my XXXX report for {$55.00}. I immediately contacted XXXX and spoke with XXXX. They ( XXXX XXXX charged me {$55.00} for an outstanding balance from a statement that they claimed was generated on XX/XX/XXXX. I asked the representative if the charge would be removed from collections and she confirmed that it would. I paid said amount in full, via their chat, and she provided me with a confirmation number. I then disputed the collection on my XXXX report and XXXX XXXX removed it, but I can only conclude that they sold off the debt to another third party ( IC System Inc ) because said party erroneously added an additional collection on my report on XX/XX/XXXX in the amount of {$120.00} for XXXX So this creditor was not even attempting to charge the original amount and XXXX failed to update the account information, which was paid in full.

In XX/XX/2020, I disputed a collection debt from IC Systems that appears on my credit reports with XXXX and XXXX. Sadly, each credit reporting agency reported the result of their disputes was that they verified the debt as being mine and the collection would remain listed on each of my credit reports with XXXX and XXXX. On XX/XX/2020, I called IC System to discuss the debt/collection they claim I owe, and I was told that the original claimant, XXXX had recalled their claim with IC System and that IC System had notified each credit reporting agency, XXXX and XXXX to remove the debt from my credit reports and that according to IC System records, the debt was to be removed from each report no later than Wednesday, XX/XX/2020. The collection/debt was removed from the XXXX credit report as advised, however, XXXX still had the false collection/debt appearing on my credit report and I am not allowed to dispute it again with XXXX because I recently disputed it and they claim to have verified the debt. Id appreciate any assistance you may be able to provide in having XXXX remove the false debt/collection with IC System for {$290.00}, as soon as possible as the decrease in my credit score is hindering my ability to achieve an auto loan with a decent APR.

I C Systems has engaged in harassment by continuously reporting the same debt to at least the credit bureau, XXXX. The debt was reported four times in less than 30 days. This was an effort to pressure me into paying them and obliterate any creditworthiness I may have had. The debt is in the amount of {$9800.00} ; the original creditor is XXXX XXXX XXXX. By repeatedly reporting the debt back to back my credit rating was destroyed. This tactic was intentional and deliberate. The debt was reported on XX/XX/2019, XX/XX/2019, XX/XX/2019 and XX/XX/2019. It is common knowledge among debt collectors that if a consumer disputes a debt this too may also lower their credit score. I C System Inc. abused the credit reporting system by not only using XXXX reporting to harass me, but also continuously report the debt in hopes I would dispute the debt as well. Since I received notification of the derogatory entry on my credit report, I have not claimed ownership of this debt ; however I C System continued to practice unethical debt collection practices via credit bureau reporting ( harassment ). Prior to the debt appearing on my credit report, I never received any notifications from either the debt collector or the original debtor so that I could dispute the debt.

Suddenly it just appeared on my Credit Report. They did not follow legal debt collection practices, I was not given 30 days to dispute this. As of right now, I have still never heard from this company. The damage is done. I am trying to get a new mortgage and move, but because of companies like I C SYSTEM COLLECTIONS # XXXX, who have MANY complaints such as the XXXX, XXXX, etc., I have to wait on unscrupulous credit collectors. I have never received 1 single item to try to verify this debt. I have never head from them. Now I have to waste my time waiting on this company. They never gave me the opportunity to verify the debt.

IC debt collectors put themselves on report 6 months ago. Turns out they are saying they are collecting for a utility company and the last time account was operating was 5 years ago????? Ive asked several times for documentation especially billing and payment history and they cant and wont provide me with anything. I told them several times social services was last handling and paying the account. I couldnt pay it years ago and social service took it over so the power to the home wasnt turned off because there were young children living there with me as well anyway the collection agency refuses to send any proof of any billing. I am not responsible for any of social services dealing with them. I lived in the house and didnt pay an electric bill for 5 years. I would see bills mailed and see social services make some payments but it had nothing to to do with me. Thats the law in my are I guess becasue thats how the electric stayed on all those years without be payng anything because I didnt have anything. So I C systems wont send me any documentation of anything. If they did the billing all those years back would show any payments made to the account were made by social services. Ive tried several times to explain this and all they do is make threats

XXXX XXXX sent an account to collections which has been attached to my credit in error as it is not my account. The account was sent to IC System for collection and currently has a balance of {$1300.00}. I spoke to IC System on XX/XX/2022 and they provided me with the XXXX account number, the name and spelling of the customer, the service address and the service dates. They told me that I needed to file a fraud report with XXXX XXXX. I do not believe that this is fraud because the agent I spoke to at XXXX XXXX on XX/XX/2022 said that there was no social security number used to open the account they are attempting to collect on. The name on the account that they are trying to collect on is pronounced the same as my first and maiden last name. However, the spelling of both the first and last name of that individual are different from mine. The service address is in a state which I have never lived. Now I am being burdened with filing a police report and getting a fraud report notarized in order to have this removed from my credit. It seems that they randomly selected someone with a similar name to collect the debt from. I was never contacted in an attempt to collect on the debt. I was only made aware when I received an alert from my credit card company.

IC Systems Inc. has continued to reflect a derogatory account entry on my XXXX credit report despite my efforts to challenge the validity of such. IC Systems has not once notified me of this alleged debt in writing. In particular, per FCRA, I was supposed to have received a dunning letter from them whereby I would have had 30 days to dispute the validity of such account. To date, I have yet to receive anything from this company. I have never heard of this company, nor have I ever conducted any business with this company. The mere fact that they blatantly placed this erroneous entry on my credit report and continue to report it is causing further detriment to my creditworthiness. In my review of this account entry, ( see attached documentation ), as IC is reporting on my XXXX credit file, they stated that the account was opened in XX/XX/2017 and they started reporting in XX/XX/ 2017. How then, did they allow 6 months as per the Affordable Care Act for any insurance payments to process? They did not provide the financial responsibility statement nor any documentation to support or justify this alleged debt. In short, this entry is erroneous and unverifiable and must be DELETED immediately due to IC Systems forfeiting my rights under consumer law.

In review of my XXXX credit report on XX/XX/XXXX, I noticed a " Collection '' account being reported by IC System Inc. I do not know who this is and why they are reporting a collection on my 3 credit bureaus credit file. I have not received any communication form them in any for or fashion. Furthermore, they have violated my consumer rights under the Fair Debt Collection Practice Act Regulation F. This law was enacted on XX/XX/XXXX and clearly states that Actions Which Must be taken Prior to Credit Reporting Prior to reporting a consumer debt to a credit reporting agency, the debt collector must now actually speak with the consumer about the debt, either on phone or in person, mail the consumer a letter about the debt and wait a reasonable period of time to receive a notice of undeliverability, or send the consumer a message by electronic communication and wait a reasonable period of time to receive a notice of undeliverability. The purpose of this amendment is to avoid the practice of debt collectors from reporting debts to collection agencies and then waiting for the consumer to contact them after the negative credit reporting is discovered by the consumer. This company has not done the above and should remove this account from my credit files.

This company claims that I have a balance of {$1700.00} with them, I don't know who they are or what it is that this company does. I searched online for some information on them and it says that they collect debts. I sent a letter to the credit bureaus that they are reporting this debt to asking them to validate this debt because I do not recognize where this debt came from and all that this company sent me is a copy of my credit report saying that the account was validated without providing me with an original contract bearing my signature. I know that the FCRA says that a contract needs to be provided to the consumer bearing his signature when validating a debt. I asked for documents that would show an original contract with my signature or something that binds me to this debt but up to this day I have not received anything like that from them. This company placed this debt on my credit report as in collections and it is affecting my credit worthiness really bad. I know that by law they have to provide me with a contract that has my signature on it. On my credit report it shows the name of this company but I never had an account or a contract with them. I want to see the contract with my signature on it that says that I agreed to pay this company.

I then called XXXX XXXX and spoke to XXXX different associates including an Identity Theft Investigator who also stated the process will take 6-8 weeks. I am currently having a police report competed and filling out the XXXX XXXX Affidavit. My concern is that neither XXXX of these business have a protocol in place for victims.

On XX/XX/2020 I sent a debt validation request to IC System Inc. regarding an alleged debt of {$75.00}. On XX/XX/2020 I received a letter from their office with information from the original creditor. Immediately I contacted XXXX XXXX directly and sent payment for {$75.00} via USPS money order dated XX/XX/2020 to XXXX ( original creditor ) : XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, NY XXXX. On XX/XX/2020 IC System Inc. FALSELY reported to the credit reporting agencies a debt for {$75.00}. They are in serious violation of the FDCPA Section 808 as they DID NOT provide a statement on their written notice which I received on XX/XX/2020 giving me the consumer 30 days to act on the alleged debt. It should be noted that 30 days of RECEIPT of their notice had not yet been met as of XX/XX/2020 the day they FALSELY reported this account to the CRA 's. They also are in violation of the FCRA as they reported the amount owed for this debt was {$75.00} which is INACCURATE. In addition they are attempting a debt during the pandemic which is a violation of the CARES Act specific to New York State.

This situation is over a leased cellphone buyout from XXXX. I overpaid for my leased phone and wanted that overpayment to go to owning the phone. I gave them excess money and cant even get a refund for it. I decide to cancel my service. I request a return package to send my phones in. When I finally received it I returned the phones and moved on with my life. Next thing I see is a charge for the full amount for the phones. I call XXXX up and verify they received the phones before asking if I owe anything. They look it up and see the phones were received I said ok cool and hang up after confirming my account was cancelled successfully. This XXXX bill saying I owe them for the phones must have been an error. I later receive a collections flag on my credit, I found out by getting denied on a credit application pull. I contacted XXXXXXXX shortly after about this issue and they confirmed that the phones were received successfully and I should not owe anything. They said they will contact the collections agency about this, and call me within 7 days. ( I recorded the conversation as well. ) they never called me back. Their verification is inaccurate and they are making me responsible for a debt I do not owe, and tarnishing my credit at the same time.

I received a letter from IC System back in XXXX XXXX, 2015 stating that I have a balance due from XXXX XXXX XXXX. I was shocked and researched the issue with XXXX XXXX XXXX immediately. XXXX XXXX XXXX confirmed with me on the phone and in writing that I did not owe them any balance and the communication from IC System is incorrect. Then, I contacted IC System to explain the situation to them on XXXX XXXX, 2015 and the representative ( XXXX ) advised me to mail them a dispute letter. Then, I did mail IC System two dispute letters. After I sent the dispute letter, I follow-up with IC System three times on the phone on XXXX XXXX, XXXX XXXX and XXXX XXXX, 2015. IC System advised me that the status is pending the response from XXXX XXXX, but they will not report my file to the credit bureaus as they still need to do a investigation. However, I just realized they reported my file to the credit bureaus few days ago without clarified my account with XXXX XXXX XXXX. I called IC System today, XXXX XXXX, 2015 and seeking for help. Their response to me is I am sorry they can not do anything about it, I can dispute that from the credit bureaus if I want to. I believe the whole process make me very frustrated and helpless because of the mistake of a billing.

I've repeatedly contacted IC Systems ( ICS ) XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, MN XXXX to ask that they remove an account previously with XXXX XXXX for Cable and internet services in the amount {$130.00}. The company has been report this account as in a collection status since XX/XX/2020. The account in fact was over-paid closed. XXXX actually issues a {$250.00} credit for the overpayment. I reached out to IC Systems several times starting in XX/XX/2020 to ask that they contact XXXX XXXX to confirm the status of the account and I was told that they would not contact XXXX XXXX to confirm the account. I also provided a copy of my receipt of the final payment made in XX/XX/2020 along with a letter asking that IC Systems delete to account. At the time I was just retiring from the military and trying to complete the purchase of a home. Due to the erroneous debt my credit score dropped over XXXX points over the course of 6mos and forthmore impacting my ability to secure a mortgage. I'm currently consulting an attorney to possibly file a lawsuit for damage as result of IC System 's erroneous reporting of this account. I'm also considering pursuing a class action suit again the company for it's practice. Please help.. Respectfully,

I repeatedly have asked for the final bill from XXXX. I left the company owing {$610.00} this was the amount showing in my XXXX app. After I left XXXX I lost both access to my account information and my ability to make regular payments. I have spoken to XXXX on the phone and via email to get an accurate balance. I've also asked then via email why the final balance is greater than it was before I left and to explain it. Not only have they never responded with the information, neither responded to my request to make payment arrangements for the balance... they just sent my account to COLLECTIONS for an exaggerated amount. I opened an email from IC systems over the weekend and had to check ( 2 ) acknowledgement boxes BEFORE they would let me access the screen that showed how much they say I owed which I do not accept. I do not owe an over {$900.00} dollar balance. They are trying to extort money from me and other consumers according to an existing lawsuit and settlement which is actively being adjudicated. My account does not belong in collections and they better not try and report this to the credit agencies as I have not be allowed to 1 ) access the system to pay the balance myself 2 ) make monthly payment arrangements to settle the matter.

IC System is reporting a debt of {$520.00} owed for a XXXX Account that is not mine. Not only is this debt not mine any accounts opened prior to XX/XX/XXXX should have been addressed in my federal Bankruptcy filing on XX/XX/XXXX. Neither XXXX nor IC System at the time contacted myself, my attorney nor the The Federal court. By law if IC System purchased this debt from XXXX they had a legal obligation to mail documentation notifying me of any debt owed, IC system did not do this. Nor have they provided me with any proof that a debt is owed to them. IC System has violated numerous section of the FCRA. I worked really hard to deal with any issues with my creditors during bankruptcy. XXXX had a obligation to show up and collect any debts they feel were owed. They did not. Also I have a current account with XXXX and if a debt was owed to XXXX it would have been due prior to activating services. IC system is attempting to fraudulently collect money they are not owed. I C system has until XX/XX/XXXX to remove this debt from all reporting or my attorney XXXX XXXX will be filing charges against IC system and XXXX on XX/XX/XXXX. This is my final warning to IC System, XXXX and all Credit Agencies you have 30 days to remove this or we will go to court.

ICS said the account was opened XX/XX/2023 but I had been with XXXX for at least 2 or three years. The account status says open but when I called XXXXXXXX XXXX fraud dept, they said there was no information on my account that I owe anything. I talked to customer service and they said the same. I had a debt like this years ago and it was paid because I had XXXX ( now XXXX ) after that, which wouldn't 've have happened if the debt wasn't paid. Again, years ago. This is fraudulent. I only received the debt from ICS and then they appeared on my credit report. I can provide my service provider billing info at the time for XX/XX/XXXX because I wouldnt have two different internet companies at the same time. I told them to prove i owe it to which they said i owe them in response. I disputed and they said in the email, " thank you XXXX XXXX for your help, you can set up payment arrangements for the amount. Back when they were billing me this- I called XXXX and the lady said someone at my old address racked up the bill. She said she would take care of it and I heard nothing for months until I had it on my credit. I don't mind paying what I owe, but not what I don't owe. I was part of the XXXX compromise and have had numerous problems since.

IC Systems is reporting an erroneous debt on my credit file. I recently checked my credit and noticed this debt was reporting I however, never received any calls, notices, or letters from IC Systems about this debt. This violates my 30 day right to dispute under the FCRA. This must be removed immediately as you violated my rights as a consumer. I am also aware that while this account is under review you lawfully can not report this on my credit until your investigation is over. If your office continues to report invalidated information to any of the three credit bureaus this action might constitute fraud under both federal and state laws. Due to this fact, if any negative mark is found or continues to report on my credit report by your company I will not hesitate to bringing legal action against you and complain to the Attorney General for the following : Violation of the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act & Defamation of character. During this period, if any action is taken which could be considered detrimental to any of my credit reports, I will consult with legal counsel for suite . All references to this account must be deleted and completely removed from my credit file and copy of such deletion request shall be sent to me immediately.

I was a XXXX customer. On XX/XX/2019, I returned to XXXX all its equipment. The same day I returned the equipment, I took another internet service with XXXX XXXX XXXX. XXXX received the equipment on XX/XX/XXXX, and I also called them to let them know that I returned the equipment. In XXXX, XXXX sent a bill mentioning XXXX past due. As a result, I called them to remind them that I haven't used XXXX for almost two months, and why they keep on sending bill to me. I also sent to them the return receipt along a formal correspondence in which I explained that I don't have in my possession any XXXX equipment. Surprisingly, in XXXX XXXX sent another bill with XXXX and XXXX past due. I did the same thing by calling them to clarify the case. In XXXX, I received a correspondence from XXXX mentioning that I have been disconnected for non payment, and I have been charged {$330.00}. All I have tried was in vain. Finally XXXX has sent the case to credit collectors. At least, three credits collectors have attempted to collect the {$330.00}. Right after I sent the proof that I returned to XXXX its equipments, they returned the case to XXXX. Now XXXX has sent the case to a fourth credit collector, which is I.C System. This is why I am writing this complaint

In accordance with the Fair Credit Reporing Act, I C System has violated my rights. 15 U.S.C 1681 section 602 A states I have the right to privacy. 15 U.S.C 1681 section 604 A Section 2 : It also states a consumer reporting agency can not furnish a account without my written instructions. With regard to I C System who is the collection agency responsible for an original debt owed to XXXX. First and foremost, I C System furnished my credit report to the credit bureaus for the purpose of investigating a dispute without my written instuctions which has violated both section 602 A and Section 604 A Section 2. Furthermore, the dates reported on my credit report are incorrect. The date the account is listed to have been opened is fraudulently reported. I have disputed this information with IC System in an attempt to rectify the incorrect dates appropriately, however, I C system continues to knowingly report false information on my credit report. Some versions of my credit report depict different account information than other version of my credit report reporting on this same account, a clear and obvious depiction that I C System is reporting incorrect information as I C System, themselves, can not even keep the information straight.

Few months ago I did a routine check on my credit score, which is normally around XXXX, the day I checked it it was about XXXX, not good. After hours of going though my bills and then downloading XXXX I finally figured out that XXXX XXXX sent an account to collections in my name. I immediately went to the XXXX office and spoke with a representative, she confirmed that I had no past due bills, and didn't owe anything. I called the debt collection agency, IC systems they told me they couldn't find the reason why I owed the money, on a side note they also had my address listed as a house I haven't lived in in over 5 years which would explain why I never received a notice. At that point I just used XXXX to remove the debt from my record which they did, but I am still receiving settlement offers from IC Systems. Also on the XXXX website I can only look at statements from 6 months ago or sooner, how the heck am I supposed to prove I've paid my bills when I can't even access the receipts? Everybody should know that XXXX XXXX absolutely decimated my credit score and they won't even so much as give me an apology, they literally couldn't care any less about their customers. I'd say stay away from XXXX but who else can you get internet service from?

XXXX continued to bill me erroneously for service after I physically visited them in XXXX on XX/XX/XXXX and cancelled my service and turned in my equipment. XXXX confirmed by phone finally in XX/XX/XXXX they had located paperwork indicating I had cancelled my service and should not have been billed. The paperwork was sold to collection agencies - this is # XXXX and is now being erroneously reported as a collection on my credit report. IC Systems is falsely reporting a collection for a debt I do not owe. My XXXX account was paid through XX/XX/XXXX and service was cancelled in person on XX/XX/XXXX. If anything, they owe me money. I have had over XXXX scores for over 10 years and now Equifax score is XXXX. This is simply not right and not fair. XXXX tells me this is too old to retrieve records since it 's over 2 years. The collection companies automatically think the consumer is guilty. My credit report says otherwise. I pay my bills and I pay them on time and often ahead - way ahead. I want this collection removed from my credit report and my credit score restored. I do not owe anyone anything! For XXXX years I 've had to put up with these collection agencies calling constantly and sending letters trying to collect a XXXX debt I do not owe.

I paid off and was assured my XXXX XXXX account was paid and closed after graduating law school and leaving my apartment in early XXXX, when my lease expired. Not only did they not credit my payment to my account, something that has happened before where they credited another persons account with my money, but they continued to charge me for the weeks of XXXX after my lease ended, and even for XXXX and XXXX. Then without even a single written notice or indication that they were submitting this to a debt collection company, and no possible way for me to expect it considering I paid these XXXX, suddenly my credit score drops from XXXX to XXXX. I find this out applying for a credit card, look at my credit score, and cant believe my eyes. They are billing me when its physically impossible for me to be utilizing the utilities provided, and they have simply taken my money and placed it somewhere it doesnt belong, kept my account open which means the new tenant and myself have accounts for the same unit in this apartment complex and XXXX is trying to double bill, and last but not least, they are reporting incorrect information and I plan to sue them if they dont expedite the process of mopping up their mess of sketchy and fraudulent activity.

I am writing to raise a serious concern regarding a debt collection placed on my consumer report by I C SYSTEMS, I have reason to believe that they have not followed the proper protocol as outlined in the ( FDCPA ). I C Systems placed a debt on my consumer report WITHOUT providing me with any information to dispute the debt. I did not receive any prior communication from I C SYSTEMS regarding this debt. I only became aware of the situation when I checked my consumer report and noticed a significant drop in my credit score due to the addition of a collection account. I promptly request that I C SYSTEMS provide me with debt validation within the legally mandated 30-day period. I also request that additional information in be provided to me in the letter to futher validate the debt. I am certain, that I C SYSTEMS actions are in violation of the FDCPA. Their failure to provide the necessary information and validation of debt before placing the account into collections is deceptive collection practice. This situation not only unjustly affects me but also violates the regulations meant to protect consumers! I kindly request your assistance in addressing this matter and ensuring that I C SYSTEMS is held accoutable for their actions.

In XX/XX/XXXX a delinquint XXXX account hit my credit report. I have never been a customer of XXXX. I contacted XXXX and they were very unhelpful, hung up on me multiple times. I froze my credit, filed the fraud report with all of the major credit bureaus, filed a fraud report with XXXX ( no response ), and filed a police report. After I explained all of this to the debt collection agency ( XXXX ) they agreed that I was a victim of identity theft and said they would cancel the debt. The major credit bureaus agreed and removed the debt from my credit report. Fast forward to XX/XX/XXXX and the same delinquent account shows up on my credit report, this time the collections agency is XXXX XXXX. XXXX had tried to collect the debt of an identify theft victim! A quick call to XXXX XXXX and the major credit bureaus and it was again erased from my credit report. Today, XX/XX/XXXX. I receive a letter now from IC Systems saying they will put the SAME XXXX DELINQUENT ACCOUNT on my credit report if I don't prove to them it's not my debt within 30 days. After filling out the complaint online it just sends me to XXXX antiquated fraud form that falls on deaf ears. This is clearly harassment by a major corporation of an identity theft victim!

XX/XX/2020 I received an updated credit report from XXXX where I noticed an account that was in collections for {$250.00}. The account was from IC System Inc for a medical service provided by XXXX XXXX. I disputed the account with XXXX and they told me that IC System has verified my identity and that I would have to contact them to remove the debt. I contacted them, verified my name and date of birth and address. They did not have my address on file correctly and could not match me to an account. I had to give them the account number that was on the XXXX credit report. They let me know I would have to file a police report and send it via mail. I sent it and waited a week, checked back in and they said they didn't receive it and it was nothing they could do. I waited another week and they said they did not receive it and it was nothing they could do. I talked to a manager who shared with me more details about the account with XXXX XXXX and it was an insurance company I had never had/used and she advised me to contact them. After my plea for help with this issue she ultimately told me that it was nothing she could do and that there was no alternative way to send in the police report to guarantee they got it. I was told to just wait.

I received a letter from I.C. Systems dated X/X/17, in regards to a delinquent debt from XXXX in the amount of {$56.00}. This is completely incorrect! XXXX had initially set up my account incorrectly and they closed my original account to fix the incorrect account, which is the account in question, and rolled over any amount due to my new account number. I am in good standing and have paid in full every month! I called XXXX and a very nice woman was able to resolve this matter for me and confirmed this was a XXXX error. She advised I file this complaint against XXXX so this does not negatively impact my credit. XXXX gave me a Reference # to confirm the delinquent amount of {$56.00} should NEVER have been charged at all or turned over to collections. This amount was incorrectly charged in the first place. I have had nothing but problems with XXXX from the very beginning and they have been unable to fix problem after problem! This is the last straw turning me into collections for THEIR error! They are an absolutely ridiculous company and I am sad I am currently stuck in a contract with them bundled with XXXX XXXX. What a horrible experience! I am happy to provide any account and reference numbers needed for this situation. Thank you.

I had an ATT account for internet only that was placed on hold in XX/XX/XXXX due to having to move aburptly. ATT described the hold as having a small payment ( approximately {$17.00} ) until I could install the internet in my new location. I moved into my new location in XX/XX/XXXX after living in hotels and my car. I moved to an area and an apartment that ATT did not service. ATT advised me that they did not service that area therefore I returned their equipment but continued to be charged until XX/XX/XXXX. I spoke to approximately 3 representatives and a fraud manager but found this account in collections for {$100.00} for the months that I had XXXX internet and was paying for XXXX internet from XX/XX/XXXX until XX/XX/XXXX. I began to receive calls for debt collections in XX/XX/XXXX and found these charges on my XXXX XXXX report from I C Systems on behalf of ATTXXXX for {$100.00}. These charges were disputed at least 3 times and resolved. Recently, charges have appeared again from XXXX XXXX XXXX on behalf of 11 ATT for {$100.00} for an account opened in XX/XX/XXXX. Completely not true. I had XXXX internet service at that time and never opened any other account with ATT. I have filed another dispute resolution in XX/XX/XXXX.

i recently sent a letter to the I.C. SYSTEM, INC and in That letter i clearly demanded to see and receive copies of the purchase agreement FROM THE ORIGINAL CREDITOR ( XXXX XXXX XXXX ) for the alledged debt, and the relationship documents with my wet signature of consent that allowed a third party to buy the debt ( Debt validation was never sent nor received ) and ive yet to get a response from them but they continue to harrass me phone calls with no proof of validation to collect on the debt. And if they have anything with my signature on it, than they are now beyond the allowed 30 day grace period to inform me that they obtained the debt which is a violation of the FCRA, IN ADDITION I clearly stated my request for them not to contact me by phone, at home or work or anywhere else. This letter was sent via certified mail with return receipt, which I have proof of. Since you have continued to call me after receiving that letter, you are now in violation of the FDCPA which I assume you know very well. And they continue to harrass me with phone calls and collections notices of debt that do not belong to me and if they continue to pursue reporting on my credit report than i would like to take legal action as soon as possible.thank you

I have continuously received a debt collection letter from a company called IC System. This debt is supposedly for an overdue phone bill that I owe to XXXX XXXX. The issue here is that I, XXXX XXXX, have NEVER been a customer of XXXX XXXX in my life. I have never owned an account with them. So this is either a complete mistake or fraudulent collection notice. This collection notice resulted in a " hold '' on my credit report with XXXX, which resulted in my denial of a loan with my bank. On XX/XX/2020 I opened a dispute on this account with XXXX. The dispute was settled on XX/XX/2020. However, this item was not removed from my credit report. I then contacted XXXX XXXX on XX/XX/2020 to dispute the collection, and was told they could not help me. The woman that I spoke with said that I needed to contact IC System directly to dispute the collection. However, I have called IC System on three separate occasions, and was unable to reach a service representative. I waited for a rep to become available until I could no longer wait. Thus, I was never able to speak with anyone. It is for these reasons that I am filing this complaint. I want this false/fraudulent debt collection completely removed from my credit report altogether.

As of XX/XX/2017, IC Systems has been reporting an open credit account for the XXXX. On XX/XX/2017, consumer ( through XXXX ) responded with a written request for documentation, including the following : a. Signed copy of the original contact ( s ) ; b. Any notice ( s ) of assignment or receipt of sale of the debt alleged ; c. Any notice ( s ) of delinquency ; d. Ledgers/spreadsheets/accounting statements showing how the debt alleged was accrued ( including any fees and interest charges added to this debt ) ; e. A copy of your debt collection rights license ; f. Proof that you are licensed to collect this debt in Arizona ; and g. Any other documentation which tends to show validity. It has been 30 days since this request, and we have received no response. Creditor 's failure to respond to a consumer 's good faith request for documentation makes it impossible for the consumer to make an informed decision regarding the debt alleged. This is a violation of USC 1692, and other federal acts which require lenders and debt collectors to act in good faith and refrain from unfair deceptive or abusive acts.

I have been receiving calls from IC Systems stating that I owe over {$1000.00} for a debt from when my son was born. When they first contacted me, they had an address on file that I had n't lived at for years. They also gave me a medical group that I have never used, but they used my sons doctors name who has also never worked for that medical group. I have repeatedly told them this is not my debt. I have contacted my sons doctor asking about this, they know nothing of it. I then called the hospital where I had my son. They also have no record of this. Both the hospital and sons doctors office say they have never used IC Systems as their collection agency. IC System is stating that my son did not have insurance for the first 3 days of life, but I called his old insurance and he did. They have not had correct information for a few things and I have been reserved about giving them more information because I stupidly gave them my current address the first time I talked to them before knowing what they wanted. They will not stop calling and I have told them I disputed the charges but they still say this is my debt. I never check my credit report but once they contacted me, I checked at once and found that this is on my credit report.

IC Systems reached out to me regarding two accounts one being XXXX, and XXXX on XX/XX/2022. They spoke to me about these accounts and we agreed that If I make a lump sum payment, IC Systems will remove all negative information from my credit file associated with the debt. We agreed to settle Account XXXX where we agreed that I would pay {$270.00}, for account XXXX we agreed that I would pay {$85.00}. On XX/XX/2022 I kept my end of our agreement and hoped that IC Systems would do the same. However as of Today XX/XX/2022 IC Systems is still reporting negative information regarding this account. According to the FDCPA has a strict list of laws that Debt Collection agencies must follow and IC Systems is violating the law by misleading me as to what I was paying for. At first I believed that this may have been an honest mistake on their behalf. However I submitted a dispute with the Bureaus and they wrote me that IC Systems allegedly " verified '' this. The call that the agent and I had on XX/XX/XXXX notates that I agreed to give IC systems a lump sum of money in exchange they would remove all negative information from my credit file. If IC systems is not going to keep honor our agreement I need to be refunded {$360.00} immediately.

Per XXXX contract and attached documents, as instructed we returned our phone equipment in the trackable mailer provided by the company. Attached proof tracking confirms they received it. they did not credit our account but rather shipped our account to a collection agency called I.c Systems who states they received the deb to collect from XXXX and they can not discuss anything with us other than payment in full. Several attempts to discuss with the original company but they refuse to discuss receipt of their equpment as shown in the attached tracking document. This false debt is now listed on my credit report. Furhtermore despite the young age of the report, immediately after I filed a complaint with Transunion, I.c Systems reported the debt as " charged off '' and will now not engage. The company is I.c. Systems. I.c. Systems is the collection agency for XXXX. I.c. Systems is reporting {$1000.00}. Each piece of equipment returned was promised as a XXXX.credit toward our end bill = XXXX total credit. If credited I would owe XXXX not the credit company amount of XXXX. The debt reported is incorrect. My credit score is being dmaged from this inaccurate collection activity / report AND I dont even have the equipment I returned!

I had an account with XXXX XXXX and after the account was cancelled they sent it over to I.C Systems. Which I then made payment directly to XXXX for the past due amount of {$240.00} on XX/XX/2021 to keep the bill from reflecting on my credit report. Which XXXX did not send that over once I paid. The collection company told me it was my responsibility to make sure they were notified that the bill was paid. But they sent an electronic request to XXXX for this matter. When they reached out to XXXX they contacted the wrong department for this account information. So when I received a letter stating that the bill still had not been paid, I reached out and they informed me that if was job to make sure they got information again. Which I called XXXX and after getting to the right department they said no I paid this account back on XX/XX/2021 and sent it over. But XXXX did not send the court date, and I C Systems are still telling me it's not their jobs to verify the correct information, and that I will need to wait for it to be removed my credit report or trying disputes with the credit bureaus. Which I do not feel that it is my job to go through all these hurdles when the company could make a few phone calls to resolve this issue.

I received notification that a collect account was reporting to my credit report from an account I have no knowledge of. I spoke to the original creditor who asked that I submit a fraud complaint form and I would receive resolution. The complaint was submitted and I was left a voicemail that the debt was validated based on a match from public records. I requested a signed original contract as well as any and all validation they have to prove this is my account and NOT a result of fraud. I have since proved to the CRA 's that the " public information '' is inaccurate and it has been removed from my file ( i.e. address ). The collection agency was able to provide me information regarding the debt by locating the account using my SSN. They provided me with the Account number which has lead me no where with the Original Creditor. When speaking to the original creditor, I have been advised they ( the front line representative ) is unable to discuss the account without the account passcode. I informed them seeing as how the account was established without my authorization, I do not have that information. I have been unable to receive resolution from either the original creditor nor the collection agency that is reporting this debt.

Mid XXXX I received a Collection letter from IC Sytems stating I owe {$41.00} to XXXX XXXX which is False and fully disputed. Upon receiving letter I called IC SYSTEMS to verify the information and to let them know I would be disputing the said debt. The collector verified the XXXX number I was calling in from and Identified as my cell phone and requested Cease and desisted all call to my cellphone. I sent in written my dispute and requested all itemised statements, contracts and validity of this debt. First week in XXXX I received some fraudulent typed letter ( see attached ) Saying I owe with no detailed explanation, contracts. Payments, receipts and statement to pay. Per REGULATION F this is a violation of a valid debt. There is no leagal documentation or binding contract from original creditor. SECOND. I started receiving numerous calls to my CELLPHONE, from multiple numbers. They would hang up on me. A representative finally answered and IDENTIFIED IC SYSTEMS AND A DEBT. I advised that I requested a cease and desist from my cell phone and I was transferred a coulple times where I was told I need to put NO CALLS TO MY CELL PHONE IN WRITING WHICH IS A BLATANT LIE!! This is harassment for a debt that is not valid.

Shortly after my current spouse and I went to finance a home and IC systems not only took payment the refused to follow through with deletion of account. My wife called and spoke with a supervisor who stated they listen to the call and told us they had an arrangement with cox cable to not delete when ask for documentation the supervisor refused to provide said policy and asked if we had an attorney. After we insisted on this being rectified we were told to contact an attorney because the supervisor stated that had no black and white written document stating said policy and the conversation was over and hung up. I want this deleted from my report I satisfied the debt in the time that was agreed to and all calls are recorded there, they need to rectify this immediately.

On XX/XX/XXXX, I was notified of a credit change due to a debt collector placing 2 derogatory marks in the amount of {$250.00} on my credit report. Upon review, I determined that IC System based in Minnesota was attempting to collect a debt on behalf of XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX in XXXX TX. Previous to the credit report change, I had never received any type of communication from either IC System or XXXX XXXX regarding my past due amount. On XX/XX/XXXX, I spoke with both companies and resolved the issue, finding out that the 2 marks were for the same overdue invoice from XX/XX/XXXX and that I only owed {$120.00}, however, I was required to pay {$250.00} to clear my account with IC System. I paid the overdue amount promptly, and on XX/XX/XXXX both derogatory marks were removed from my credit report on XX/XX/XXXX. I was refunded the overage amount of {$120.00} that IC System had charged me on XX/XX/XXXX. On XX/XX/XXXX, a new derogatory mark in the amount of {$110.00} was placed on my credit report by IC System. I called IC System but they could not explain why a new mark had been placed on my report and that I would have to take that up with the credit reporting agency. The credit reporting agency for all of this activity is XXXX.

Over 2 years ago my identity was stolen. XXXX allowed someone to open a XXXX acct under my maiden name. I have not been that name in over 10 years. The account was opened in XXXXXXXX and I have lived in XXXX for over 10 years. No matter how many times I fax the documents that XXXX or whatever collection agency they turn it over too they do not fix it. Even though everytime I call XXXX and refax the documents they assure me everything is fixed and not to worry. I just went thru this in XXXX 2016 and I am going thru it again now as they have reported the XXXX act against my credit/SS # as a charge off which has totally messed up my credit. I call XXXX and nothing gets resolved. I call the credit collection and nothing gets fixed. I have faxed and refaxed the documents more times than I can count. What does a person have to do to get something resolved like this. I have more than proven it is fraud acct that I do n't owe and should not be responsible for. I have done everything I have been told to do and still nothing but a bad mark against me that I ca n't get anyone to fix!! PLEASE HELP ME!!! I have been calm, cried, screamed done everything!! EVERYTHING THEY HAVE ASKED YET NO ONE FIXES THIS AND IT IS DESTROYING MY CREDIT.

I am writing this letter in because I checked my credit reports for accuracy as I am in the process of being pre-qualified for my very first mortgage through the First Time Homeowners Buyers program, and I saw another debt reported by I C SYSTEM from XXXX XXXX in the amount of {$1200.00}. Since I do not believe I owe this debt, I am requesting that you comply with Section 809 of the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act and send me verification and validation as well all documentation with my signature proving that I owe this debt ; and ( 4 ) A copy of your license to practice debt collection in my state. I am also requesting that you send a copy of this letter to the original creditor notifying them that I dispute this debt so that they can not report it as delinquent on my credit report. Likewise, if you have reported this debt to any credit bureau, I request that you also report to them that I dispute owing the debt. Please notify me when you have done so. If you need to contact me in the future, I insist that you do so by mail. I am not allowed to receive personal telephone calls at my place of employment. I also prefer that you not phone me at home regarding this debt. All future contact should be by mail. Thank you.

In XXXX of XXXX, I had a billing dispute with XXXX XXXX. As a result, XXXX XXXX stated I owed XXXX dollars. I disagreed and grieved the bill through XXXX XXXX. I never heard back from XXXX XXXX. Yesterday, XXXX/XXXX/XXXX I applied for a 30 year fixed mortgage. I wa advised that my credit that was over XXXX points last year was now XXXX. This adversely increased what my mortgage rate would have been if XXXX XXXX or the collection company had allowed me the opportunity to grieve or respolve the dispute. As a Result, I was forced to pay a bill in hopes the adverse bill could be reversed. This is extortion. I requested notification and records of the notifications of this outstanding bill that neither XXXX XXXX nor the collection company would nor could produce. I repeat, I was never notified that my credit was going to be adversely affected by XXXX XXXX nor the collection agency. After I paid a bill I was never notified about, the collection agency stated I would have to call XXXX XXXX to have this blemish removed from my credit, when I called XXXX XXXX, they stated I needed to call the collection agency. Someone needs to be accountable for this bully tactic. I am available for further comment or information if necessary.

XXXX has billed me {$480.00} for an account they claim was opened on XXXX XXXX XXXX. I have not been a XXXX customer since XXXX and my account was settled and closed at that time. XXXX is now claiming in error that I owe them for this closed and settled account. This bill was sold to a collection agency and has now hit my credit report and is affecting my ability to secure credit including a home loan. I have contacted XXXX but they have not been able or willing to resolve this issue. I am asking the XXXX to exercise it 's rights and duties under the authority of the XXXX and President of the United States to investigate this error in billing which has placed an undue burden on me and my family. The CFBP 's duty is to protect the consumer from such unlawful and unfair practices. I was made aware of this false and erroneous debt when I recently checked my credit report. I was never contacted by XXXX about this issue or this bill. This account needs to be expunged from mt credit report immediately as it is having an immediate and ongoing detrimental affect on my quality of life and ability to support myself and my family. Your prompt, thorough and corrective response is greatly appreciated and much needed, Thank you

Initially, I received notification on my consumer report under XXXX XXXX about XXXX, I wrote to them request a detailed debt validation request via certified mail dated XX/XX/23. I received a generic debt collection letter from I XXXX Systems Collections as a follow-up. I wrote again to I C System on XX/XX/23 and XX/XX/23 via certified mail and repeatedly received the same generic attempt to collect a debt, disregarding my request for specific documents for verification. That alone is a violation under FCRA. I wrote directly to the credit bureaus to request an investigation and it is simply being auto verified by just simply being on my credit report. I will provide copies of letters sent asking for a cease & desist until a proper investigation & render of documentation has been provided for this alleged debt. This reporting has damaged my credit report & caused a lot of losses for my family & I, by its presence on my profile. Please supply requested documents on the letter dated XX/XX/23 to validate this debt. Additionally, while this account is being investigated, I request a cease and desist of this reporting. Should this information not be available, I request immediate deletion from my credit report.

All I ask the company is to remove the information from all my credit reports until the investigation is done.

In response to Complaint # XXXX : If it is to be assumed that I.C. System was given consent to have my identifying information, then according to 15 USC 1692g, you were required by law to communicate with me before a report is furnished. If this is true, please provide the proper documentation such as a tracking number that shows correspondence was sent before furnishing commenced on XX/XX/XXXX. You admitted, " The account information IC System furnished to the credit reporting agencies was provided by the original creditor and has been verified by the credit bureaus ( XX/XX/XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX. ", while omitting the credit reporting agencies used XXXX to verify information through I.C. System on those 6 different occasions. This admission is proof that I.C. System is committing aggravated identity theft pursuant to 18 USC 1028A, extortion, theft by deception, securities fraud, and mail fraud. If I.C. System can not produce documentary evidence, such as a trilateral contract, of your claim that there is any legal obligation to pay you and if collection efforts continue I will file for litigation for actual damages caused and hold I.C. System criminally liable as well.

I had submitted a complaint against this collections creditor that is reporting on my credit reports. I had sent them a request for full validation and to date, they had not responded to me with the information that I am entitled to receive according to law. The Consumer Finance group just sent a reply to the complaint I made, which was XXXX. They just said this company would respond to the complaint directly by mail since they could not figure out who I was. I don't know what other information they would need. In the complaint, I submitted my information, my date of birth, last 4 of the social, which is way more than they have already. I also provided the registered mail / return receipt from the letter I had sent them to obtain validation of this debt. Their answer is generic and incomplete. The basis of the complaint is that they have not mailed me all of the items required by law. Why is the complaint closed. They not only have not provided any answers on the debt but did not answer the complaint. The reason for the CFPB is to protect the consumer, when a credit or finance company is not following the law. This complaint needs to remain open and this creditor needs to answer the initial complaint, which is XXXX

This complaint is related to complaints XXXX, XXXX, & XXXX, the last of which was filed yesterday. This involved a single alleged debt of {$110.00} which I have disputed with the company and which the company before today had reported to the credit agencies 4 separate times. In response to yesterday 's complaint, the creditor responded : " This account has been closed and returned to the original creditor. We will request deletion from the credit reporting agencies. '' However, I have just received notification from XXXX that the debt has been reported a fifth time today. Please see attachment. I'm pretty sure duplicate reporting of a single debt is illegal but now we are up to five times. This involves a disputed debt wherein XXXX charged me for a phone line that I never requested and never used. The contract that I signed with the company did not contain a phone line and the company 's records will show that no calls were ever made or received. Yet XXXX refuses to refund all overcharges because of the company 's " policy ''. In addition, the company is charging me for weeks of services that I never used after I cancelled my service and returned all equipment, contrary to the terms of the contract that I signed.

I sent out a debt validation letter exercising my rights as a consumer under the FCRA ( Fair Credit Reporting Act Section 809 ) and " I.C.

XXXX is reporting a collection debt from I.C. SYSTEM, INC for about 3 months now. This collection comes from XXXX with an amount of {$990.00}. The contract with XXXX was canceled in the same day and returned all equipment in the store. I also received the refund in my bank account for the paid but not used equipment. I.C. SYSTEM, INC is reporting XXXX opened : XXXX Status Date : XX/XX/XXXX Balance Updated XXXX ( every month they're updating the balance ( they never contacted me at all yet ) Also this collection debt was sold from XXXX to XXXX XXXX XXXX, the account was disputed via XXXX XXXX and deleted on XX/XX/XXXX ( see attached documents ). After deletion, AFNI ( another credit company ) bought the account and started reporting on early XXXX. I reported it again and the account was deleted on XX/XX/XXXX ( see attached documents ) Now again the account was sold to I.C. SYSTEM that are using fake dates to lift the impact on my credit score. A few days after I.C. SYSTEM reported it for the first time, I reached via phone to dispute it again. Disputed more than 2 months ago. Since then, I'm trying to reach XXXX to follow up on the dispute and I can't get any person to talk with and nothing has been changed.

I am writing this complaint because I was notified via mail of an XXXXXXXX XXXX account that has been placed into collection. This account and debt do NOT belong to me and are a result of identity theft! There are many inaccuracies in the information on the account in question. My name, the account was used at an address that I have never lived in or been associated with, the email address on file does not belong to me, and I have not physically lived in XXXX or rented or owned an apartment or home since XXXX. My parents have lived in the same house all my life and their address is not the one where the XXXX account was used. I have NEVER had any services with XXXX. As a matter of fact, back in XXXX I was a victim of identity theft and had to dispute a previous XXXX account that was opened using my identity. That dispute was successful. I have reached out to XXXX who is both the original and current creditor, but all attempts at having this account removed have been unsuccessful. I have also reached out to I.C. System Inc to dispute the ownership and inaccuracies of this account with no result. I have attempted to have this resolved many times since first being notified of its existence almost 3 years ago.

I.C. System, Inc., as a debt collector for XXXX ( now apparently known as XXXX XXXX ) has renewed a bogus demand to extract {$140.00} from me without providing any evidence that I have ever had a contract or other business relationship with XXXX or evidence that the modem I hold in safekeeping is XXXX property. I was first contacted by I.C. System, Inc. about this bogus debt payment demand in XX/XX/2021 ; I timely and repeatedly responded by certified letters demanding evidence of a contract or other business relationship between XXXX and me or proof that the modem I have in safekeeping ( having been left in the apartment I had rented until XX/XX/2021 ) was XXXX ' property. No such evidence or proof was ever provided, nor was any attempt made to explain the absence of such evidence or proof. Nonetheless, I.C. System and XXXX have just renewed their harassment to extract money from me without evidence or proof I owe anything or have property that is owned by XXXX. Such efforts to collect bogus debt on false pretenses must be stopped. No consumer should be put to the expense in time and money to address such fraudulent efforts to extract money without evidence or proof that the consumer has any obligation.

I have two accounts in collection for XXXX XXXX. I am unsure of how that happened because I do have an active account with XXXX. When I called and spoke to XXXX, they stated that one was from an address at my mothers house, which was paid in full but they say it was not, and we have proof. They said the other was from when I moved services, the representative said that instead of transferring the services, they cancelled the account and switched it to a new account and never forwarded me a bill for the previous property I had services at. Now I have two accounts with them in my collections on my credit report, but though some collection agency I have never heard of or spoken to. I have yet to receive documentation on the debt collectors part for those two separate collections they have on my accounts and credit report. One account in collection is not supposed to be there because it was paid for in full in person at a XXXX store, and the second one was at the fault of XXXX incorrectly transferring my services and instead canceling my account and opening a new one without my knowledge nor sending me a bill for the previous account. I have called XXXX and they are of no help and will not resolve the issue.

I scheduled service on XX/XX/21 for internet to be connected at XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX XXXX On multiple phone calls I stated that we must have a static IP address and was assured we would have one. My wife works from home so prior to moving we also called in to confirm the appointment and once again request a static IP as she would not be able to work without one. On XX/XX/21 the technician came out and did the install and when she asked him to write down the static IP down for her, he told her that there wasnt one. XXXX had sent out a Residential technician and not a business technician. I have spoke with them multiple times because this was an error on their part. We established on every phone call with XXXX that we would require a static IP address. They are trying to collect the residential setup fee but it it not our fault they made an error. My wife repeatedly made me double check that we would have static IP. I called and was assured that this was a mistake that the account was set up incorrectly and the residential account would be canceled nothing to worry about. They sent a technician out to provide the static IP address on XX/XX/21. My wife missed 2 full days of work due to a mistake by XXXX.

It was proven to XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX ( XXXX ) that the debt they are trying to collect belonged to my deceased grandmothers home at XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX CA XXXX - XXXX XXXX XXXX They constantly called me even after I asked them not to because I had muy own account with them in good standing but they didn't stop. My grandmother passed away and because I was simply authorized on her account because she had XXXX, they threatened me that if I wouldn't pay they would put this on my credit. I told them that was illegal and now my credit had dropped over 40 points because of this. They hired a collections agency who was given all of the information they needed to not do what they did. I am filing a complaint both against XXXX collection department and IC Systems because BOTH are responsible and engaged in illegal activity. When collection agencies or departments receive proof they are not suppose to just ignore it and cause hardship and suffering to people. The CFPB should also be using these complaints to investigate, especially because XXXX XXXX XXXX is operating a collections department and violating Fair Debt Policies.. I couldn't find their name as a company that we could file a complaint against.

i recently noticed on my credit report a debt collection. This collection is for {$78.00} and was added to my credit report on XX/XX/2018 from IC System. A collection company I have never heard of. This reporting is inaccurate and laws have been broken. Now we all know that collection companies buy debt and do such illegally. Also, we know collection companies will call, harass and threaten consumers to get money they paid another company for your debt. Also, even though a collection company buys debt, the consumer can still pay a debt to the original company. However, this company that added this supposed debt did not follow the law. According to law, you must first contact the consumer and make them aware of any debt to that is owed and be sure a debt is even owed, then you must send something in writing and give the consumer time to agree and make arrangements. Furthermore, this company failed all aspects. I know nothing on this debt, was never contacted by any means and I have not signed any legal document in regards to this company. I have contacted my local postal carrier and it shows nothing from this company. Now I have contacted my local attorney general office and family attorney on this matter.

Between XX/XX/XXXXandXX/XX/XXXX I.C System inc placed a collection on my account originating from XXXX XXXX XXXX that is said to be opened XXXX of XXXX. This information is inaccurate and the debt for {$770.00} is not owed to me. I have already disputed this collection from XXXX XXXX on my XXXX acct and had it removed showing as credence resource management in XXXX of XXXX. It seems as though my information is being sold and sold again. I have already stated the information is inaccurate, not validated and is not owed to me when speaking with them on numerous calls a day even weekends. I am asking this account be removed not only because it is inaccurate and not owed to me but I am in the process of buying my first place as I am a single mother of XXXX living in a house of XXXX. I had my credit in line with no phone bills as required and they slap this account that I am unaware of onto my credit hindering me from moving forward with this process. I am pleading for a resolution to my problem with this company. I take two steps forward and they hit me with something else. Although the accounts are unfamiliar to me it is still an Excruciating process to have your name and credit cleared of false information.

I have a collection from this agency and another on my credit report, The agency i would be addressing today is I C SYSTEMS Collection agency. I have spoke with them numerous time about getting this off my credit report, the first time i was told i would be mailed a form with 7 days, that i would need to fill out and foward to XXXX. XXXX Weeks of not receiving such, i than contacted them back. i explained to them ive been trying to get a auto loan and this is XXXX of the XXXX agencies holding me back due to a debt that is in fact not mine XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX. I offered to provide my birth certificate as well as state ID hoping this would expedite things since both pieces of evidences clearly state that i was a minor ( Under the age of XXXX ) at the time of these accounts. I can not have a civil conversation with amsher collection agency without being interrogated about this matter, i have been asked for payment on these debts everytime i call to dispute this matter, and ive just been getting the run around, I dont see why its so hard to remove this debt off my credit report since it clearly could not be my debt since all this was done before i turned the legal age ( XXXX XXXX XXXX ), to even sign a XXXX.

A sprint account in my name was submitted to IC Systems for collection. IC System contacted me and I initially made a payment agreement XXXX to avoid credit bureau reporting. Upon further investigation, IC System continuously tacked on charges each month with zero explanation. My principal balance would increase by $ XXXX {$40.00} each month after I made a {$100.00} payment. I disputed this balance with IC System due to their misleading representation of the actual debt amount, ( Fair Debt Collection Practices Act, Section 807, False and Misleading Representations ) and also the misleading information representatives at IC System would provide me with. Rep 's for IC would tell me to contact XXXX, while XXXX would tell me to contact IC System, and when I requested a detailed final bill of all my charges, IC System requested XXXX send me records of my phone calls for all XXXX lines on my account instead of charges breakdown like I asked. XXXX nor IC System returned my request for validation of the debt, and instead, referred it to a third party collection agency. Every action taken by IC System was in violation of the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act, Section 807, False and Misleading Representations.

In XX/XX/XXXX I had a debt for XXXX that was old to a collection agency ( XXXX XXXX XXXX ). I seen it on my credit reports for {$320.00}. They reduced it down {$64.00} and I settled with them and paid {$250.00} XXXX/XXXX/XXXX. They updated my credit reports and showed I paid it leaving a {$0.00} balance. Now XXXX/XXXX/XXXX XXXX illegally reopened that same account selling it to a new collection agency ICSystem saying I owed {$64.00}. I spoke to cox and both collection agencies. XXXX XXXX shows I paid it and sent proof to XXXX who then sent proof to ICSystems XXXX/XXXX/XXXX and I requested it be deleted from all XXXX credit reports and while it was being investigated for it to be put on hold. I also filed a dispute with XXXX earlier that week. ICSystem finally deleted it off of XXXX but illegally reported it again the following day to XXXX and XXXX and has yet to delete it off even though they are aware it was not a debt I owed. I had paid it XXXX/XXXX/XXXX. They also are reporting this debt 3-4 times a month ( once a week ) damaging my score as much as possible. They have refused to delete it off of all XXXX credit reports knowing that it is not a valid debt and after cox has told them to remove it.

On XX/XX/XXXX I mailed a dispute to IC Systems and to the credit bureaus regarding a fraudulent account on my credit report. ON XX/XX/XXXX I noticed they verified the information and proceeded to call IC Systems to get to the bottom of this situation. I was informed, based on a search of my social security number, that there was an account sent to collections from XXXX XXXX ( AKA XXXX ) for a service address of XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX in XXXX, CA that was opened in XX/XX/XXXX. I advised them this was not me, as I purchased my home in XXXX in XXXX and had no reason to open up any service in a different city. They advised me to contact XXXX and to " resolve it with them '' meanwhile they will remain on my credit report until XXXX advises them to remove it. This is completely abusive and unacceptable. ESPECIALLY because XXXX can not locate any account using my name, social, date of birth or address. This limits my ability to start a fraud investigation with XXXX as advised my IC Systems since they can not locate an account to initiate an investigation on. What am I supposed to do other than go round and round in circles wasting my time?? This item needs to be removed from my credit report ASAPPPPPP

A former employer has stated I owe him money. However, according to my records I have paid this debt in full and in fact am owed money by this employer due to an overpayment. I requested a verification of debt and proof this money was still owed after my payments and my former employer provided only a copy of an invoice that he typed- no backup, no proof. I however provided a XXXX Page document showing that I do not owe this money and that is has been paid in full and that he owes me money. This is a civil matter between my former employer and myself. Only a court of law can determine if I owe him money or he owes me, not some third party collection company. Furthermore, a copy of a invoice with no backup is not a valid proof of debt - anyone can type an invoice. This collection co is also reporting to my credit as rental/leasing debt which will hamper my ability to rent a property. I do not owe a debt stemming from any sort of unpaid rents. My prior company is a XXXX. I do not owe any sort of rent to them which is what they are categorizing it as. I have called this company and mailed them a letter stating I dispute this debt. Their response is that the invoice copy is a valid proof of debt!!!

The short version : IC Systems attempted to collect a debt for a service that I never received and was never invoiced for. I paid the sum anyways to avoid blemishing my credit. Nevertheless, IC Systems continues to report it as delinquent to credit agencies. The long version : My son used to attend an aftercare program operated by XXXX XXXX in XXXX. His last day in the program was XX/XX/XXXX. We received the final invoice on XX/XX/XXXX and paid it in full on XX/XX/XXXX. We did not hear anything further about our account until XX/XX/XXXX when a XXXX employee emailed us to say that we had an unpaid balance of {$66.00} for the week of XX/XX/XXXX. We immediately called that employee and asked her to send us an invoice. She failed to do so. After consulting our calendars, we determined that our son had not attended XXXX for the week in question. We considered the matter settled until sometime in XXXX when I received a letter from the collection agency, IC Systems, demanding the {$66.00} that we didnt owe. I went ahead and paid the sum to avoid blemishing my credit. The payment was processed by XXXX on XX/XX/XXXX. However, IC Systems continues to report the amount as delinquent to credit agencies.

I paid my last bill in XX/XX/XXXX and returned the equipment which was a router. In XXXX of XXXX, after no communication, there was a collections placed on my credit report in the amount of {$290.00} in XX/XX/XXXX and a creditor called me. I didn't receive a letter 30 days prior as I had recently moved. I told them I was disputing the account because I returned the equipment in XX/XX/XXXX. They told to call XXXX to dispute it. I did and they opened a ticket to look for the equipment and review notes on the account. I disputed with XXXX and the amount was changed to {$300.00}. XXXX searched for the equipment and found it. They emailed me and called me letting me know but then stated I still owed a bill. They then changed the balance owed to {$98.00} on my credit report in XX/XX/XXXX. I have disputed again ; then in XX/XX/XXXX the balance changed to {$84.00}. How is it possible for this collection agency to report XXXX erroneous amounts to my credit report? The equipment was found and my last bill was paid.

XX/XX/2022 after 17 years with XXXX decided to look for cheaper cell phone service. Saw XXXX advertised person over XXXX got a discount and also got a discount for auto pay. After talking to a XXXX representative in person saying I would not get the discounts and it would cost more than XXXX which I had for 17 years I decided to go to another phone carrier that was cheaper. My wife and I both decided to have our cell phone numbers ported over again after 24 hours. I made numerous attempted phone calls to XXXX to dispute the matter but they ignored my request. Also at the time my social security number was not given to XXXX. Now they have turned it over to collections and some how XXXX got my social security number. Since XX/XX/2022 XXXX is not advertising cell phone service for 1/2 of what they were XX/XX/2022. The information they gave me at the time was very misleading and their cell service also not working very well in my house. I do not have other means of telephone communication and need a cell phone to work inside my house. I have also received letter from collection debt collector that I have an attorney which is false and misleading. I request assistance in this matter. Thanks!

On XX/XX/XXXX I opened a letter from IC systems telling me I needed to pay XXXX dollars for a debt owed to XXXX internet. I was completely unaware of this debt, and upon confirming with XXXX I paid that debt with them that same day on that same phone call. I was then informed a letter would be sent to IC systems that the debt had been paid. On XX/XX/XXXX XXXX received notice I had negative activity on my XXXX and XXXX credit reports, it was an open collections from IC system 's for a debt I had paid. I immediately disputed with XXXX and they have removed both the open balance and the collections notice from my credit report, XXXX is stating after my dispute that their information is accurate and I have an open collections debt. When I called XXXX on XX/XX/XXXX asking if they had sent the letter to IC systems telling them the debt had been paid they told me it had not yet been sent, but it would get to them within 60 days. My credit has been immaculate, I've never missed a payment, am in good standing with all of my creditors and don't believe XXXX got this right. I am potentially moving states for a new job and this negative impact on my credit will greatly affect my life.

On XX/XX/XXXX, I got an alert from my XXXX account stating that a new collection was on my account from IC Systems in the amount of XXXX. I never received a call or letter from them stating that I had this debt. I remember earlier in the year showing a collection account on my credit from XXXX totaling the same amount. I notified them and was given information regarding the debt, and I told them that wasn't mine debt, because the service address was one I never lived at. The rep told me at that time that I need to submit an identity theft packet to XXXX who was the one reporting the debt. I completed the packet and even got it notarized, and submitted all the information to XXXX. The debt was deleted from credit report. However, now the same account is being reported through another collection agency. I've reached out to them and made them aware that this debt is fraud, and that I submitted the necessary paperwork to XXXX to remove this debt. This morning I received another alert saying that IC Systems flagged the my credit report again.

I moved and could not receive XXXX-internet service in my new address. I continued with the XXXX XXXX service and discontinued my services with the Internet. However, XXXX-internet services were not canceled and they continued charging it on my XXXX account. I was not aware of these charges until I was reviewing my account. They charged me for approximately 8 months at {$60.00} a month and on top of that also charged my interest and late fees. I have spoken to their representative who continues to tell me that XXXX reimburse me ( false ) and that I had to pay them {$470.00}. This is extremely unfair and unjust, I do not owe them anything and in fact, they awe me for charging me fee for no service. As they continue to state that I owe them money, I was and am still up to date on my XXXX XXXX bill, ( of which was combined with internet service ). In short, I am owed {$480.00} plus all the late fees and misc charges to my account. The representative admitted they owed me money, but that is when they hang up on me. I have called several times and have put on hold and transferred around. This is frustrating, I am attaching my last statement from XXXX XXXX XXXX for account number XXXX

I paid the final bill in full and all was to have been finished with the cable provider, XXXX XXXX. To my surprise, I receive a bill in the mail from the cable company saying I owe them for an unpaid balance on the account. After many phone calls it was settled as an oversight of payments due to XXXX files being created for my cable account. The amount was actually a credit of {$93.00} and was refunded to me in a check. However, XXXX XXXX sold the balance as a debt leading to issues with a collection company XXXX XXXX XXXX for a debt of {$93.00} from XXXX XXXX. After filing proof of the credit and pay off of the balance with CFPB that debt was to have been removed from both the debt collectors system on XX/XX/2015 at XXXX as well as XXXX XXXX XXXX. Recently, I received a collection notice in the mail from a new debt collector IC Systems trying to claim the same debt for XXXX XXXX in the amount of {$93.00} when there is no actual debt to collect. Enclosed is a copy of the refunded check from XXXX XXXX and a Copy of the Notice of Collection from IC Systems.

As of XXXX I have been disputing multiple violations on my credit report dutle to i.c. systems. First have not ever received any correspondence or notification regarding the debt in order to dispute the debt. Second, I have not given ANY EXPLICIT PERMISSION, to XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX to sell my personal informations which is a complete violation of my HIPPA RIGHTS. THIRD, I HAVE SENT a debt validation request, involving my identification and my social security number, on the document certified mail. Asking to breakdown fees including collection cost and medical charges, a COPY of my signature with the provider of the service to release my medical information to I c systems, and to cease any credit reporting until it has been validated. Which has not happened they have recently reported XX/XX/XXXX I believe. They have denied my request to validate my debt and still have yet to delete the debt from my credit report yet again violating FCDPA AND FCRBA. THEY CLAIM THAT ARE UNABLE TO RESPOND TO THE IDENTITY. BUT I HAVE PROVIDED ALL INFORMATION REQUIRED BY LAW. It is obvious that to me that they are not willing to follow the laws stated above. I am requesting assistance and redress.

IC Systems is reporting debts on my credit file that are not mine. Please note that this is not a refusal to pay, but I am asking for validation. Under the FDCPA, I have to right to request validation and I am requesting proof that I am the party you are asking to pay this debt and that there is some contractual obligation that is binging on me to pay this debt. I am NOT requesting verification but a request that validation is made. I ask that your offices provide me with competent evidence that I have any legal obligation to pay you. During this time, if your office continues to report invalidated information to any of the 3 major credit bureaus, this can constitute fraud under both federal and state laws. If you continue to report I will not hessite in bringing legal action against you for violation of the FDCPA and defamation of character. If IC Systems is able to provide proper documentation I will require 60 days to investigate this information and during such time all collection activity must cease. If you fail to respond within the 30 days, all references to this account must be deleted and removed from credit and copy of a deletion letter shall be sent to me immediately.

I have been contacted by IC Systems for XXXX XXXX over an old phone bill that was originally {$810.00}. They kept bugging me in spite of the fact that I told them I can not work due to an injury and so in XX/XX/2022, I agreed to pay {$5.00} per month until my sister could help me pay it off. They sent an agreement to me in the form of a PDF file locked with a password to my email agreeing that, " an I.C. System employee, who documented your offer to settle the balance of {$810.00} owed to XXXX XXXX for the reduced amount of {$120.00}. '' I have paid the $ XXXX each month on time via auto pay from my bank. My sister called today to settle up the remainder of the bill and they decided to argue that I now owe the entire {$810.00} again. This is ridiculous and obviously an attempt to go back on the agreed amount, which I have documented proof of in the PDF file. Today is XX/XX/2022 and I would like this matter to be settled at the agreed amount of {$120.00} as my document states, and for this company to stop trying to swindle me out of more money. Thank you for your time. I will attach the PDF, but you can not open it without the password, which I will be happy to give in private.

I C System is collecting on a XXXX account in the amount of {$1700.00}. I noticed this on my credit report and I hadn't receive a notice. I called the collection agency on XXXX spoke with the first rep XXXX employee # XXXX XXXX was requesting a validation of the debt since it was in collection. He stated that he couldn't provide validation of debt he could only provide a verbal authorization, the second rep I spoke with XXXX employee # XXXX and she pretty much said the same thing. I then sent 3 letters certified. The first on XX/XX/2022 asking for validation of debt and another on XX/XX/2022. The last one was on XX/XX/2022. Attached is the information from the debt collector which is uploaded. The collection agency did not follow the XXXX notice of debt validation on the letter sent from them on XX/XX/2022. Please review. clear for me to understand ; I was also told to print the information off on their website which I provided a copy of. The name they have is XXXX XXXX it supposed to be XXXX XXXX XXXX That was another issue that isn't followed on the cfpb guidelines and there was not an itemization of a letter sent to me from the company per the model that wasn't followed

just started building, and monitoring my credit a few years ago. I noticed that there was a {$340.00} amount listed under derogatory remarks. This was listed as XXXX, for the company XXXX. I tried several times to dispute through XXXX XXXX. Results came back that monies were owed. One of My issues is that I never received a phone call, or bill in the mail about this at all, ever. I have no idea when this debt was from. The other issue is that this was listed on my credit with XXXX, for XXXX, then was dropped off of my credit on XX/XX/20, then this debt was re-added on XX/XX/20 under another debt collection company called IC Systems, for the company XXXX. I believe that this may be something from many years ago, but I don`t really know. Also, how is it possible, or legal for this to be removed from my credit for approximately a month, with one debt collection company, under XXXX, then re-added to my credit by another company, under current business name, XXXX, same debt? I currently have, and have had XXXX services for many years, and never received any notification of any monies owed. I believe this original so called debt of mine is way too old to be on my credit at all.

I have sent three letters to each credit bureau disputing a new collection on my credit report. I have even included a previous settlement letter and they still continue to report the collection from XX/XX/2020, IC systems. This account was settled by the first collection agency who settled the account for less than full balance, credence resource management. The original creditor was XXXX XXXX XXXX. IC system is the second collections agency. I have tried calling XXXX, XXXX, and IC systems ... their lack of communication has kept this inaccurate information on my credit report. I have just disputed a third time on this account through the credit bureau. I have also sent the proper documents of settlement to IC systems showing the account number for XXXX XXXX XXXX as settled. They clearly can not read account numbers! The bureaus have done the same, they have deliberately overlooked the paper I have sent in with each dispute. I also am working with the Michigan attorney general in this matter! Is it illegal to collect on a debt twice, once the first collection agency settled on a specified amount? How did IC systems get this info to try to charge me the difference?

I have been harassed by a collection company about a bill I am not aware of with XXXX. I have never had an account with XXXX. Back in XX/XX/XXXX a fraudulent charge from XXXX XXXX on my bank account was refunded to me by the bank. Then a few month later ( in XXXX ), I started seeing a collection on my credit report. When I contacted the collection agency named XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX ( back in XXXX ), they wouldn't listen to me and just want me to pay. When I contacted XXXX they told me to either file a complaint or deal with the collection agency as they have no knowledge of the charge and didn't have any information about the account. I filed a complaint in XXXX and thought it was resolved. Then in XX/XX/XXXX, it's another collection company that reported the same amount on my credit report. I tried to call that new collection agency again to know more about the collection, but they too didn't want to hear anything but get paid. The reports from both collection agencies have hurt my credit score very bad. I have no knowledge of this account as I never had a XXXX account in my life ; therefore, I never owed them anything. I want this collection out of my credit report.

XXXX XXXX gave my name to a collection agency for an account with which I have no association. They claimed the balance was {$790.00} and due on XX/XX/XXXX. I disputed the account sometime in late XXXX or XXXX ( I am not sure of the dates ). I finally heard from XXXX XXXX in XXXX of XXXX. They claimed that they could not investigate since I did not have an account number. I stated that I did not have an account number because I had no knowledge of the account prior to debt collectors contacting me and that I did not keep the account number. I was contacted again today ( XX/XX/XXXX ) by I.C. System Inc. XXXX XXXX gave them the account number. Obviously, XXXX XXXX had access to it when I spoke with XXXX XXXX on the phone. I believe that they know the account in fraudulent. I further believe that they fabricate these accounts and knowingly have debt collectors attempt to collect fake accounts. I believe this because it would have been trivially easy for them to verify that I did not live in Mississippi where they claim the account was opened during XXXX. I request that the CFPB open a criminal investigation into XXXX XXXX 's conduct and the conduct of I.C. System, Inc.

IC Systems Collections is reporting a collection on my consumer report and violating my federally protected consumer rights. IC Systems Collections has an account that says it is closed as of XX/XX/2021 but has failed to provided me with any " documentary evidence '' to validate their claim pursuant to 15 USC 1692g.

I, XXXX XXXX, the natural person/Consumer have never had no account with IC Systems Collections anytime in 2021 or prior/after an they refuse to show evidence that their claims are true of any alleged debt. their reporting is causing an " adverse action '' pursuant to 15 USC 1681a ( K ) ( 1 ) and damaging me financially and mentally.

On XX/XX/XXXX I received a credit alert that that my score dropped 34 points due to two collection accounts reported by IC Systems. After further research, I concluded IC Systems is reporting a MEDICAL DEBT from XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX that was sold to them on XX/XX/XXXX. IC Systems has violated the 180-day ( six month ) wait period before a medical bill can be reported to credit bureaus. I believe that is a shady fraudulent reporting tactic on behalf of IC Systems to not label it as a medical collection but a collection/charge-off. The medical collection was {$1400.00} in which IC Systems is illegally reporting two separate balancing of {$1400.00} and {$73.00} which show two collection accounts. To make matters worst the country is coming off lockdown for more than 45 days due to COVID-19 and IC Systems reports two collections prematurely that has impacted my credit scores. That makes me ask did the state of Minnesota deem IC Systems " essential workers '' during this global Pandemic. I have yet to receive correspondence by mail from IC Systems pre COVID-19, during or after. IC Systems is a shady collection agency. Account # XXXX {$1400.00} Account # XXXX {$73.00}

Your company has violated my rights on several occasions and have broken several laws in The FCRA sections 609, 611, 604, and several other laws in the FCRA. My consent was violated in this process because i was not contacted by anyone that i owed a debt or an account being placed on my account.

I have been called at least three times a day for over a month. The caller usually hangs up. or transfers me to a machine that says to hang on for a representative who has 'important ' information for me. At this point someone demands that I verify my name. I then ask them who they are and what they want. Twice they 've hung up at that point. Once the caller said " I 've already told you who I am. Answer my question '. at which point I hang up. I have called one of their numbers and told them to stop calling. They continue to call anyway. On XX/XX/2016 I finally received a letter from them. It says I owe {$53.00}. But does not state whom the creditor is ; what it 's for ; or when this debt was supposedly incurred. It continues on to say they are 'scheduled ' to report it to the National Credit Agencys if this is not paid in an unspecified period of time. I have perfect credit. I do not believe this is my debt. In the unlikely chance that it is mine. It is beyond the statute of limitations. Regardless, they are harassing me on a daily basis and I want it stopped. Please note : i have already filed complaints against them with the FCC for harassing phone calls.

A new collections account was placed on my credit this month by I.C. System, INC., which I had no knowledge of this account. The original collections agency account had a comment on my credit report saying it was from XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX and a comment stating that was apart of a natural disaster. I have never been effected by or apart of a natural disaster. I have attempted to dispute this dispute this twice. It remains updated as correct. I contacted the collection account and requested proof of this debt. They say this was a medical bill in my daughters name from 2017. I explained that my daughter had 2 different insurance companies that wouldve taken care of any remaining medical bills. They send me on a goose chase to try to contact the original creditors or the insurance companies. Im attaching photos to show she had a secondary insurance of XXXX that wouldve taken the remainder or any medical bill. XXXX should not be coming to me after 4 years. Ive never received a single bill from them nor any statement for anything. This is fraudulent. I will also show the pictures of them claiming this was something with a natural disaster which is also a fraudulent claim.

I have sent IC Systems and XXXX requests about this collection being reported to see if this is even an actual true debt I owe, neither XXXX nor IC Systems have sent me aythig to substantiate this debt? How can they just make a claim suggesting that I owe a debt but not provide me any proof of this debt? If that is how credit reporting goes, then ANYONE can just send a bill, claim that you owe it and then damage your credit until you pay them? That sounds a lot like fraud to me and the rest of the world? XXXX has removed this account from my report because they were not able to substantiate this account, so I am curious how XXXX is able to? Additionally, XXXX is reporting the Date of Last Activity as of XX/XX/2020, making this account appear like a new account, by TWO YEARS! Isnt it a big violation to re-age an account? Isnt that a suable offense? Especially since I have already shown XXXX their errors and they just updated it to make it a worse impact on my credit? It almost seems intentional. Again, tht seems fraudulent. Can you recommend how I go forward with litigation because this has been injuring my credit and stoppong me from being able to obtain credit.

Hello, I was put as the primary account holder on the bill for our XXXX & XXXX in XXXX of 2020. At the time, it was the height of the pandemic, and I was very low on funds. So were my housemates, who were also contributors towards the XXXX XXXX XXXX bill for our home. As a result, we were unable to pay our XXXX XXXX XXXX bill for the duration of our stay. I did make some payments, however, and did my best to stay on top of it. Sadly the bill continued to increase despite my best efforts, which were limited greatly by the pandemic. I am contacting the bureau with this complaint as more of an appeal to XXXX XXXX XXXX to consider any other possible means of collecting payment for the debt owed, perhaps through a pandemic relief package, or of that nature, that would resolve this debt and remove it from my credit report. The debt is by far the largest I owe, and is preventing me greatly from achieving my financial goals at this time, years later. It would be deeply appreciated if there was a way to resolve this debt with XXXX XXXX XXXX and XXXX and with I C System Collections. I will do whatever is suggested to achieve this end, and any information is appreciated.

Please be further advised, I dispute the validity of the alleged debt in its entirety. Further I request verification of the alleged debt, including, the name and address of the original creditor, along with a copy of a signed contract with the creditor. I disputed this debt with the credit bureaus and it came back verified I have since then contacted the company and haven't received a response. Where are the documents that your company used to verify that you are reporting these accounts accurately? What is the name of the person in your company who verified the accuracy of this account? What documents did they use to verify them? Please provide me with the name of that individual, their company title, and telephone number as well as copies of the documents that they used to verify that this disputed item are being reported accurately.

in XX/XX/XXXX I purchased a puppy and took him to XXXX XXXX XXXX during the visit I was asked if I wanted to purchase puppy insurance which was {$35.00} per month, I was only able to use it once because the vet stopped working for XXXX in XXXX or XX/XX/XXXX at both locations in my area. In XX/XX/XXXX I had to get rid of the puppy due to unforeseen circumstances and was still being charged. I received a call in XXXX from one of the XXXX reps requesting payment where I informed him that I no longer had the puppy, he stated that I was still responsible for the insurance even if I did n't have the dog at that time it was only {$150.00}. XXXX XXXX XXXX and IC systems are reporting on my credit reports that I owe them {$630.00} dollars as of XX/XX/XXXX . How did the payment go from {$150.00} at the time that it was reported that the puppy was no longer in my possession to {$630.00}. If you calculate the amount of payments by 12 months it does n't come out to what they are trying to collect. They should not be allowed to continue to charge people for services they CAN NOT provide, or try to over charge for services that are no longer needed.

In XXXX XXXX and XX/XX/2020 I have submitted disputes with the XXXX credit reporting bureau regarding inaccurate and false information listed on my credit report. One of the accounts that I disputed had late payments that were not late I've requested this information to be updated from both the creditor and the credit reporting bureau. They continually say that they have investigated the item and have opened and closed the case within hours. Typically an investigation takes up to 30 days. They have not investigated or verified any information to be accurate because if they did they would have updated it to show that the payment history is never late. Additionally there is an account that does not belong to me that has appeared on my credit report as opened in XX/XX/2020. I do not have an account with this company I do not have any obligation to this company and this information is being reported falsely. This is not my account and I want it deleted. XXXX refuses to verify the accuracy of this information and have told me that they are under no obligation to prove that this account is indeed mine. They simply say they report whatever the creditor tells them to.

On XXXX XXXX XXXX I filed a complaint against I.C. System, Inc. for making a report on my credit file about an alleged debt without sending me ANYTHING regarding the debt. I made it clear in the report that the alleged debt being on my credit report was not the only thing I was disputing, but the debt in its entirety. In the response to the complaint, I.C. System submit ted a letter they allegedly sent to an address that was never mine. They also claimed to have sent me a text message I never received. On XXXX XXXX XXXX, I received a letter from I.C. System, Inc., dated XX/XX/, saying that they investigated my dispute and were unable to verify the information. They further stated in paragraph 2 of the letter that, " Our attempts to verify this debt as due and owing will continue ... '' They are using the date of the complaint to CFPB as written notice of a request for validation per FDCPA, which was on XXXX XXXX XXXX It is now, XX/XX/. This is more than 30 days. ONLY 30 days are alloted by the FDCPA to verify a debt, or permanently cease ALL collection activities. These people are violating FDCPA by continuing to verify the alleged debt beyond the 30 days.

In XXXX, a storm brought a tree down on my home landline, so I decided to go with XXXX XXXX XXXX for my home phone service. I called to set up the service, but no one came out to connect the landline. The service was never established, but I received a bill in the mail. I called XXXX XXXX XXXX to cancel the service. The representative said that there would be no charge, but every year I receive a collection letter from a different agency attempting to collect money for services that were never established. I have spent several hours on the phone trying to get someone from XXXX XXXX XXXX to address these charges. There is no evidence of phone service at my home, nor any calls or data records for phone service. Every time I dispute the charges, they go to another collection agency. This has been going on for years. Now XXXX XXXX XXXX is telling me that the bill is too old for them to review the details. Account # XXXX. A charge for {$97.00} in now on my credit report. I disputed the charges with IC System and received a letter that stated that it was a legitimate claim, but no one at XXXX XXXX XXXX can provide me with any information regarding these charges.

I made a purchase on XXXX. Before making the purchase I contacted XXXX and I asked clarifying questions about the item I was purchasing. I won the auction on XX/XX/XXXX and I receive the items I was expecting. paying the listed price of {$39.00} dollars. I received the item in a reasonable amount of time. I was contacted by XXXX XXXX on XX/XX/XXXX, telling me that they shipped me the wrong item and that I need to ship it back or they were gong to charge my credit card for {$300.00} dollars. I felt like I received the correct item, and I no longer own the item to ship back. I offered multiple mutually beneficial options for us to resolve this issue. They were not interested in a resolution that was reasonable. They turned an amount of {$250.00} dollars over to IC Systems, a collection agency out of XXXX XXXX, MN. I feel like this is a ridiculous situation and an abuse of the debt collection process. I never agree to pay more than the listed amount in the XXXX auction. What is keeping XXXX from continuing to do this to other people. This feels like a textbook bait and switch some how. I just want to know what my rights and obligations are in this situation.

XX/XX/XXXX I received a collection notice from I.C. Systems, Inc. trying to collect a debt from XXXX. The letter was in my name but sent to an address I have never been to or lived at, then crossed out & forwarded to where I do live. I tried to contact them to resolve this & got no where. I have since received more letters, the latest XX/XX/2016. I called I.C. Systems on XX/XX/XXXX AGAIN, spoke to XXXX. She informed me I needed to call XXXX, which I did. I spoke to XXXX at XXXX, he looked up the account & verified that neither my ID, social security nor my address matched what they had & felt that I.C. Systems is sending this to the incorrect party. He instructed me to call I.C. Systems back & relay this info & tell them they need to stop contacting me since they are not doing their job correctly and if not I should file a complaint against them. Approx. XXXX., I called I.C. Systems back & spoke to XXXX. He was very adamant about not wanting to hear my explanation & said it was out of their hands, that XXXX was handling it. I told him that was false, I just got off the phone with them & would like them to stop sending these & he preceded to hang up on me.

This is a new collection account ( see attached ) that popped up when my mortgage lender was finalizing documents for my home purchase. My father and I share the same name ( Jr/Sr ). Both of us have spent countless hours on the phone with both IC Systems and XXXX XXXX XXXX attempting to get this resolved. Both places just point the finger at the other. This is NOT my debt. It is possibly my father 's, but IC Systems has been unable or unwilling to provide documentation of what this account is linked to. I have disputed this with XXXX and all 3 credit bureaus. I have filed complaints with both XXXX and the Department of Justice. I do not have 30 days to wait for this dispute to get resolved via the normal pathway. In May, I started the process of having a home constructed. That home is now done and it is supposed to close in 10 days. This collection account has TANKED my credit score and I am no longer eligible for the mortgage loan. We are talking tens of THOUSANDS of dollars of loss because of a fraudulent/erroneous account. IC Systems is aware this is not my debt, but refuses to remove the collection or actually attribute it to the correct person.

IC Systems is attempting to collect on a debt not owed by me. They did not validate or verify this debt as belonging to me nor were they given permission by me to access my personal information. When I spoke with them they verified my current address in which I did not give them and stated that it was given to them by XXXX XXXX XXXX. This reporting of this alleged account has caused me a great deal of stress and I want it deleted immediately because not only do I not owe it. This is a CLEAR VIOLATION of the PRIVACY ACT since no written consent was ever granted. 15 USC 1681 ( b ) -No consent was given by me to IC Systems so reporting this alleged account violates my right to privacy, no consent was given by me for IC system to access any of my personal information and 15 USC 1692 ( g ) - IC systems failed to properly validate this alleged debt before placing on my credit 15 USC 1692 ( i ) -IC systems has no jurisdiction to collect on this alleged debt 15 USC 1692 ( k ) -IC Systems has a civil liability that equates to {$1000.00} per violation. If not deleted I will seek damages per violation as it relates to civil liability in addition to lawyer fees.

I submitted this complaint back on XX/XX/2018 complaint # XXXX Which was a follow up complaint. XXXX wrote back that they fixed the debt and released it from collections. They have done this twice. The account was transferred to the FTC and upon calling today is an additional dispute case open XXXX. Back in XX/XX/2018, After a lengthy numerous phone calls, XXXX promised that I would not have to pay a termination fee as we discussed with the representative since I was in a car accident and wanted to cancel service. That termination fee keeps popping up as a debt owed. It is not. They have relieved and resubmitted this debt many times, its frustrating. The last we spoke I cancelled out the account at XXXX. Now I have frivolous charges and predatory collection companies placing derogatory remarks on my credit, a violation of the fair credit reporting act. IC Systems has never had a contract with me and Is reporting the debt as owed, when XXXX relieved it long ago. IC systems is in violation of the fair credit reporting act and also has no fair way of communication when I call in. Predatory company seeking financial gain from innocent consumers.

I.C. SYSTEM has been contacting me against my will with no prior written consent. This is an aggressive and illegal debt collection/ tactics. I do not have contract with ic system or any of its affiliates. I have granted ic system to validate proof I owe any debt which they have not and can not. I have sent all communication to ic system with USPS certified mail and green slip return and they have not refuted or rebutted my affidavit, and cease and desist and billing invoice for the Federal laws they violated against me as a consumer. I have put ic system on notice on XX/XX/2021 and XX/XX/2021 with affidavit, cease and Desist and billing invoice and evidence of violations. I gave ic system 30days upon receipt to rebut the documents. Then I sent a notice to XXXX with 10 extra day to cure the violations. I have been damaged, I feel threatened from this debt collector. I have acted in good faith with ic system notifying that I will pay any debt that can be validated but ic system has continually failed to validate or show proof of any debt or contract. I will continue to enforce my federally protected rights until I get what I want from this situation.

I established a payment arrangement in XX/XX/XXXX for bi-weekly payments of XXXX. I NEVER missed a payment or was late. I received a phone call last month ( XX/XX/XXXX ) from I.C. System, Inc. ( XXXX. XXXX XXXX, XXXX XXXX, MN XXXX ) stating that my payment arrangement had ended and my final payment of {$27.00} was taken out on XX/XX/XXXX and I had a remaining balance of {$150.00}. Not sure who authorized the increased payment either because I did not. -- - I asked the guy to be put back on the payment arrangement I had in place because my financial situation had not changed. He told me that my ONLY option was breaking it up into two equal payments ( which would be 3x my normal payment amount ). I told him that was not feasible - he then THREATENED to put this on my credit if I did not take the offer he gave me. I then informed him that it is illegal to threaten someones credit and that I could not increase my payment. I then went on their website and made a payment on XX/XX/XXXX for XXXX. Today I received a call from I.C. stating that this had now been reported on my credit ( after I was threatened ) - even though I still have not missed a payment.

In late XX/XX/XXXX i signed up for XXXX 's offer of one year free service. Prior to the end of that year of free service ( XX/XX/XXXX ), i ended my service with XXXX and switched to a different carrier. However, XXXX erroneously charged me for one month of service in the amount of {$120.00}. In XX/XX/XXXX i disputed this charge by sending XXXX a letter to their disputes department using the address published on XXXX 's website. XXXX failed to respond. According to credit law, they had 30 days to respond to my dispute but failed to do so. They have now hired a collection agency called IC System to collect this fraudulent debt. I consider these tactics harassment. I have attached the following documents in a ZiP file : ( 1 ) XXXX 's 1 year free service offer ( Free offer details ) ( 2 ) My letter of dispute ( Dispute letter ), ( 3 ) Confirmation that i closed my XXXX service account ( Account closed ), ( 4 ) XXXX 's email invoice from XX/XX/XXXX showing XXXX disregarded my letter ( XXXX - Your XXXX bill is now available online_illegal harassment ), ( 5 ) email from collection agency IC System ( XXXX - Important Personal Message from I.C.

Was approached by a XXXX salesman at XXXX, Told himI just purchased a home and didnt know when I would even be moving into home. He said that wasnt a problem, I can set up your account and they will send you the equipment and you wont be billed untill you have equipment set up and you make a call to activate the equipment, They mailed the equipment to my address and also billed me immediately. I called and cancelled the account and turned in the equipment, equipment was never opened, Also have the receipt for equipment returned. I asked store clerk if I owed anything because I had the XXXX bill with me and he said that bill was just a pending bill if I didnt return the equipment. Told me there was no charge. I would have paid this bill immediately if I owed it. My XXXX was XXXX when this collection started and I have always paid my bills to get my score this high. Because of this debt collection that I do not owe, my XXXX score has dropped to XXXX, which I am very mad about. This is either XXXX policy to have salesmen lie to get accounts or salesman lied to get account. They started this debt collection without ever asking my side of the story.

Hello CFPB employee, On XXXX XXXX, 2016 I sent a request for validation to XXXX. System regarding a collection account that they are reporting on my credit reports. Since sending the validation request I have not received a response or the requested information in my request to I.C.System XXXX XXXX, 2016 I sent a XXXX request for validation and again time went on and still nothing received to me from I.C. System. I.C. System has violated my consumer rights under the FDCPA by not supplying me with the proof needed to validate the debt they claim I owe. I 'am coming to you the CFPB for assistance for I.C.System to follow the laws they 're governed by. I 'm requesting that I.C.System to remove the collection debt ( I.C.System, Account # XXXX ) Balance {$310.00} with all credit bureaus, due to no response from the collection agency. Several attempts on my end as the consumer to resolve this matter with I.C.System has been made. ( Resolutions request ) I think a fair resolution to my issue would be for I.C.System to remove the debt from my credit reports as they were not able to validate the debt they claim I owe. Thank you CFPB In advance XXXX XXXX

XXXX charged me for streaming on a device they said would be comparable to Clears device for internet. I called sprint to continue service for internet when XXXX went out of business. The person said they would send me a device comparable to the device that XXXX had. I was also referred to XXXX after XXXX went out of business. They told me that this device would be the same as XXXX device. They even told me they would charge then same as XXXX. After a few months of being charged {$60.00} a month the device I was using said I was streaming or what ever and said I used the device for something else and changed me XXXX one month. I told them on the date I got the bill I had not used it any other way than as internet and it was supposed to be used for said amount of XXXX. I told them I could not pay more than {$60.00} and they said I had ran up the bill for that month of {$300.00}. They said they would not change and I stopped using the device. I switch to XXXX because a XXXX employee said the device was not the same as XXXX. They in turn have me as owing them as ridiculous amount of {$300.00}.

Shortly after my XXXX were born in XX/XX/2018, I took them to XXXX XXXX for a pediatrician appointment. I had health insurance at the time, but when XXXX XXXX submitted the claim for payment, the claim was rejected as the insurer indicated I was not covered. I cleared up this issue with the insurer ( I was covered ) and the health insurer requested that XXXX XXXX resubmit the claim. XXXX XXXX refused to re-submit the claim. I resubmitted the claim myself but the insurer insisted that the provider resubmit it. XXXX XXXX again refused. The claim was apparently sold the receivable to IC Systems, who reported 2 claims for {$450.00} to XXXX ( there was only ever 1 claim ). I disputed these claims with XXXX and they were removed. Once removed from XXXX, IC Systems then reported 2 claims for {$450.00} ( again only ever 1 claim ) to XXXX. I disputed the claims with XXXX XXXX has apparently rejected the dispute. However, they did not issue a rejection notice - only a notice that they have updated the claim with new information. It appears they only updated the expiration date of the negative report, but it is unclear as there was no explanation provided

I was contacted by I.C. System, INC. about a medical debt from XXXX XXXX. On XX/XX/XXXX I went on their website and payed the entire balance listed, Which was {$600.00} by ECheck. Listed at the bottom of the confirmation page was the following statement " Once your payment is successfully processed, your account owing to XXXX XXXX will be listed in our records with {$0.00} balance ''. That amount was taken from my bank account on XX/XX/XXXX. This debt was paid off in full yet I am still receiving settlement letters. I received a settlement letter on XX/XX/XXXX and again on XX/XX/XXXX. Both letters list the balance as {$2600.00}. I am not sure why I am continuously being sent letters that claim I owe a large amount of money even though I have paid this debt. I have attached : the confirmation page on the I.C. System website that shows my payment in full, my bank statement showing I.C. System withdrawing {$600.00}, and both settlement letters I received in the mail. I assumed that the settlement letter I received four months later was a mistake so I did nothing about it. But now having received another one, I know that they are trying to scam me.

All 3 credit bureaus have a debt listed under my name for a cable bill from XXXX services for a house in North Carolina. I live in Maryland, and I have never lived in North Carolina. Also, the name on the bill is not my correct name. This bill was sold to a collection agency called I C SYSTEM for the amount of {$530.00}. Their contact info is : IC System Correspondence XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX MN XXXX XXXX. I have called them and disputed the claim and they refused to remove the debt from my credit report. I have disputed this information with XXXX and the debit was not removed from any of the XXXX credit reports other than notes saying : Account information disputed by consumer, meets FCRA requirements. How do you dispute a bill that does not belong to you when the period in time the bill was accrued you did not live in the state in which it was accrued, never lived their. Lived in MD for over 25 years. Never owned property outside of Maryland. Also XXXX does not operate in Maryland ... Seeking help taking this false debt collection reporting off from my XXXX credit reports. This is gross abuse of my civil rights

This debt collector engaged in abusive, deceptive, and unfair practices of the FDCPA which it prohibits. They furnished this account that we didn't agree upon, and I didn't sign an agreement on. A legal contract is signed by two parties, and I did not participate in any of it. More so they didn't follow the proper 5 step validation procedure which make these unfair practices. The balance on my credit report is not the same balance I have with the original creditor. Furthermore, I was never sent correspondence notifying me that this account was sold to IC SYSTEM INC which is another violation. I received nothing in the mail leading up to this collection being reported. This account was added in XX/XX/2023. I am requesting a copy of the correspondence mailed to me during that time informing me that I had a debt with your company. If you can not provide this, then that is another violation. According to the FDCPA Im entitled to XXXX dollars per violation. I demand this company to delete this account from all XXXX credit reporting agencies and compensate me for the violations or I will have no choice but to forward this to my litigation attorney.

A collection agency named IC Systems is reporting that I have a {$570.00} debt with XXXX on my credit report. When I found out about this, I contacted XXXX immediately. The informed me that a large portion of that debt was for unreturned equipment. I made arrangements to return the equipment, and did so. Once the return of the equipment was registered, the rep at XXXX told me that I still had a remaining balance of {$190.00}. I tried to pay XXXX directly, but they told me that I had to resolve the remaining {$190.00} with IC Systems. I have been in contact with IC Systems directly, but they are still trying to collect the full {$570.00} balance. I have explained to them about the revised balance, due to the return of the equipment, but they refuse to acknowledge the adjusted amount. I've even given IC Systems contact information to the people I dealt with at XXXX, but they refuse to follow-up and confirm the changes. I have no problem accepting responsibility for any balance I have, but I refuse to pay a collection agency {$300.00} more than I actually owe, and its illegal for IC Systems to continue to ask for more than the actual debt is.

Hi, I am currently working on my credit report. At first I noticed system 's collecting for XXXX XXXX XXXX on my report. I was not aware of any such account. I asked for more information and disputed the account. It was not investigated. Decided to research the only account I've had with XXXX XXXX XXXX and soon realized it was an old XXXX from XX/XX/XXXX. That account was closed was to be cutoffXX/XX/XXXX when I purchased my new home. We bought a XXXX. They were suppose to send boxes for Equipment before we moved but NEVER did. I spoke to them several times. I recall this very well. We brought equipment to our new home, XXXX was sending boxes AGAIN. This time, they were sent to old Addr. I wasted more time tracking boxes only to find them wet outside old rental property. I asked them where to drop equipment? I was instructed to drop off in XXXX, Tx, That is what did. They apologized, said : " I would be issued credits. '' PAID {$95.00} and closed this account. I DO NOT OWE this debt and it is marked " D '' on my credit report. I am a single mom working very hard to be a good example. Please look into this. Thank you for all your time. SB

I was contacted in XX/XX/XXXX by mail from I.C Systems Inc. regarding an outstanding balance of {$200.00} dollars. I called them to get more information about this debt, but all they would share was the account debtor was XXXX XXXX with a balance of {$200.00}. I immediately disputed this debt and requested a itemized statement from them detailing why this amount was owed. I also informed that I requested XXXX XXXX to have this account to be closed almost 5 years ago, and up until now, this account was closed by me in good standing. The person I spoke with was not able to access this information, but ensured me that she would send it as soon as possible. I Never heard back from them, until I received and alert from XXXX XXXX that this account was reported on my credit report as of XX/XX/XXXX. This company has no records of why this amount exists and failed to follow up with the information I requested to establish why this account even exist after 5 years of service. Then, recklessly reported this to the credit bureau in XX/XX/XXXX, as a result, damaging my credit score, as if this account new as if I failed to currently keep my commitment.

I noticed a new entry of a Collection account on my Credit Report ( CR ) via the XXXX online platform on XX/XX/XXXX. The new entry was from I.C. System Inc. collection amount = {$900.00}. I contacted this company on 2 occasions, however, they seem unwilling to delete it from my Credit Report. This is the problem, it appears that someone used my personal name and ss number to acquire an account with XXXX in the XXXX, Texas area. They apparently ran up a bill for {$900.00}. and then disappeared. Interestingly, I have an account with XXXX since they were XXXX XXXX back in XXXX. As of today, my account with Spectrum is in good standing. Please note, The erroneous address is XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, TX. XXXX Please note, I have never lived there or have ever visited XXXX, Texas in all of my life. Therefore, it is plain as the nose on a face that this I. C. SYSTEM INC claim is fraudulent. They claim to have my correct name and social security number, but the account is fraudulent as I do not owe the original creditor, XXXX XXXX any monies. Indeed, I have maintained a XXXX XXXX with XXXX for the past 15 years, and said account is in good standing.

On XX/XX/2019, I was sent to collection by XXXX for a debt of {$59.00} to IC Systems for an outstanding phone bill charge. I told them I paid my last phone bill on XX/XX/XXXX to XXXX after leaving the company and I returned my lease device XX/XX/XXXX via XXXX so I didnt owe anything. They placed me on hold and called XXXX directly. They came back and told me it was for a early termination fee, but I told the female rep that my contract doesnt say I would owe a early termination fee, I would just have to pay the phone off in full which I did plus my last bill which was due XX/XX/XXXX. She placed me on another hold and told me it wasnt a late fee but another phone bill. She told me we could settle for {$47.00} that day, so I paid the amount. I kept reiterating to the female rep that the charges were false, but I paid because I didnt want the false reporting to go to all 3 credit bureaus. XXXX recently reimbursed me {$160.00} for the trouble they caused me. I spoke with XXXX XXXX from the Executive and Regulatory Services department of XXXX who granted the reimbursement after receiving my complaint from my states attorney generals office.

On Tuesday, XX/XX/2020, I received a phone call from XXXX at XXXX. Caller identified herself as being from a Collections Agency and that the call would be recorded. She asked for my husband or myself by name. I stated my name and asked where she was calling from. She said she was calling from IC Systems regarding a debt from XXXX XXXX. She told me that I had a past due balance from a previous address from 4.5 years ago. I was skeptical, as all services were paid and terminated when we moved to our current address. She was willing to send a letter in the mail if I updated my mailing address. I gave her current address and then asked for more detail about the past due bill. She gave me an amount due and an account number to reference. I told her I would need to contact the utility company at a later time. At XXXX on the same day, I called XXXX XXXX to speak with someone about the past due amount. The agent searched for my name, my husband 's name, the previous address, both of our phone numbers, and by Social Security number and was unable to find any amount that was sent to collections. She suggested that the call was a possible scam.

An individual with the same name " XXXX XXXX '' who lives in Florida opened an account with XXXX XXXX in Florida. That account was not paid and went to a collection agency, I.C. System, Inc., who then filed a collection for that account under my name and social security number even though it did not belong to me. It is now showing on my credit report. When I called I.C. System to complain and have this removed they could not find an account with my social security number or address but they refused to remove the collection from my credit even though they had no proof it belonged to me. They then had me call XXXX XXXX and XXXX could not find an account under my social security number or address, either. Even though they had no proof whatsoever that I was the XXXX XXXX on the account they refused to remove the account from my credit report and informed me that I had to file a police report concerning the incident. I told them that it was not identity theft but that hey just had another client with the same name and they needed to fix their records and they did not care. I have filed the police report and am now filing with the CFPB.

I have contacted IC Systems Several times regarding a negative item on my credit. I have asked for proper validation if debt. Im aware they purchased the debt from XXXX. However, this is a false debt from XX/XX/XXXX-XX/XX/XXXX. I returned all equipment to XXXX and owe nothing. I have since been a member of XXXX which was done through a credit check. I owe nothing to XXXX and {$3000.00} would be extremely excessive even if i owed a bill for phones. Since they have not supplied me with proper verification of debt in a timely matter they need to remove negative information until they supply me with validation. How long has IC systems had this debt? When did they purchase the debt? I have received nothing from ic systems. Remove debt!! This is not my debt. If they have my signature on this debt I request proof. I have been a victim of Identity theft and my information was obtained through several different entities including the government hack in which my information was leaked and I was contacted by the office of personal management and given Free identity protection for years. I was also a victim from XXXX Glitch and XXXX breach.

I C System has a collection on my credit from XXXX XXXX ( original creditor ) in the amount of {$730.00}. This account was confirmed to me on XX/XX/XXXX by XXXX XXXX as a closed account as of XX/XX/XXXX. IC Systems is reporting the account to all credit bureaus as open with a delinquent date of XX/XX/XXXX which I C System stated to me was the date they were hired by XXXX XXXX. I have disputed the status and delinquency date on credit Karma with I C systems 4 times and they have repeatly informed both the status and delinquency date they have reported is correct. I reached out to I C Systems directly on XX/XX/XXXX and informed them of the false information they keep reporting on my credit reports. I also informed them according to FCRA the date of delinquency has to be the date given to them by the original creditor. They informed me that the Credit Bureaus are not updating my information. That they are reporting the account closed and the delinquency date as XX/XX/XXXX which I know is lies. I C Systems refuses to report my information accurately to the credit bureaus and refuse to update their reporting of my credit information.

On XX/XX/XXXX I reached out to the company I C Systems to Request a cease and desist On attempted collection of debt from XXXX because it is past statute of limitations for the state of Florida. Florida Statues State that the statue of limitation on store debt is 4 years - FL STATUTE 95.11.3 ( k ). Torte law calculates that the limitation is computed from the last date of activity on the account not the collections date. The account was from XXXX last date of activity was XXXX. After expressing my request for a cease and desist based on law I was placed on hold for more than 15 minutes. Eventually they returned and told me that they would not stop attempted collection and that if I wanted to put the debt on a payment plan I could. I informed them that they are violating Florida law by attempting to do that and was told that they do not practice law and that if they were violating the Florida statutes they wouldnt be trying to collect the debt. I have attempted to resolve this issue with XXXX directly however they have been acquired by XXXX and I was informed that I therefore have to dispute the debt with the collections company.

IC Systems changed the original date of delinquency on an account that has been removed from my credit report for a long time. They showed a very short time frame and moved the date to XX/XX/XXXX as the origin and XX/XX/XXXX as the close. Due to the short period, I strongly feel that this was done knowingly and purposefully. I have never been contacted by this company, and the only reason I was aware that they had performed the illegal action was due to an alert to a change on my credit report. I have started the dispute process with XXXX, but do not feel as a consumer that I should have to wait 30 days for a response to this illegal action by the collection company. This illegal action has made a considerable reduction to my credit score and limited my ability to use what I have worked for. As re-aging is clearly stated as an illegal practice, I would like for further action to be taken against IC Systems for their purposeful deceptive tactics. I will file this complaint as well as pursue other avenues to correct my report and ensure that IC Systems idoes not attempt to use fraudulent tactics in my reports in the future.

I called XXXX to set up a payment plan after finding out that XXXX would only be giving me a credit with their account and not sending me the money to pay off my XXXX account ( I was told the promotion I was supposed to get with XXXX was not authorized and that's why it took a few months ). XXXX agreed and said as long as I paid it, I wouldn't be sent to collections. I'm a XXXX veteran and single mom and had just moved so I didn't have much money. I paid XXXX in XXXX, {$300.00} XX/XX/XXXX and XXXX XX/XX/XXXX. They then reported me to the credit bureaus and my credit dropped over 80 points. I tried calling them repeatedly and they just kept saying they couldn't help me and I needed to call IC systems ( the collection agency ). I then filed disputes with the credit bureaus and filed with the XXXX. Yesterday I received an email from XXXX with executive corporate offices of XXXX. He said my debt was valid and that I needed to call IC systems. I responded to him with proof and to the case worker with XXXX because she also sent me his response. This is illegal, and inaccurate. I do not owe them anything and this has been paid.

A collection item keeps appearing on my credit report. I dispute and receive a letter that it will be removed then it is placed back on my report by a different company and re-aged as a new debt. I have contacted the collection agency and was told that the account will never go away and that every time I dispute it with them, they will re-age the account. The amount is for {$450.00}. The account is showing as a new debt on my credit report as of XX/XX/XXXX. Per the collection agency, the debt is from XXXX. This is a FCRA violation : Section 623 ( 5 ) ( A ) says : In general. A person who furnishes information to a consumer reporting agency regarding a delinquent account being placed for collection, charged to profit or loss, or subjected to any similar action shall, not later than 90 days after furnishing the information, notify the agency of the date of delinquency on the account, which shall be the month and year of the commencement of the delinquency on the account that immediately preceded the action. An account from XXXX did not just become delinquent in XXXX after being passed from several collection agencies.

I do not know who they are, and I Have never had XXXX as a phone carrier. I have had the same cell phone company, which is XXXX wireless for over 10 years. I have also had the same cell phone number for over 10 years. There is no way I owe XXXX any money. I sent a letter to IC Systems asking them to provide me with validation of the debt they are claiming I owe. I received a letter from XXXX XXXX stating they have no record of my account and I need to send them more information. I will not send them any of my personal information. They initially claimed that i owe XXXX. This is a scamming company trying to steal my information, and I immediately request for them not to report anything negative to the credit bureaus. They have not provided me with validation, and they are attempting defamation of my credit character. This company needs to completely remove me from their system. I dont owe them or XXXX any money!! I want to cease collection on this false debt immediately!

Got letter today from IC System stating I owe XXXX XXXX {$700.00}. I have never had an account with them. If you go back through your files you will see I have filed a complaint about this going back to XXXX. This is the 3rd or 4th debt collection agency that this has been shuffled off to. Each time dispute this I win. I have spoken to XXXX about this in XX/XX/XXXX speaking to them to send me a copy of a signed contract and copy of my ID proving this. I have the email if you need them proving I spoke to XXXX XXXX. I have proof I lived at XXXX XXXX. XXXX and you can find me under the bankruptcy website showing you the XXXX XXXX address I lived at and there is a news article in the XXXX XXXX XXXX where my apartment was burned. I made the front page. I had an XXXX satellite at that time of the fire. If this was my debt all I would have had to do is file it under my bankruptcy I filed after my apartment building burned. XXXX never bothered me again until today well the new collection company this debt has been sold to rather. So I am reaching out to your agency again. This is not my debt, please help me out again. Thanks

Having some issues with XXXX retail store. Rep/store manager was named XXXX at XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX XXXX XXXX TX XXXX XXXX United States XX/XX/2021 I went to check coverage for my home to switch from XXXX. The store manager XXXX promised they would have better service and that I could bring my own device and get a {$450.00} credit with no contract but had to pay a {$120.00} connection fee. Also confirmed that I could cancel once the credit was used which she confirmed. Around XXXX I did just that but a month later I got a bill from XXXX for {$550.00}. Contested and XXXX pointed me back to the store, store pointed me back to XXXX and now they've sent me to a collection agency. Confirmed the agency wouldn't ding my credit store and they said they wouldn't as " XXXX run their own credit score '' and surprise surprise they dinged it last month. Talked to the regional manager for Texas XXXX ( XXXX? ) today and he's now trying to say they aren't at fault. Told him I need a letter head stating what his store manager sold/told me to work through it with the collection agency. Also posting this on XXXX reviews

Att has been trying to exhort me for money I dont owe them. I have told them that, and provided them proof that if and when an account was opened up there I wasnt living in the property, however my x-wife resided at the property after we split, and then she rented it, before we got divorced and sold it, they have been trying to collect {$390.00} or sometimes XXXX, and other amounts, from me and I called them about this and they said they would get it corrected and removed, but the harassment and assault to my credit by four different collections agencies since XXXX has not ceased and I'm tired each time I have had to spend countless hours and time and resources to have it removed from my credit report and it needs to stop. XXXX XXXX XXXX. XXXX XXXX XXXX, some other company, and now XX/XX/XXXX, I.C. System Inc. This has got to cease, this is illegal, for any all and all companies to just throw a charge on your report as many times as they want without honorable merits, I asked for my id or signatures of the contract, they never provided it, nothing but statements generated that I didnt own or make a bill for in my name.

I canceled my internet service with XXXX on XX/XX/XXXX. I returned the equipment on XX/XX/XXXX in its XXXX office with a Receipt No. of XXXX. XXXX sent me to a collection agency, I.C.System, Inc. ( ICS ) under Reference No. XXXX, two years later. I never received any correspondence from XXXX prior to this collection letter about the fact that XXXX has not received the equipment from me. I called ICS today, XX/XX/XXXX, and told the representative I do not owe XXXX anything because I returned the equipment. She said that if I do not pay, that come XX/XX/XXXX, I will see a negative report on my credit history. She did not ask about any other information, or if I have any proof of returning the equipment. I then called XXXX and spoke to XXXX, XXXX ( XXXX 's supervisor ), and XXXX ( ID XXXX, XXXX 's supervisor ). All three of them said, the best they can do is send an email to see if they can find the equipment. They can not really contact the collection agency or stop the negative report on my credit history. I can just dispute the negative credit report from the three credit agencies once it shows on my history.

I had service with XXXX XXXX. XXXX of XXXX I closed my account with XXXX XXXX returned my devices. I called XXXX of XXXX to make sure the equipment was received and what balances I had left. I was informed that the equipment was received and I had a XXXX balance. I HEARD NOTHING FROM THIS COMPANY OR RECEIVED ANY BILLS AFTER THAT. It wasnt until XXXX of XXXX that I received a bill from a collection agency stating that I owed XXXX XXXX almost {$500.00} dollars. I explained to the collection agency I was unaware of any bill owed and wasnt informed by direct tv of any bill. They suggested that I call XXXX XXXX directly. I called XXXX XXXX and nothing was done I explained to them what happened and how I never received any bills from them regarding a balance and was told by the lady that I spoke too that there wasnt anything they could do because it was in collections. They couldnt even tell me if any bills or notices was sent out to me. I have lived in the same house with the same address for 5 years so I didnt miss any bills or notices. XXXX XXXX DIDNT EVEN GIVE ME AN ITEMIZED BILL ON WHY I OWE ALMOST {$500.00} DOLLARS.

Hello there is a collection on my credit report that I have disputed several times and it will get deleted and then another collection agency would get it its not my account it is with XXXX XXXX I have XXXX XXXX services now. I called them on several occasions to get this account off they have no way of verifying this account is what I was told by XXXX XXXX. They dont even know where the account came from but its a different account then what I have now. They told me to dispute it with the collection agency because once its left their office I have to go through the collection agency so they can verify it with XXXX XXXX. I was told they have never tried to verify that account with them but they updated my credit report as verified. Called the collection agency several times to dispute this account and they told me they verified my social security number and my address. I asked them for a hard copy or a contract that I signed and they refused to provide it. They said they dont need to have it they verified it was my account by my address and social security number. So they refused to remove it and its not my account.

XXXX XXXX IC System Inc -- I cancelled an account with XXXX and returned their equipment. They continued to bill me even though I did not receive service. I had been on autopay my entire time using their service. So had never been late with a payment. When I called them to notify them they had billed me for service I did not receive and equipment I had returned, they assured me it would be taken care of and removed from my account. XXXX XXXX confirmed they were removing the charges. Not only did they not remove the amount they said I owed, they sent it to collections. It has killed my excellent credit when I'm trying to get a mortgage. I have written to them every year and written to the credit reporting agencies. I have excellent credit, have never been late with a bill or payment and this has destroyed me. Do not believe anything the XXXX representatives tell you on the phone. They will tell you whatever you want to hear so you dont cancel your service. But they will not fix it or back you up when they make an error. My nearly perfect credit score of XXXX did not include any negative items, and 0 late payments.

XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX made a billing error on my account. I've contacted them numerous times to fix this account, to no avail. In total, I've spent 10+ hours on the phone with company to get the billing error corrected and each time promised that it would be resolved. The alleged amount of {$51.00} ( which is an error ), is now on my credit report. The company that is reporting the amount on my credit report is IC system. I have disputed the amount electronically with IC System in XXXX and XXXX of XXXX via XXXX XXXX dispute process and the amount is still showing on my credit report. As a result, my credit score has now dropped by XXXX points which is impacting my access to credit and how I conduct business and my personal affairs. In addition, this has caused undue unnecessary physical and emotional distress. The dates that I contacted XXXX XXXX XXXX and was promised resolution of this account are as follows : XX/XX/XXXX ; XX/XX/XXXX ; XX/XX/XXXX ; and XX/XX/XXXX. I was also sent an email on XX/XX/XXXX by XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX escalations acknowledging that the billing amount submitted to collections was incorrect.

We switched from XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX to XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX internet a little over a year ago. We did that based on the promise that all of our past debts would be written off and we wo n't have to worry about it. We believed them until I started getting calls from some agency claiming that the debt was still owed to XXXX XXXX XXXX. We believed them when they said we owed nothing, but we took care of it with XXXX XXXX XXXX and it should 've been paid off. Yet we still get calls about every XXXX months from the same agency. Never a written item, just a call, claiming the same thing. I tell them it 's taken care of and to get the number off, but they keep the same pattern up. I do n't know who the company is, just that they keep calling and telling me the same thing over and over and over again. I have had enough! I want them to stop harassing us about this debt since, as I know a little about collection laws, they have invalidated it by not sending us anything in the mail ... .ever. It needs to be received within XXXX business days, and we never got a single mailed item from these people. We want them stopped.

I had service with att for home and wireless service on combine billing, my home bill part was approx XXXX per month and my wireless varied between XXXX and XXXX a month. After a while I had the home phone service canceled because I was not using and was not under contract for that. I kept wireless until XXXX of 2013 and then I canceled service and went with another provider. I received a final bill from att for XXXX which I paid in full. A few months later I check my credit report and there 's a collection on there for XXXX. I called att and they could not find where I owed them anything or where it was in collections. So I disputed with credit bureaus and they removed it. The collection agency then sold the collection agency to another agency and it showed back up on my credit report, so I dispute again and it 's removed again. So now it 's sold again and some company if systems has it on my credit report again and the bureau will not take it off this time. I have asked for disclosure of this collection and why I owe it and have not received it. I have no idea of how I owe this or where the amount came from.

On XX/XX/XXXX, I contacted XXXX XXXX via support chat to ensure that my account had been fully closed out and that there were no payments owed. I was told that I needed to return the " XXXX XXXX '' and that they would send out a return kit for it, and that would satisfy everything owed to XXXX. When the kit came, I put the XXXX device in the bag, and took photos of it. I dropped it off at XXXX and got a receipt for it. On XX/XX/XXXX I got a collection notice from I.C. System claiming that I owed {$160.00} to XXXX as the " original and current creditor '', without any contact from XXXX except the aforementioned support chat. On XX/XX/XXXX, I sent a certified letter to I.C. System disputing the claim and requesting a full explanation of the alleged claim. I received NO RESPONSE from I.C. System. On XX/XX/XXXX, I received notice from Experian that my credit report had a new entry, and I found that I.C. System had improperly placed a derogatory report on my account. I.C.

I am submitting a complaint, firstly here, then to the BBB, after this I will be seeking more aggressive routes as this is criminal in my mind, in order to hopefully get some kind of relief from the damage this company I C SYSTEMS has done to my credit. I have asked many times to verify the debt of {$1100.00} as well as show the contract that I have signed with them and not any other company. Without any proof sent to me. They have changed the dates on the debt. They have repeatedly reported it as new debt in my reports and I have watched my score drop at least 11 points each time that have done this. Most recently they didn't even wait a week before slamming me with this tactic twice. Which I will send proof of with this complaint. This damage will take me years to fix. I believe this is an illegal practice and not the least of which immoral. I don't know this debt. I will NOT pay this debt. I will not give any money to anyone that is trying to strong arm me. I have lost way more in time spent trying to repair my credit and interest rates due directly to their actions. This has been going on far to long.

My next step was to contact XXXX directly and ask ahout the details of the charge. They told me the charge could not be found in my account and that i should ignore the email. I kept getting email and phone calls so I contacted XXXX through their chat services on the XXXX app and they told me once again that the charge could not be found on my account and that it would be a potential scam, so I should ignore it. On XX/XX/2023 a letter was sent to my address about a debt collection with IC System XXXX XXXX stating that XXXX sent them my overdue balance to them for collection. At this time I contacted XXXX again and they said the charge is not found in my account. Finally, they reassured me that my account is in good standing so this charge does not belong to me. I do have messages from the chat and an email I received as confirmation for proof that the charge is not on my account as well, if they are needed.

After reviewing my credit profile on XX/XX/2021 I identified a discrepancy with account listed under IC System Inc. and requested a validation on XX/XX/2021 as this was an account that I did not recognize. I reviewed my credit report again on XX/XX/2021 and the account continues to reflect on my credit report and I have not received any correspondence from creditor to validate this account as correctly belonging to me nor has any update been made on my credit report to reflect that the accounts are disputed and therefore a 2nd validation letter was sent out on this day. As of XX/XX/2021 I have not received the requested validation in a timely manner according to the Fair Debt Collections Practices Act and I do not believe the account belongs to me nor do I believe that the creditor has authorization to access the account nor authorization to attempt to collect on the account and the account continues to negatively affect me. Please strike and remove this account from all 3 credit bureaus until adequate validation has been received proving that the account belongs to me and all information is correct.

I asked if i paid a sif would it be removed from my credit. On a recorded line XXXX proceeded to tell me that if i paid the settlement of XXXX for the Att u-verse account ) that the account would be removed completely from the bureaus within 30 to 45 days. I paid the sif amount in full on XXXX XXXX XXXX. I requested a removal letter in writing to prove this will be removed. XXXX XXXX advised that a removal letter will be sent out 30 days from the last pay date upon consumer 's request. When receiving the letter, it was not a removal letter and then when calling IC SYSTEMS back a rep proclaimed to tell me that it wouldn't be removed bc its not paid in full, which is misleading info to properly attempt to collect a debt knowing I called to pif specially to get it removed. I asked to be connected to a supervisor, when the supervisor took my call she ref to help and sent me to consumer affairs which nothing has been resolved properly.

I was a victim of identity theft and 10 different accounts were opened in name with XXXX 2 years ago. I contacted XXXX back then and they acknowledged this and wrote me a letter promising they will take care of this and remove all negative reports. However, I keep on getting various calls from different credit agencies for the same accounts stating that I owe. I have contacted XXXX and they state that the accounts it is not in their system at and they do not see where it was in the first place. Despite the fact that they have written me a letter with their company letterhead apologising and i have called the credit bureau to remove it they state that XXXX has to contact them with the letter. I have contacted XXXX about this sent them faxes and email they are stating that it takes 10 days to read my letter. Very unprofessional and lousy attitude towards solving my problem having sold the account. They are not in a hurry to remove it and even though they promised to 2 years ago. Everytime the collection comes up in my account it dings my account 30 points. Please save me from these draconian monsters.

I mailed my cease and desist letter to the collection agency who is responsible for this debt. I was very clear that they should cease and desist all communications with me in regards to this debt. My USPS certified tracking number is XXXX in which was delivered and signed for on XX/XX/2023. But even though they received my letter and signed for it. They still have been trying to contact me through my consumer report as well as continuing to send me letters in the mail about this debt. Under section 805 ( c ) of the FDCPA states that if a consumer notifies a debt collector in writing that they wish the debt collector to cease further communication with them. The debt collector must not communicate further with that consumer. So why are they still trying to communicate to me through my consumer reports about this debt that I already written to them to cease all collection and communication with me. As well as section 807 ( 4 ) which prohibits a debt collector from continuing to communicate with the consumer, except to notify the consumer that the debt collector further attempts are being terminated.

XXXX put a collection on my credit report after three years of it not being on there. ICSystems is the credit agency with the debt currently, that I paid off. ICSystems " said '' they sent me a letter before it went to my credit report. I've had the same address for the last 4 years and no letter was received. IF I would have received it, I would have taken care of the debt " before '' it hit my credit report if it were even valid. Maybe they should have sent it certified or something before they ruin someone's report after they " say '' they sent a letter, not knowing if it will get to me on time, if at all. I also talked to the CSR on the phone when making a payment and I want this line to come completely OFF my credit report, not just updated as paid. I've filed an FCC complaint against XXXX for shady business practices,, as they " recalled '' this debt THREE years ago after I tried to pay it off, then yesterday I wake up and the debt is on there from ICSystems. I never received ANY notice from ICSystems and I don't believe they even sent a letter to my address that I never received.

A debt collector IC Systems of Kansas went through a law office garnished my wages for XXXX. The law office reiieved check on XXXX from USD XXXX ( my employer ) and sent the check onto IC Systems of Kansas who received it on XX/XX/XXXX. I was told on XX/XX/XXXX that the funds had to be held by IC Systems of Kansas for XXXX weeks to confirm debt was paid which 2 weeks from the XX/XX/XXXX was XX/XX/XXXX. When calling back to ask when to expect my check IC Systems told me 2 more weeks which is XX/XX/XXXX. Calling today to IC systems to see where my check for XXXX is they claim to have sent it to the state of Kansas. Called state of kansas which stated they received payment from IC Systems for only XXXX. This is not right. Where is my money that is owed to me. I feel like I have waited a reasonable amount of time. This debtt collector has held my money and is not returning what is owed to me. As of XX/XX/XXXX I have not received the XXXX they promised to refund me for money collected on a debt that was paid in full. IC Systems can tell me the file is closed and the debt is paid but cant find my money.

I noticed a collection account by I.C. System on my credit report. I sent them a data validation to send me any contractual agreement information that I have with I. C. System. They are stating that I owe this alleged debt but I have no recollection of this company or account. To my knowledge, it is illegat to collect money for something when you do not have any legal standing to collect that debt. They are hurting my livelihood by reporting fraudulent information on my credit report. They are breaking the law and I take this very seriously. According to the provisions of the Fair Credit Reporting Act 623. Responsibilities of furnishers of information to consumer reporting agencies 15 U.S.C. 1681s-2 Reporting information with actual knowledge of errors. A person shall not furnish any information relating to a consumer to any consumer reporting agency if the person knows or has reasonable cause to believe that the information is inaccurate. By the inaccuracy they are reporting two completely different information to the credit reporting agencies. This is unfair practices and it needs to be removed.

IC Systems put a collection on my account dating back to XXXX. Originally it said XXXX XXXX and it now says XXXX. I was not aware of this until XXXX when I checked my credit. I sent a request to the credit bureau XXXX to verify the validity. On XX/XX/XXXX I requested an investigation regarding inaccurate/erroneous items on my credit file that were being reported illegally. On XX/XX/XXXX XXXX sent a letter stating that they had completed the investigation and the items were not deleted, as requested. On XX/XX/XXXX I sent a 2nd request for method of verification to send me all documentation provided by agency with my signature verifying this account is mine. On XX/XX/XXXX they sent a letter saying I needed to verify with the collection agency myself. I contacted IC SYSTEMS, XX/XX/XXXX and asked for validation of debt. IC SYTEMS, sent in response a collection notice. I followed up on XX/XX/XXXX with a Certified letter with proof of receipt asking for debt validation. In the letter I gave them 15 days to send this verification. As of this date I have received nothing from them. This is unacceptable!

In XXXX of 2020 I reported to all three credit bureaus and many creditors ( I.C. Systems being one of them ) that several accounts were fraudulently created in my name while I was away. I provided information of who I knew to be responsible along with a police report, FTC report and an intake and release report from the institution I was held in. I.C. Systems received all of this information. An investigation was done and the item was removed from my credit report by XXXX of 2020. On XX/XX/2020, I.C. Systems knowingly re-reported the fraudulent debt to my credit report. When I called for answers, the same day, they expressed that they did not have any of my identifying information such as my date of birth, last four or full social, or a correct address on file. They refused to speak to me any further unless I verified the debt. That same afternoon, I disputed the account with XXXX. I tried to dispute through the IC System website, but it asks me to input personal information they've already admitted to not having. So today, XX/XX/2020 I typed up a credit dispute letter to submit to them directly.

I have contacted I C Systems about an item they have put on my credit report about owing {$940.00}. This item by Original Creditor : XXXX ILLINOIS, a utility provider in the state of Illinois placed to collections : I C SYSTEMS is inaccurate because I have never lived in the state of ILLINOIS. It first appeared back in 2017 on my credit report under XXXX XXXX with the same amount {$940.00}. I disputed it with XXXX providing all the necessary documentation substantiating my claim and it was removed. Now it has showed up again after 2 years with a different collection agency. It is frustrating that I have to waste my time & energy again to take care of this. Both XXXX & XXXX are not willing to help remove it. To substantiate my claim I am attaching the following documents which I had already sent to XXXX & XXXX Addresses listed of all my credit reports, Most recent utility bill as address proof, Original Lease & lease amendment documents for the current residence Upon contacting I C System several times they have not done anything to remove this incorrect information from my credit report.

It was easily proven that I was unable to do this as I was in custody. So once I saw this report that I owed XXXX XXXX and now that debit was being pursued through a company called XXXX. I filed disputes with all XXXX credit bureaus and with XXXX XXXX XXXX in am attempt to remedy this. After no success I contacted XXXX XXXX on XXXX, I was told to fill out a Affidavit of Identity Theft and a police report, I did both and am waiting for this to be removed. This negative report has cost me money, time, and opportunity. I was just paid in the XXXX data breach as my information is routinely found on the dark web and I don't understand why it's so difficult for this to be proven its not mine, for all the above mentioned reasons this should be removed and I should be paid for the anguish this has caused. I just want it removed.

They stated I owe a XXXX $ balance on both bills as I was covered under the XXXX XXXX program. I spoke with these agencies XX/XX/XXXX and XX/XX/XXXX and again as of this date XX/XX/XXXX. The hospital and insurance company have both verified with me this debt was paid in full and I have no obligation to this debt. I contacted the agency and oringial creditor in regards to this matter. They requested documentation. I contacted the facility back where treatment was performed due to XXXX XXXX. The facility mailed me itemized statements showing a breakdown of what was billable and what was not. I spoke again with the creditor on XX/XX/XXXX and was told this will not be documentation that allows them to remove this collection. The facility and insurance company suggested this is all they could provide. I can not get this debt removed.

I have reached out this Debt Collecting Company by the name of IC Systems. I mentioned that I do not acknowledge this debt that they are making efforts collecting on. I have spoken to Two separate representatives and also Two supervisors that were on duty at that time. I requested a Validation of debt. They mentioned they have no validation of the debt they are collecting on and asked me to provide proof to them that the debt isn't mine that they are making attempts to collect on behalf of a creditor. However they are in violation of Utah Code Law. That clearly states that need to provide validation of debt in order to make attempts to collect debt. This collection company is inaccurately reporting information to credit bureaus that is affecting me negatively and has costed me lot of money. Along with that it has hurt my ability to obtain new accounts such as mortgage and has affected my credit rating. I now demand that this information be removed if ic systems are not able to provide validation of debt immediately so my credit report is accurately being reported to the credit bureaus.

On the afternoon of XXXX XXXX, I contacted I.C Systems via phone ( at XXXX ). When I got someone on the phone ( a woman who refused to repeat her name after it was given once, quickly, or collector identification ) I asked for information for who the original debt was issued by ; my credit report references a medical provider in Pennsylvania, but the name of the doctor / practice is not showing on the reports. I advised the woman I had an account number - she stated that they were unable to provide any information to me on the original debt at that time. She did not take down the account number, but read back my phone number to me from caller ID and advised my number was not appearing in their system. I again asked for validation of debt and I was told it was n't available. To date, I have not received any written communication from I.C.

I have requested a full complete itemized receipt of charges including : dates, addresses, energy charges, etc. from 2 collections companies and from XXXX & XXXX themselves, no one will provide this information to me. Over the years I have blindly paid whatever charges XXXX & XXXX arbitrarily alleged that I owed as I needed service and they are the sole energy provider in my area. This time I have chosen to dispute as my bill was not behind nor am I no longer required to utilize their service. The VP from XXXX & XXXX called me last year and promised to provide me with the requested information and I have never heard from them again, until today, when I spoke to XXXX at IC Systems, who also refused to provide me with documentation of debt and refused my request for a manager. I will not be paying this erroneous charge to XXXX & XXXX. I will have this gross error removed from my XXXX, if it means suing XXXX & XXXX is my only option.

This company claims that I have a balance of {$310.00} with them, I don't know who they are or what it is that this company does. I searched online for some information on them and it says that they collect debts. I sent a letter to XXXX asking them to validate this debt because I do not recognize where this debt came from and all that this company sent me is a copy of my credit report saying that the account was validated without providing me with an original contract bearing my signature. I asked for documents that would show an original contract with my signature or something that binds me to this debt but up to this day I have not received anything like that from them. This company placed this debt on my credit report as in collections and it is affecting my credit worthiness really bad. I know that by law they have to provide me with a contract that has my signature on it. On my credit report it shows ( XXXX XXXX ) as the original creditor but I never had an account or a contract with them. I want to see the contract with my signature on it that says that I agreed to pay this company.

I contacted the credit bureau and they removed the debt from my credit report as it is not under my name. Somehow they have it tied to my social security number and are again contacting me via phone and mail threatening to report it to the credit bureau again. I just called the company and spoke to XXXX XXXX ( supervised by XXXX XXXX ) who told me that they would continue to report it to the credit bureau and would not remove my social security number from the debt. He recommended that I keep disputing it every time they report it to the credit bureau and said that was my only option of recourse. That simply can not be true. Any help/advice would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

I am a XXXX man, and I was very upset, on XXXX, XX/XX/2023, when I received a phone call at XXXX XXXX. I missed the call but was concerned because someone was calling me so early. Even though I didnt recognize the number, I immediately called back. The call was from a collection agency demanding payment on an old debt that was past the statute of limitations, in New York. The name of the agency is : IC Systems XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX XXXX, MN XXXX XXXX I didnt recognize the name of the company they claimed I owed money to and the debt they were demanding payment on was XXXX or XXXX XXXX XXXX. I would like to file a complaint. Not only is this agency calling at an illegal time, but they are also participating in a predatory practice when they targeted, at least, this senior and demanded payment on a debt that is no longer a legal obligation. I would appreciate it if you could investigate this situation and let me know the results of your investigation. Thank you for your attention to this matter. Best regards, XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX XXXX XXXX, NY XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX

On XX/XX/2021, I C System added a derogatory mark with the amount of XXXX USD on my credit report XXXX, XXXX and XXXX ( Can be seen from XXXX XXXX as well ). Upon, further research, this account was transferred/sold from XXXX to I C System and I, the alleged DEBTOR, did not consent for the reselling of this alleged debt nor contract with either company. Also, there was NO written form of communication, contract, or signature for this accused debt at all. A bill without a signature does not validate the debt and any person can send a bill and say it is mine. According to FCRA, I C System has violated my rights as a consumer and I'm requesting legal action to remove this account immediately. FCRA Sec. 1681q. Obtaining information under false pretenses - Any person who knowingly and willfully obtains information on a consumer from a consumer reporting agency under false pretenses shall be fined not more than XXXX XXXX United States Dollars ( {$5000.00} usd ) or imprisoned not more than one year, or both.

I am writing to file a formal complaint against IC System Inc. for their collection activities on behalf of XXXX XXXX XXXX. The incident involves their persistent attempts to collect an alleged debt of {$200.00}. Despite my request for verification of the debt, IC System Inc. has not provided adequate documentation supporting the validity of the claimed amount. The lack of transparency regarding the alleged debt, including dates, charges, and supporting documentation from XXXX XXXX XXXX, is of concern. The actions taken by IC System Inc. have been aggressive, and I believe they may be in violation of the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act ( FDCPA ). I kindly request the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau to investigate this matter, seeking resolution through proper verification of the debt, cessation of aggressive tactics, and the provision of detailed information related to the alleged debt. I refrain from providing personal information in accordance with CFPB guidelines but am willing to furnish necessary details upon request. I appreciate your prompt attention to this complaint.

on XXXX/XXXX/XXXX after checking my credit report I noticed a derogatory remark on my credit report from a collection agency called XXXX XXXX who bought a debt from " XXXX ''. After contacting this company via mail and phone to validate this debt which is not mine the companies account was removed from my credit report. This is was not the first time I 've had to request validation from XXXX or their creditors. I once had 3 different accounts at different addresses on my credit report showing seriously delinquent all which were removed due to them not being mine. Today XXXX/XXXX/XXXX I wake up and there is a new account on my report from " XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX '' original creditors " XXXX '' for {$770.00}. I called XXXX and was told they do not handle these disputes and it seems to be fraud. I was advised to call the Credit bureau. I then called XXXX and was advised that " its a wash and rinse process and only thing they can do is keep disputing the accounts if collection agencies continue to sell, and also to contact the CFPB, FTC, and State attorney general office. so here we are!!

IC Systems has added a collections my credit report for the amount of {$210.00}. The debt in references was originally owed by XXXX XXXX XXXX and was apart of a XXXX with a recurring monthly payment. XXXX and IC Systems failed to send any notification of owing a past due balance and instead added the collections to my credit report. The account was cancelled with XXXX XXXX XXXX between in 2015 as our dog " XXXX '' was stolen from our property and a police report was made. XXXX was notified immediately via phone call at the XXXX location and our account was cancelled. After the cancellation we were still being billed for pet care through automatic debt on an old account that was closed. After speaking with a representative from IC Systems we were informed about a contract that apparently stated that regardless of the dog being stolen we still had to pay. We have submitted a dispute for verification of the debt and a copy of the contract with XXXX but we have not been provided anything from IC Systems. Even though the debt has not been verified it still remains on my credit report.

I've contacted I.C. SYSTEM, INC regarding a ATT U-verse debt that is showing up on my credit report. They informed me that the service ( I assume XXXX XXXX ) was setup at an address in Illinois. For what it is worth, I've had XXXX XXXX Stream service ( another ATT XXXX ) for five years, which should make one question why I would open an account for a second cable service. I informed I.C. System, INC that I've lived in XXXX my entire life, and there is no scenario that any service should have been setup at an address in XXXX. This must be a fraudulent account. I made no progress with this company. In fact, they used the opportunity, when I called to dispute the debt, to get my home address in XXXX and update their records instead of doing anything to determine if this was fraudulent. I disputed the debt on the XXXX credit report two times. With both disputes, the results came back within 24 hours with no change. This is impacting my credit score. Please note it is the only delinquency on my credit.. Seeking help because I've exhausted other means of getting this corrected.

My ex wife and I were going through the divorce process in XXXX, XXXX my ex wife asked XXXX XXXX to transfer her number to her own plan so that she could pay it. We contacted XXXX Customer Service and had her removed from my account and she gave them her social security number and they created her own account for her. I had no access to payment information or anything for her account. I was assured by customer service that I was not responsible anymore if she missed a payment. She had set up her own account. On XX/XX/XXXX I received a credit alert that I was sent to collections for {$500.00} that she did not pay. I called XXXX XXXX and they said that they had put her on a sub-account under my name and that I was legally responsible and that she wasnt responsible. I then called the collection agency and they had my ex wifes address on file and that she wasnt liable for the collection of the debt, only I was. We have been divorced officially since XX/XX/2019. I can not understand how I am liable for my ex wifes debt when I did nothing wrong. XXXX XXXX put it wrong in their system.

This account was disputed on XX/XX/XXXX with the CFPB and deleted from my credit report on XX/XX/XXXX due to it being a result of fraud identity theft. The dispute result stated that item would not be reported by the reporting agency I.C. System, Inc, however, the same agency reported the item on XX/XX/XXXX three months later, violating the agreement and going against the ruling of the CFPB. This account was re-reported to my credit report on XX/XX/XXXX. As a result I was denied on my rental application the same day that I applied which was XX/XX/XXXX. At this point this account has caused enough problems after Ive already proven that it is not mine. This account and debt do NOT belong to me and are a result of identity theft! There are many inaccuracies in the information on the account in question. My name, the account was used at an address that I have never lived in or been associated with, the email address on file does not belong to me, and I have not physically lived in XXXX or rented or owned an apartment or home since XXXX. I have NEVER had any services with XXXX.

The service I was getting from XXXX XXXX XXXX was so bad I couldn't keep the internet in a usable fashion. I then called XXXX XXXX and told them to cancel my contract because of poor service on internet. They did so. and cancelled my contract. Plus gave me a {$100.00} gift card for my troubles. This contract was cancelled withing a two week period. Several months went by and I got a collection notice from XXXX XXXX XXXX and I called them and told I had cancelled the contract because of poor internet service. The person from XXXX XXXX XXXX said he would clear the account and apologized. Several more months went then ICS sent notice. I had called them twice and no luck. Plus they did not want to hear my side. Since then I called XXXX XXXX XXXX several times and get promise would be taken care and I am still under collection. I tried all I know to clear this mess up but no luck. Now I am turning to you.

Hello, I have been trying to get this problem fixed since XX/XX/2021 with XXXX and XXXX and these reporting company hasn't sent me ANYTHING regarding this alleged debt. They haven't verified this XXXX Company debt and they haven't sent me any documents that i asked for or anything. So i am so confused who will be able to help me get this removed. Also the debt collector is I C SYSTEM and also hasn't notified me in any way ( 15 usc 1692g ) variolating my rights and keeping me in the dark I'm starting to feel like they are knowingly reporting false information and they wont fix it. It is really stressing me out since it's really been over 100 days of me trying, calling, and sending in disputes yet this XXXX Account is still on my report for no reason. They have violated so many consumer laws it is crazy. 15 united states code 1681 ( i ) ( a ), 1681 ( i ) ( 2 ) ( a ), 1681e ( b ) are just a couple and it should be deleted off my report immediately. Or else I will be forced to litigation since they seem to not be compliant with the law. 15 usc 1681n for willful noncompliance.

I am XXXX XXXX and Im submitting the complaint myself and there is no third party involved. After recently obtaining a copy of my consumer report I became aware that I.C. System, Inc. is reporting an " alleged '' debt to my consumer report. In accordance with my rights under the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act I am disputing this account and requesting a validation of debt ( 15 USC 1692g Sec. 809 ( b ) ). I am NOT requesting verification but I am requesting for VALIDATION and PROOF OF CLAIM. I request that their office provide me with evidence that I am obligated to pay them. Continuing to report this debt without properly validating is a violation of the FCRA ( Fair Credit Reporting Act ; 15 USC 1681 ). You have 30 days to respond to this request or this debt will be considered invalid and the demand for removal from your reporting agency will be required. I need this problem resolved as soon as possible as this is a negative reflection to my consumer report. I.C. System Inc. received all documents and supporting evidence of my complaint through the mail on XX/XX/2021.

This debt is for an electric bill for a house which I sold on XX/XX/2018. I contacted XXXX and had our power transferred to the new house on the day of closing. XXXX turned on the power at the new house but apparently failed to shut off the power at the old house. The person who bought the house just kept on using the " free '' power XXXX was providing. I was completely unaware until I received a bill from XXXX for the month of XXXX for the house which I sold in early XXXX. I contacted XXXX and they then turned off the power to the house which I had sold. I did my part and had the power transferred on the day of closing while I was still at the title company to sign the house over to the new owner. XXXX did only half of their job and now wants me to pay for their neglect. XXXX seems to think I should pay for their employees ' incompetence. XXXX turned this false debt over to IC System, a collection agency. This false debt has already been removed from my credit report once before, after being investigated by XXXX XXXX. Now IC System has now put it back on my credit report.

I know for a fact that not only I do not owe it but it's not even my account. I received the same collection from another collection agency who was wise to submit in writing that they've ceased collection on it. But yet this company IC Systems did not correspond as I requested in writing before reporting to all 3 credit bureaus. I am demanding immediate removal of it and or I will seek representation from an attorney. According to my rights none of the 3 bureaus nor this collection agency was suppose to place any debts on my credit files without proper investigation.

I had terminated a XXXX contract inXX/XX/XXXX and confirmed with them that I no longer had any balance on the account, after which I moved out of the country for a short period. In XXXX of XXXX, I began receiving debt collection calls on behalf of XXXX and was informed it was due to an unpaid balance of {$82.00}. I called XXXX and worked with them to find out they had erroneously left charges on my account that I was not aware of. When I asked why they had n't reached out via email, they said they 'd attempted to reach me on the disconnected number ( why, I 'm not sure ) and that when they could n't reach me they sent the debt to collections ( I C Systems ). Now, XXXX claims that it 's now " out of their hands '' and that I have to work with I C Systems. However, when I call them, they just repeatedly tell me " pay us '' and refuse to work with me otherwise. This has negatively effected my credit and my ability to obtain a line of credit that I would otherwise have been able to get. It 's very frustrating and am hoping that someone can provide some assistance.

I went through this before and it was taken off by XXXX. So I asked how long this was in his office and he says for 50 days. I said well how come I didnt get a phone call or letter in the mail stating whats going on so I couldve at least taken care of the Situation some how before it got on my credit report. He stated that they have The wrong info for me. I said thats not my fault. He agreed.

On XX/XX/2019 I notice a huge discrepancy in my XXXX account. An unauthorized transaction in the amount of {$2600.00} was taken from my account from XXXX. XXXX jacked up the price of the amount owed, this is not right. On top of that after they took the money from my account XXXX sent me another letter charging me late fees on a account that has been closed since XX/XX/2019. I contacted the bank to dispute this charge and also filed a CFPB complaint for the bank that's still pending. XXXX has been in contact with XXXX in regards to this transaction and refuse to refund my money/differential. I received a letter dated XX/XX/2019 from a IC Systems collection agency informing me that the XXXX account # XXXX in the amount of {$2600.00} was turned over to them. On a letter dated XX/XX/2019 I received yet another letter from the same collection agency offering me a settlement on this XXXX account for {$1800.00} I still though that was to high, but I was ready to accept the offered amount and move on. Also please note the collection letters have different amounts owed.

The company has continuously called not identifying themselves as debt collectors or an attempt to collect their debt. They received no answer no one says anything when they call and they use the robocall to update credit records as if they spoke to someone. They should not be able to update credit records saying that they spoke to someone for example they have a declared natural disaster written on my credit record no one spoke to me I never declared any natural disaster. This company is making false representations on my credit record updating it monthly is not two or three times a month they didn't buy the debt two or three times a month they have no right to update it to three times a month they've never spoken with me I don't owe this debt and they have been predatory in their attempts to collect the debt that is not old.

On XX/XX/2020, I learned there were four medical debts sent to collections. The collection agency is I.C. System, Inc.

System, Inc, verified the debt with all three credit bureaus. On XX/XX/2020, I contacted I.C. System to find out why I have medical debts in collections. The medical debts total in over {$6200.00}. I found out they have a total of 6 debts in collections. I requested for itemized bill for the collection of over {$6200.00}. I.C. System refused to send me an itemized bill. They said I have to contact the original creditor. I.C. System is trying to collect on a debt I don't even know what it is. They should be sending me an itemized bill so that I can review it to find out whether I was charged correctly or not. Please contact I.C. System and have them either send me an itemized bill or have them immediately remove all medical debts from collections on all of my credit reports.

So this XXXX account was previously with XXXX, XXXX. I sent a letter requesting debt verification in with XXXX in late XXXX of 2019. They never responded with debt verification but sold the debt to I C System which they opened the account in XXXX of 2019. I sent a dispute requesting that I C system verify/validate the debt through XXXX and they only said that it was verified, they never sent me the requested proof of validation nor did the send me a notice of debt which is required by US CODE 1692. I have asked for proof that this debt is mine from XXXX, and then this creditor on multiple occasions and they have sent me no proof at all but continue to report this debt illegally and change the dates of the balance being reported. I am requesting proof that this debt is mine and proof that they sent me a notice of the debt when they first purchased/opened it in 2019. The debt is not verified and there for should not be reported with out proper verification, including the paperwork from the original creditor ( XXXX ) and proof of their purchase from XXXX, XXXX.

The company added a collection to my credit report without my knowledge. I called and spoke to someone in their customer service department and they advised that the account was FDCPA violations! I request IC verify the following information : 1 - Full original account number 2 - Date original account was opened 3 - Any written and signed agreement between myself & original credit stating that the debt is owed 4 - Full account summary and itemized calculation of alleged debt 5 - Date of first alleged delinquency 6 - Dates and times of any phone calls made and to what number in attempt to contact me before it was reported to the agency, and so proving that these calls were made during the times governed by FDCPA law. If IC is unable to provide the above identifying account information, this account must be deleted from all CRA 's. IC also failed to follow FDCPA by not sending a letter giving the consumer time to dispute the validity of the alleged debt. I eventually received this letter dated XX/XX/XXXX although it is reporting on my credit as XX/XX/XXXX.

I called XXXX XXXX and told about my situation. Originally I thought it was identity fraud, but really it turned out to be XXXX 's fault in where they failed to transfer something on their part which caused a ghost amount of money to be accrued. They told me that there were 2 sub levels on my account. When I merged the 2nd sub level to the 1st sub level, it caused a device forced buy out which was where the debt came from. But when I talked to a XXXX representative and they checked the merge they saw that the agreement of the phone, XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, was not transferred over. I tried to work with the representatives as they continued escalating the case, but in the end they could not deal with it. They told me they keep voice logs of every customer service call, so if you investigate my phone number and their logs you could probably see and listen to the conversations I had. There should be enough evidence if you check from XXXX 's side that the debt I owed is falsified. I also have the escalation number which is XXXX and the call reference number is XXXX.

I am a victim of Identity Theft. Back in XXXX I went to a shopping center and lost my purse which contains ID 's, money and some personal effects. I did not bother to report since I was too complacent that maybe it was just another petty theft and realized later on the gravity of what happened. Fast forward.. XXXX of this year, for the first time I pulled up my credit report since I am looking for house. I noticed that there was a credit card opened back in XX/XX/XXXX with XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX, a collection account from IC System ( original creditor is XXXX and a medical collection from XXXX ( original creditor is Georgia XXXX XXXX ). The total balance of it all is roughly $ XXXX. I tried reaching out to the companies and even disputed it to the bureaus but they did not take my complaint seriously and ignore it up until now. I already filed an FTC affidavit and I am waiting for the copy of the police report I filed. This kind of matter should not be taken lightly. The unwillingness of the bureaus and the company clearly violates the Fair Credit Reporting Act..

The account is a XXXX account I had at my previous apartment unit about 3 years ago. I moved to a new unit in the same complex without being aware that I owe a balance of {$100.00} on my XXXX Cable. I was never contacted about paying this debt. Partly because correspondence is sent to an old address or my name is spelled wrong ( As can be seen in the attached document ) I suddenly see this item on my credit report as I now check it often for inaccuracies. I immediately called the Collection Agency and paid the amount in full XXXX along with a {$5.00} processing fee paid to PAY IN SECONDS. I made it known to the agent that if they had contacted me prior I would have made the payment to which she had no response, She however advised me that it can be deleted if i went through the right channel, which brings me to this site. According to the credit reporting agency this damaging record will remain on my account till XX/XX/2021. Since I paid the full amount the same day it was reported, I request a DELETION of this derogatory item from my XXXX credit file.

I received a missed call from IC Systems regarding a collection account. I returned the call to gather some information from the agency. Upon contact with the agencyi was treated like the scum of the Earth. I simply requested validation of the debt from the agent and was told it was previously sent out. I asked how could it have been sent if this was my first contact with the agency. The agent proceeded to inform me validation was sent on XX/XX/2017. I advise the agent I had n't received any communication from their company and again this was my first contact. I informed the agent whatever she claims was sent was the first notice NOT validation of the debt. I also informed the agent I have a right to request validation of the debt and by law the agency had to provide it. The agent became very argumentative and upset. I then requested to speak with a supervisor and the agent hung up the phone. The phone call requesting money for an unknown debt after knowingly sending out a notice that i have not received is a violation of the FDCPA ; clearly overshadowing..

XXXX XXXX has repeatedly sent me to different collection companies for cable boxes that were allegedly not returned. I lived with a roommate and when we parted ways in XXXX of 2017 we went to a XXXX store in XXXX XXXX and requested a transfer of responsibility to his name. I don't believe they gave us any documentation but i no longer received bills in my name and i believe they began emailing him the bills instead. Also this was 5 years ago so if there were paperwork i wouldnt still have it but they should have record of who they were billing and receiving payment from last. The last time they sent me to collections i successfully disputed it and it was removed from my credit report. I gave XXXX the name and phone number of the person responsible back then why they chose not to follow up i dont know or understand. Since then they recently started a new collections with a different company but never sent me anything in the mail i only found out by monitoring my report with XXXX. I have tried to dispute with XXXX but they have unjustly sided with XXXX.

I am allowed under the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act ( HIPAA ) to protect my privacy and medical records from third parties. I did not give permission to any of my current or prior medical providers to release any of my medical information to a third party. I am aware that the HIPAA does allows the release of limited information about me but anything more is to only be revealed with the patients authorization. Therefore, my request is twofoldvalidation of debt and HIPAA authorization. Please provide breakdown of fees including any collection costs and medical charges. Provide a copy of my signature with the provider of service to release my medical information to you. Cease any credit bureau reporting until the debt has been validated by me. Please send this information to my address listed which I am allowed under the FDCPA. Please note that withholding the information you received from any medical provider in an attempt to be HIPAA compliant can be a violation of the FDCPA because you will be deceiving me after my written request.

I received a letter dated XX/XX/XXXX from IC System alleging that I owe them {$220.00}. I have never done business with this company nor have I ever heard of them until I received this notice. I sent a letter to IC System requesting debt validation as per the FCRA. IC System responded to my request on XX/XX/XXXX by sending photo copies of a cable bill, with nothing bearing my signature, and placed this account on my credit report. On XX/XX/XXXX I sent another letter to IC System informing them that according to the FTC opinion letter from Attorney XXXX XXXX XXXX, photo copies of an old bill does not constitute verification. This letter was signed for by XXXX XXXX at IC System on XX/XX/XXXX. As of today, XX/XX/XXXX I have yet to receive any type of communication from IC System. This alleged account still remains on my credit report and is being reported by XXXX, XXXX, and XXXX. IC System is in violation of the FCRA & FDCPA. I am requesting that this account be immediately deleted from my credit report because it is causing damage to my credit file.

On XX/XX/XXXX. I.C Systems flagged my consumer report with an account from XXXX. After spending hours on the phone with XXXX, I was notified that this account was open fraudulently in XXXX under my name. There was no social security number tied to the account just my name and an address that I never lived at and not familiar with. I.C Systems have violated my rights under the FCRA " Permissible purposes of the consumer report '' 15 USC 1681b. They are furnishing my consumer report without my permission. They also failed to conduct the proper investigation concerning this account which is another violation under the FCRA. Attached to this complaint is a police report, FTC report, and the leasing agreement where I was living at from XXXX which is in XXXX, FL. This is proof that there's no way I am tied to this account and I am in fact a victim of fraud! I am demanding this account to be deleted and all my information to be removed from your files or I will seek litigation. Note that I am documenting everything and keeping all replies for court purposes.

I received a XX/XX/XXXX letter from IC System, regarding a debt turned over to them by XXXX, noted as the original and current debtor. As both a current and former XXXX customer, I was unfamiliar with the account number listed on the letter. I then contacted XXXX customer service today, XX/XX/XXXX, and an online agent confirmed that a previously-closed account was showing a past due balance for equipment not returned ; however, further review of the account showed notation that the equipment was, in fact, previously received by XXXX in XXXX. There was no further statement by the representative why the amount due remained on the account, or why it was referred to collections only now. The representative indicated that the account would be noted, but was otherwise vague as to what would happen regarding my old account apart from reference to a " ticket. '' There was no indication how an account with no actual outstanding payments or obligations would go " live '' insofar as debt owed, and why that was not vetted before referral to a debt collector.

In XX/XX/2017, I switched phone companies from XXXX to XXXX. XXXX has a switcher or buyback program where they will buy you out the phone up to a certain amount. I spoke with a representative from XXXX at XXXX XXXX as to how long it will take to pay the whole bill off before it reflects on my credit and she told me 6 months. When I was doing the switch for my wife & I, we have to give XXXX both phones, which we did, in order for the switcher program to proceed. They sent one box to my house and as instructed by XXXX ( a worker at the XXXX store ), I put both phones in the box then a week later a second box was received. Up to this day, I've been still trying to resolve receiving credit for the second phone that was traded in and because of that, XXXX has still not paid for the second phone from XXXX. XXXX, in 2 months, sent the bill to a debt collector where I tried to dispute it and they were rude and told me it would affect my credit badly if i didn't pay it and when I do pay it, it would come off my credit ( which i found not to be true anyways ).

So, my wife and I have had our credit pulled to get pre-approved for a new home. Was informed there was some medical collections that needed ot be paid before we do that. I called and tried to negotiate they ( I.C systems ) told me it was in collections for too long and we had to pay in full amount and would not settle. This was XX/XX/2022 I paid in full to all three acounts .... After I paid, I started working with a credit repair gentleman and he asked if I had already paid the accounts on there, I said yes and he said well you shouldn't have because it was reported fraudulent and should have never been put back on your credit .... Said it is fraud because they lied to you saying you owed when it was too old to be collected. I was speaking to a lady from I.C. Systems. Which last year, with my entire tax return, I paid off more medical debt in collections and it is still reporting on there... After they told me it would only take 30-45 days to get off my credit. And still reporting on there and hurting mine and my wife 's credit still to this day.

At the time of the debt I only owed for 2 months pet insurance of {$78.00} which I had paid when I closed the account! I have received zero communications from XXXX XXXX XXXX since, and then suddenly in XX/XX/XXXX, I began receiving notifications from IC SYstems about this debt to XXXX and of {$300.00}, which is more than DOUBLE what I originally owed. I have contacted this company twice in XX/XX/XXXX that I do not owe this debt, yet it keeps showing up under my credit. Previous to IC SYStems, it was under First Credit. I disputed this same account then, and it was dropped. I do not know what else to do, but this debt is old, was sufficiently paid off in XX/XX/XXXX - and beyond 7 years from when I originally owed XXXX XXXX XXXX. These companies seem to buy old debt that have since been written off. XXXX XXXX

A few months ago I created an account on the XXXX XXXX website out of curiosity. Since I 've never had a credit card, the site displayed no credit history. To my surprise, I was then informed of my responsibility to pay an open collection of {$340.00}. There is also a closed collection that I never knew about, or closed for that matter. I recognize the name of the creditor, as he treated me when I was XXXX. At that point in time, I was completely XXXX. However, I was never made aware of this debt until viewing my credit report for the very first time. This egregious manner of handling an unpaid bill is downright unfair. Thankfully, I am now a healthy and proactive individual that would like to get his life truly started. I would like to have my first credit card, but I can not acquire anything but a secured credit card with my " collections '' on record. I have no problem when it comes to paying a bill, I 'd just like to be notified when a balance is due. It bears repeating that the manner in which I acquired this debt is nothing short of insidious.

I received a bill months after a procedure for anesthesia from XXXX XXXX, after I paid upfront and was informed that the time went over and I had to pay more. So I made arrangement to make a few payments, however, there were numerous issues with staff due to Covid and the employees working from home and much confusion as to if I really did owe more, regardless, I made payment as I do not want any negative marks on my credit report and I made final payment of {$60.00} XX/XX/2020 and then was called and told that they made a mistake and I owed an additional {$70.00} which I paid on XX/XX/2020. I never heard from them again until this week I received a collections notice for {$50.00} out of nowhere. Why would they not contact me in over a year and all of a sudden just say I owe more money again? How many times will they do this? I never received any additional bills after the last payment of {$70.00} which I was told was final payment. I was told it was my final payment and I do not want to continue to have them state that I owe more when I do not.

I disputed this debt with I.C. System Collections with no resolution. I sent a certified validation letter on XX/XX/XXXX in regards to this collection in the amount of {$76.00} being reported on my credit report. I respectfully requested a validation in which I have the right to request due to the debt you say I owe under the pursuant to 15 USC 1692g Sec 809 ( b ) of the FDCPA. XXXX XXXX received the certified letter on XX/XX/XXXX and has yet to respond to my request. I am requesting proof that I am indeed the party you are asking to pay this debt, and there is some contractual obligation that is binding on me to pay this debt. I have no contractual obligation with this company but yet they continue to report to all three credit bureaus in which is unlawful being that they failed to validate the debt. This debt constitutes defamation of character, as negative listing on my credit. I requesting they provide me with evidence that I have any legal obligation to pay or promptly delete all information from my credit file which can not be validated.

I sent a letter to I.C. Systems on XX/XX/2022, about some collections they reported on my credit report. I told them I was writing them a letter to tell them to send the debt back to the original creditor ( XXXX ) that sold it to them. It's illegal but not enforceable for a collection agency to buy debt from another company, then go after that person as if they had a contract with their collection agency. I know this collection agency does not have any paperwork showing that I made agreements with you with my signature. I told them that if their collection agency does not send this debt back to the original creditor, I will file a complaint with the CFPB, XXXX, FTC, and Attorney General. Also, I will hire a consumer attorney to sue your company for injuries up to {$1000.00}. I will also file complaints against the credit bureaus. Despite a previous written request on XX/XX/2022, this debt, which I told them to send back to the original creditor, remains on my credit report in violation of federal law.

A debt collection company, I C Systems Inc., is reporting 33+- collection accounts on my credit reports. I have disputed them with the credit agencies. I C Systems removed some of the reports but has not removed the XXXX. I called I C Systems and requested proof of the debt from them. They told me I needed to request the information via mail. On XXXX XXXX 2017 I sent a letter requesting the proof of debt to I C Systems. I have followed up with I C Systems multiple times and have received no response from them. I have not received the proof of debt and do not believe it is my debt. I am asking you to please contact them on my behalf and have them either send the requested proof or remove the information from my credit reports. It has been more than 60 days since I requested the information. Their lack of response should be enough to have the information removed from my report. I have attached with this complaint copies of my credit report showing the wrong entries as well as my letter to them. I have redacted any personal information. Thank you

My credit report is showing I owe, two separate balances, to XXXX XXXX XXXX. The two amounts showing owed are for {$510.00} and {$630.00}. At the time of receiving medical attention, in XX/XX/XXXX, at XXXX XXXX, I was under the impression that my insurance would be covering 100 % of my medical expenses. At the time of my visit, I was informed by XXXX XXXX, that my insurance was accepted and I did not need to come out of pocket for any expenses. I am just now, in XX/XX/XXXX, becoming aware of my insurance not being accepted by XXXX. Shortly after my visit to XXXX, I went through a divorce, became unemployed and relocated out of state. I recently looked into repairing my credit and became aware of these accounts. When I contacted XXXX, I was told that these accounts were too old for me to dispute. I was never even notified of the debt, nor given information about being able to dispute the debt. I also requested to apply for financial assistance, but was denied. These accounts have reached the statute of limitations in the state of Utah.

I visited my doctor at XXXX for my regular checkup and as suggested did lab work at doctor 's office. This lab work is sent to XXXX labs for study. The XXXX related expenses are dealt by insurance and doctor 's office. The XXXX labs should have Forwarded the insurance bill to my insurance company and any thing from there should have been dealt by my Insurance and Doctor 's office. Instead they kept sending to me which i thought was already taken care by Insurance. They moved this amount to collections impacting my credit very bady and without my knowledge. When i got to know about this i did call up XXXX on several occasions and each time they misguided me and said Doctor 's office is responsible. This continued long when i brought this to my Doctor 's office they said to deal with XXXX. Only when i narrated this incident to my Doctor then the doctor 's office found out that mistake was from XXXX. I want correct reporting back of my Credit score and also would like to register a complaint against XXXX and their practices in billing matters

In 2019 I got married and moved from XXXX SC to XXXX SC. I paid everything that I owed XXXX and closed my account. After the move I was contacted by XXXX about equipment and I asked for a return label and was provided one. I took all of the equipment that belonged to XXXX to the XXXX Store in XXXX SC and returned it as directed. AFTER all of the equipment was returned to XXXX they then charged me for the equipment, " NOT BEFORE " or did they even mention a charge until after the return was made. I refused to pay for equipment that I had already returned and they turned me into a collection agency and it has negatively effected my credit report in which is otherwise perfect. I have tried to call XXXX to discuss this issue and they will not take my call because " I do not have an active account " with them. I have contacted IC Systems Collections and explained and " it has been disputed " with them. I have also " disputed " this with XXXX without any results. Please stop XXXX from negatively effecting my credit report without due cause.

XXXX sent a notice to IC Systems to collect payment from me. IC Systems notified me that they will have to report to consumer report on XX/XX/20. The date of call was XX/XX/20. I explained to IC Systems that I never had active service with XXXX and I asked them to look at the system as this is easy to verify. IC Systems verified with me that I used 0 mins, 0 gb of data, and 0 inbound/outbound, from the creation of this account. I was sent 2 sims that never worked back in XXXX, the day after I received the sims, I contacted XXXX to let me know that the service didnt work in my area. I was told on that day that I would receive a {$0.00} balance on this account and it would be closed because I never actually used the service. Now 2 months later Im being threatened and seemingly pressured into paying for something I obviously never used. I will attach pictures with this complaint. Please notice the dates as XXXX seemingly has a policy in place to create unfair billing practices. They obviously dont abide by their own dispute policy as well.

On XX/XX/2022 I was notified by my credit card company that my credit limit for one of my credit cards was basically cut in half of what I was approved for. In looking at my credit report, there is an account in collections named I.C. SYSTEM, INC who has never attempted to contact me because this debt is not mine. My credit report shows that the original creditor is XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX with a balance of {$1700.00} of which I have never had an account with XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX of {$1700.00}. My understanding is that XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX is the the wireless carrier side of XXXX XXXX XXXX. I have always had XXXX XXXX as my mobile carrier. These charges are NOT mine and I believe that I have been a victim of fraud or identity theft. No one from XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX or I.C. SYSTEM, INC has ever tried to contact me to resolve the debt BECAUSE IT IS NOT MINE! I attempted to dispute this account via XXXX and they came back within a day ( after stating that it may take up to 30 ) that the account is mine. This is 100 % completely false!

In the beginning XX/XX/2020 I received a notification on my credit report of a collections debt from IC System. I didn't know what the debt was about because I did not receive any mail pertaining to this. I called and was told it was from XXXX bill owed. I have never had a XXXX account and know nothing of this debt. I proceeded to write a letter on XX/XX/XXXX and sent via certified mail to ask them to verify the debt and explained to them I do not have an account number because I was never given a letter. They wrote me back saying they needed an account number to verify the debt and that the account number can be found on their website. I was able to obtain the account number and sent another letter on XX/XX/XXXX with their letter and my original letter as requested by them via certified mail and again asked them to verify the debt within 30 days and if not to delete this off my credit. They received the letter on XX/XX/XXXX and to date I have not received a verification of the debt and it has not been removed from my credit report.

As a US service member I had froze my XXXX XXXX Account when I received orders to be stationed overseas in XXXX XXXX .

When I purchased my new phone in XXXX I updated my billing/address information with the sales attendant in XXXX 's XXXX , CO store. In XXXX I switched carriers to XXXX , taking my XXXX phone number with me. Unknown to me, I had a {$73.00} balance left on my XXXX XXXX account. XXXX only attempted to notify me of this balance by mail and they used my old overseas mailing address. The only time I was called about this balance was when it had already gone to collections and subsequently it ended up on my credit report. XXXX did not use my updated U.S. ad dress nor did they attempt to call me on the phone number that they knew I took with me to reach me about this balance. Only the collections agency ( IC System ) used my phone number to reach me.

After reviewing my credit report and noticing inaccurate information I sent a certified letter to IC System dated XX/XX/20 requesting that the company validate the reported {$360.00} debt. I received a response letter from IC System dated XX/XX/20, advising that they had investigated the information that was provided to the credit bureau and stated that they had been unable to verify the information reported to the credit bureau. Therefore, they had requested that any information provided to the credit bureau regarding the account be deleted or removed. The letter then explained that I may wish to review my credit report to ensure that the information has been properly updated. However, the letter then stated that the attempts to verify the debt would continue and gave me 30 days to dispute the validity of the debt. Based on the document that they provided, they have now given me a new account number for the very same debt. I need a resolution to resolve this matter and would like to file an official complaint against the company.

I called I.C. System asking for an explanation for continuing to have it on their system as a debtor. An IC employee told me over the phone that there was a duplication of my case and that the system was improperly charging the same debit from XXXX. They did not offer me any resolution regarding the wrongful collection and the recovery of the points lost in my credit due to neglect of the company.

I am requesting that you allow me to validate the alleged debt. I am unaware of any outstanding phone bills that I possess, and I am seeking the name and address of the company to which I owe the debt and a detailed breakdown of the fees that I owe. * Cease any credit bureau reporting until the debt has been validated by me.

XXXX XXXX XXXX is trying to collect money from me that I dont owe. I open up a business account I was told I had 7 days to return the phone if I decided to close the account the only thing I would be charged would be a restock of {$5000.00} for the phone. After thoroughly thinking I decided to return the phone and end the contract within the timeframe they gave me..I was charged the {$50.00} restock fee. I thought everything was over. I started getting letters that I owed over {$300.00}. I was shocked because I never made a phone call on the phone.I called and the representative told me where he saw that I returned the phone in the timeframe allowed and saw my {$5000.00} restock fee. I was even told they would have never accepted the {$50.00} restock fee if I didnt return the phone and cancel the contract within the timeframe. I was happy to her that. The representative said he will notate and I shouldnt get anymore letters concerning this. Well now I have a letter from a collection agency stating I owe XXXX XXXX XXXX {$300.00}.

This new collection account is being collected from a previously removed debt for a balance I do not owe and disputed. I disputed this debt prior to the collection agency reporting it to my credit and requested validation. They did not provide validation and reported it to my credit and only when I disputed with credit bureaus was the dispute honored. I do not owe this debt I have disputed it since being contacted by the original creditor and have maintained XXXX responsibility of the debt since day XXXX. This debt collection continues to try and basically extort the balance by holding my credit hostage with negative credit ratings. This item was removed from my credit previously and should be removed and remain off my credit in a disputed status as I am not responsible for the debt as there was never any exchange of goods or services. This collection agency is also collecting on a debt that is also being handled by an attorney based on the previous agency so the debt is being collected on XXXX and handled by multiple parties.

I received mail saying I had an past due bill for an XX/XX/XXXX account but everytime I attempted to call IC SYSTEMS, inc ( the debt collection agency ) to dispute they never answered the phone. To dispute via their website, I would need to have a bureau investigation number, but the fact that this is NOT my account I dont know what it is. I decided to wait for it to hit my XX/XX/XXXX app then dispute it. Ive been disputing for over 3 months and nothing at all. Ive dispute even through my chase app and I believe IC systems is trashing ever dispute entered without reading it. Someone opened some type of cable bill/phone bill and stopped paying it in XXXX of this month. This account was never on my credit UNTIL the XXXX month meaning someone slapped my name and address on it and they accepted without rulos le checking. I want proof that I opened this account with signatures and dates. Its said how some debt collector workers get paid commission over something that literally can effect someones livelihood without double checking.

I have two collections reported on my credit history. Both in the amount of {$670.00} and from XXXX. I have twice contacted ic systems about verifying the accounts. The first time, in XXXX I received a letter stating that they could not verify the accounts and would stop reporting them. They did not stop reporting them. I sent another verification request in XX/XX/XXXX, I received a response stating that they can not respond because they need further information to include a reference number from previous correspondence ( I have never received any correspondence except from the above stated instance and that letter had no reference number. ) they also asked the name of the creditor, and any phone number they have used to contact me. They have never called me, and I dont have the name of the creditor. So they are reporting to my credit after stating they couldnt verify my debt, they dont know who the creditor is to this unverified debt, and are asking for a reference number I have never received for a debt they can not verify.

I was a patron of XXXX XXXX years ago. The service was terrible, so I paid off my account and ported my number to another service provider in XXXX. I went to the XXXX XXXX Office, told the associates I wanted to port my number to another provider. They checked my account to make sure I didn't owe a balance. ( You can only port if you don't owe a balance on your account! ) Then they called the new service provider to give them the port code. They were supposed to give me a XXXX dollar gift card for turning in my XXXX, as well as over XXXX bucks in rebated fees for the poor service, never received any of it. I called and called. That should have been the end of my business with XXXX XXXX, months later they tried to bully me into paying them more money for a bill I didn't owe. I don't know who this I.C. System Company is? How can these people put anything on my credit bureau, I have not heard of them or done business with them ever! They need to remove their record from my report, they know absolutely nothing about this ordeal!

On XX/XX/XXXX of XXXX a {$120.00} charge from a company/organization called " IC System '' was placed on my credit report in the collections category. I've attempted to reach out to this organization to get more information on the actual debt, but did not receive a response to any of my contacts. In addition to this, I wasn't notified of this debt prior to it being placed on my record. In XXXX of XXXX I was finally able to find the source of the debt when I submitted a dispute to XXXX. XXXX ( the internet provider ) placed a {$120.00} collections from my account that is up-to-date on payments and was just recently closed out. I reached out to XXXX in an attempt clear up the issue, but the representatives that I spoke with were unable to locate the {$120.00} charge that is supposedly owed. I am a XXXX XXXX who is already having credit troubles due to changes in my family 's financials and something like this makes it impossible to secure leading to continue my schooling.

I acknowledged how they never called me and they never sent anything in writing to me yet they placed three negative marks on my credit ( XX/XX/XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX, and XX/XX/XXXX ). I also indicated in complaint # XXXX for this company to NOT call me, but to send the debt information in writing so that I could verify the debt, and pay it if valid. I received a call on XX/XX/XXXX at XXXX from this company. I couldn't answer at the time, but called back at XXXX and verified it was this company. I stressed how I told them NOT to call me, but to send everything in writing. I am unsure who this company is, but blatantly ignoring codes/ rules and consumer 's preference of no call, but send letter is COMPLETELY UNACCEPTABLE. I will continue filing to notify XXXX XXXX about the unethical business practices of this company as this needs to be brought to your attention. I am not ok with what is currently taking place.

I have been dealing with I C SYSTEM COLLECTIONS for this debt of {$200.00} I asked them to validate this and they never sent me any information and because they couldn't validate they removed this collection from my credit report. This account is three years old according to them. After they removed this item it stayed off my credit report for about a year then they just placed it back on there as a brand new account as of XXXX 2020. They never sent me a letter stating they were putting this item back on my credit report. They are the original creditor that removed it originally. I was never given a proper written notice to dispute this debt or notice that it was going back on my credit report. I called and spoke with a supervisor about this and they refused to do anything about it. I asked to speak with someone above him and was given a name of someone but they refused to give me a phone number stated I could only write in to resolve this.

We have XXXX in our home. When they installed it, it did not work right. We kept having connectivity issues. We contacted them several times. They checked things on their end, but took their time correcting it. During that time, we told them we want the service, but it has to work right. They understood, and eventually got someone out to our home to confirm that they aligned the dish " wrong '' and that was the cause of all of our months of issues. Now, we are applying for a new home loan, and this comes up! We did not know it went to collections as well. This is totally WRONG. XXXX admitted their installation error ( " ... it was a Level 1 Technician ... '' ), and waived the equipment charge. They also admitted that they shouldn't have billed us for this in light of the issues at hand. NOW I have learned that IC System Inc XXXX Collection XX/XX/2016 {$220.00} is related to the XXXX error. Our bills are paid up. This collection reference is bogus, and should be immediately removed. XXXX will confirm we are paid as agreed.

I was recently checking my credit report and noticed, IC System has been reporting to my credit report inaccurate and unvalidated information. They were not able to provide me with any documentation or application with my signature proving I owe this debt to IC System. I reached out to IC System, requesting validation for the alleged debt. IC System response was for me to reach out to the original creditor " XXXX ''. When I called XXXX, they were not able to locate an account for me and advised me to contact the IC System, informing them to remove the negative account from my credit report. If IC Systems purchased this alleged debt, they're claiming I owe, this agency is in violation of 15 U.S.C. 1692g. They were to notify me of this account within 14 days prior and I was not notified. I can validate this debt. I do not validate this debt. Under 15 U.S.C. 1692f a debt collector may not use any false deceptive or misleading representation or means in connection with the collection of any debt, this account is in violation.

I received a copy of my credit report with the intention of trying to improve my credit and take care of my responsibilities and noticed a few accounts that I wanted a little more explanation on. I am not saying they are reporting right or wrong. I am just saying that I am not 100 percent sure if they are. I also read something called the Fair Credit Reporting Act where it said by law, I had rights to challenge anything I am not sure is accurate. Some of the people reporting things on me, I have never heard of which made me write to you all. Are you familiar with something called 15 U.S.C. Sec. 1681i ( a )? I heard that if you cant provide proof, these accounts must be deleted. Well I want these accounts deleted if they are not 100 percent right and correct. So, could you please check on these and get back with me? I saw on a Credit Site and Board where this lawyer said you have 30 days to complete this investigation. Please investigate the following accounts and remove them if anything is missing or not correct on them.

IC Systems collection agency has been harassing multiple family members ( including my brother, and elderly father ) on many occasions. On one occasion my father was with me and passed me the phone, i explained to the gentlemen on the phone that the number he is calling is not mine and my fathers and to stop calling it and he hung up on me. I called again, and spoke to a women who said they would take my fathers number off file. They still call my father almost everyday. Harassing an elderly man for no reason, demanding him to put me on the phone to speak with them. I have also on more then one occasion told this company not to call me anymore or send letters, since they wished not to settle an amount with me. I explained if they didn't wish to settle then there is no reason to keep calling me. They send letters to my house every single week. It absolutely insane. I called once from my work phone to speak to someone about settling and now they call my work phone! So unprofessional, this is beyond the point of harassment.

I am writing to formally submit a complaint against IC System Inc. concerning their collection efforts on behalf of XXXX XXXX XXXX. The issue stems from persistent attempts to collect an alleged debt of {$1200.00}. Despite my request for verification, IC System Inc. has failed to provide adequate documentation supporting the validity of the claimed amount. Their collection tactics have been aggressive and may be in violation of the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act ( FDCPA ), causing undue stress. Furthermore, IC System Inc. has not furnished a detailed breakdown of the alleged debt, including dates and charges. I kindly request the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau to investigate IC System Inc. 's actions, seeking resolution through verification of the debt, cessation of aggressive tactics, and provision of a detailed breakdown. I refrain from providing personal information in accordance with CFPB guidelines but am willing to furnish necessary details upon request. I appreciate your prompt attention to this matter.

There is a derogatory account from XXXX XXXX XXXX appearing on my credit report. My last payment on this account was in XXXX of XXXX, as that is when I switched to XXXX, which I have to date. XXXX XXXX XXXX has since sold my debt to IC System. They state that the account was recently opened on XX/XX/XXXX which is FALSE. Im guessing that is when IC Systems acquired the debt. It has now been 7 years since the last date of activity on the XXXX XXXX XXXX account. This debt should no longer be appearing on my credit report. IC systems has fraudulently stated Affected by natural disaster in the remarks section, as well as listed incorrect date the debt was opened. I am requesting that XXXX XXXX XXXX provide the signature page stating when the account was actually opened. IC Systems has blatantly provided false information to the credit bureaus in a gross and dishonest attempt to collect a debt that is now aged past 7 years. I would like this derogatory item removed from my credit report and a written apology from IC Systems.

Dear Consumer Financial Protection Bureau, I am writing to report a problem with a debt that I have been told I owe. I have not been provided with enough information to verify that the debt is accurate, or to dispute it effectively. I have received communications from a debt collector stating that I owe a certain amount of money, but I have not been given any details about the origin of the debt or the transactions that led to it. Without this information, I am unable to determine if the debt is legitimate or if it has been accurately calculated. I have requested that the debt collector provide me with more information about the debt, but I have not received a satisfactory response. I am concerned that I XXXX be the victim of debt collection abuse or fraud, and I am seeking your assistance in resolving this matter. I would appreciate it if you could help me obtain the information that I need to verify or dispute this debt. Please let me know what steps I can take to address this issue. Thank you for your help.

This complaint is related to XXXX prior complaints : XXXX & XXXX. XXXX claims that I owe them {$110.00} following cancellation of my service. I assert that XXXX charged me for a phone line that I did not request and that I did not use. XXXX can verify this from their own records however, they refuse to refund all of the overcharges due to their internal policies. In addition, XXXX unilaterally changed the " cancellation '' terms that I had agreed to when I signed a contract with them. Nonetheless, XXXX and/or their collection agencies has reported their alleged debt of {$110.00} XXXX times to credit agencies, each time having a meaningful effect on my credit rating. The dates that they reported the alleged debt are XX/XX/XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX and most recently XX/XX/XXXX. Thge amount of this alleged debt doesn't warrant a legal proceeding however XXXX continues to use their ability to disparage my credit rating without apparent consequence. In my opinion, the harassment is quite egregious and unwarranted.

I am writing to formally dispute the reporting of the charge-off status for the above-mentioned account on my credit report. I believe that the charge-off status as reported is inaccurate and not in compliance with applicable consumer protection laws. According to the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act ( FDCPA ) and the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), it is required that accurate and up-to-date information is reported on consumers ' credit reports. I understand the importance of maintaining accurate information, and I wish to ensure that my credit report reflects a true and accurate representation of my financial history. Furthermore, I would like to bring to your attention the Internal Revenue Service 's guidelines regarding charge-offs of debt. The IRS defines a charge-off as the creditor 's determination that the debt is uncollectible and is treating the debt as a loss or expense. This determination does not relieve me of my obligation to address the debt, but it does impact how the debt should be reported

As codified by federal law I requested : Debt validation- 1 ). Copy of the ORIGINAL CONTRACT with my SIGNATURE for the debt. 2 ). FULL payment history from the original creditor 3 ). Need the name and address of the original creditor 4 ). Need proof that they now own Or have been assigned to collect the debt. Most companies sent the name and address of original creditor and the proof they have been assigned to collect the debt not NONE of the credit companies showed NO ACCOUNT WITH AN ORIGINAL CONTRACT WITH SIGNATURE OR A FULL ( not just a month or two ) HISTORY. As codified by federal law these accounts must be closed and must be removed as a Derogatory mark on my 3 credit reports. I gave contacts them to explain that they have not returned the full request as required by law and are refusing to close and remove remarks.

On XX/XX/2019, I.c. System inc reported a {$180.00} medical bill to XXXX claiming that I owe that debt. On XX/XX/2019, just a few days later, I.c. System inc reported the same amount again. On XX/XX/2019 and XX/XX/2019 I.c. System inc again reported the same {$180.00}. Now again on XX/XX/2019 and XX/XX/2019 I.c Systems Inc reported the same amount of {$180.00} yet again. They also reported the same debt to XXXX in XX/XX/2019 and XX/XX/2019 for the same {$180.00}. Upon speaking to I.c System inc they claimed that the debt was building interest and accumulating an amount because XXXX XXXX kept adding things to the bill. I informed them at that time that I do not own that debt nor do I know of them or the XXXX XXXX. I then requested for them to stop contacting me by phone or otherwise and to stop hitting my credit and to especially stop doing it multiple times. They have a robocall system that will contact you from different numbers. They are a complete and utter harassment. And what they are doing is illegal.

I cancelled XXXX XX/XX/XXXX. My final bill ( account number XXXX statement date XX/XX/XXXX ) showed I had an overpayment of {$30.00}. I returned the equipment in the box that they sent me using the US Postal Service in XX/XX/XXXX. I am now receiving collection action from ICSystem in the amount of {$280.00}. They told me this amount is partially for equipment and part unpaid bill. I know I don't owe any bill because I have the last statement showing that they owe me. I sent back all the equipment. I can not find the receipt from the post office. They told me all I can do is go online and tell them I want to dispute it so they can research it but the online forms makes me put in a date and tracking number and they know I don't have either and there is nowhere for me to show them that they say its for an unpaid bill but they owe me. I think they are taking advantage of me because I am a senior. Please help me. I do not owe them money, they owe me money. I attached my last bill and the collection bill. Thank you.

I returned this product since last XXXX ( 2015 ) .To date XXXX is still charging me for the product. Since I refused to pay they had send my account to a collection agency. In addition, I usually order product from another online creditoe. XXXX. Approximately 2 weeks ago I had attempted to order products from XXXX. I had experienced prejudical treatment from XXXX staff. Eventually they took my order but, never approved it. About a week later, I called XXXX and was pushed around for almost one hour. Finally a supervisor from XXXX customer service, in a nasty tone of voice said that she had cancelled my XXXX account because my XXXX account was send to a collection agency. I should not be paying for any product that I did not have or received. In addition I shoild not be discriminated against because some staff members from XXXX have that authority to discriminate at will.

I paid Creedence the {$170.00} with my XXXX credit card on XX/XX/XXXX ... ... because I did not want to lower my credit score. In late XXXX, I contacted credit bureau and informed them this debt was paid. I check my credit report a few weeks later and it showed the debt was paid. On XX/XX/XXXX I received a letter from IC system saying I owed XXXX for the same account number as the one I paid before to XXXX On XX/XX/XXXX I called XXXX and spoke with XXXX XXXX at XXXX EST.

The company in question is I C System of whom which is attempting to collect a debt for XXXX and XXXX. I have disputed these accounts with all credit reporting agencies ( XXXX, XXXX, XXXX ) as well as with the debt collector ( IC System ) directly asking them to verify the debt of which they have failed to do within the 30 day time frame given. One account XXXX XXXX ) was deleted from my credit file In XX/XX/2022 as the result of a dispute made with the credit reporting agencies, but as of recent the debt has reappeared on my credit file under a new debt collector named XXXX XXXX XXXX. It is my assumption that IC system has sold the debt to a third party in an attempt to keep the invalidated accounts on my credit file while avoiding having to verify the debt or be held accountable. As of XX/XX/2022 this new debt collection agency is now re-reporting this unverified debt that was deleted on my credit report! The other account in question ( XXXX ) still remains on my credit report unchanged and unverified.

There is a XXXX collection on my credit report, that i has no idea of until the collection was reported to the Credit Bureau. I was never contacted regarding this debt. If I was contacted there was never a message left requesting a return phone call. Therefore I was not aware this account needed my attention. I have contacted IC Systems in regards to this debt, and they stated an address that I have no lived at in 5 years. If I had been contacted about my address change I would have taken care of the situation. My correct address is listed on the report given by credit karma from CI Systems. I have still yet to receive a notice for this collection. The only reason I even know about this debt is through my credit karma credit report. I have attempted to go to their website to look over the debt I supposedly owe, but the company requires a reference number to the account which I do not have because I have never received a notice. I have no files to attach to this complaint due to never receiving a notice.

Since I saw this complaint from XXXX/XXXX I started sending communications to them soliciting the removal of the adverse information. I request them to provide with original documentation or details about the amount showed as a debit. They never provide with that info. Later another company appears collecting the same debit for {$560.00}. I did return all of the equipment 's to the cable company. Regardless that fact. cable company still collecting those equipment 's after a couple of years of being returned. I did contact IC Systems as well, and every time I contacted them, they just said " verified '' and change the dates of account opened to the date I've contacted them. I have contacted them over 10 times with negative results. I would like to have an auditing company or someone from upper levels to take this into consideration. I would like to see original documents where shows amounts owed " according to them ''. I feel abused for this company IC Systems and completely ignored in my requests.

I received several calls from a company called IC Systems. The calling telephone number was XXXX. The person calling contacted me on my hospital on-call telephone ( I 'm a doctor and was on call ). I asked what it was regarding and the person said " a personal business matter ''. I informed the caller that if this call was not pertaining to a medical emergency or related matter, that it would be inappropriate to use this number. The person ignored this and went on to ask me a barrage of rude and intrusive questions. I firmly asked the person not to contact me again. I then sent a letter to IC Systems address on the internet : I.C. System, INC. XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, MN XXXX One week later, I received another phone call from them. The same result. Two weeks later ( today ) I receive another call ( from a XXXX ) in the middle of my work day. They gave me no information about what they are calling about, and are rude, intrusive and demanding and, moreover, calling a restricted number for emergencies only.

I received a notification from my XXXX account on XX/XX/XXXX that my score dropped due to a collection agency who purchased the debt from XXXX , attempting to collect a debt of {$420.00}. I do not have a contract or know who they are or why they are trying to collect this debt that has been settled with XXXX and myself. They first tried to collect {$470.00} on XX/XX/XXXX and lost XXXX points, I was able to dispute it through the XXXX app and it disappeared for a month or XXXX, then it showed up today XX/XX/XXXX and I lost XXXX points. They are now attempting to collect {$420.00}. Which again is inconsistent with the original said debt. This debt has been settled between myself and XXXX, however they are not in contact with the debt collectors who are attempting to collect and can not intervene to stop the collection of this false debt. Attempting to remove this myself working with XXXX has led to me needing to report this to CFPB so that my credit is no longer impacted with a bad debt that is untrue.

About a year ago, I noticed a ( what I thought to be ) fraudulent delinquent account on my formerly perfect credit report. It was from XXXX XXXX, who I have n't been a customer with since I moved from XXXX to XXXX 6 years ago. I later learned that it was because the cable XXXX had been in my name, and my ex 1 ) Never fully put it in his name, and 2 ) Never turned in the modem when he moved to another location in XXXX last year. I contacted him, he turned it in, XXXX XXXX confirmed ( I 'm sure they have logs on it ), and it was removed off my credit report. I checked my report last night, and low and behold, there 's ANOTHER overdue account from XXXX XXXX that is listed as OPEN and has been charged off to a creditor for a measly {$180.00}. I 'm not exactly sure what 's going on this time, but this is NOT my debt as nothing else was in my name with XXXX XXXX. Perhaps it actually is a fraudulent account, or maybe the debt collector made a mistake, but regardless, I have no responsibility in paying this.

This all started when my wife was opening new service in XX/XX/2022 from XXXX for our new address. When I spoke to a representative, they stated I owe {$980.00} for service in Georgia USA. I explained we don't live in Georgia nor have we in the past. I gave the representative all of my current information as well as my personal information for verification purpose. However the representative stated I still owe for an account I did not open, and this is fraudulent. I asked the representative if they have identification on file and they said yes. They called several times requesting payment and tried to withdraw funds from my credit card for the past amount due from someone in Georgia. Yesterday I received a letter from XXXX. XXXX XXXX stating I owe {$4100.00}. This is illegal and I should not be charged or pay for something I have no knowledge of. I explained this to the representative, however they were not interested in hearing what I had to say. They wanted me to pay for someone's else bill.

I received a notice from .IC. Systems, Inc. stating the XXXX XXXX - XXXX had turned over my account for collection ( # XXXX ). However, I do not have an account with that XXXX so I called them ( XXXX ) and asked for the Fraud Dept. The person I spoke to said that they did not have a Fraud Dept., but should fill out a form on their website. When I went there, one of the first things it asked for was my SSN, Therefore, I left the website and went to the IC System to see what they had. There was a form to fill out for them ( that looked similar to the XXXX XXXX ), asking for my SSN near the beginning. I did not look any further on either form, and decided to contact you instead. They state that I owe {$240.00} ( Principal due : {$190.00} and Collection Charge of {$48.00} ). The address of the IC System is : XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX XXXX, MN XXXX. Their Toll-free # is XXXX. Their " Pay Online '' is XXXX Thank you for any help you can provide in stopping them from trying to scam other senior citizens.

This collections account is completely erroneous. I paid off the XXXX account in question years ago ( XXXX ) when I switched to XXXX XXXX XXXX and they continued to charge me monthly after I had already closed the account. I contacted XXXX and paid the entire balance and was complete on closing this account prior to switching to XXXX XXXX XXXX. After the switch, XXXX made an error and continued to charge me monthly for service when I had already successfully closed the account and paid all balances. Another collection agency related to this erroneous debt tried to maintain a collections account in the amount of {$820.00} ; however, XXXX XXXX XXXX was deleted from my credit report because it was found to be erroneous on XX/XX/XXXX. Now, IC System INC is reporting that I owe a balance of {$820.00} which is false because XXXX and XXXX XXXX XXXX have reported that I do not owe any debts. I do not owe anything to XXXX or I.C. System, INC and this needs to be removed from my credit report immediately.

I looked through the reports and show a creditor I did not recognize ( IC Systems ), IC Systems reported a collection for {$67.00} for a company XXXX XXXX . The collection account was opened in XXXX XXXX , 2017 according to XXXX XXXX and XXXX Credit Reports. I am not aware of this debt as I never received any emails, letters, or phone calls regarding this matter. In addition, there are No additional information as to who the original credit is/was, located, and open account date for this {$67.00} debt. I attempted to contact IC Systems however it is the weekend and holiday weekend therefore communication fail. I am afraid to connect with IC Systems as they may be fraudulent and gain access to personal information.

I recently found out that I have a debt collection on my credit report after a friend ran those reports for me. That being said, it says that I have a balance owed of {$410.00}. However, my final bill dated XX/XX/XXXX, from XXXX XXXX XXXX states that I owe XXXX. The first credit agency that had the collection stated {$240.00} as well. However, when the collection was sold off to another agency - IC systems - the amount had essentially doubled to what is now {$410.00}. My only theory is that they have included equipment that I had previously returned and you will find that tracking number below. I called XXXX XXXX XXXX and they too confirmed that they received that equipment back in XXXX. Below I will attach all the documents pertaining to this - the final XXXX XXXX XXXX bill, tracking number for equipment ( potentially what made the debt increase, but still does not justify why one collection agency had one amount and the other, another amount ), as well as the previous collection agency amount.

When we receive the first bill, the bill was not what was quoted to my wife and I over the phone. As a result we called XXXX and they were unwilling to resolve our issue. As a result, we cancelled both TV and internet service with in the first 30 days. All equipment was returned within after 28 days. The equipment was returned on XXXX/XXXX/XXXX. to the store at the XXXX XXXX in XXXX CA. XXXX has been attempting to collect {$110.00}. These fees are not owed. Now within less the 90 days, XXXX turned this account over to a debt collection company saying that the account was delinquent. Nothing is owed on this account. I attempted to call XXXX with no success. The overall sales process was fraudulent as not everything was disclosed at the time of sale. When both my wife and I were present and asked questions, noting was every mentioned about extra fees.

I had an internet/cable service relationship with XXXX XXXX for roughly 3 years. The service became so poor, including multiple times at which service was out for multiple days- including during my families movie nights and during the XXXX XXXX. They stated my area was prone to frequent outages and there is nothing they can do but try to resolve it as fast as they can. I informed XXXX that the service was not satisfactory and I needed to terminate due to the breach on their part of contract. The service person agreed. I ended my service and returned equipment. 6 months later I was hit with a collections from XXXX XXXX. I contacted XXXX and they said there was a mistake and yet never returned my call, they did say there was a charge after canceling the service that was in the contract- but when I informed them they breached by not providing service they said they would have to get back to me... Instead they sent me to collection. This feels very much like a calculated move to defraud customers.

I called IC Systems and was told they could not help me and I had to get this resolved on my own. 5 minutes later I received a call from IC Systems and a different person was calling me to collect the debt which is not mine. The name they asked for is not me. I advised I had just called them a few minutes prior and was displeased that their company was not going to assist me in getting their error resolved. The woman I spoke to was uninterested and was not very polite nor helpful. XXXXNote : IC Systems appeared on my caller ID numerous times previously however, due to all of the spam and sales calls I receive I never answered their calls. IC Systems never left a message for me to signify who they were calling for or why they were trying to reach the individual they were looking for. The only similarity I have with the person they were looking for is the same first name.

There is a collection on my credit report, the collection agency is I C system for the amount of {$160.00}. It says the supposed account was opened on XX/XX/2020 and it says the original creditor is XXXX XXXX XXXX. I have disputed this claim, but to no avail. Pursuant to 15 USC -1681b I am requesting the form and/or proof of permissible purpose as to how and why any of the the following persons : I C system, XXXX XXXX XXXX, and XXXX, are able to make derogatory reporting to my credit without my written consent? This is a clear violation of the US code and I consider it as identity thief. These private companies posing as fake " bureaus '' have been tricking consumers for years and profiting off their lack of knowledge and the misinformation we have been led to believe. I demand this collection be removed from my credit post haste. Not only is this a violation of the US code, furthermore since I never entered into any agreement or contract with I C system there is no debt or obligation to pay.

I received an alert on my credit report of a collection from IC System for {$440.00} on XX/XX/XXXX. I called them and they didn't have any of my information correct. The rep advised it was from a XXXX account from XXXX from Florida. I did not live in Florida at the time she gave me the dates. They do not have the correct address or any information that is correct. This same account was with XXXX that I opened a complaint about XX/XX/XXXX case number XXXX with CFPB. XXXX must have sold this debt to IC systems. I do not own that account. This is something that I am extremely unfamiliar with and there has been absolutely no communication about this account to me as they have the wrong person. They are saying it's from XXXX, which was XXXX/XXXX and I have had service with them in XXXX and don't owe them anything. This needs to be removed from my credit report or they need to provide proof of me signing up for services with a contract or something in writing because I do not owe them anything.

The motorcycle accident took place XX/XX/2019. The only level 1 trauma center close was XXXX XXXX on XXXX XXXX XXXX in XXXX. XXXX XXXX is in my insurance network and my fiance called to confirm that our stay there was covered. My insurance company told her that because the accident resulted in life threatening injuries that any and all treatment inside of the hospital regardless of the provider on call would be covered. The XXXX XXXX billing department billed as they normally would and the insurance company declined to pay certain bills as a result of the bill coding. We spoke with the insurance company and as long as XXXX XXXX changed the billing codes and resubmitted everything the insurance company would then pay. This was about 22-23 months ago and to date there has been no resolve to the past due medical bills. My attorneys office as well as my fiance were unable to get responses from XXXX XXXX regarding these and they have been left unpaid as a result. Thanks again for everything.

Dates are blurry due to it being some time ago and having bad memory. Moved with my ex partner to an apart on XXXX XXXX. For some reason he couldnt get the internet connection, so it was put under my name. Everything was paid on time. Until the end of our lease. His behavior was getting worse, he ended kicking out the house. Lease ended and I was never allowed backed in. I thought he paid for the wifi and returned the box. Couples of month later the calls began. I let them know I no longer lived there and had no way to get in and return the box. Month later its now it collections bc the last payment is as never made even though it was pulled out of my bank account bc it was auto payments. The box was never returned even though I let my ex partner know. The calls were very frequent at least four times a week, this went on for three years until they report it on my credit score. I made a dispute but it was tossed. I have information on my ex partner if its needed. Time line is XXXX XXXX XXXX

XXXX, i spoke with a representative on XX/XX/2017 regarding an old account. Th I asked how much was the equipment fee. I was told the equimpment fee was XXXX ; i said i no longer use the equipment and would like to return it. XXXX XXXX of IC Systems instructed me to contact XXXX XXXX directly. Upon contact the XXXX XXXX representative XXXX XXXX, looked into my account and stated " the equipment was outdated and would not be accepted '', however my account would be credited the XXXX equipment return fee '' and the account would be updated to reflect the fee - over the weekend. On XX/XX/2017 i called XXXX XXXX back, as i did not see the credit on the account, i was then told - the return date had passed and i would be responsible for the XXXX - the previous representative had given me misinformation. I then quoted the recording which states all calls are recorded for customer service and quality assurance.. they told me they could not honor the misinformation provided by their representative.

Dear Sir/Madame : I am presently residing at Virginia. On XXXX XXXX, XXXX by checking my credit reports, I have learned that an collection amount appeared on my credit reports. I am a XXXX of XXXX, there are XXXX of XXXX of XXXX having the same name and the person who is responsible for that account is NOT me. I have no knowledge of the identity of the person who is responsible for the mentioned account and I do not understand as to why that collection account appeared on my credit report. I realized that collection is for XXXX XXXX which is a power company in XXXX XXXX. I have been living in Virginia since XXXX and this account was established in XXXX in XXXX ( it appeared to be an electric bill ). Clearly, I have nothing to do with this electric bill. I am greatly upset about that account since it caused my credit rating tarnished. I am requesting for your help in restoring my excellent credit rating and that delinquency reported to the Credit rating companies be removed. Many Thanks.

They are claiming to be collecting for XXXX XXXX. But I can not get XXXX XXXX to tell me how much they owe as a matter of fact the amount had just changed at the beginning of XXXX. I called for 3 days straight I called eight different representatives two of them being management and the two management ladies actually argued with each other they said one was wrong the other said the other is wrong you know they went back and forth like that then the other six agents told me different amounts that I owe and every time I contact XXXX they give me a new amount I have no idea how much I owe them and they have been allowed to drag my credit down twice I see systems has because the first time they did it they put just some off the wall amount that XXXX told them The second time XXXX updated here at the beginning of XXXX and IC systems put the new updated amount and they were able to drag my credit down again through XXXX so that's twice they've got to do that I think they need to be removed

I received an alert to credit report to discover a collection agency by the name of ICU Systems listing a debt for {$110.00}. I am extremely upset. I never received anything from this letter, just a shocker to see it listed on my credit report. I tried to resolve this with XXXX XXXX XXXX. My issue was that XXXX XXXX XXXX was charging me for services in which I did not have with them. I tried to produce the documents showing that I was receiving service with XXXX during the time XXXX XXXX XXXX was billing me. XXXX made an error and instead of porting the phone number, they assigned me another phone number for my landline service and internet. So, I did not have XXXX XXXX XXXX during the period in which they were charging, therefore not owing XXXX XXXX XXXX. I am asking this company to remove this debt from my credit report. It is not a valid debt, nor did I have the opportunity to speak with this company before seeing this debt posted on my credit report to inform them of the situation.

IC systems has been repeatedly calling my phone number provided in previous questions and have informed me of having a file placed with them by a health provider and have asked me to confirm my information, they then give me a partial address and ask if this is correct, I ask what it is regarding and they refuse to answer my questions, they then kept pushing for my personal information such as social security number- I do not give it until I can verify what IC systems is calling about- they then repeat that they wont discuss the " file '' until I provide personal information, I then ask what exactly it is regarding and that I will not volunteer that information until I am provided a reason for their call, they then hang up on me and will not answer my questions. This feels like an absolute scam in refusing to discuss the reason for their call until I provide personal information. They say the file originated from a health care provider, however we have no outstanding balances anywhere.

I received notification from IC Systems that I supposedly owed this debt to XXXX. I sent them a letter disputing the debt in XX/XX/XXXX. I asked them to send verification of the debt. I filed a complaint with CFPB in XX/XX/XXXX regarding the debt. I received a validation notice from IC Systems in XX/XX/XXXX. The notice included the bill from XXXX. The bill references that in XX/XX/XXXX I supposedly lived at XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX, Florida XXXX. I have proof that I DID NOT live that I NEVER lived at that address. I am filing another complaint with IC Systems in XX/XX/XXXX. I will send another certified letter to IC Systems indicating that the verification documentation is NOT accurate. My next step is to involve an attorney. The debt is NOT mine. I never had an account with XXXX under the address that they are proposing. I have not lived in XXXX for over 25 years. This is not my debt. This is a product of stolen identity. Beyond name there is no other verification that this is my debt.

I did not receive any phones. Two months later in XX/XX/XXXX I started receiving a XXXX bill. I called them and told them I Didnt get any phones. I was told that they verified I had in fact not gotten any phones and they would close the account and I would not get any more bills. In XX/XX/XXXX I saw XXXX on my credit report for XXXX so again I called them. They said that no I did not get the phones and they took it off my credit report for 6 months. Then in XX/XX/XXXX it was back on my credit report. I repeatedly called XXXX and every time was told that no I Didnt get any phone and they would get it off my report.

In XXXX XXXX, I switched cell phone carriers from XXXX to XXXX. After becoming a XXXX customer, I was eligible for the switch promo XXXX was offering new customers. This meant that new customers could submit their final bill from former carrier and XXXX would allot for the payoff. I contacted XXXX several times for the final bill they never did comply. XXXX XXXX, 60 days past which made me ineligible for the switch promotion pay off. Of which time XXXX turns my account over to collections, ( I. C. System, inc. ), who begins reporting this account to all three credit bureaus and is currently still reporting. Again I contacted XXXX several times for final statement of my bill to submit to XXXX for payoff. XXXX never sent me a final document ; email or hard copy. XXXX has since dealt away with the matter. They 've received payment for turning the account over to the I. C. System collection agency, & I 'm now left with the negative reports against my credit through no fault of my own!!

I received a bill 3 years after a XXXX was performed, which I paid out of pocket for from XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX. The date of XXXX was XX/XX/XXXX and I received a bill for the first time in the beginning of XXXX. I went back and forth with them, but they kept telling me to call my insurance, except my insurance kept saying to call them. Now, it is impossible to get anyone to answer the phone in the billing department of XXXX XXXX to even dispute this issue. THis is showing up on my credit now and causing a derogatory remark which is hurting my credit. I have left numerous messages and called dozens of times without a return call. I started to research and found that this is something they do a lot via XXXX and everyone is saying the same thing via XXXX reviews. This is not acceptable. This company is banking on it not being possible to reconcile 3 years prior and forcing people to pay money that they didn't owe because they don't want a ding on their credit. This is WRONG.

I have written them several letters since XX/XX/2016 demanding that they comply with the Fair Dept Collection Practices Act and the Fair Credit Reporting Act by ( 1 ) providing me a contract or bill with my signature on it as follows : " I am requesting validation, made pursuant to the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act. Please note that I am requesting validation ; that is competent evidence bearing my signature, showing that I have ( or ever had ) some contractual obligation to pay you. '' They sent me a computer printout of a bill, but nothing with my signature on it. They are in violation of the Fair Dept Collection Practices Act and the Fair Credit Reporting Act by claiming I owe money and they have no document bearing my signature wherein I allegedly authorized these charges. They are reporting this fraudulent claim to the credit bureaus as a valid debt, yet they are unable to validate the debt.

I have not had a XXXX account since early XX/XX/2012. I do not live in XXXX anymore I have been in XXXX since this time. I received a call from some company giving me a reference number and saying I was going to be served papers at my home and work if I didnt call to straighten the matter out, and I could call #, and use reference # they gave me and speak directly to the charging party. So since they have been harassing me for what seems years, I called. The rude lady on the phone, when I asked her for details told me I have to go down the hall to the attorneys office to get the back up. Uh, no you dont, i proceeded to tell her that if they were reputable she would have the info on the screen, and that they are scammers, she told me not to tell her how to do her job and hung up on me. I havent heard anything since. I do not believe this debt to be mine just based on the simple fact that the amount doesnt resonate nor does a XXXX account, I live in XXXX we do not have XXXX here.

In XXXX my previous XXXX account was paid in full without my authorization in the amount of {$1800.00} which were my school funds that I needed at the time to survive as a student. I spent unnecessary time filing various disputes and both times they where removed from my credit report and came back with a higher balance than before. The amount went up to {$1900.00}. This account has been sold to I.C. System, INC which was removed from my credit and then it was put back on my credit with XXXX XXXX which was removed again and then was sold again to I.C. System, INC with the higher amount of {$1900.00}. This happened to me during the global pandemic and this is still on my credit profile as a collection with a status of- Seriously past due date assigned to attorney, collection agency, or credit grantor 's internal collection department. I have attached ; -my XXXX bank statement that shows the unauthorized payment taken out via XXXX, - XXXX dispute letter verifying this account

I received a letter today XX/XX/2021 from IC System where they claimed I owed {$45.00} to XXXX. I've checked my XXXX account and there's no {$45.00} DUE. I verified that by contacting XXXX and they verified that there was no such amount due. My XXXX monthly bill is paid automatically. I checked all those payments and none of them failed to process OK. The letter from IC System has the following address of XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX. There web address is www.icsystem.comXXXX. When I tried that link, my browser timed out. So I wasn't able to connect. This letter has a payment return address of XXXX, XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX. Note the difference in the XXXXox address for the company mailing address ( XXXX ) and the return payment address ( XXXX )! They may have made a mistake on the company mailing XXXX. XXXX number. All my research points to this letter being a SCAM. I've contacted XXXX to advise that they warn their customers of this SCAM.

I was then informed that I needed additional testing at the cost of {$500.00} for an at-home test to XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX. I agreed to the price and went ahead with the test. I waited for the results and never heard back from the Dr . I called for the results and never got a return phone call.

Hi I checked my credit report as I am about to apply for a new apartment and saw these collections on my report which I do not recognize at all nor ever had any business with these companies they claim to represent. I have called and asked for information but they said that they can not find my information in their database but they are still reporting it on my credit report which is affecting my ability to move into my new place. I have submitted disputes with credit bureaus to no avail and I have requested debt validation from this company and they have failed to provide me with ANY proof or any response. It has passed the timeframe from when they were supposed to respond more than once and I feel they are ignoring me at this point. I just want this removed from my reports as this does not belong to me if it did I don't mind paying it and resolving it but they won't give me any information. It is frustrating dealing with ic systems and I hope you guys can help! Thank you!

Account with XXXX XXXX was removed and closed from my credit report on XXXX by XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX Fraudulent debt was sold to new collector I.C System, INC. Date was opened on XX/XX/XXXX but didn't appear on my credit until XX/XX/XXXX. This account is identity theft.

We purchased and transferred service to XXXX for cellphones. They assured us we had service in our home town area. After using it for a while, it seemed to go in and out. I spoke with them SEVERAL times regarding this. After speaking with a manager, the manager informed me that we could be let out of our contracts due to our area being a bad spot and XXXX not offering service there. We switched companies and now they are charging us for these contracts that I was promised would be released. I do not owe this money. I have fought with them for years over it and then they placed it in collections and it is on my credit. I have disputed it as well through my credit agencies and they refuse to acknowledge that I do not owe this money. They 100 % gave me that option, I took it to have phones that work for our business and work, and now I have this showing and affecting our credit. I would like this to be canceled from their systems and the debt removed from our credit reports.

I asked that they provide me with the agreement showing that the client grants them the authority to collect the alleged debt, an agreement that bears the signature of the alleged debtor where they agreed to pay the creditor, name and address of the alleged creditor, amount of the alleged debt, verification that the debt was assigned or sold to a collector, complete accounting of the alleged debt and the name and address of the binding agent in case legal action becomes necessary. The letter was sent by certified mail and per USPS it shows delivered on XX/XX/XXXX. ( The tracking number is XXXX ). As of today, XX/XX/XXXX, I have not received any sort of reply to my request for validation. From my understanding the company must immediately delete the reporting of this alleged debt to the three credit bureaus as they did not comply with my rights.

I was contacted by I.C. Systems, Inc., a debt collection service regarding an unpaid XXXX bill in the amount of {$2300.00} for a XXXX XXXX. I do not know who this person is and is not me and after explaining to I.C. Systems, Inc., this was not me, they said they were aware of this and demanded I pay anyway. I was told I was chosen because they thought I would give in and pay and had good credit even though I was not XXXX XXXX. Further, the bill was not even for a state that I have ever lived in and I have never had a XXXX account. They did not care and threatened me with damaging my credit by notifying the credit bureaus and that they stated they knew they could not sue me as I could prove my identity. All calls stopped after I refused to pay for some other unknown party and they marked my credit report. I tried to dispute but they refuse to remove even knowing that this is not my debt nor anyone I have ever known or met in my life. This is true abuse of their position.

My husband and I applied to refinance our home. In the credit report, they advised that there was a collection for a debt for XXXX thru IC Systems for {$1500.00} that I needed to take care of. I contacted the company, IC Systems, and the representative told me I needed to pay them as XXXX reported the debt as unpaid. I needed to contact the previous debt collection agent, XXXX XXXX, XXXX. I contacted XXXX XXXX and they were absolutely NO HELP. Representative told me that they reported the debt paid to XXXX and it wasn't their problem. In the interim, IC Systems continues to contact me stating that the debt is still owed to them. I have sent the receipts from XXXX XXXX to XXXX Credit Reporting Service to show that the debt was paid and to remove from my credit. IC Systems refuses to remove this debt from my credit - they insist it isn't their problem. Despite having receipts showing debt is paid - neither company will assist in getting this debt removed from my credit.

On XX/XX/2021 I filed a complaint about the actions of I C system and the fact that they communicated with a relative of mine in regards a debt that they are trying to collect. I also complained that as data furnishers they failed to provide the CRAs with 100 per cent accurate information which was listed on my credit file. These are violations of my rights as a consumer and are very injurious to my financial health. I C System sent me a letter ( see attached ) stating that as a result of my dispute they will cease all communications as well as any collection activity. They did not cease collections. In fact the very letter in which they stated they would cease collections had a request for payment and they are also still reporting this debt to the CRAs. Its my understanding that credit reporting is an attempt to collect a debt or at lease to coerce consumers to pay debt. I C Systems has not kept their word as to their debt collection and continues to violate my rights.

IC Systems Collection agency reported a alleged medical debt of {$1400.00} to the credit reporting agency from XX/XX/XXXX I received a credit alert. I contacted the collection agency on XX/XX/XXXX and question the debt and why I was not notified in writing, which the letter was then sent a week after my telephone. I have repeatedly verbally ask the collection agency to validate this debt by sending me documentation and not just a itemized bill. I asked that it can be sent either from them OR the original creditor directly to me due to any HIPPA laws. I have called to follow up on several occasions.Dates of contact were XX/XX/XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX. I kept getting the same response " the original creditor has not responded ''. I sent a electronic request via IC Systems Collections website to dispute on XX/XX/XXXX, again no information was sent and I lastly sent a certified letter on XX/XX/XXXX. This is becoming so overwhelming and is also effecting my credit score.

XXXX XXXX Re : IC Systems Inc acct. # XXXX and acct. # XXXX Dear IC Systems XXXX , I have never received any written correspondence from this company. IC systems reinserted a collection to my credit reports with XXXX, XXXX, and XXXX that results from crime ( s ) that have taken place. This is invalid. I didn't received any services or goods from the original creditor. However, I am still held responsible for this debt. You also have violated the FAIR DEBT COLLECTIONS ACT by adding a collection to my credit reports without my knowledge. Furthermore, you are also in violation of the FAIR CREDIT REPORTING ACT by reporting inaccurate information to data furnishers XXXX, XXXX, and XXXX. You were froward copies of an FTC Identity theft report and a sworn copy of an identity affidavit. Still you fail to comply with laws you are legally binded to adhere to. I am forced to led to lead to legal actions with IC Systems if this debt isn't removed. Thank you, XXXX XXXX XX/XX/1986

This complaint is in reference to I.C. Systems, Inc. This debt has been sold multiple times and each new company reports the account to my credit with the date that they purchased it, which is incorrect. This bureau can see that I have reported this debt as fraud on XX/XX/XXXX. The original date that this account went into arrears was in XXXX. Yet, it is reported to my credit with a date of XX/XX/XXXX. This is significantly infringing on my 7-year window. The time doesn't restart just because that's when they purchased the debt. Further, I have provided XXXX with a police report and shown that the account was a fraud committed against me when one of their own employees stole my information and added lines to my account without my knowledge. However, they have determined that just because I knew the individual that it could not be fraud, which is absurd. People commit crimes against people they know all the time. The amount of the debt is currently listed as {$3800.00}.

What continues to happen is that an old collection from XXXX XXXX XXXX ( which I have no knowledge of ), keeps transferring from agency to agency, who then illegally " re-age '' the debt and place the debt back on my credit report as if it is new. Firstly, the debt, from my recollection, first appeared as much as 7-9 years ago. This alone makes the debt beyond the stature of limitations for collection. This re-aging has occurred before and I had to take steps to have the item removed, only to have it re-appear on XX/XX/20. Previously, the debt appeared under " XXXX XXXX XXXX '', among others. Please take action to notify the company that such re-aging actions are illegal under FCRA, FTC and CFPB laws. This latest instance has lowered my credit scores by nearly 90 points. I receive repeated attempts daily from various area codes but rarely a message is left. This appears to be a {$100.00} debt as reported and these companies are freely and repeatedly violating the laws

There is a negative credit report due to an alleged 10+ year old XXXX XXXX overdue bill of {$550.00}. I have not had a XXXX account in over 10+ years minimum. Ive tried resolving with XX/XX/XXXX directly via phone and online and also with XX/XX/XXXX and XX/XX/XXXX with no success. This alleged overdue balance is over 10 years old, minimum. This is ludicrous that an alleged balance that is over 10+ years has just recently been placed on my credit report. It severely past the statute of limitations and with any research this can be verified. I have not received any literature or a " Validation Letter '' regarding this for clarification or to directly dispute/resolve with XX/XX/XXXX The credit report on XX/XX/XXXX and XX/XX/XXXXis under the company of IC Systems and was opened XX/XX/2019 and as mentioned is already on my credit report and has already impacted my life negatively. I am also contacting the other Federal and State corresponding departments to file reports.

As per bankruptcy case number XXXX, XXXX was listed as a debtor as there were " lease payments '' on a cellular device. The phone number associated with this account is XXXX. I have returned the device and paid for usage. Seven times over the last six months, I tried to reach out to XXXX to resolve this matter. Each time, XXXX assured me that the account was closed and " would have '' a zero balance. XXXX did not object, nor attend any debtors meetings. I am still receiving daily calls from IC Systems demanding payment and this debt collector has placed a collection account on my credit report. XXXX now indicates I owe a balance due to a broken lease agreement which was listed in the bankruptcy. No one seems competent at neither XXXX nor IC Systems to resolve this matter. Therefore, as a last resort, I am reaching out to CFPB. Your prompt assistance is greatly appreciated. " XXXX '' with employee ID XXXX was the last person I spoke to regarding this account with XXXX.

The Fair Credit Reporting Act ( 15 U.S. Code 1681 ) says ( 1 ) The banking system is dependent upon fair and accurate credit reporting. Inaccurate credit reports directly impair the efficiency of the banking system, and unfair credit reporting methods undermine the public confidence which is essential to the continued functioning of the banking system. So whenever there is a violation under the FCRA, it impairs the efficiency of the banking system. This is a violation of my privacy with my consumer report, since I control what is listed and what is not. In the event that any accounts are reported without my written consent, that is considered identity theft. This is a violation of both 15 U.S. Code 1681b ( 2 ) and 15 U.S. Code 1681c-2. This leads way to civil liability against the credit reporting agency for negligent and willful noncompliance under 15 U.S. Code 1681n, which allows for {$1000.00} per violation, for account listed without my expressed written consent.

I received a letter from I C System stating that I owe a XXXX bill 7years ago. I received the letter 2 weeks ago. I reached out the XXXX and the company said they didn't have an account under my name. I told the representative I did owe a bill and that a collection agency reached out to me and it was paid in XXXX.I called my bank hoping they can track the payment but they only go back as far as 6 years. Being that XXXX collection was not on my credit report, the company was paid. I C System didn't give me 30 days to rectify the problem with the account that was issued to me. This company posted this account to my credit report. I would like to see the original bill of {$680.00} stating I owe. I called and spoke to the I C System operator she stated if I paid another collection agency they didn't close my account out. I would definitely like to see the original bill saying I owe this amount since its going through so many agencies. Thank you for your help in advance.

I got an alert from XXXX XXXX stating that I had a new collection pop up. I then got a letter from IC System stating that I owe {$4900.00} for a XXXX XXXX. I called IC system and they informed me that this is a XXXX XXXX for an address in XXXX, PA. I told them that I never lived there nor know anything about the address. IC System asked me to provide proof that I lived elsewhere during that time frame and and I mailed that it. they then asked me to file a police report and I have done that too. This negative mark has drastically dropped my credit score and has been a complete defamation of character. I regularly use my credit for my business and this has stopped me from doing so. The incident number from my police report filing is XXXX. The XXXX XXXX police dept does not release the actual police report but just the incident number and i will upload proof of that. IC Systems will not remove the negative reporting even though I took every step that they asked of me.

1 ) On XX/XX/2021 XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX. refused to code it for the insurance company as a XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX I made multiple attempts to have him change the coding, but instead he sent me to the credit agency for collection. I made it clear to both XXXX XXXX and ICS systems credit agency that the billed amount was in dispute because of the improper coding. Nevertheless ICS kept hounding for the money. I send them a check for an amount that I thought was appropriate with a restrictive endorsement stating that endorsement constitutes a satisfaction of the disputed amount. I consulted a lawyer in XXXX who indicated that the restrictive endorsement should satisfy the debt. 2 ) In summary ICS has harassed me and damaged my credit over an amount that is in dispute. I sent a check with a restrictive endorsement that they cashed and they continue to pursue for the balance.

A few years back, I ordered my credit report and noticed a collections. I disputed with XXXX XXXX XXXX/debt collector and advised this was not my account. I was advised that the account was in XXXX name. Well, I have never heard of nor used a fraudulent name. I asked them to provide me with verification of the negative item. Nothing was provided so they removed it from my credit. Fast forward to XX/XX/2021. I got a credit alert advising a collections has been added by IC System. Since I am a victim of identity theft and have taken necessary steps to protect my credit along with filing a police report in the past, XXXX XXXX XXXX was unable to provide accurate information. Unfortunately, I am having to dispute this again which is causing unnecessary XXXX and time. I don't understand how XXXX XXXX XXXX would sell a fraudulent account.. I am requesting a copy of the original contract between myself and the original creditor and original application with my signature.

I see both I.C. Systems and XXXX on my credit report, even though XXXX sold my debt. XXXX. XXXX says I owe them more than {$2000.00}, and they claim XXXX passed on the debt to them. But when I check my credit report, XXXX is still there with a balance around {$850.00}. Also, XXXX sold the debt to someone who's bothering me with demands for payments that are double what XXXX claims I owe. I want to emphasize that I've never been with XXXX or signed anything. I'm confident I'm a victim of identity theft, and I'm dealing with disputes with other companies and banks because of this identity theft issue. I urgently need to see a detailed bill explaining why I owe more than {$2000.00}. I'm not satisfied with a bill that looks like it was made up, just stating that someone owes money. I want to see signatures. It's important to note that XXXX can't sell the debt and continue to have it on my credit report with a different amount than what the collectors are asking for.

I received a collection notice for {$590.00} from I.C. System for services rendered from XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX to an address in the state of California. I have never lived in the state of California. Nor do I know anyone in the state of California. I have never given anyone permission to use my information to open an account. For some reason this collection account keeps getting passed along to a new company at least once a year. I have spoken with I.C. System directly and informed them that this is not my bill. I have also filed an Identity Theft Affidavit with XXXX various times in the past to no avail. It appears to get cleared up with the present collection agency, then resurfaces with another collection agency. Im not sure why XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX would keep passing this information on to other collection agencies when I have conveyed to them that this is not my bill and I have never lived in the state of California. I just want this to get cleared up.

Since the end of XXXX and early XXXX I have periodically received notices of collection attempts from XXXX through various agencies. Each time I have disputed the information with XXXX, through the credit bureaus, and to the collection agency. The account which XXXX has sent to collections never belonged to me and they confirmed that. It is still unclear how my social security number was attached to the account in question but the name on the account and the address associated with it was entirely unrelated to me. While I did use XXXX 's services in the past, I have proof that all accounts were closed at my request and entirely paid in full. I have not used XXXX since XX/XX/XXXX/XX/XX/XXXX. The collection mark has been removed and then re-placed multiple times resulting in drastic swings in my credit score as well as causing me hours of repetitive work fighting to remove the derogatory mark off of my credit report. Please contact for further details and proof.

XXXX has attempted to collect XXXX for an account that Ive explained was opened fraudently. Every six months to a year a different collection agency is assigned and the debt is reported as a collection. I filed a complaint XX/XX/21 and XX/XX/21 about this debt and each time it was removed from my credit report. The last collection company, XXXX that advised they would not pursue the debt sent me a XXXX Fraud letter and advised me to complete it and send to XXXX. I did so and heard nothing further until today when I received a credit alert that XXXX is back at it again. There has been no communication via telephone or USPS from the most recent collection agency I.C. Systems. Not only does this violate my rights as a consumer this is pure harassment. Ive done everything in my power to resolve this and XXXX continues. I have no knowledge of this account, I never made one payment to this account and could not tell you the phone number/s associated with this account.

in XXXX i changed cell phone carriers. i was told i had to pay {$750.00} for a device and turn another device in and this would cancel my service with the then carrier. i complied with this request. on 4 separate occasions i went to the mobile carrier to turn the final piece of equipment. i was told after the 4th try that the store would not accept the device and that a box would be sent to my home. once i received the box, i could return it to the carrier. this never happened. when i spoke with the company yesterday i was told that i owed them over {$2000.00}. i asked what the {$2000.00} was for and a very rude man told me that i had no options and that i either needed to pay the money or risk my credit being affected. i followed al the proper procedures for cancelling the service. i could not return the phone because they would not accept it. i am asking for clarification on what the charges are for and how we can come up with an amicable settlement/solution.

I spoke with a representative regarding this account after I received a letter in the mail and called and told them I didn't recognize it she told me she would take care of it for me and apologized for the inconvenience it had caused me dealing with the idenity theft. Ive had an issue with false credit cards and inquiries on my credit that I was able to resolve with multiple issues other credit companies in the past, as well as a false XXXX account in my name with the XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX which I can provide documentation for proving identity theft.

I recently met with my Realtor regarding my purchasing a new home. After pulling my credit report. I was informed of a collection from IC Systems. I saw this previously and disputed. This collections with XXXX. To no avail, as always XXXX sided with the Credit collection agency. Without receiving any proof of validity. So I went looking for any paperwork. I never signed an agreement or authorization with XXXX, or IC Systems.I also, did not sign an agreement of recurring monthly payments with XXXX or IC Systems. I was asked if I 'd be interested in signing up for Optimum Wellness Plan. That was it.I was charged for a Wellness Plan.I was charged for my 1st month payment.I was never given or received a copy of a signed agreement, nor was I informed that I ' d be charged a monthly recurring fee. I wouldnt have agreed to that. Seeing as I never utilized the Wellness Plan.I received the attached document that I was given. No signature b/w myself or XXXX or IC System.

Recently while conducting a monitor of my credit report I discovered that I C SYSTEM COLLECTIONS has furnished some items that have unverified information. I believe under the Fair Debt Collections Practices Act, I have the right to request that you allow me to validate the alleged debt. I am aware that there is a debt from I C SYSTEM COLLECTIONS but I am unaware of the amount due and your bill does not include a breakdown of any fees. Additionally, I am allowed under the HIPAA law [ HEALTH INSURANCE PORTABILITY AND ACCOUNTABILITY ACT OF 1996 ], to protect my privacy and medical records from third parties. I do not recall giving permission to XXXX XXXX XXXX to release my medical information to a third party. I am aware that HIPAA does allow for limited information about me but anything more than XXXX XXXX XXXX is to only be revealed with the patients authorization, therefore my request is two fold and as follows, Validation of Debt, and HIPAA authorization.

The original creditor is XXXX XXXX XXXX. My daughter was seen at XXXX XXXX on XX/XX/XXXX. I provided all insurance information which was XXXX XXXX XXXX during that time with an effective date of XX/XX/XXXX. The representative did not update her account with that information and caused an insurance denial on the XXXX policy that was termed in XX/XX/XXXX. I provided the updated insurance to XXXX the day of the visit, XXXX XXXX XXXX after receiving a bill and IC System ( collection agency ). This information apparently was still not updated. I spoke with XXXX in the billing department for XXXX XXXX XXXX. He was not able to pull up any account with my daughter 's name on it, only my name and nothing with that date of service. I haven't been to that hospital in 10 years. There are two issues, no account with my daughter 's information and the insurance information provided on multiple occasions and now this is showing on my credit report due to their negligence.

I asked XXXX XXXX XXXX to let me out of my contract. I could no longer continue my service it was not working correctly. I had no choice but to turn my phone in and switch. XXXX paid XXXX XXXX XXXX. XXXX XXXX XXXX charged me for my phone that I turned in and was paid for. I have disputed this debt. I have tried to speak to them. I finally got the collection removed from my credit report. Only to have it added 2 months later. I was never notified in advance of the account being added. they are in violation of the reinsertion law. This is effecting my ability to obtain a mortgage. I do not owe this money.

On XX/XX/XXXX, I checked my credit on XXXX and realized there was a derogatory mark on there. It is from XXXX XXXX XXXX and the collections agency is IC System. There are two separate accounts that have been opened in my name that I have not opened. The first account was opened XX/XX/XXXX and the second account opened XX/XX/XXXX. I received a copy of the signed agreements and they are both signed in my name but it is not my signature. I have never owned cats or stepped foot into a XXXX XXXX XXXX. I have contacted both the collections agency and the pet hospital. The pet hospital told me to contact the credit bureau. Apparently from the explanation at the pet hospital, a wellness agreement was signed so that they could direct debit monthly from the persons bank account. Since the bank account information had to be obtained for the person to sign the agreement, it does not make sense how they could put it on my credit report when it is not from my bank account.

I 've received XXXX calls from people at IC System named XXXX and XXXX, and in both cases, I was asked to verify who I am and my address. But when I asked who was calling and why, they would only tell me that they were with IC Systems and that they were calling about a " business matter. '' When I asked what the " business matter '' was about, they refused to tell me more until I verified my address. They both became increasingly indignant, and contunined to refuse to tell me what kind of company they were calling from and why they were calling. Not once did they mention that they were calling to collect on a debt. In XXXX case, I told the caller that not disclosing what the call was about was illegal, and the caller, XXXX, claimed that it was legal, saying that my information was already public and they just needed to verify it before disclosing why they were calling. It was only after I looked up IC System that I learned they were a debt collection agency.

A 10-year old XXXX XXXX debt was removed from my credit report over a year ago. All of a sudden I get an alert saying it is added back on a year and a half later by IC Systems and the dates of open and close they reported are extremely misleading ( saying opened 2020 ). This would allow them to continue to attempt collections and report the debt for another 7-10years. Ive already disputed the item but this is a Violation of the Fair Credit Reporting Act as well as Fair Debt Collection Practices. This is highly unethical and lawless. I dont know what the statute of limitations is on things like this but I am considering hiring counsel. I have worked hard to clean my credit up. This could also constitute defamation of character since negative remarks such as this look as though I havent already been cleared of this. Especially when it continuously goes away only to pop back up again over a year later. They state it was open XX/XX/2020 and owed {$1300.00}.

I requested that this company validate the debt by asking for certain documents including the following ... agreement with the original creditor that authorizes you to collect on this alleged debt the original contract bearing my signature stating that I have agreed to assume the debt, the debt agreement stating the amount of the debt and interest charges, the complete payment history on this account along with an accounting record of all additional charges being assessed, proof that the company is licensed to collect in my state, which is Alabama and the license number and Registered Agent for my state, which is Alabama. I did not receive documents that validates this debt. In addition, the company is reporting this account differently with all three credit bureaus, which I disputed, and the company verified. Different information with three different companies can not all be accurate, so it is very clear that the company verified inaccurate information.

I have an account with XXXX XXXX during the time after I would make arrangements I would still get calls from someone else that had no idea what the arrangements were this continued or they would change the amount I would pay and my account would default. I assume that they had so many people handling a lot of accounts and really did not know who was in charge in one week I have 7 different representatives contact me with 7 different terms and one rep did not know what the other rep was doing which is really sad. So I finally got one person this I thought well I signed a contract where my debt was {$1500.00} less and we settled for {$4500.00} with payments of {$180.00} per month. I did not hear from them after this so I thought this was the end of that well. I did not sign something and had to redo the contract so hopefully the {$180.00} would come out. Well that did not happen and I ended up being contacted by I.C. Systems Inc saying I owe {$5900.00}

The man on the phone kept asking for personal information, but when I asked him any questions he would only state that it was a personal business matter and could not provide any information until I verified my identity. I hung up on him without getting his name unfortunately. Today ( XXXX/XXXX/2015 ) I got another call from the same number. This time I made sure to get the woman 's name : " XXXX ''. She kept asking me to verify my information, and I kept refusing to verify any information until she told me the name of her company. She said it was " IC Systems ''. I asked for the company 's mailing address and she refused to provide it ( like actually refused! ) unless I would verify my identity. I could n't believe it and incredulously asked if she was really refusing to give me their address so I could send a cease and desist letter. At that point she said she was terminating the call and hung up.

I also received emails from XXXX confirming payment! was received to them I guess. The company still calls me although I am making payments. I had paid off another account with the same company two weeks ago. They can clearly see that I am making payments. I thought they were calling me about another account however it was for a XXXX bill that they do see payments are being made.

My signature was forged on a lease release agreement form. This form was sent to me by the XXXX XXXX group on XX/XX/XXXX to extend the lease beyond my intended moving out date. I was asked to sign this form many times but I declined. After I moved out, the XXXX XXXX group claimed I owed rent for an additional month. I disagreed, as I had never signed this form. They nevertheless assigned a debt collections agency ( I.C. System Inc based in XXXX XXXX MN XXXX ) to collect the supposed debt. When I requested the debt collections agency to verify the debt. they sent me the lease release agreement form. To my shock, they have forged my signature on the form with a date of XX/XX/XXXX next to my name. I can prove in multiple ways that this is not valid. For one, the signature looks nothing like mine. For another, I have email records from XX/XX/XXXX ( after the date that they falsified my signature ) from the XXXX XXXX group requesting me to sign the form.

In XX/XX/2021, I pulled my 3 credit reports and noticed fraud on each report. The debt was fraudulently and erroneously reported on my credit reports. I did not open the accounts and did not authorize anyone to do so on my behalf. This information belongs to someone else, who I have no knowledge. I'm not an existing customer of these organizations. The organizations were contacted via telephone and can not provide any contracts or signed documents with my signatures which can link me to the debt. On XX/XX/2021, I notified each credit bureau of the fraudulent accounts which are unauthorized. The credit reporting agencies have advised me to file this complaint with the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau. Please see the fraudulent accounts and amounts below : Account Name Amount XXXX XXXX {$490.00} XXXX XXXX {$690.00} I C System Inc {$820.00} XXXX XXXX XXXX {$100.00} XXXX - XXXX XXXX {$690.00} XXXX XXXX {$0.00} Thank you for your time and support.

Due the the fact that in the above choices I have to choose from in the above box. My choice is not represented well so I had to pick one because my situation is based on the legal right to operate in the State of Texas as a debt collector and IC System Inc. does n't have the right to collect debt in the State of Texas. I am going to provide you with the Creditors Validation Letter I sent to them, I am going to provide to you the research from the State of Texas Debt Collectors Website to prove they are illegally trying to collect a debt. Finally, I am going to provide the certified mail document showing when they received the Creditor Validation Letter. This is a XXXX Account that never got service by XXXX because at the times of XX/XX/2012 and XX/XX/2012 they was not any service in my area for XXXX. What I am saying is they did n't offer service in my area so they closed the account out but still tried to bill me for an area they did n't service.

I am XXXX XXXX XXXX and I am submitting this complaint myself and there is no third party involved. I believe I am a victim of identity theft. Due to the Pandemic, we have been facing a lot of problems in terms of financial, emotional, and physical aspects. Also, I have been hearing a lot of recent news that the Bureau is having data and system issues. I decided to look at my credit reports from the 3 credit bureaus and found that this I.C. SYSTEM, INC ( Original Creditor : XXXX XXXX XXXX ) was reporting to be negative on XXXX. I have disputed the fraudulent information from my credit report. I have no idea how the theft took place. I also have no knowledge of any suspects. I did not receive any money, goods, or services as a result of identity theft. I have done many attempts to reach out to the Bureau but they failed to give me any results or feedbacks about this concern. Please investigate and remove it from my personal credit file. Thank you.

I closed a broadband account with XXXX when I moved. Their customer service rep did not tell me to return a depreciated modem. They then charged me for the purported value of the equipment. When I contested, they pointed to a clause in their contract to return items, but nothing in the contract explains how to return an item. ( Also keep in mind this was XXXX 2020, when COVID disrupted even traditional practices. ) They ( 1 ) did not ask for the modem to be returned or ( 2 ) explain how to return it. To cover their ineptitude, they have put this bill for a debt that I do not own in debt collection over the past year, through multiple debt collectors. I had informed them that the next collector would lead to a CFPB complaint. They are even now offering a 24 % discounthow kind. Only 76 % on the hook for their incompetence. They are repeatedly trying to use debt collection harassment to get a consumer to cover their own mismanaged operations.

During a security clearance reinvestigation in XX/XX/XXXX, I became aware of a {$400.00} collection action on my XXXX credit report for a debt I do not owe. I had this debt removed from the XXXX report in XX/XX/XXXX and it has reappeared under a different collection agency. My XX/XX/XXXX complaint to XXXX County Office of Consumer Protection and the debt collector response are attached. I notified the new collection agency, IC System, that I do not owe the debt and requested proof of the debt. It responded with a nonsensical letter indicating that it intends to continue attempting to collect the debt. No proof of the debt was provided. My letter to IC System and its response are attached. I complained again to XXXX County Office of Consumer Protection and it sent a letter to the debt collector to which the debt collector has not responded. My XX/XX/XXXX complaint and the Office of Consumer Protection letter to the debt collector are attached.

I had an outstanding balance of {$300.00} due to XXXX XXXX that I was not aware thinking insurance had paid for it. Since I was not aware of this balance, it eventually went to IC System collection. When they called for the very first time, I was informed they were trying to collect a bill for {$400.00}. I told them I was not aware of it and they followed up by providing the statement from XXXX XXXX for {$300.00} plus a XXXX collection fee. I informed them it was unfair to charge me a 35 % collection fee as I was not aware it and it very excessive. I told them I would pay the due amount or at least reduce the fee to a honest amount. They would not here it and told me I had to pay full amount or destroy my credit. Which they did the following month byt reporting a collection item on all XXXX credit bureaus. I am still willing to pay the correct due amount and hoping the negative information be removed from my credit report. XXXX XXXXXXXXXXXX

'' They asked my name, so I repeated my question. They replied, " XXXX. '' I then asked, " With who? '' They replied with, " XXXX with ICSystem. '' I then proceeded to tell them that I did n't know who they were and to put me on the do not call list. Before I was able to say anything else, they cut me off and told me they do not have a do not call list and they 're debt collectors. They then told me that they would n't tell me what for unless I verified I was who they were looking for. I then hung up. I 'm looking for ways to stop them from calling, but my first step was to file a complaint.

There is a collection remark on my credit report from IC Systems on behalf of XXXX XXXX XXXX for {$19000.00}. I never received any notification of this collection until it appeared on my credit report, and I have never held an account with XXXX XXXX XXXX in my name. Our account for the past 10 years has been in my wifes name and has always been paid on time. The collection was apparently filed against me on XX/XX/XXXX, according to my credit report, and as stated I never received notice of the debt from XXXX XXXX XXXX or IC Systems. I was not aware of this collection until XX/XX/XXXX when it appeared on my credit report. After I discovered this collection against me, I filled a dispute with IC Systems on XX/XX/XXXX and still have not heard anything from either company about this debt. This is a collection for an account that I never possessed or had any information on and is affecting my credit for something that is not mine.

When contacting I.C. System Inc. and relaying the correct amount, the customer service agent said they saw the same numbers and had " been given the wrong number '' by XXXX XXXX XXXX. The Debt Collector said they would be adjusting the amount to the correct number and re-issuing the bill. It seems clear they attempted to get more money than what was actually owed until challenged. The medical service was rendered XX/XX/XXXX, the final statement was issued XX/XX/XXXX and the debt collection bill was sent XX/XX/XXXX, the conversations with both parties happened XX/XX/XXXX.

On XX/XX/XXXX, I noticed this collection on my credit report. I called the company that placed the collection. they contacted the the company that place the debt with them. They reported to them that the bill was paid and that I do not owe them any money. I called IC System that the collection is still showing on my credit reports. I received a letter dated XX/XX/XXXX from I C Systems that the debt was paid and that they will no longer pursue collections and the information they reported to the credit agencies ( XXXX, XXXX, XXXX ) will be deleted. I have a copy of the letter. This collection was not removed and I disputed this collection with the credit agency. The credit agency updated the information from IC Systems as accurate. I contacted IC Systems about the collections still showing and verified as accurate. They stated there is nothing they will do or can do to correct this. Please help me resolve this issue. Thank you,

I recently went to the police department to complain and file a report. They asked if before I went further with the report, that I can bring in solid evidence that my identity had been compromised. I then reached out to the bureau 's as well as the original credit numerous times, no documentation provided. Please note, the few times I've reached out it's been in seek of not just an itemized invoice. I then recently sent them my FTC report, it's now the 52nd day and no response. I, unfortunately, did not record the login information and had to update it today. I have no relationship with this collection agency or creditor and this is not my debt. I received no right to dispute, anything! It just appeared on my credit report. I've lived at the same address for 6 years, nothing has come to my home. Full violation of 609 and 823, as well as the FCRA that requires they respond to my FTC affidavit. I say all of this with humility.

This account was deleted after an investigation by the credit bureau and then not a month later was added back onto my credit report under a different collection agency. This was an ongoing headache from XXXX who was over charging me and I tried for XXXX months to get it fixed. They neglected to fix it and hold their end of responsibility. I do not owe this company any amount and would honestly be inclined to sue them myself if this issue isnt resolved soon. I was a great and happy customer for over XXXX years until they unfortunately werent willing to fox the problem they created and it actually resulted in me losing a {$1200.00} device as well as deactivating my account and now Im being charged unfairly.

I have the money to pay my account in full and was Willing to do so but after receiving legal advice, I requested an email or letter in writing stating the XXXX would be paid in full and taken off my credit report. I was told, " we don't do that! ". I explained several times, I was prepared to pay the above amount in full but needed something in writing. I even suggested they send me a simple email with a letter stating the accepted pay off amount and removal of account with all three credit bureaus. Once again, they refused. I can not go against my legal council in this situation and don't understand the apprehension. In addition, they are strongly opposed to my wanting a paper trail by paying with a money order. Once again, I was advised by legal council to not give any bank account information. They are destroying my credit by hitting me with late payments and are unwilling to accept payment in lieu of this simple email.

This is XXXX XXXX XXXX, who is submitting this CFPB complaint myself, and to inform you that there is no third party involved in the process. Regardless of the multiple written requests both the bureaus and collection agency, the unverified account I C SYSTEM ( Original Creditor : XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX ) with the account number XXXX is still reporting on my credit report in violation of Federal Law. The XXXX and XXXX Credit Bureaus failed to comply with the Fair Credit Reporting Act, 15 USC sections 1681i within the time declared by law and continued reporting of UNCONFIRMED information which now, given all my attempts to address it directly with the creditor, as willful negligence and non-compliance with federal statutes. Please reinvestigate the whole information especially the account type, date opened, balance, comments, and payment history. This information seems to be misleading. This will need to be REMOVED asap.

I C Systems has negatively reported {$2600.00} on my credit reports showing this as a new delinquent account. The original creditor is XXXX. I do not recognize the debt but even if the debt were mine, I've been with my current cell phone provider for over 2 years which means the cell phone debt is past the 2 year statute of limitations. At the very most, this debt ( if mine ) should be at least 2 years old on my credit reports. IC Systems just reported it negatively again ( XX/XX/2021 ). They show the account was opened in XX/XX/2021 but I didn't open an account with them. I've asked them to provide me with information on the debt ( once by phone, twice in writing ) and their response was " how are paying this debt today '' and then a letter telling me to get an attorney or something. ( Will try to find letter ). If the debt from XXXX is valid, it is over 2 years old and should be reported as such on my credit report.

XX/XX/XXXX I sent a letter to the 3 major bureaus outlining inaccurate and unverified accounts on my report. It is almost 60 days later and I have not received remedy. The latest credit report I checked still shows that this account is being reported inaccurately and incorrectly, despite that I sent previous dispute letters to your agency. This account is being reported reflecting multiple " violation '' statements. I don't believe the status of this account is accurate. I urge your agency to reinvestigate this account and ensure that correct, fair, and complete reporting is given. I demand proof that you went through all the proper and logical steps that would have been necessary to validate or refute my dispute. If your agency is unable to do so, I demand that this account be deleted from my credit report. IC systems is in violation of consumer rights and reporting false information on public consumer reports.

You guys keep putting new collections on my credit report and the hospital has already told me they pulled them back. So I don't know why they keep doing this but I am tired of continuously fighting this with them. You are in clear violation, especially because we contact you every single time you post it on credit .... because, mind you, you never send a notice for me to dispute it, which is also a violation. But I contact them and fight with them every time and the hospital retracts the bills. I have this all worked out with the hospital and this needs to be deleted and they need to stop putting these on my credit! I am contacting my friend XXXX who is the Assistant Attorney General and I am filing complaints with them also.

I was billed {$85.00} for XXXX XXXX by XXXX XXXX XXXX that were performed for my wife XXXX 's XXXX XXXX on or around XXXX XXXX. I paid the bill through my medical savings account on XXXX/XXXX/XXXX. For some reason the payment was not recorded and before I could resolve the issue with them was sent to collections. IC System have been attempting to collect the {$85.00} from me for the past year. I have talked to IC Systems several times on the phone over the past year and have been unable to resolve the issue even though I have sent them documentation showing that the bill was paid. Every time I talk to them on the phone they post another negative report on my credit score. I know it 's just {$85.00} and I could just repay the bill again but it 's the principle of having paid my bill and still being sent to collections. I would like this resolved and the negative reports taken off my credit score. What can I do?

I reached out to the company I C Systems ( XXXX ) about this alleged debt on my report on XX/XX/2021 and my complaints fell on deaf ears. I've also filed a XXXX complaint on XX/XX/2021 and after that they finally responded by sending me a bill. When i filed a CFPB complaint they said they would mail me information and you closed it but they didn't mail anything. I have been asking them to validate this alleged debt for over 120 days and all they did was send a bill through the XXXX portal not even to me. How can they fail to validate this debt for over 120 days and still report it on my credit report. I know if they can't validate it in 30 days they must delete it off of my report. Well its been 130 days and no proper validation. A bill is not a validation i asked them for the original application that shows the debt is mine but they are playing games and ignoring me. They must delete this information ASAP.

I was in debt with XXXX. On XX/XX/2019 I contacted XXXX to settle my debt. They agreed to settle for {$100.00}. I made sure to receive an email stating they the account was in fact paid in full from the representive prior to disconnecting. Once I received the email, I disconnected. This past week ( XX/XX/2019 ) I received a letter from a new collections agency stating that I still owe the debt to XXXX and that they are trying to collect the funds from me again. I contacted the new collections agency letting them know that I have proof that I do not still owe the funds and that it was paid. I also contacted XXXX with the same information and emailed them a copy of my bank statement along with the email that stated my account was closed in full. The new collections agency stated they can not stop this account from reporting to the bureaus and that XXXX has to pull the account from them to stop further action.

XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX XXXX located at XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, MN XXXX has reported a Collection account in the amount of {$1100.00} showing past due as of XX/XX/2018 on my credit report. I disputed this account with the credit bureau and XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX refuses to remove it from my credit report. I called XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX XXXX to advise the debt belongs to my son at the same address however with a different social security number, I offered my my social security number or my son 's social security number for verification and they stated it wouldn't matter because they don't have a social security number on file to verify. My son 's age is XXXX and my age is XXXX with different social security numbers. I have no other information to give them for verification and really don't think I should have to waste more time on this. This is egregious and I want this debt removed from my credit report immediately.

Credit collection agency " I.C. SYSTEMS '' is DOUBLE-REPORTING an account for {$160.00} on my XXXX credit report. I. C. SYSTEMS did correctly report only one account on my XXXX XXXX credit report, but have taken the illegal liberty to report the same account twice to XXXX XXXX. Such reporting was done within a few days of each other. I disputed the duplicate reporting to XXXX on XX/XX/XXXX and received confirmation number XXXX. However, I.C. SYSTEMS confirmed that both accounts are mine, which is incorrect. Both accounts are NOT mine. Only one account is mine from the original creditor, XXXX/XXXX XXXX XXXX. Again, today, XX/XX/XXXX, I disputed the information with XXXX and received another confirmation number, XXXX. However, as a result of I.C. SYSTEM 'S incorrect reporting, my XXXX credit score nose-dived about 40-50 points, which is COMPLETELY UNACCEPTABLE because it is based on their erroneous error.

Attached is a copy of my credit report provided to me by XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX ), and I ask that focus be put on the collection showing placed by I.C. System, Inc whose phone number is XXXX. Their collection is being reported to both XXXX and XXXX XXXX. They indicate they opened collection on XX/XX/2022 in the amount of {$310.00}. I ask that they confirm the validity of that collection, and I ask that both XXXX and XXXX confirm this validity as well. I also dispute the validity of this XXXX XXXX XXXX charge altogether because during the pandemic, I tried to subscribe to the XXXX & XXXX service. The company had difficulty connecting my service, so I called and let them know after many attempts that I want to forgo service with their company. I did not sign a contract with this company at all during this time.. In conclusion, I was never provided service with XXXX XXXX XXXX and they still charged me.

It will not let me file another complaint using " debt not owed by me '' but I have evidence of IC Systems removing their accounts from my XXXX credit report but failing to do so on my XXXX report. I indicated that I had no knowledge of the debt, because I don't, and they removed the collections account from my credit report. Below are dates from XX/XX/2018, XX/XX/2018, and XX/XX/2018. On XX/XX/2018, all three accounts are shown. On XX/XX/2018, only one is shown. On XX/XX/2018, none are shown. It is illegal for a debt collector to report inaccurate information to one credit bureau and delete collections from another bureau. All information, whether accurate or inaccurate, must be reported the same across all three bureaus. This company will face legal action from myself if not removed 30 days from receipt of this complaint. This debt is not mine, hence why I disputed it, and want it removed immediately.

XXXX refused to remove the item and said so after their " investigation '' was complete. I disputed this item with IC System ( a collection company ) and they have not even acknowledged my complaint. On XXXX I resubmitted my dispute with XXXX and warned both IC System and XXXX of pending legal action I intend to take if this situation is not resolved IMMEDIATELY. The derogatory item was for an unpaid dentist bill ( {$900.00} ) which IS PAID and the account ( my husband XXXX 's ) is IN GOOD STANDING with XXXX XXXX ( merchant ). This item should NEVER have appeared on my credit report in the first place -- and since the item is PAID, this item DOES NOT BELONG IN COLLECTIONS.

In XXXX this agency XXXX XXXX reported this on my credit. After calling and speaking with them letting them know I have no knowledge of this report as the cable they supplied was not my house. They never had my identification or my signature on anything. They removed it. In XXXX they reapplied this same collection onto my credit and I disputed it and got it removed. Now currently once again it is back on being reported. During the time they supplied cable service to an address I was actively ( still XXXX XXXX ) serving in the military in XXXX, then XXXX. Its no way possible I opened an account with XXXX. As soon as I turned XXXX years of age I went away into the XXXX XXXX. At this point its harassment. This round I keep disputing and no one is replying to my letters or my phone calls in the matter they keep mentioning I have to pay. I refuse to pay for a service i never acquired or have any knowledge of.

Up to this point I had not been contacted in any form ( postal mail, email or via telephone ) by I.C. Systems, and when I called the contact number from my credit report, they informed me they were collecting on a debt from XXXX for an account that resides in Illinois. I informed them I do not now, nor have I ever lived in Illinois, and they said there was nothing they could do that I would have to file a fraud claim with XXXX which I have done to resolve the issue. I have not ever resided in Illinois at the service address for the collection account, I.C. Systems did not at any time try to contact me to validate that the debt belonged to me, they just matched my name and took a chance that this account belongs to me which it does not.

There is an old cell phone bill on my credit report from IC Systems. They have not proven to me with a contract with my wet signature that it is indeed my bill or that I have a contract with them and agreed to owe them anything. However, there is a FEDERAL statute of limitations of only XXXX years regarding phone bills and reporting them. The account I did have with the phone company in the past is past the federal statute of limitations. This collection agency is breaking FEDERAL law by refusing to delete this from my report. I have disputed it more then once and they claim valid and verified and refuse to delete and have not shown me any kind of physical proof to back up their claims. As I said cell phone bills are a special case and have a statute of limitations of only XXXX years on a federal level and they are breaking federal law by not removing this. It must be deleted from my report immediately.

XXXX originally charged me {$74.00} for a service last year. I originally disputed this bill on XXXX. ( screenshots of my chat with XXXX attached ). I cancelled my service with them on XX/XX/XXXX and returned the retened equipment, as of that point I could no longer use the service they provided. However, they decided that I had to pay full price for the service that I could no longer recieve. When I disputed the charge they told me it was a subscription and I didn't have a choice. Since then XXXX sent the bill to a debt collector, I.C. System Inc. I have spoken to them multiple times and informed them of the situation. I offered to pay the amount up until the cancelation date if they would consider the debt collected in full. The collector agreed over the phone and accepted payment of {$42.00}. Dispite this, I am still getting letters from the debt collector asking me to pay the remaining balance.

I requested XXXX over 30 days ago. I have not heard from the original creditor or the collection agency regarding this debt. I supplied a copy of my ID, my social security #, and proof of address to all parties. I was never in their facility/hospital/office. I have shown proof of residence as well as tax documents to show my employment was NOT in their area. I want this deleted from my XXXX as they have failed to prove it is my debt. In fact when I call the original creditor they have an entirely different name and social security # listed in the original file. This is what prompted me to send proof of ID and social security number. This is NOT my debt and I want it closed and removed from my XXXX immediately.

We were on an automatic payment plan however our checking account was automatically closed due to hacking. Called IC to explain why they could not get payment and tried to setup plan with new account information and women stated that could not be done and I had to pay in full. She was very rude and would not put on supervisor. I finally gave up and said I would call back. I called back at a later date and setup the automatic payment with the new information with no problem. However, just realized they sent our account to the credit report. Called back and spoke to a women and she explained why and just insisted I should have paid the bill. She would not listen to me and I asked to speak to someone else and she refused.

I have previously disputed two debts listed for collections by a 3td party agency via XXXX XXXX for XXXX an XXXX XXXX that were supposedly open in WA state in XXXX. Both were removed from my XXXX credit report as fraudulent. The agencies have apparently sold the debt to a new agency or the original creditors provided the info to a new agency and the debts are again showing on my credit listed with ICS Systems out of MN for XXXX XXXX {$240.00}, and XXXX XXXX XXXX for XXXX {$430.00}. I feel all creditors, Collections Agencies and Reporting agencies are grossly violating my rights as I have disputed these debts due to identity theft or fraud on multiple occasions and the accounts removed due to inability to validate the debt only to have them put back on my credit again by a new Collections agency that did not validate the debt and the Reporting agency did not prevent this repetitive abuse and harassment

The check cleared my bank on XX/XX/17 for the amount of XXXX on XX/XX/17 instead of the pay off letter I was expecting to receive in the mail I received a new bill for the amount he reduced my bill for.

I had an account that appeared on my credit as a collection for a company I had previously done business with, it was a cable provider. I canceled my account and returned the equipment to the carrier and I found that they had sent me to collections even though I didn't have a balance and had returned all the cable equipment. When I saw the {$500.00} collection I initially disputed it with all three bureaus because I knew I didn't owe them. The account was deleted by XXXX and XXXX because the company could not provide proof of the balance they were trying to collect or where it came from, now it is being reported to XXXX and XXXX is refusing to do anything about this. I know that this information is incorrect and it is harming my credit rating. it was already deleted by the other bureaus because the collection company can not provide proof of where this balance came from and XXXX needs to do the same.

I received a letter from IC System dated XXXX demanding payment of {$100.00} for a debt owed to a company called XXXX. The account number they assigned is XXXX and the IC XXXX number is XXXX. I have attempted to contact IC System by phone but the number provided in the letter goes to a vacant voicemail trunk and there is no other phone number provided. I was a stay-at-home mom when my children were small. They are adults now and I have not had children of daycare age for quite some time. Additionally, I have never had an affiliation with XXXX and do not owe money to them. This has not curbed IC System from attempting to collect on this " debt '' that I do not owe anyway. What further steps do I need to take to prevent this from hitting my credit report? I have a 800+ credit score and the last thing I need is some scam artist dragging that down. Any help you could provide is greatly appreciated.

My ssn was stolen a few years back and I have had random accounts like I.C. Systems pop up over the years which XXXX and the other bureaus should clearly be able to see on my account! It is unacceptable that XXXX verified their claim as accurate and selected their own description of no payment due to COVID19 when that is absolutely false! The only utility services I have are with XXXX since XX/XX/2020 and the first utility services I have gotten in over 4 years! There is nothing I can do about someone who has my information committing fraud, but when I pay for services to keep my credit file locked and monitored at all times and notify bureaus of fraudulent activity it is absolutely unacceptable to falsely claim things that are untrue! I want this fixed ASAP or I will be notifying my lawyer of this lie someone in XXXX approved and taking next steps to make sure all involved are held accountable!

I was emailed by XXXX yesterday about a change in credit score due to an outstanding debt that I have on my record. I found it odd, since I have never missed a payment on any of the debts that I owe. I checked and see that I have an outstanding debt balance of {$3800.00} originating from a company called ( I C SYSTEM INC ) that I do not recognize. I requested XXXX to dispute this and see it was originated from XXXX XXXX XXXX. I have never used XXXX XXXX XXXX as a carrier before and have never received any type of documentation regarding this matter. It states this was opened in XXXX of this year, but XXXX XXXX was in a state of lockdown during that time, so I have no idea where or how this could have happened. As a result of this my credit score dropped from XXXX to XXXX ... This is a charge that I am completely unaware of and it is affecting me financially, especially during these hard times.

I clearly asked ic systems if they report to my credit as this loan has not been on my credit since XX/XX/XXXX. I was advise they IC systems does not report to credit. I clearly stated I am willing to work with this month if they do not report to credit. If they die I can not work with them until XXXX. The rep stated IC systems does no report to credit as they legally do not own my debt. Following this I was advise if I did not make a payment this month my loan would become a lawsuits against me. I just started a new job and can not afford anything until XXXX. They pushed me into a payment this month. I find it unlawful and misrepresentation as I was told they legally can not report to my credit due to not owning my loan. As of XX/XX/XXXX my credit went down 18 points as they did in fact report to my credit. I read reviews today XX/XX/XXXX that show other people were mislead as well.

I was refinancing my home loan with another bank ( XXXX XXXX XXXX IL ) and the bank asked me about a debt collection that is showing up on my credit report. XXXX So I called the collection company that is was listed with IC Systems Collections. I explained to them that I had never had XXXX. They had me fill out a Affidavit stating what had happened, I had to file a police report, and send them a copy of my drivers license. Which I did all that was asked and mailed them in. A few weeks ago I called them to see where things were and they said they received my information but everything was on hold. They gave me a persons name and address on the account that I've never heard of. Now I received a report today stating Investigation Results- Verified as accurate and updated. This identity theft has wrecked my credit. I want it removed from my credit report. I submitted everything that was asked of me.

My original dispute started with I.C. Systems on XXXX. The above company ( I.C. Systems ) is currently violating both 15 U.S.C. 1681s-2 and Regulation F, for not properly validating this debt as previously requested and received in writing from me on both dates XX/XX/2023 and on XX/XX/2023 per my attached USPS proof of delivery. When validating the amount owed, they never sent proof of the following : 1. The date on which this became a debt up to our current date 2. The amount I was charged in interest that makes up this debt 3. The amount I was charged in fees 4. The amount I have paid in total on the debt 5. The accurate amount due ( From the above # s 1-4 ) as of today Also, this company is currently in violation because they knowingly violated 15 U.S.C. 1681s-2 of the FCRA, which expired on XX/XX/2023, by not removing the tradeline as requested with incorrect information on my consumer report.

I hired XXXX law to assist me with incorrect information showing on my credit report several years back which XXXX or XXXX was never reporting anything, then all of a sudden they hit my credit report with incorrect information that sunk my credit score for years, XXXX and XXXX started to report debt and re age old debt as if it just happened and it's over XXXX XXXX XXXX. It is costing me jobs and higher insurance due to incorrect information being reported for years. I want all the following accounts removed immediately, they have violated my credit rights for years which is approximately $ XXXX in collection charge offs, on top of original company reporting on my credit so it looks like I owe 2 companies same debt and dates of reporting of last activity and open dates are different with all of the following companies.

Was contacted today XX/XX/XXXX by IC Systems. Caller asked for me by name and recited my physical address asking for verification. I asked who was calling & caller responded IC Systems on a personal businesss matter. I replied that I had a prior complaint against IC Systems for harassment and fraudulent collection attempts, ( see complaint XXXX ) and that if this was a collection attempt I intended to file another complaint & initiate a FDCPA compliant as well. Caller stated they would remove my contact information from their files. However, they should have never had my contact information because in XXXX, IC Systems attempted to initiate collection on an illegal & fraudulent debt and agreed to cease and desist all contact after a complaint was filed. This new attempt shows that IC Systems is in fact actively seeking my information with the intention to use it for fraudulent collection attempts.

In reviewing my credit report I noticed an account in collections with IC Systems ( XXXX ) from services provided by XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, years ago. I closed the account with XXXX XXXX XXXX which had been on 'autopay ' every month through a credit card. I returned all the equipment via mail to XXXX XXXX XXXX as directed. The amount in collections is an even {$200.00}. Reasons to believe this is not accurate & have it removed from all credit reporting to XXXX and XXXX : - If I was on autopay, how could this ever have had a balance to go unpaid - The even dollar amount is suspicious as these types of services are never an even amount - XXXX XXXX XXXX wo n't speak with me because the account is closed - XXXX XXXX XXXX continues to seek my business, why is this if I was a delinquent customer? - This does n't appear on my XXXX report. With the reasons above, please have this removed immediately.

Due to the fact that my problem does n't truly exist in the drop down menu I will explain it myself in detail. I sent a Medical Creditors Validation letter with HIPPA requirements to I.C. System Inc. I had my Personal Financial Consultant XXXX XXXX to speak on my Behalf with them as well. I sent a legal authorization form to them as required. This account is a medical account that was in their office and I sent the letter for them to validate the debt in the allotted time frame given by the FDCPA which is 30 days. In my case the debt was never validated by I.C. System Inc. Therefore, by the FDCPA and Texas FDCPA Law which state that a debt collector must be register with the State of Texas in order to collect a debt in Texas. Also, that no Debt Buy can hire another debt collector to collect for them in Texas my debt should be removed off my credit report and out of the office of I.C. System Inc.

I.C. Systems Inc is reporting a delinquent account on my major credit bureaus that I owe them/this company {$1000.00}. I do not know what this company is. I have never conducted any business with I.C. Systems. On XX/XX/2023, I mailed and faxed written notification requesting proof of contract to substantiate I.C. System Inc 's claim to XXXX, XXXX XXXX XXXX that I am indeed the correct party they are seeking to collect this debt, yet my legal demand has gone unanswered. I.C. System Inc has yet to provide a underlying credit agreement, no proof of ownership and provided no legal basis to report " late payments '' or any information to consumer reporting agencies. As a ramification due to this fraudulent account, I was discriminated against & denied my right to be extended credit. Nevertheless, I have suffered emotional and mental stress because of this false and negative credit bureau reporting.

This company has refused to address me through the XXXX website and yet chose to contact me outside of this complaint and send me verification which I never asked for. Further communication from this company after I demanded them to cease and desist all communication with me is a direct violation of the FDCPA. After deleting this account from my consumer report, IC Systems reinserted this negative account back onto my consumer report without notifying me within XXXX days. I reaffirm that I do not owe this company any money and I refuse to pay any alleged debt. They have violated my cease and desist by sending me further information in the mail. IC Systems is using extortionate means to collect on an extension of credit that is not due to them which is punishable by jail time. Also stating that I am indebted to them for this account is a false claim and subject to criminal and civil liability.

I had an issue where XXXX caused malpractice harm to my animal. This resulted in additional expense at another vet hospital. Due to this issue, they agreed to release and cancel my contract since they violated the terms of the agreement to provide quality and medical competence to be a vet clinic. After 6-7 months IC systems was given an account saying I owed over a XXXX dollars. That is not valid. I have verbally disputed with them on multiple occasions and they continue to be unable to validate that I owe a debt and are using abbusive collection tactics and are refusing to validate the debt as the law required them to do with the FCRA. In addition, I was never given a 30 day notice of this debt. They proceeded to report to credit despite all my disputes. They have violated many strikes and I am requesting the immediate and total release of this debt and have it removed from my credit ASAP.

I am having issues disputing a debt on my credit report. I have spoken with XXXX XXXX XXXX and their third party collections agency IC System. My issue was that I was unaware of a debt from XXXX owed to XXXX XXXX. I have since paid my debt to XXXX XXXX back in XX/XX/XXXX but when they reported it to the collections agency IC System. IC System states they have not received the full amount stating there is a XXXX dollar balance still owed. This is not the case. I have informed both companies via phone of this mistake back in XXXX after I noticed it was still reflecting and damaging my XXXX XXXX. Speaking with XXXX XXXX I have verified my payment of the full amount owed via their 3rd party software XXXX. I have spoke with them both again via a teleconference later in XXXX and they have still not satisfied the debt. It is now the XX/XX/XXXX. This is harming my credit and I would like it disputed.

I did n't know that these bills existed, and no one told me anything about being able to dispute it either.

I acknowledge i am XXXX and asked more than once who she was and what her call was in reference to she continued to sate it was a personal confidential matter and asked for more verification questions I told her I was in public and would not spout off persona info. I asked her again for the company info and stated I would block the number form calling me if she did not answer my questions she did not so I hung up in her face. In an age of fraud and identity theft and phone scams I doubted this was even a legitimate call until I called back in. I do not wish this company to contact via phone at all .. not at all until the time frame specified by the gas company

I still have not received validation of this account but they are still reporting on my XXXX.

I.C systems is trying to collect debt of {$900.00} from me for a medical bill they claim I owe. I previously wrote a letter demanding that they comply with the fair debt collection practice act and fair credit reporting had this removed from the credit report and it continuously get placed back on my reports. I am requesting validation, made pursuant to the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act. Please note that I am requesting validation ; that is competent evidence bearing my signature, showing that I have ( or ever had ) some contractual obligation to pay you. They are in violation of the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act and the Fair Credit Reporting Act by claiming I owe money and they have no document bearing my signature wherein I allegedly authorized these charges. They are reporting this fraudulent claim to the credit bureaus as a valid debt, yet they are unable to validate the debt.

Re : I. C.

I contacted I. C. Systems in XX/XX/XXXXand the representative indicated an attempt to contact me three times in the year XX/XX/XXXX were made via phone ; however, no logs exist on my phone records showing the company attempted to contact me four years ago. There is not a record of them attempting to contact me since. I do not believe this debt is mine. I sent I. C. Systems a letter explaining in XX/XX/XXXX. I received zero communication until three months later in XX/XX/XXXX stating they still believed the debt was mine. I have provided sufficient evidence the debt is not mine. In addition, I have received minimal to zero communication of this debt over the last five years.

I personally contacted collection agency IC SYSTEM, XXXX XXXX, XXXX XXXX, MN XXXX, disputed the validity of the debt and requested under Fair Debt Collection Act ( 15 USC 1692g ), and requested that the Company provide me with any signed contract as well as billing invoices of the said unpaid bill within allowed time under the law. Upon belief and information, this account does not belong to me and/or may be as direct result of ID THEFT.It`s paramount that an investigation be conducted to determine the validity of the account. IC SYSTEM deliberately ignored my requests and has continued to proceed to collect on an unlawful debt without just cause, and as a direct result has caused me serious economic hardship and inability to secure employment or housing and/or obtain credit.

Called IC Systems and spoke to XXXX XXXX. Explained that a debt had been reported to my credit bureau incorrectly.I explained I wanted the debt removed from my credit bureau due to me not being responsible for this debt. He told me he could not remove it, he said his client XXXX XXXX is who he is collecting on behalf of. He advised the only way to remove a debt was for the debt to be XXXX XXXX out. Said he would send his client a letter to validate who the responsible party was for this debt, but could not remove any information until he heard back. When asked how long before I would hear back, he explained he didn't know. Then told me to call them back in a couple of weeks if I didn't hear from them or if I hadn't received any correspondence from their client, who was the original creditor. I asked why i had to wait, since I was not the one that owed them any money. He didn't know.

I was notified by my credit card company, who monitors my credit score, that I had a > 120 day derogatory statement added to my report. I have excellent credit history and always pay all of my bills on time and in full. When I looked into the matter it was for this debt collection agency I had never heard of, I.C. Systems. When I went to their website I could only file inquiries if I had an account number with them but I do not have this as they have never contacted me. This debt collection is for a total of {$88.00}, the absolute lack of warning that this account was due at all, followed by the very significant overdue derogatory mark placed on my credit score and coupled with the incredibly small amount of debt owed is in my opinion poor company practices. At this time I have filed a dispute with the credit bureaus and will be mailing them a formal dispute letter this afternoon.

This is concerning a XXXX hospital bill and XXXX prior to admission. However they claim the hospital doesn't pay the doctor, who has to separately bill?

XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX. I provided my insurance information to XXXX XXXX in XX/XX/XXXX. XX/XX/XXXX the debt appeared on my XXXX XXXX and XXXX credit report harming my scores drastically. I have perfect credit! The dates in question and XXXX visit appear on XXXX invoice, stating Not A Bill. This appears to be an attempt at Fraud towards a protected class. It makes no sense that billing would occur this way, when insurance is provided at time of service. To retaliate by impacting my credit when I'm insolvent anyway but have full insurance is ridiculous.

The debt relates to an XXXX & XXXX XXXX bill. Original amount owed : {$250.00}. Settled in full for {$160.00} XXXX XX/XX/XXXX ). I was contacted by XXXX XXXX XXXX about this early this year and I settled the account with them and it was considered PAID, SETTLED IN FULL, on XX/XX/XXXX. In XXXX I received a notice from a second collection agency, I.C. SYSTEM, making demand for the balance ( {$90.00} ). I called I C System and sent them proof that XXXX XXXX agreed to a reduced settlement. Today I received another notice from I C System, demanding the unpaid balance, claiming that I still owe it. This is affecting my credit. Both these companies have used deceptive tactics with me. I paid once, and I have a letter saying it was settled. Why should I now have to deal with yet another collection company. They won't talk to each other and they are not accepting the proof I sent!

On XX/XX/XXXX I received a letter from I C System debt collection agency dated XX/XX/XXXX stating that their office is increasing the balance owed on a delinquent account due to additional charges being incurred. The original balance was {$66.00} and I C System added {$520.00}. I C System is now trying to collect over 8 times the original amount of the debt from me. On XX/XX/XXXX, I sent a postal money order ( serial number ) XXXX for {$66.00} to pay my co-pay to the original creditor. My job insurance paid the rest of the entire bill already. I don't owe any more money. This company is falsely stating and misrepresenting the amount that I paid. They sent me another bill for {$66.00} and added another bill for {$520.00}. They are trying to collect twice. This bill was already paid. Please help, this is unfair business practices. Any assistance will be greatly appreciated. Thank you.

On XX/XX/XXXX, I checked my monthly credit report statement noting the following : Credit Alert Derogatory Account Reported By I.c. System, Inc Reported On XX/XX/XXXX Account Balance : {$100.00} Account # - XXXX XXXX XXXX - Ticket # - XXXX ; XXXX I called I.c. System, Inc. to inquire about the charge and was told that it was related to XXXX XXXX. They claimed it was related to an account that was closed in XXXX. At no time have I been made aware of the debt. I was never given a chance to dispute it. I have returned every equipment I ever collected from XXXX XXXX. This company has a pattern of misplacing returned equipment and coercing former customers into making payments. I have made multiple attempts to contact XXXX XXXX and have been promised a call back, all to no avail. I would like this unsubstantiated charge removed from my credit report. I'd greatly appreciate your help.

I was charged for XXXX work that I did not receive and that did not meet the standards of the XXXX Board of the State of Texas. Further I was overcharged for the shoddy work by a factor of 200 %. The XXXX threatened to report me to credit agencies unless I paid the bogus charge or gave her my auto. she reporte me to a collection agency and I submitted a large amount of information twice to the collection agency ( which she hired ). The collection agency found me in arrears and demanded that I pay them the amount due. I subsequently went to the XXXX board of the State of Texas with a formal complaint. They asked for additional information twice and then brought the XXXX before the Board. The Board found the XXXX to be at fault and reprimanded her along with stipulations and a fine as well as attorney fees and costs. This did not ease my derogatory credit remark on the bogus claim.

I responded to a notice I received from them on XXXX XXXX asking for an explanation for what this money was for but I have not received a response. I am attaching a copy of the letter I mailed to IC System. I requested more information on XXXX/XXXX/2017 and instead of responding, they chose to report this debt on my credit! This company has not provided me an explanation as to why they are charging me this money. This is not the only problem. Another company called " XXXX XXXX '' is also reporting this same account on my credit report! They have a different account number of " XXXX '' but the money they are asking for is {$980.00}. Is n't it illegal for two collection companies to try and collect on the same debt at the same time? I do n't know what this debt is for!

I never received any letters or debt validation from this company. I know my rights and I understand my consumer rights to dispute any information that is in error or not mine. I tried contacting this company about validation of the debt they claim I owe them. I need this company to send all signed documents stating that I agreed to pay them {$460.00}. I also need original copies and agreements between myself and this company. I do not have any knowledge about this debt they claim I owe. I am a very responsible person and this collection that they sent to the 3 major credit bureaus is damaging to my credit.

I received an alert through XXXX XXXX that a collection appeared on my credit report for XXXX XXXX for {$920.00}. The collection was placed on my credit report by an IC Systems. Ive never heard of an IC Systems and Ive never had XXXX XXXX XXXX services. And, logically, if I had XXXX XXXX, how would my bill be XXXX XXXXXXXX? That makes no sense. This is fraud. I disputed this with the credit bureaus but I received a message saying this is a legitimate charge. If you review my credit report, you dont see any history of me not paying bills so why would I start not paying bills now. I have a problem with the credit bureaus placing this information on my credit report, lowering my score, without verifying this debt with me in this fraud environment. The credit bureaus assumed this is a legitimate debt and assumed that the customer didnt pay. Im filing an identity theft police report

XXXX XXXX sold this debt to another collection agency but Im unsure of the name. I made monthly payments and a few days before I completed paying off this full balance of XXXX they sold it to a new collection agency. Shortly after I made my last payment I started receiving call from this new collection agency asking for the full balance stating they were just sold this collection and I have to pay the full balance again. I explained to them that I already paid this balance off and this said I was still required to pay anyway because I didnt make those payments with them. I feel its unfair for me to pay this again after already being paid in full. At one point they did remove it from my credit report and Ive recently noticed it was placed back on there as if it was never paid. Im unable to give dates due to it being years old but Im 100 % positive this debt has always been paid.

While trying to refinance my home with XXXX XXXX my credit report reflected I had several debts amounting to {$16000.00} with XXXX XXXX. I did not recognize that debt nor had I received any notices from IC Systems ( collection company ) regarding these amounts. XXXX bank representative called IC Systems trying to clarify this matter but they ended up giving us the phone number of a local hotel instead. I was able to get proof from the hospital that I did not owe anything to them and that they had not sent me to collection either. The hospital representative also called IC Systems to explain the situation buy they said to call in a while. I have called them again but can not get a definitive answer because they say they are disputing with the hospital and they can not give me proof that I do not owe anything. Meanwhile my credit is messed up and can not go forward with my loan.

I was unaware of our debt to XXXX via IC systems, as my payments were supposed to be auto deducted, and I never received anything in the mail saying i owed them anything, or that it was being sent to collection. They repeatedly called my cell number, but no one would be on the other end when I answered ( only found out it was banfield by looking it up ), then they stopped calling. I have recently learned they have been calling my parents ' home- sometimes asking for me, other times just silent. My husband called IC systems requesting they stop calling my parents ' number and call his, but they have not done either. I have been at my parents home when they call ( everyday ), and when i pick up the phone to ask why they are still calling this number, no one responds. My husband gave them his number of XXXX, but they have not once called. Please have them stop calling my parents!!

IC Systems contacted me, claiming I owed a debt to XXXX. I submitted a written request for a copy of the original debtor 's agreement, and stated that a bill generated by a purported creditor alone would not suffice as proof of a debt incurred. That any entity can generate a bill, and the creditor MUST produce evidence of agreement to enter into a creditor/debtor relationship in order to validate the claim of a debt owed. Despite my request, IC Systems simply and solely provided a copy of a bill from XXXX dated XX/XX/17. The bill indicates a " Previous balance '' of {$23.00}, with {$0.00} payment received, and " New Charges '' of {$20.00}. No payment was received because no agreement between myself and XXXX ( or XXXX ) exists. In short, I did not sign up for their service, I did not agree to be indebted for their service and I do not agree to pay for their unsolicited service.

This account was linked to my XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX CA. I called XXXX a while back and closed the account when I moved out of the home.

I recently got new service with XXXX, who only then told me an additional account was in collection and gave me the collection companys number, I immediately tried calling the collection company who told me that they couldnt find my account in their system and that I had to wait a month. Unfortunately after that time the account was already reported to my credit report. And now the collection company states they wont remove the account from my credit report. This has destroyed my perfect credit score and Im unable to finance properties for my real estate business.

The call was coming from an unknown number and had called XXXX times yesterday, in increments 4 hrs apart, and again at XXXX this morning. I finally answered assuming it was important. A female caller asked for me and I said this is she. She then asked to verify my address. I asked her to identify herself and she provided her name and some random employee number but DID NOT identify where she was calling from. I asked her again WHERE she was calling from and she refused to do so. She said I am calling about an important private matter and I need to verify your information first. I told her I was NOT giving her any information until she advised where she was calling from. She refused to do so and said " thank you we will try another time '' and hung up on me. I did research online and found the number belongs to IC Systems. I am not aware of any outstanding debts at this time.

We put the account on Autopay since the beginning of the account. I suddenly see a letter came to us saying that my XXXX account is in collection for 2 diff bills on {$18.00} and {$54.00} that I am not aware of. XXXX customer services say they created sub accounts. I never got a bill or nor should I coz they are not my account number. So I disputed it with the customer service rep and they said it has gone to collections and I have to pay to save my credit. That was ridiculous. So I wrote to the collection agency saying these are not my accounts. Not sure what a sub-account is. Asked them to remove it from my record. My credit took a 54 points dive due to this. I need help to maintain my credit with this big corporate giant.

This company IC System is still reporting this account to XXXX and XXXX, I have asked them many times that I want them to provide me with the original contract as proof that this debt belongs to me because I am not going to pay them a single dime until I see the original contract. If this company keeps giving me problems then I will take them to court and file a small claims suit against them for reporting false information which is also considered defamation of character. It wouldnt cost me much to do so, on the other hand they will have to provide the original contract to the court. If they want we can do it that way. Delete the account from my credit reports immediately. I know that the FCRA states that a creditor must provide a consumer with the original contract when it is requested, if that cant be provided then the account must be deleted from the credit report.

I have never ever had an account with XXXX XXXX XXXX in my life. how could this be my debt? Please help me resolve this ridiculous practice. It's very stressful when your credit is disrupted. My credit record reflects that I have outstanding credit rating and always paid on time even with high dollar accounts. I need this fraudulent claim removed from my file. Thank you for your assistance.

I had a collection on my credit report from about 4 years ago from XXXX XXXX and electric in which belongs to my mother. I have been disputing it ever since it was originally added to my credit report because it does not belong to me. On XX/XX/XXXX my dispute finally was accepted and the account was deleted, the creditor at this time was called XXXX XXXX XXXX. About a week ago ( around XX/XX/XXXX ) the collection was added back to credit report after it being OVER A YEAR and now has a new creditor called I C System. Now the collection is saying it was opened in XX/XX/XXXX which is totally inaccurate from when it was originally on my account and i would have to wait another 7 years for it to drop if it is not resolved. Also it was deleted originally for false information and its been over a year why was it added again with a new creditor a year later. Im highly upset.

XX/XX/XXXX We switched our smart phone service from XXXX to XXXX XXXX We had two XXXX XXXX phones and one reader board. For some reason, the reader board, which was subsequently not used, was not able to be switched at that time. We did not realize XXXX would keep charging us for it. XXXX sent a bill in late XXXX for {$84.00}. I sent check # XXXX dated XX/XX/XXXX for that amount and that check cleared my bank on XX/XX/XXXX. I sent notification with the check that we were no longer using XXXX for our service. XX/XX/XXXX XXXX continued to bill us, and I phoned them. My notes show I talked to XXXX, who assured me there would be no more charges, and that our account was closed with the CLOSING CODE XXXX. However, XXXX kept sending emails that we owed them. Please see the copies of billing documents emails and subsequent debt collection notices and our replies thereto.

I have called the company IC System Inc several times and verified that the address they have on file for myself is not accurate and that I had been the victim of identity theft. They stated they were going to send paperwork that I needed to complete that would assist them in determining if I was telling the truth. They stated it would take two weeks to receive. I did not receive the document. I filed a police report as they requested. It has been 8 weeks. I have called the original company XXXX and spent more than 45 minutes being transferred from person to person with no assistance. This fraudelent information is affecting my ability to get my home refinanced and needs to be removed immediately as it is fraudulent. When I called XXXX I told one of the customer service agents that it was due to identity theft and he proceeded to ask me if I wanted to pay the bill.

On XX/XX/2019 I have submit Complaint Number XXXX, where I asked to protect me from illegal calls and unlawful reports of I C System Inc, who report FOUR derogatory accounts on me during XX/XX/2019 with the same balance of {$100.00} about the same dept which already hit my credit history on XX/XX/2019. ONCE AGAIN. The derogatory account with a balance {$100.00} already hit my credit HISTORY and decreased my CREDIT SCORES in amount 18-20 scores on XX/XX/2019, and I sent you a screenshot of my credit alert about this. But I C system didn't leave me alone, and they used that Complaint Number XXXX to illegally know my current address and keep bothering me with their unlawful bills, now through the mail. Also, I never saw notifications that XXXX 's FOUR derogatory accounts were CANCELLED, and it never hit my credit history. But I saw increasing of scores for about 18.

Dear IC System : I hereby ask that you verify IC System claims concerning consumer materials conferred to the three credit CRAs for me, XXXX XXXX, for the suspicious account number XXXX, XXXX. Since damaging reporting errors may be vis-a-vis that reported data, I formally request that you document and send the formal validation on your letterhead promptly. Additionally please show that this account was not claimed as a loss with any insuring entity. This is not a request for a summary one-sheet. In lieu of that, I must requisition a full audit. If these reasonable demands can not be met during the month following receipt, data uploaded by IC System to the credit bureaus should be deemed wrongful and may evince a nullification of my consumer rights. Given that occasion, you must annul that bureau material directly. Thank you for IC System assistance in this regard.

There was a an improper debt reported to my Credit report. XXXX XXXX XXXX incorrectly charged me for service day after I scheduled shut off for XX/XX/XXXX. They did not close my account until XX/XX/XXXX. Therefore I was charged {$100.00} incorrectly. I spoke to XXXX XX/XX/XXXX at XXXX at XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX. She explained to me the error on their part and they credited me {$50.00}. XXXX said they would remove the collection under I.C. Systems from my credit report with a payment of {$52.00}. I submitted that payment immediately in order to clear this matter up and get it removed from my report. She said it will take 4-6 weeks to remove from my credit report. This is unacceptable. I took care of the payment immediately because of their improper billing, therefore this collection account under I.C. Systems for the amount of {$100.00} should be removed immediately.

To this date I have not received the requested verification of debt requested. The end of XXXX of XXXX I reached out to them via telephone to inquire about the verification request I sent because they were in violation of the fair credit reporting act after not responding within the 30 day time frame. I was advised by the representative that they forwarded the letter on to XXXX XXXX who was the original creditor but that they did not receive a response. I advised that they were in violation and therefore by law needed to remove it from all 3 credit reports. I was told that they would not remove it then they agent again attempted to collect on the debt. The amount of the debt shows to be {$950.00} opened on XX/XX/XXXX last report XX/XX/XXXX.

Dentist offered me bridge and ssid it was covered after it was done insurance denied it due to previous tooth missing. Dental then charging me for full cost. Insuance advised me not to pay since dentist did not receive authorization prior to work. Had I known it was not covered by insurance I woul have had a single crown which would have been covered. 2 ) Went to dentist to re glue a crown and covering dentist filed crown and exposed metal on different areas then glued back on. I then went to my regular dentist and told her she lied to me and ssid that was just normal wear and tear! No it is not it was obvious of filing. Besides whennI went in crown was intact and notice at home it was exposing areas of metal! Terrible services and no honesty! Very unsatisfied! Poor communication

Time warner cable sent the account to collections prior to me returning their equipment after I cancelled the service due to a move about one month ago. The debt collector, IC systems, never contacted me about the payment and instead, they called my partner to say there was a debt owed by me, revealed the account it related to and the total amount due. As per the FDCPA, this is a clear violation as they can only contact relatives and the like to LOCATE the person. They can not reveal identifying information. What is more of a problem however is that they never attempted to reach me prior to making this call. I have no missed calls, mailed letters, emails or the like from anyone matching the company number. I also do not have any missed calls in general from any unknown numbers as I went through my call log for the last month to see if I had somehow missed a call.

I was contacted in XX/XX/XXXX about a debt owed from XXXX for XXXX from IC Systems. They did not verify the debt with me but told me the amount that I owed. When I spoke with them I told them that I was disputing the debt and that I owed nothing. Then there was a report on my credit report from them that has been for the past year. They have not furnished me with any ledgers or bills from XXXX and have been reporting for the past year. They are in violation of FDCPA 15 USC 1692 et seq., which requires that a debt collection agency use fair practices such as furnishing the correct information to a debtor if, in fact, they do owe the debt. XXXX can not furnish any documents of a past due bill either. I contacted them in XX/XX/XXXX and they could not furnish a ledger either. This has created a loss only credit reporting and there is not any accuracy of debt owed.

I have also reached out to collection agencies who have appeared to have ownership of the debt. For some reason this account is still displaying on my credit file and it should not be due to it being established through fraud or identity theft. It seems both the bureaus and collection agencies are violating the Fair Credit Reporting Act and the Fair Debt Collection Practice Act. The accounts in question are XXXX XXXX Acct XXXX Bal {$400.00}, ICS # XXXX Bal {$130.00}, XXXX XXXX # XXXX Bal {$440.00}, and XXXX XXXX {$150.00}. These accounts are all associated with identity fraud I have submitted supporting documentation for the 2nd time to the three major consumer reporting agencies to support my claim.

XXXX was told by myself that after losing my job due to COVID i could not continue to pay my cable/internet bill and asked them to send someone to come pick up their equipment as I was not able to drive to a drop off point nor was i willing to drive to a drop off point. They sent someone to install the equipment, they can send someone to pick the equipment up and that it would be in a box on my porch. Nobody ever came to pick the equipment up so I moved the box to my garage where it still sits. They then proceeded to charge me with failure to return equipment. I told them I wasn't paying for the equipment because I still had it and they never picked it up and that i would pay the balance of my bill at the time of disconnection and not a penny more. XXXX refused to pick up their equipment and then charged me for it and sent collections after me for the amount

I notified IC Systems , Inc. in writing on XX/XX/XXXX that the amount of {$96.00} they were attempting to collect from me on behalf of XXXX XXXX XXXX was an erroneous charge. I sent them proof of mailing that the XXXX equipment was returned as required via XXXX on XX/XX/XXXX. The receipt documented the serial numbers of the equipment I returned. Despite this, I continue to receive harassing phone calls, first from XXXX XXXX XXXX in XXXX and now from IC Systems demanding payment. My efforts to resolve this dispute directly with XXXX XXXX XXXX were unsuccessful. XXXX said they would only correct it if I agreed to resubscribe to their cable service, which I refused. IC Systems submitted a derogatory report to the three credit reporting companies : XXXX, XXXX, and XXXX, on XX/XX/XXXX and XX/XX/XXXX resulting in damage to my otherwise excellent credit rating.

I received my first letter from this company just a few weeks ago. Since then they have called me and made sure to flag my credit report on a weekly basis as a collection account. I have several issues with this collection account. 1. ) It appears that they are not licensed to collect in Iowa. Please see attached. 2. ) Their aggressive tactics. 3. ) I have never signed anything or agreed to do business with this company. 4. ) They show an incorrect/incomplete account number so there is no way to verify that it is mine. 5. ) They show it as a collection account with a balance. My understanding is that collection accounts are not supposed to show a balance. To my knowledge, all of the above issues are violations of the FCRA and I would like them to immediately stop trying to collect from me and to remove their collection account from my credit reports.

I owed {$3500.00} in taxes and they are charging me {$4800.00} with penalties and interest. I have made 4 payments for the full amount plus XXXX in tax refunds they kept. As of today XX/XX/2023 they say I owe {$2900.00}. They are not applying the debt to the tax amount first and charging me {$300.00} a month in fees. This is criminal and they cant explain this to me. I called XXXX and they told me they can charge whatever they want. XXXX put a lien in my home and this is just a pure scam. The state has a huge tax surplus and XXXX sure some of this money is coming from this collection activity. I will report this to all the news station until someone stops this from happening to hard working taxpayers

I have received a collection notice in the mail and I am disputing the validity of this debt. I have already cleared this confusion in 2018 with proof of receipts from XXXX that shows I turned in the equipment for XXXX XXXX. The return receipts include date, time, XXXX store address, and the equipment numbers for everything I returned. If XXXX lost the equipment, that is their problem not mine. When I contacted XXXX XXXX about this invalid debt two years ago, the customer service rep told me they received the equipment and will update my account. But just recently, I get threatened with a collection notice. Take my account out of collections or I will sue you. By the way, I mailed a certified letter with the return receipts to you yesterday. So I will know when you receive it. And it is attached to this complaint. Don't play games with me. You will lose.

This is not my debt yet is on my credit report I am a victim of identity theft. I currently am dealing with having to file complaints against the 3 credit bureaus for allowing and continuing to allow incorrect and false information to be placed on my report. I live in XXXX this credit agencies refuse to provide me with proof of how they verified this account. This agency is licensed in XXXX and should not be reporting a past due balance on a collection account that does not belong to me on my credit report. How can a collection have a collection on an open account that is past due? They should find the party responsible and ruin their life not mine. I'm sure who ever sold this debt to them has written it off so they should try to have that company provide them with the correct debtors information.

I cancelled my services with XXXX and they said i owed XXXX. I was driving when I was talking to them and could not retrieve my form of payment -- the phone rep. said he would call me back but never did so, I called them and they stated that my account was suspended but not cancelled so they continued the charges with no service. I had switched to XXXX XXXX XXXX. XXXX told me that i owed XXXX which was not correct. I have no problem paying the XXXX but i don't owe for services that were not rendered. I have no access to pay online on the account because when i log in it sends a code to the phone with the services. Since i have no service i can not retrieve the code. XXXX said that they can only accept the XXXX before they can discuss the account with me. They said they suspended the service in case i wanted to reactivate instead of cancelling service.

I had one account with XXXX for mobile phone service, it was reported on my credit as a collection. Later on, there was a second account from XXXX reported on my credit for collection, it was for XXXX XXXX, a home utilities. The XXXX was not my account, so I disputed it and it was deleted from my credit report. The XXXX account was only in my mother 's name. I later get a notice for collection from a different collection agency after the other is deleted. I call the new collection agency and they try to tell me it was fraud and tried to get me to open up a fraud report on my mother saying she must have signed my name as a cosigner. This was not true and I tried to explain that we had two accounts with XXXX for different things but in the same household and under different names, that it was a mistake by XXXX in reporting it. They did not listen.

XXXX kept reporting an unverified debt that I did not owe against me. Particularly, XXXX refused to delete an unverified collection filed on my credit profile by IC Systems Collections. I was not responsible or privy to the underlying collection. IC Systems Collections reported the same inaccurate debt information on other Credit Bureau Companies such as XXXX and XXXX. When I noticed the inaccurate debt information on my credit, I requested validation and subsequently disputed the debt. XXXX and XXXX deleted the debt from my credit account when it was found inaccurate and unverifiable. However, XXXX refused to delete the inaccurate debt information from my account hence, this complaint. Therefore, I believe XXXX is taking the reporting of the erroneous debt information personally against me. Please compare other Bureaus ' credit reports with XXXX.

On XX/XX/XXXX I've received a letter from I.C Systems INC. stating that there is a debt collector trying to collect a debt from me in the amount of {$1500.00}. After doing some research to see if there are licensed in my state of Florida. I.C Systems are not licensed in the state of Florida. According to the FCCPA If the debt collector is not licensed in the state of Florida, they are violating the FCCPA and in turn violating the FDCPA. Each violation carries a {$1000.00} statutory damages provision for each violation, which in this instance is each call or contact by a non-licensed debt collector. It is recommended at this point to contact an attorney who regularly handles these types of claims against debt collectors. I filed a complaint with Florida 's Office of Financial Regulation and with Florida 's attorney general to take legal action.

In addition, I have called XXXX to inquire about the investigation.

Recently a collection agency has attempted to collect a debt from XXXX that wasn't mine for the amount of {$1300.00}. the debt was later discharged and affidavit and police report was given to that last collection agency that this debt was sold to by XXXX and was resolved so i thought. I now received notice from another collection agency ICSystems Acct # XXXX for the same debt and amount. this account was file as a identity theft claim. report was made regarding my identity with the Federal Trade Commission report # XXXX and police reports was made with my local police department for victim deceptive practices. XXXX is threatening my financial future as well as IC Systems. to attempt to collect a debt twice regardless of the fact reports was made for identity theft is unfair and breaks multiple rule according to The Fair Credit Reporting Act.

This account was originally owed by my ex-wife. It consisted of an electric bill and gas bill from two separate residences in XXXX XXXX, NY and XXXX, NY which were combined by XXXX XXXX XXXX Gas and Electric into one account when my ex didn't pay the bill for which she was responsible. The combined total was reported to collections in XX/XX/XXXX, scheduled for removal from my credit report in XXXX. The debt was aparently sold to another agency, IC Systems, on XX/XX/XXXX, account number XXXX. This created an additional issue, which is huge. IC Systems reset the collection date another 7 years, even though my only interaction with them was an online dispute through XXXX XXXX as an intermediary. This is unfair and a violation of Fair Credit standards. Currently reported to XXXX and XXXX XXXX, I want this debt removed immediately from my reports.

This company sent me a letter stating I owed a debt to XXXX XXXX in the amount of {$260.00}, but they would settle for XXXX if I call them and settle it. The amount they are stating is owed, was from equipment being sent back delayed due to Hurricane Harvey hitting and flooding the XXXX area some years back. The equipment has since been returned and the account is a XXXX balance. Also, I was a service member that was able to void the contract with military orders for XXXX. This company is requesting money that isn't even owed with any validity. They are preying on a XXXX XXXX XXXX Veteran. I have already dealt with this with another collection company prior on the same exact debt! It's a shame that these companies exist.

It's been about 2 months now so they should be deleted promptly. I demand these accounts be deleted immediately or I will file litigation due to the stress that was caused to me. My information was also impacted by the XXXX data breach and may have got into the hands of the wrong person. I AM NOT USING A CREDIT REPAIR COMPANY, I AM REPORTING THIS VIOLATION ON MY OWN BEHALF. I'VE ATTACHED MY LETTER, AND A UTILITY BILL FOR FURTHER VERIFICATION.

In XXXX 2017 i purchased a phone for my girlfriend at the time through XXXX. On XX/XX/XXXX I found out she transferred to XXXX and she said XXXX paid XXXX off for her business and turns out we owed XXXX like XXXX dollars for the phone because XXXX technically didnt buy her out. I was really unaware of all of this until it was too late. I had been paying XXXX monthly for her not knowing we owed XXXX. I received the collection letter and I immediately jumped into action and started making payments on the debt. I only owe about 100 dollars now and should be taken care of this month and Id really appreciate if I could be forgiven for this misunderstanding and if I could have the derogatory remark taken off my credit report. If you see my credit report you can see Im very responsible and that this never happens. I have 100 % payment history.

In XXXX, my identity was stolen and used to file taxes and in XXXX, my identity was used to apply for loans, credit cards, and only XXXX knows what else according to my knowledge. As I'm not exactly sure who nor when, I can only assume it's due to the XXXX web and also when my personal information was auctioned off in a storage unit that I lost in XXXX. I immediately placed an initial fraud alert on all 3 of my credit files with all 3 major credit bureaus. I then signed up for credit monitoring and I have filed an ID theft affidavit and a police report. Your help would greatly be appreciated to resolve this issue. As you well know it is a violation of the FCRA to report erroneous information and accounts without original contracts with signatures. I ask that you validate these debts fully so that this issue may be resolved immediately.

I had received XXXX XXXXXXXX back in 2013. After the XXXX was completed I began having complications with my XXXX so I went back to my doctor for a review. It was determined that the surgeon had damaged my XXXX XXXX during the original XXXX on my XXXX. He offered to do another XXXX to repair the accidental damage done from the first XXXX at no cost to me. I agreed and the XXXX was preformed. Some time later I started receiving bills from my doctors office for the secondary XXXX preformed. After calling my doctors office and explaining to them what had happened and why the second XXXX was needed they agreed to stop billing me. Later after having my credit report pulled I noticed that my doctors office had sold the debt to a collection agency. I never agreed to this debt and I have been unable to have it removed from my credit report.

I paid this collection company due to the fact that I did not recognize a debt that they were reporting on my credit report. I sent the company a letter requesting validation that was delivered on Monday, XX/XX/2019 ( XXXX Tracking Number XXXX ). I've attached a copy of the letter requesting accurate validation of this debt and indisputable fact the debt is mine. My payment on the account did not confirm ownership of this unknown debt, nor did they provide me with any sort of verification of the debt. I have not heard from this company and the debt is still being reported as " settled/paid '' on my credit report. Please stop reporting this unvalidated debt from all credit reporting agencies ( XXXX/XXXX/XXXX ) and/or provide me with valid " wet ink '' validation of my signature on an *original* document associating me with this debt.

XXXX. Not my account. This situation has been ongoing for so long, I do not even know when it began, but do know that I am very ill and XXXX at the time and over XXXX. I could hardly believe I received another collection letter recently, thinking after speaking with XXXX a few times, that per them, all was corrected. I have had the same phone number for many years, 14+. I started getting billed first from XXXX and then the collectors. The statement amount if for {$470.00}, dated XX/XX/2017, which was sent with the collector letter. I.C.System, account # XXXX, ref # XXXX. {$94.00} of this amount is for a collection charge. I realize one could talk until they are blue in the face with people like this to no avail. Well, I buy cheap phones and keep my bill down. I do not know how this occurred, but want the harrassment stopped.

The following alleged account is listed as a collection with a PAST DUE balance of {$300.00} Account Name 1.C.

According to the Fair Credit Reporting Act I have the right to a fair and accurate credit report, therefore any information that is not true, accurate and verifiable is required to be removed.

I was applying and looking at a mortgage for my son and I and was notified by the credit union i had a collection on my account through I C system from XXXX communication. i had canceled and returned all equipment and was told i owed nothing to them and recieved zero contact from the debt collector about it being reported on my credit report leaving a deragatory remark, which in turn hindered my chances of getting a mortgage. XXXX told me they have bo ledger or description of why i owe or what i owe. The deragatory remark on my credit report without any notice from the collector because it being a charge off which they will not collect is unethical to not give the person notice or a right to dispute the debt in which my case i do not believe i owe. Finding this out just now when applying for something like this is very unsettling.

I.C. SYSTEM, INC put a derogatory mark on my XXXX credit file. I called them on XX/XX/XXXX the day it posted on XXXX and they told me I owed XXXX {$190.00} from 2016.

XX/XX/XXXX, I called XXXX to verify that I did not owe them anything and they told me that I do not owe them..that my previous accounts with them show a XXXX balance and if I had an account that went into collections it would show on their end that it was written off.

I asked them for proof that it was my account and they said they could not give me that information.

XXXX has sold my acct to multiple collections companies and they are all trying to collect different amounts. I've already paid my balance. On XX/XX/XXXX XXXX reported to XXXX XXXX XXXX for {$520.00}. I paid this amount even though I believe it was an error and I think the cable company charged me for equipment i returned. I paid {$520.00} on XX/XX/XXXX, ref # XXXX. I can attached bank statement. This was under my legal name of XXXX XXXX. Then on XX/XX/XXXX the CPA billed me for {$420.00} under the name XXXX XXXX for a XXXX acct. It's not possible to have two cable accts for the same address i disputed it. Now another collection called IC System is billing me for the {$420.00} again. XXXX XXXX XXXX also reported the {$420.00} on XX/XX/XXXX and I believe I also paid this acct in error since i was in the process of buying a home.

I was directed to contact XXXX directly because there was nothing the collector could do for the fraud. XXXX then directed me back to the debt collector. I have gone back forth multiple times. I received a letter from IC Systems that the account would be deleted and not pursued any longer. However, it has never come off of my credit reprts and continues to damage my credit. I was the victim of identity theft and have the documentation stating so. But these companies refuse to take the account off even after filling out all the required documents and receiving proof of deletion. I do not know how else to resolve this issue with them.

IC Systems is reporting incorrect information because this is NOT my account. I asked them to validate the account under a previous CFPB complaint and they sent me a number of bills on behalf of XXXX that has an address I did not reside at with the incorrect spelling of what I assume supposed to be my name. The bill reflects a XXXX XXXX, NOT ME. I spoke to XXXX and advised this was not my debt and the woman from the XXXX Executive Office hinted at me creating multiple accounts with them and told me that it was NOT fraud so it wouldn't be reported as that. She furthermore, advised she was going to speak with her finance manager and NEVER called me back. What was your Method of Verification IC Systems?

I contacted XXXX X/X/17 at XXXX XXXX , spoke to XXXX , who doubled checked our closed account, her response I quote : " your balance is XXXX , you 've been a excellent customer, would you like to come back to us? '' I asked one more time, do we owe XXXX anything, " no you do not, ignore the collection letter, it sounds as if you 're being scammed. ''

this debt collector has violated several of my rights under the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act. I have never done business with this company and there is not a contract bearing my signature that i owe this company. This is false and misleading that i owe this company any amount of money which a direct violation under 15 U.S.C 1692e This company has damaged my consumer report by furnishing an account under false pretenses and committed Identity Theft. according to federal law 15 U.S.C1681s-2 '' A person shall not furnish information relating to a consumer to any consumer reporting agency if ( i ) the person has been notified by the consumer, at the address specified by the person for such notices, that specific information is inaccurate '' I will be filing a complaint with the attorney general and will pursue litigation

I received notification of settlement to resolve a debt from IC System. On XX/XX/2020 I went online, entered the reference # XXXX noted on the offer and paid the amount offered to resolve the debt. ( XXXX toward a principal of XXXX ) A few days later I followed up online and the debt did not reflect my payment. I called customer service and assured them the payment cleared my account and gave them the confirmation # I received upon payment. After a moment, the representative stated the payment was applied to a different account. An account to which I had no knowledge. The account to which the payment was applied had time-barred debt. I believe the company knowingly mis-applied the payment in order to reset the statute of limitations on the old debt I was not aware of, in order to hold me liable for set time-barred account.

I received a collection letter from IC collections, regarding a debt from XXXX XXXX for unreturned equipment in XXXX. XXXX sent me a letter stating my balance was zero and the charges were reversed. Not to mention this debt was XXXX in XXXX XXXX in XXXX,, they reported it to collections on XXXX after requesting proof of the debt and myself not receiving said proof. I called direct and they basically reversed the charges for the equipment and subsiquently opened a new account with the same balance for the equipment. I didn't authorize nor request any new accounts. I advised both companies of the multiple violations they were committing and got nobody that could speak English enough to understand, or lacked the cognitive ability to. I'm intending pursuing further legal action for damages under the Fair credit reporting act.

I.C. SYSTEM, INC has reported a collections account to my credit reports in the amount of {$260.00}. They are in direct violation of the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act. I have never once received a notice from this company at my address, and I have no idea what this debt is for. Nor a phone call or voicemail from them. They made no real attempt to communicate the debt to me. If they did send a notice they either sent it somewhere incorrectly or sent it with no direct company information on the envelope. Opening random envelopes is not safe for a multitude of reasons, and they did not clearly notate themselves on any potential notices. Aside from that, I have informed delivery from XXXX and can clearly see nothing from IC Systems was ever sent. IC Systems has violated articles 807, 808, 809 and 812 to name a few.

After the equifax breach there were a lot of fake charges and I was able to get all but one expunged. This fake {$170.00} " IC Systems Collections # XXXX " original creditor XXXX XXXX '' is not valid as I have used XXXX for many years and haven't used " XXXX XXXX '' for about 8 or 9 years and when I had it they directly deducted their payment from my credit card with no issues. So this is FAKE FAKE FAKE and I can not get XXXX to understand this-there is no intelligent human life there to work with and I am up to hiring an attorney for {$5000.00} down just to fight to get my credit report to be accurate with XXXX. I pay ALL my bills including credit card 100 % each month, no balance EVER, and I just paid my second mortgage balance IN FULL so it isn'r about money, IT IS ABOUT HONOR AND HONESTY!!! Thank you for helping me.

I specifically asked if this is a collection agency and the woman kept stating the company name instead of confirming she is working for a collection agency. This is breaking multiple different laws.

My information was used to obtain an apartment, cell phone, and an auto loan with my ex-partner. I am a victim of identity theft and have put this off for too long. I've completed the proper steps, 1. notify creditors 2. police report 3. informed the state of Texas. The individual I've suspected for this theft is now deceased, and the police department said to contact the federal trade commission to seek relief. These companies disregard laws and dont care whos credit or lives they impact.

I purchased a samsung galaxy phone from a XXXX representative and was told at the time of the purchase that it came with a free tablet and that there was no contract and that I could cancel the device at any time. My phone was stolen and I immediately called and reported it and was told that my service would be cancelled and I would not be billed for anything but the price of the phone and to return the tablet to the nearest XXXX store. The store refused to even let me pay for the phone and said I breeched my contract and that I owed over XXXX dollars for the phone, tablet early termination and other fees. I also could not pay or work out any deal with XXXX because they referred it to a collections agency and told me they no longer were involved at all. All I have received from this is a report on my credit.

I pulled my credit report to find a {$130.00} alleged debt that was owed to a dentist. I have dental insurance. I was never notified that a portion was not covered. When I called the dentist ' I was told that the notice was sent to an old address. Therefore, I never received any notification or right to dispute the debt. They said they transferred the debt to a debt collector. They, too, never sent me anything at the correct address. Had I received proper notification and proof that the insurance company hadn't paid a portion, I would have paid the debt. As they did not follow required debt collection procedures, I would like the collection removed, for violating debt collection practices. Had they done their research, they would have known that they had the incorrect address, as DMV had my correct address.

They did not send me any initial communication alerting me of this debt. Please be advised, I dispute the validity of the alleged debt in its entirety. Further I request verification of the alleged debt, including, ( 1 ) the name and address of the original creditor, ( 2 ) copy of the oral or written request or application for the alleged account, ( 3 ) copy of a signed contract or signed agreement with the alleged original creditor, and ( 4 ) previous 12 months of statements of account. They are illegally attempting to collect an alleged debt and money that I do not owe. As per the law, including the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act, cease and desist all collection activity, including all credit reporting activity.

I am filing this complaint because a company called IC System is not providing me with validation that I owe them any money.

It is listed that they are based in XXXX XXXX, MN and I have never lived in Minnesota in my life. I live in Georgia. This company has several negative reviews and over 616 consumer complaints listed on the Better Business Bureau 's website. I will not give my money to a company I do not recognize and who will not tell me why they want me to pay them.

I notified XXXX XXXX XXXX immediately but they were unable to verify my identity over the phone because someone accessed my account without permission and changed my address, phone number and other info.

I entered a consumer credit transaction with the alledged original creditor and as a result they used my credit card ( as described in 15 USC 1602 ) and was extended credit in a consumer credit sale. they are now claiming that they originated the credit I extended to them, in which constitutes fraud, the alleged interest not included in the finance charge ( sum of all charges ) Pursuant to federal law They have committed fraud and several violations of the FDCPA and TILA. A third party IC SYSYEMS are now threatening me for an alleged debt that they claim I owe. I never received a Material Disclosure of any of the information that was supposed to be provided to me. IC SYSTEMS has taken an unfair advantage of me as a consumer and they should be held accountable for deceiving me and not validating the debt.

This agency placed a negative item in my credit report without being contacted to dispute an alleged debt I owe them. They violated my right to dispute the alleged debt that I do not recognize. I sent them a validation letter for more than 30 days, but I never received a response. In the meantime, my credit continues to be damaged. According to the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau, a collection agency has 5 days to respond. I need them to validate the alleged debt properly. I sent them a very clear and concise validation letter. There are so many elements and so many questions that remain unanswered. I don't recognize the debt and if they think otherwise they will prove it to me with facts. If not kindly that they delete the negative information that they are validating in my credit report.

I also disputed the charge on my credit and had it removed. After XXXX years of thinking that this issue was resolved. IC Systems tried to come back and claim a collection on my report again but this time using a new account number. This company is a fraud and please be careful not to make any payments to them.

I have not received a response from I C Systems, or documentation that the collection is, in fact, mine. XXXX Having never received a collection notice, I was not given the chance to dispute the debt before it was reported to my credit. And from what I see on the reports, they did n't even wait the 30 day period before reporting it, since they got it in XXXX and were reporting it by XXXX . Which makes me believe a letter was never sent, they just reported without even trying. Is that even allowed? Are n't consumers supposed to have a chance to dispute or pay a debt before it ruins their credit?

I believe that this account has been re-aged. I have a delinquency on my credit report from XX/XX/XXXX stating that it is from XXXX for XXXX dollars. I did not live in the US from late XXXX until mid-XXXX and did not have XXXX during this time. I did have some sort of XXXX XXXX in early XXXX. I experienced a XXXX XXXXXXXX situation and the bill may have gotten lost in the mix. I am not sure. I was just trying to survive at the time, to be honest. I can not even tell you if it was XXXX or not. Anyway, considering that it was from early XXXX, it has passed the 7-year mark and should not be on my credit anyway. If IC System did purchase a valid debt back in XXXX when I did not even live in the country, they re-aged it to the time when it was purchased and not the time when it was actually delinquent.

I was never made aware of this debt until it was in collections. I feel this company and/or the company the debt was allegedly owed to are using unfair practices for collecting a debt. This has harmed me by affecting my credit score and I was unable to avoid the negative impact to my credit as I was never notified of owing any debt and then I had this appear on my credit report. If I owed a debt it would have been paid, but I couldn't have taken care of something I was not aware of. I did have a medical procedure a few years back but I took care of all of the bills related to that, so I do not understand why this account appears on my credit report. I believe I am being charged for someone else 's debt. Please do not contact me by phone, I would like communication in writing only for my records.

I did provide in writing to the agency that I could return the modem box to XXXX in place of the debt being owed before the collection date of XXXX IC System did not attempt to reach out to me to confirm if the request was accepted or denied in order to stop the debt. Instead, they collected anyway. I also have reason to believe that they did not contact XXXX to negotiate terms of settlement. They assured me that they disputed the debt in their system but XXXX has to agree to the dispute. Communication with both the agency and XXXX has not been resolved.

I have been disputing this account with the credit bureaus for sometime now. Each time they would say that IC SYSTEMS would verify the debt. So I took it upon myself to ask IC SYSTEMS for validation of the debt. Are they legally able to collect on the debt? How did they calculate the amount they claim I owe? How do they know I am the owner of the debt? Im curious because I have never done business with them or the original creditor. Well, it has been more than 30 days and I still have not received anything proving the debt is mine. They received my letter on XX/XX/2021. Here is the tracking XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX. I was under the impression that if they didn't respond it would automatically deleted from my credit reports. Silence is being in agreeance. I am sure there is a law that proves it.

In XXXX of XXXX, I received a letter in the mail notifying me I had a debt. I called the collection agency and set up a payment arrangement for my XXXX account. I advised my representative that I do n't need this going to my credit report but I do n't have the money to pay the full amount so I set up XXXX dollars a month. I checked my credit yesterday the XXXX of XXXX and it was reported for the amount of XXXX XXXX.I called the company and asked what happened and she said my payment arrangement ended and that they reported it. I was n't aware the balance went up and nobody tried to contact me to make me aware that the payment arrangement had ended. This is completely unfair and unprofessional. Me as a consumer, called and set up an arrangement to resolve my debt. They did not handle this right.

I have received several calls from IC Systems regarding a balance they claim I owe to XXXX. I have repeatedly told their office and prior collection companies that the internet service was cancelled/paid in full when I moved. I have requested validation MULTIPLE times by phone and in writing over the last 6 months. They have ignored my request and continued to report this to the credit bureau. This has caused a lot of frustration as it made my credit score drop by XXXX points and has disqualified me from being approved for a loan. This company has violated my consumer rights by failing to adhere to the FDCPA and FCRA regulations. My next step is to file a lawsuit and attorney general complaint against this company. They need to remove this erroneous tradeline from my credit report immediately.

I have made numerous attempts to fix this issue with XXXX with no effort from their end to fix the discrepancy from their end. It took a month for the company to finally cancel our services after numerous attempts from our end to cancel along with a series of misrepresentation from their representatives. They also billed us double without a justifiable reason. I refuse to pay {$730.00} when we really should only owe {$250.00} according to my calculations. XXXX also felt the need to threaten to levy our bank accounts without having even obtained judgement. Another violation on top of that, they continued to harass me for this inaccurate bill after I sent a request for them to cease and desist communication. To my understanding this is a violation of the FDCPA and should be taken very seriously.

I noticed the original creditor of the debt was XXXX XXXX, but I never open any account under this company. For now, this is all I have done related to my fraud.

I have no idea how the theft took place. I also have no knowledge of any suspects. I did not receive any money, goods, or services as a result of identity theft. I have done many attempts to reach out to the XXXX and XXXX Credit Bureaus but they failed to give me any results or feedbacks about this concern.

After reviewing my credit profile on XX/XX/2020 I identified a discrepancy with an account listed under IC Systems , Inc. and validation was requested on XX/XX/2020. On XX/XX/2020 I reviewed my credit profile again as IC Systems , Inc. had not responded, therefore a 2nd validation request for the account was sent out on XX/XX/2020. Credit report was reviewed again on XX/XX/2020 and the account was still reflecting on my report and I do not believe the account belongs to me nor that the creditor has authorization to legally to attempt to collect on this account and the account continues to negatively affect me. Please strike and remove the account from all 3 credit bureaus until adequate validation has been received proving that the account belongs to me and that all information is correct.

For nearly 2 years, one collection agency after another, harassed me by phone at irregular times with questionable business/collection practices. When I wrote back disputing the facts and offering to pay what was ( less than ) the fair amount owed, the agencies transferred collections repeatedly and continued to place inaccurate record on my credit. they repeatedly did not answer to my fair, final settlement to pay and settle and totally stopped communications this year. IC systems have been less than fair when it comes to my end of the negotiation and writing to settle. copies of my effort to communicate, offer to settle for fair actual amounts owed were in vain, and are available for review, if needed. please help me get this monkey off my back and restore my credit. thank you.

I am a victim of identity theft and I notified the credit bureaus of such by filing a dispute and submitting the documents attached in this complaint. I will use every legal remedy if this fraudulent account is not removed from my account. This company sent me a letter informing me that I have two accounts that was placed with their company for collection. I informed this company that I have no knowledge on either account and I asked for copies of the contracts I signed. I was informed that they have nothing and its currently being reported that to the credit agencies which is damaging my credit and I was informed that it will remain their until I pay on two accounts I have no knowledge of.

On XX/XX/XXXX a collection was placed on my account from IC SYSTEMS. When I called I found out it was for a XXXX account I had back in 2018. Due to the pandemic I couldnt get XXXX on the line, they wanted me to use a self service option. So I called the collection agency back and told them I needed this collection of of my credit and I agreed to pay it for now and dispute it with XXXX later! I finally got a rep on the line with XXXX and she stated the chargers were from unreturned equipment. She found where the equipment was returned! The collection agency stated they will remove it in 30-45 days it should have never been on my credit. They never once even attempted to collect the debt prior to placing this on my credit. Last I spoke about this account I was advised I didnt owe anything!

The creditors calls and harass me daily for debt. I explained the set is not mines. They sent me some billing info with incorrect addresses and i explained are not mines. I was also told by the credit bureaus that my personal data was breached from the credit bureaus and i am still fighting that. I hired a credit repair company to help me with these disputes, as i am new to this. They are not coorporating and states that they are willing to take a settlement. I don't know what else to do so i am finally coming to you guys for some guidance please. I BELIEVE THERE ARE MULTIPLE ACCOUNTS PLACED WITH THIS COMPANY AND THEY ARE COOPORATING

I have talked to them several times telling them my account was closed with the clerk in XX/XX/XXXX. I was told clerk did not close the account out correctly. I moved out before another due date and clerk stated she terminated contract and I didnt need do anything else and I didn't owe any more money. Now they want me to pay for something I didn't have and didn't use. Very unprofessional and should train employees correctly to handle such transactions to keep patrons from going through distress to prove their truthfulness when the employee did not follow through the termination accurately on their end.

This company is fraudulently reporting an account that was already handled and deemed inaccurate last year. I fought with XXXX XXXX over this account and the entire exchange was and is still documented through the CFPB website. Apparently this is some low level, third party debt collector who now thinks they can re-report this to my account and attempt to ruin my financial reputation. This is extremely damaging to me and I will not hesitate to immediately take this to litigation if they do not remove it. I demand this company provide the original, wet ink signed document between the consumer and the alleged original creditor, along with all the other requirements to validate and verify this alleged debt, pursuant to 15 USC 1692g or cease and desist all reporting and collection efforts.

From roughly XX/XX/XXXX through XX/XX/XXXXI had internet service with XXXX XXXX in XXXX, MA. Before installation, I was offered a promotion - I could pay up front for the cost of the equipment in order to avoid monthly rental fees and in exchange I would be eligible for a rebate for the cost a certain number of days later ( I believe it was 60-90 days ). I accepted the promotion, paid upfront, and later received said rebate ( see attachment ). During the entire year of service, all bills were paid on time. In XX/XX/XXXX, when I called to cancel service they charged me for my final bill, I paid the bill in full, and closed my account. Now, more than a year later, I am being contacted by a debt collection agency for equipment fees that I do not owe and debt that I am not responsible for.

The debt collection company known as IC Systems purchased the debt of {$310.00} dollars from XXXX XXXX XXXX and did not send notices and correspondence regarding the debt. Instead, they reported the debt to the credit reporting agencies. I found out about the debt through XXXX XXXX. This is a clear violation of the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act. The debt collection company did not verify that the debt was mine. I never received any notices about this debt, and I do NOT owe this debt. Once I learned of the debt, I contacted the company to dispute it and the company refused to dispute it and remove the collection from the credit reporting agencies. Instead, they sent a letter threatening to report the debt to the national credit reporting agency. I am NOT paying what I do not owe.

I took the phones to the sprint store and handed them over to an employee there. More than XXXX months later, I received a bill from XXXX for the two phones. XXXX claimed I never returned the merchandise. Because so much time had passed, I no longer had the receipts and the store which I returned the equipment to had closed down. I know of two other people who had similar issues with equipment returned to that particular store. It appears the XXXX employees there were taking returned cell phones and never reporting them to XXXX. I believe that this is the reason that particular store closed down.

IC Sytems informed their client that I would need to dispute the accounts with each credit company. I then called IC Systems in attempt to have this corrected and was told the same steps I would need to take to resolve this. IC Systems has ample information to prove they made a mistake. I should not have to spend time disputing accounts with each credit company because they made a mistake. They have the ability to correct this themselves but refuse to do so.

On XX/XX/2021, I received a notification from one of the 3 major credit bureaus that a collections company known as IC Systems INC has reported a negative tradeline for the amount of {$590.00} owed to original creditor : XXXX XXXX XXXX. After researching the original creditor, I see that its a company for a pet membership. I DO NOT HAVE OR OWN ANY PETS!! The collections agency, IC Systems INC has not even tried to contact me via letter to inform me of this alleged debt. IC systems INC did not go through the appropriate procedure regarding verifying the accuracy of this debt. Why would such a debt even exist because I do not own and have never owned a pet. I am beyond confused and shocked and need this negative trade line deleted from all credit bureaus to which they report to.

XXXX has again tried to pull an illegal move again by throwing a very old debt on my credit report. Whats Illegal about it well lets take a look 1. In Texas we have a Statue Limitation Law of 4 years on Debts, which means apparently when this debt was created back in XX/XX/XXXX-XX/XX/XXXX its should be illegel for these people to call my phone or try to collect on a debt that is past the Debt Laws in Texas. 2. I have talked to XXXX and the time they claimed I had service with them, I have told them I did not I had service with XXXX XXXX at the time apparently after my request not to years ago they left my service on with me not even having any of their equipment in my home. Now I will be sending an email to the CEO of XXXX/XXXX contesting this debt that I feel is not owed.

I informed the company that if they did not immediately cease collection attempts before providing written verification they would be in violation of the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act. The company did not comply with providing verification, and has made 2 additional attempts to collect on the invalid debt. The company is in violation of the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act due to continuing attempts to collect without providing written validation.

I have been disputing this account with the credit bureaus for sometime now. Each time they would say that IC SYSTEMS would verify the debt. So I took it upon myself to ask IC SYSTEMS for validation of the debt. Are they legally able to collect on the debt? How did they calculate the amount they claim I owe? How do they know I am the owner of the debt? Im curious because I have never done business with them or the original creditor. Well, it has been more than 30 days and I still have not received anything proving the debt is mine. They received my letter on XX/XX/XXXX. Here is the tracking XXXX. I was under the impression that if they didn't respond it would automatically deleted from my credit reports. Silence is being in agreeance. I am sure there is a law that proves it.

I was threatened, called and harassed about these debts. I had lost my job and was in-between when some of this was happening and I tried to make payment arrangements but nothing worked and now my credit is damaged. I have worked so hard over the last 2 years to pay all bills timely and even to establish additional credit cards to build my credit. After I paid these items that I am referring to, I also took the time to call each and ask that they remove these damaging remarks from my credit report and I also called all 3 agencies to request they are removed as well. Please assist me with getting this corrected. I am a XXXX veteran and while I am privy to benefits this isn't one of them. I am trying to purchase my forever home and at a time where I can enjoy it.

We canceled our phone plan in XX/XX/2021, after moving to an area where we were " guaranteed '' service and finding out our brand new hotspot and cell phone service was useless. It is evident from the bills that we had not used any data ( because we had canceled and therefore believed our account was closed ) and have all the tracking numbers to the devices that were sent back, after waiting months to receive the shipping kits to return the XXXX devices. Now neither XXXX nor IC Systems have sent us anything to notify us of the debt nor of the impending report to the credit bureaus. We only found out about the collection when it hit my credit report, and although XXXX confirms they have received the devices, IC Systems refuses to concede that the debt is faulty and not mine.

I am extremely upset that this collection is on my report and the company is refusing to take accountability and remove it, as it is false.

I want this removed from my credit report and repaired immediately.

I have been dealing with an ongoing stubborn account, I.C. SYSTEM INC. This account is a closed account and has a late payment on it. This is a violation under the FDCPA that a closed account can not have late payments. Furthermore, I submitted a dispute asking them to send me the original signed contract with my signature on it, which they have failed to do. I then sent in a 30 Day Demand after 60 days letting them know that they failed to respond to me, and if they do not respond within that certain time frame under the FCRA my account has to be deleted. STILL NOTHING! I then sent in a complaint to the XXXX, who told me they were unable to identify my account... okay if you can't identify it... erase it!!! At this point, this is my last step before filing for ligitation.

There is a collection account showing up on my credit report ( s ) that I believe to be invalid. This issue was addressed with this company over a year ago. I previously disputed this bill, which was originally with XXXX. I requested billing statements to document where all the charges were coming from as all of the bills they sent me made reference to other alleged accounts, and I was never able to see where the original amount was coming from. Now, over a year later, this collection account is showing up on my credit again. I thought the issue was resolved when they couldn't produce all the original bills. I never received anything recently to give them cause to put this on my credit report again. This account needs to be removed immediately from all the credit bureaus.

I work here in XXXX XXXX, I studied here, and I have been raised and live all my live here in XXXX. Also, I have an excellent credit ( which is affected by this again ). I do not have that kind of behavior about not paying my debts. Those cases were XXXX, and XXXX, which you have in your system. Both of them closed as Identity Theft.

I called XXXX XXXX XXXX because that is where the debt is from and they told me to call the collection agency because they did not have my account number on file. When I called the collection agency about this debt they asked the usually questions and I found out that they had the wrong name on the account. When I asked if it could be removed I was told to contact the credit bureau because they are the ones that made the mistake. I told them that the bureau only reports the information that is given to them and that the company supplied the wrong name. They refuse to admit to the mistake and contact the bureau regarding this matter.

I called them today to get a date of service, I had successfully disputed this to 2 out of the 3 agencies and it was removed. The lady try to tell me in VA the creditor doesnt have to provide it so it stays valid on my credit report. She also tried to tell me its on my other reports ( as mentioned it was disputed and removed years ago ). On my credit report with XXXX it shows a date of XX/XX/XXXX the lady claims the date of service was XX/XX/XXXX, so dates arent lining up and who even knows if this is valid ( which it isnt ) they cant even provide any information to prove the account is valid!

I had contacted the debt collection company to find out why there was a collection against me as the product was paid for at the time of service. They were less than helpful and said that they would not accept proof of payment in the form of bank statements but would be happy to discuss a repayment plan. How else other than a bank statement am I supposed to prove that I paid for something? They then told me to contact the original company and send them the bank statements, and when I did it took them 2 weeks to get back to me. When I finally spoke to someone they had no idea what the debt collection agency was talking about and they couldn't accept the statements. I've been sent in circles with no resolution for something that I've already paid and is ruining my credit.

I.C. Systems has been spamming my phone with upwards of 5 calls a day for over a month. They call and ask for my personal information but refused to give me any confirmation about their company ( to confirm it wasn't a scam ) until after nearly a month of harassing phone calls. The 'debt ' in question was paid for on the spot to the original company I ordered a service from ( XXXX , which I do not recommend after this experience ) and has never been 'debt '. this has all persisted despite multiple attempt to prove to the collectors and XXXX that they received payment nearly 2 Years ago when the original event occurred.No evidence has been accepted and I was offered the opportunity for them to review my case if I paid the 'debt ' first, which makes absolutely no sense.

I am XXXX XXXX XXXX and I am submitting this complaint myself and there is no third party involved. My request for the correction and removable of the erroneous information about my accounts has been diligently neglected by the Bureaus. Despite sending them letters, for the said request, I have not received any response up to this date. Besides, the inaccurate information about my accounts is still on my reports. Therefore, the Bureaus have not complied with the Fair Credit Reporting Act, 15 USC Sections1681i within the time permitted by law and continued reporting as unverified information which now, given all my attempts to address it directly with the creditor, as willful negligence and non-compliance with federal statutes. Below is the account that is reporting :

On XX/XX/2020, I sent a third party debt validation letter to I.C. Systems, Inc. requesting any contractual agreement between me and their agency and to this date no proof of validation has been submitted to me as demanded. I have never done any business with this agency nor do I wish to do so. The alleged debt has a fraudulent charge amount associated with the account. By law pursuant to 15 U.S.C. section 1681 s-2 of the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), I.C. Systems, Inc., has failed to validate the this alleged debt in the allotted ( 30 ) day time frame pursuant to 15 U.S.C. 1681 ( g ) ( d ). They have NO signed contract with my signature stating that I gave them ANY permission to access my credit reports which is a violation pursuant to 15 U.S.C. section 1681b.

Upon receiving my recent Credit report, I have found information regarding debt that is being claimed against me. I've been working diligently to improve my credit, despite having difficulties with collection agencies in the past. I've done my research on debt collection practices and how to manage my personal finances better. I've been saving for quite some time to pay off my accounts and finally did. This was difficult as the collectors were unwilling to work with me at times. That said I was able to pay off the accounts by starting with a new slate on my credit. The collection agencies in question have not removed the accounts from my credit report yet the rest being damaged because of it. They informed me that they would stop reporting the accounts but haven't.

IC systems added a collection to my credit report in the amount of {$5800.00} with date opened date of XX/XX/2021. I monitor my credit report every month and have never seen this collection. I was never contacted at my phone number or address for this collection either. I'm in the process of closing on a home and I feel they did this on purpose to extort money from me. Literally, I'm days away from closing on my dream home and this random collection pops up out of nowhere delaying everything and running my dreams. I've contacted them directly and of course, they do not respond. How can the credit bureaus get away with this! Apparently, XXXX and XXXX just took their word for it too. They also added a remark " Affected by natural disaster '' what does that even mean?

I had vet services through XXXX XXXX Hospital for my dog. I terminated services with the vet ( not having a balance ) in XX/XX/2012 once I received orders that would have me stationed outside of the US and not within the area of one of these vet clinics. I moved at the end of XX/XX/2012 and my dog was transferred to a military base vet. When I logged onto the XXXX account I had set up, I saw that two shots were administered to my dog on or around XX/XX/2012 and charges were applied to an account that had already been terminated. These charges were applied to an account I terminated prior to leaving the US. I was not notified of my pet receiving care at the clinic, I did not authorize my pet to receive care at this clinic, nor did I authorize charges be made to me.

XXXX XXXX agreed to install cable internet service at my residence. They came to the residence, put up wires, but the service was never functional. I informed them of this fact, they told me the only thing I could do was pay the outstanding bill for a month of service and then they could come out for a service call. They have since sent my account to debt collection. This does not seam fair as I never had working service from them, nor did I agree to pay them for service that they attempted to install before it was working. There is no written agreement between XXXX and myself so I am at a loss to explain why they are sending my account to collections or even how it is possible to send an account to collections based off of the non-contractual relationship we have.

The debt belonged to a power company I had n't used in several years. IC System said if I paid off the debt immediately it would be removed from my credit report and not further reported to the credit bureaus. They promised me this debt would be deleted. I paid it off immediately. IC System still reported it to the credit bureaus. I called IC System and they verified the debt was paid, but still they did not properly report this to the credit bureaus for removal. It has been several weeks since I paid this debt in full and the derogatory remark remains on all of my credit reports.

So I did and they sent another bill that was supposed to be itemized so I could see what this mystery charge was for. The bill was again not itemized so I have no clue what the charge is for.

XXXX stated in a phone call on XX/XX/XXXX at XXXX Eastern Time with XXXX that the bill was a mistake, the equipment was returned on XX/XX/XXXX and to disregard the bill. I spoke with XXXX from XXXX on XX/XX/XXXX at XXXX Eastern Time, who confirmed there is be a XXXX balance on the account. I have not received a bill from XXXX since. IC Systems is required to send a notice of collection, which it did not. XXXX has already removed the collection from my account after dispute, XXXX is still reviewing the account.

On Wednesday XX/XX/2019 at approximately XXXX XXXX, XXXX XXXX of " IC System, '' called me to collect a debt ( {$50.00} from XXXX XXXX XXXX ). At that time, I informed him that I would pay XXXX directly because that way they will be able to restart my pet 's health insurance which I was unaware had lapsed. At that time, XXXX told me that " XXXX would prefer that I pay IC systems '' when I asked why that was, he stated that " XXXX may not have my file any longer. '' When pushed, he admitted that he was entirely unaware of whether XXXX had my file. Accordingly, XXXX was attempting to collect this debt by making misleading statements ( a statement as fact, that he had no factual premise for ). Moreover, he proceed to call me a " piddly little person. ''

I asked for debt validation from I.C. system. The company flagged all three major credit bureaus before sending me any proper documents. The only validation letter I received was an address. My name is common and I have been in many mixed file cases with different social security numbers and identity theft. The alleged account is the result of identity theft/ fraudulent and I did not give anyone permission to open this alleged account in my name.

I have a medical debt that was being paid on a regular monthly basis with XXXX XXXX in XXXX XXXX XXXX Utah. The company was accepting my monthly payments on a medical debt from a XXXX and hospital stay and gave me no options to continue to pay monthly until the debt was paid in full. They instead transferred my account balance over to a collection company called IC Systems to collect the payments instead which is now reporting on my credit reports as a collection account. I find this to be incredibly unfair to be damaging my credit report when I have been more than willing to continue paying uninterrupted monthly payments. This has caused me a hardship because my other creditors can take adverse actions against me even though I have done nothing wrong.

I received a letter from IC Systems which is listed as a Collection Agency. They stated in their letter to me that the original creditor and CURRENT creditor to whom this debt is owed is XXXX XXXX. That is misleading by making me believe that I can not dispute the debt under the FDCPA since it is the original creditor trying to collect the debt. Except for the fact that this letter and communication is from IC Systems and the company website plainly states that it is a collection agency. Even if said collection agency is a subsidiary of XXXX, their sole purpose is collecting debts and can not mislead the consumer to believe that they are something that they are truly not. This is a clear violation of the FDCPA in the wording of the collection notice.

XXXX has jacked up my bill from a legitimate amount of {$1000.00}, against which I have paid money, to a grand total in excess of $ XXXX, while not crediting me for payments made. Further, an understanding was reached with aprior collection Company that XXXX retained. I offered to make recurring payments. They couldn't take them. They agreed to call me on a monthly basis to obtain payments. They called me once, and payment was made. You do not even reflect that payment. XXXX does. IC Systems then took the account ; did not acknowledge payments made ; and made a derogatory report to the Credit Bureaus. They also added yet another {$400.00} charge to an already overstated and inflated bill. The situation will likely end me up in a bankruptcy.

A debt collection agency contacted me regarding a back internet bill from a previous tenant that was not me. The equipment was left in the unit. So I took it to ups and dropped it off for them after they contacted me. I didnt need to do this. But I went out of my way to do so. This collection agency has continued to contact me saying I owe money but I dont, they also say they have no record of the equipment being returned. The ironic thing is. I have a current internet service with the same company that apparently claimed the debt. So none of this makes sense. Its not my debt. Ive told them XXXX times its not, and they still continue to call me daily. They also just put a negative remark on my credit report. For {$59.00}. This is insanity.

My cable bill was {$260.00} after shutting off the service, they continued to bill and added more and more dollar amounts to my account. Making my pay of past due monies owed to XXXX impossible for me to pay, now my owed amount is doubled from my billing statement, placing negative reporting on my credit report. This seems to be a practice they do to customers who can't or won't pay them what they ask. I'm a senior citizen on a fixed income, and this is effecting my credit FICO score. the information on the reporting of my past due amount is incorrect and I'm stuck with negative reviews and FICO score.

From the company 's response I have concluded that they are still presenting false information about my complaint. Under the FCRA, unverifiable accounts must be removed within 30 days and if you are unable to provide me a copy of verifiable proof ( i.e proof of the alleged items, specifically the contract, note or other instrument bearing my signature. ), you must remove the fraudulent account. I never signed a contract, note, or other instrument bearing my signature. If the company can provide this information because it doesn't exist. Their failure to positively verify these accounts that I disputed on XX/XX/XXXX ( which has been beyond 45 days ago ), has hurt my ability to obtain credit and I desire it to be deleted from my credit report.

Hi, I received a notification this morning that a collection was added to my credit report. I can testify never received a phone call or written notification from this debt collector named " IC SYSTEM ". This activity dropped my credit score by 45 points. This is so frustrating! I have never dealt with anyone from this company " IC SYSTEM ". They are trying to collect {$320.00} on behalf of XXXX. I have no knowledge of this debt. I dealt with XXXX in the past, but this looks so strange to me because I returned the equipment. That was the one thing I owed them. Equipment was returned! And I have never received a final bill or something stating I owe XXXX money. Why big company like this can be negligent? Thanks for helping me in this matter.

This stems from an alleged amount still owed to XXXX XXXX XXXX, that went into collections. XXXX XXXX XXXX had been contacted numerous times with regards to this problem of a balance that is NOT owed. XXXX XXXX XXXX repeatedly transferred me from one department to another. One would tell me it was paid, and another would tell me they had no record of it but that it must owed because it went collections. XXXX XXXX XXXX would provide not me with documentation justifying the amount allegedly owed. For the last 4+ years I have been trying to get this resolved to no avail. when I changed telephone service providers XXXX XXXX XXXX would not release the phone numbers unless the balance was paid, so needless to say any outstanding balance was paid.

I called I C Systems Collections with a representative from XXXX XXXX on the phone and they also said they can't find the account with my name.

I called IC System ( spoke with XXXX, ID # XXXX ) and explained that I was never notified of debt or given an tracking number. I asked for their documentation that they attempted to notify me of debt and they said that they attempted 1 call and could not leave a voicemail due to privacy and they could not mail a notice because my address was out of date, and no other attempts were made. I asked why other calls were not made before they submitted the debt to my credit report and XXXX states it due to having thousands of accounts and being understaffed.

Received a collection notice from I.C Systems , Inc. for the Creditor XXXX in the amount of {$350.00} on XXXX. I contacted XXXX directly instead of the collections Company to verify my concerns of fraud. I spoke to two customer service members and both verified my name and address were not in their system, and also verified they dont offer services in my area. The 24 digit Account number that was supposed to be my XXXX Account number was also verified fake as it started with an XXXX and customer service said that normally in Wisconsin it will start with an XXXX. My initial thought was fraud due to the fact Ive never had a XXXX account. But this will surely fool lots of people the paper looks really professional and many will be scammed.

I have never been to XXXX Georgia but they are claiming that I received services from them as of XX/XX/2020. My issue is that I again have never been to XXXX GA.

In addition to this, me and my insurance provider reached out to the company seeking resolution but they gave us the run around.

I decided to look at my credit reports from the 3 major credit bureaus and found that someone had used my Identity. I have no idea how the theft took place. I also have no knowledge of any suspects. I did not receive any money, goods, or services as a result of identity theft. I contacted the Credit Bureau and told me to file an Identity Theft Report which I am doing. I appreciate your effort in getting this matter resolved. Thank you. Please let me know if you need any other information from me to block this information from my credit report. Thank you.

I contacted I.C System regarding a letter they sent regarding a bill from XXXX. They said they had not reported the bill to the credit unions, which I had verified prior to calling. They said they were not reporting the bill to the credit unions. We came to a payment agreement. I paid agreed. They reported to the credit union, making it look like the bill had n't been paid in 2 years, which was not true. I paid as soon as XXXX verified the breakdown of the bill was accurate and that I had received credits that I was due. I.C System maliciously caused my credit rating to drop. I.C. System reported after it had processed payment. Prior to our making payment arrangements they indicated they had no reason to report a debt paid as agreed.

In 2019 I reported the collection agency by the name of IC SYSTEMS, who purchased a debt from XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX as well as another agency ( nameless, it has been cleared ). I contacted the bureaus with supporting documents to have the account removed from my report. Both XXXX and XXXX removed the account and also noted that, the company should not be allowed to report this debt again. I also contacted the CFPB, in 2019, regarding this company. The account was removed from my account due to fraud, in 2019. However, this same account has been listed as a collection item, once again, on my XXXX credit report. XXXX later. As proven, I have sent validation letters to this company, that went unanswered after the legal allotted time.

Hello, IC SYSTEM, a Collection agency, did not contact me prior to submitting my information to Credit Bureau or to inform me of my account in their agency. I was not aware of the pending complaint until I received an alert from my credit bureau dated XX/XX/XXXX. I then proceeded to get the contact information from the credit bureau to be able to contact them. I called IC System on XX/XX/2021, and requested them to send the information on file. I finally received a Validation letter on XX/XX/2021. After several phone calls, I came to find out I was not aware and not informed of my collection status. The damage on my Credit report made me lose a position on the last process of hiring and also an opportunity to refinance my loan.

The account showed up on my account around XX/XX/XXXX as a collection. When i called the company they stated that i never mailed my equipment from XXXX XXXX XXXX, but i did. I also provided them with the receipt from the post office that the equipment was send to them. After that conversation, i didn't hear from them for 3 months. They ones again stated that i never send this equipment in and attempted to collect money from me in a very aggressive matter. The reason i cancel my account with XXXX XXXX XXXX was because they charged me for long distant calling with out my consent. They spoke to a person in my house and through them they opened and account under my name. They never spoke to me and i ended up just cancelling this account.

I received an alert from XXXX XXXX, a credit monitoring company that I had a derogatory account from XXXX XXXX and IC System reporting on my credit profile. I immediately contacted XXXX XXXX to dispute the issue. I was told by the representative that the charge was because XXXX XXXX did not receive handsets after I canceled the service. I provided proof that the handsets had been scanned ie. the prepaid return shipping labels provided by XXXX XXXX. I also provided proof that the handsets had been delivered and received by XXXX XXXX. The representative assured me that the issue was resolved, but I received another notification weeks later stating that the debt of {$1400.00} had been sold to IC System by XXXX XXXX. This is not my debt.

I switched phone providers earlier this year. I returned the leased phone I had with them. I also paid the final amount of my bill. All done at the XXXX store, or over the phone with a XXXX rep. However, when submitting a mortgage application I was notified that XXXX sent my account to collections. I call XXXX, and I keep getting the same response. Your account is in good standing. Your account has a zero balance. And that my account was not in collection. I try to contact a supervisor on the phone, and that seems to be impossible. I contact the collection agency, and they tell me that the debt is now at a XXXX balance because XXXX notified them of the bill being paid in full. They refuse to delete the item from my credit report now.

IC System keeps adding/attempting to add itself to my credit report for a bill that is invalid and/or inaccurate. I have disputed this item on my credit report several times over as it has been reported by multiple collection agencies with falsified and/or inaccurate information. IC System collection reportings were previously deleted from my credit report but somehow IC System keeps managing to add itself back on for the same disputed item. It is my understanding that a creditor nor collection agency can report falsified and/or inaccurate information on a consumers credit report. IC System with its various tactics keeps attempting to damage my credit report with falsified and/or inaccurate information. Please put an end to this.

And I have written multiple 609 letters and debt validation letters asking them to validate this debt to me by showing the proper proof this is my debt or remove it from my credit report. They have failed to provide any documentation and I have no knowledge of this debt. Nor have I given my personal identification to this company or the creditor they are representing. Also this same debt is being reported on my credit reports twice. Please have this debt removed from my credit reports as per consumer law they have not legally validated this debt and are inaccurately reporting to my credit reports.

IC systems contacted me once about an alleged bill with some tv company. I know this debt is not mine, they may have me confused with my ex wife, so I explained this debt was not mine and asked for validation of this debt through a letter. No debt validation was sent nor any proof this debt as being mine. I now have this collection showing on my credit files which is completely unacceptable. This collection must be removed from my credit files immediately. IC systems has a poor BBB rating, multiple complaints for illegal and harassing collection tactics, and is listed on watch lists monitoring fraudulent and scam debt collection. I will be filing a complaint with the BBB and state attorney general 's office immediately as well.

After noticing the debt on my credit report, I sent a Debt validation letter to IC Systems ( XXXX XXXX XXXX )., A request was made pursuant to 15 USC 1692g Sec. 809 ( 6 ) of the FDCPA. As stated in the law, IC Systems did not cease collection activities, in fact, they recently continued reporting to the credit bureau. To date, I have not received a letter or phone call from the IC Systems or any attempts by the debt collector to validate the debt they believe I owe. It has been more than a month since they RE-placed the debt on my credit report and 1 month since I requested validation.

I reached out to them because I have never been treated at the hospital or used ambulatory services for the hospital in question or ridden the ambulance. When I called to question the company about the debt they made it very clear that this debt was not made by me nor did I sign anything to be treated in there facilities. They said someone else could have given them my information such as, my child or family member and when I did not respond to a letter sent to an address that I havent resided in over a decade. The debt became mine. This is absolutely against the law. Please help!

I really do n't know what my options are, if any. I had cable in my name and my mother was living with me. I moved out, and allowed my mother to keep the cable on at that address in my name. She then moved and transferred the cable to her new addeess. She ended up accumulating a large bill and was unable to pay it. The debt went to collections without my knowledge of the situation. XXXX XXXX never contacted me, the account holder, that the debt was going to collections, and neither did my mother. I realize I screwed up by allowing my mother to do this, but do I have any options here? My mother totally ruined my credit with credit cards she opened in my name when I was XXXX and I finally got my credit score to a good level.

I sent them a letter via certified mail to ask for validation of this debt and it was delivered on XX/XX/2023. They have not responded to this. Again I will ask them for the forward flow agreement NOT BILL OF SALE. I also asked for proof of contract that I have with I.

I have spoken to them several times and I have disputed this item several times with the credit bureaus and have not been able to get it off my record. This debt is not mine and Im not responsible for it. It's mind blowing how they are trying to make me pay for something that is not mine and worse they reported this to the credit bureaus and it's creating some deep damage to my credit. I was left with no choice and I have placed a fraud alert on my credit reports in order to avoid this situation from happening again.

When he became ill I would help him when I could.

As a son I would just help him when he needed it. After he XXXX XXXX I no longer had access to his private information nor did I need to.

I received a debt collection letter from IC System, but their phone number was disconnected. I looked them up on their website and called that phone number, which kept disconnecting me every time I called. I do not know what this debt is for and I can not get any information about it, since none of their phone numbers are valid. I suspect this is fraud, but since it refers to XXXX, I am concerned because someone recently hacked into my bank account and tried to run charges through XXXX. I have not charged anything through XXXX and do not have a XXXX account. Someone is using my identity without my permission and now I am getting collection letters.

I have repeated disputes on my credit reports since first discovering the debt in 2019. The collection company keeps resubmitting this debt like a new collection. This continues to drop my credit scores. This collection company should not have the right to repeat a debt as new repeatedly damaging a persons credit scores. I told them when disputed that I didnt know anything about this debt and I had an active current account with XXXX the name on the original collection. XXXX is no longer a cable company. This collection company continues to report as a new collection item. How can a company continue to damage a persons credit score by changing dates like its a new account not paid repeatedly. That should be illegal.

My personal information was stolen 2020, authorities were contacted, and a fraud alert was placed on my credit profile. Recently I attempted to obtain a line of credit and realized that accounts that I have no affiliation or knowledge of have been placed on my credit profile. I requested account verification, and this will now be my second attempt to see why these accounts are being reported but are not mine and are a result of identity fraud. Reporting these accounts without my knowledge and consent are violating 15 USC 1681. Not only are these companies furnishing accounts without my consent, but are reporting Identity theft accounts, which again are in violation with the FCRA.. The account is : XXXX XXXX

I closed my account with XXXX before moving from my apartment last year, sent back all equipment and paid all of the bills due. Almost a year later with no communication from XXXX, a collection for {$340.00} showed up on my credit report. I don't know where this came from or how it could possibly be mine. The collection is the XXXX XXXX XXXX and after disputing through XXXX it came back that the account is accurate with no further information. I called the collections company and they said it is from when I closed my account. I have contacted an attorney and they said that a lot of times these are from equipment but I do not have the serial number still as it was over a year ago that I sent the equipment back.

I transferred my cell phone service away from XXXX ( XXXX ). Upon transferring all three of the lines on my account, I was unable to access my online account. I was set up for paperless billing, in which the only way to access bills is through the online account. Since I was unable to access the online account due to no longer having active service, I expected that I would receive a final bill from XXXX. I never received a final bill and suddenly a collection was on my credit reports. I contacted XXXX several times requesting a final bill be mailed to me. They promised me each time that it would be sent, but I have yet to receive the bill and I have no way to verify what charges are being billed to me and why.

I called XXXX to verify this account and I was told that this was opened under a fraud account with my name and address. I spoke to an agent at XXXX and I was told that I would not be liable for this account because it was a fraud account. I tried reaching out to I C SYSTEM the supposed collection agency and I get yelled at also cursing at me and they keep hanging up the phone on me. I need this removed out of my credit report from all three credit agencies in order for me to apply for my auto loan. I need someone to help me.

I have recently, as of XXXX XXXX filed multiple complaints with the CFPB, FTC and all three ( XXXX, XXXX and XXXX ) concerning identity theft.

Even so, her name as is mine, is not similar to the name being reported on my credit report. This needs to be removed immediately because this is indicative of identity theft.

IC Systems is blatantly in violation of the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act ( HIPPA ). I have reached out to them directly as they have willfully chosen to share private information associated with my medical care, medical history and transaction with several consumer reporting agencies without ever having my consent. Additionally, this company is in direct violation of the Fair Credit Reporting Act 15 USC 1681a ( d ) ( 3 ) which explicitly states any medical information and individualized lists or descriptions based on the payment transactions must be excluded from my consumer report. This company is violating this federal law with impunity and needs to be held accountable immediately.

I asked them to not contact me again regarding the matter as I can be no help to them and at this point they are wasting their time and mine. The next day I received a call from the same company asking the same questions. I had the phone on speaker and my current girlfriend was speaking in the background.

Hi, I've had a recurring hit on my credit report and multiple attempts by different debt collectors related to a falsely charged debt with XXXX XXXX XXXX. Seemingly the company kept my name on an account after I had repeatedly attempted to clarify the mistake and the next tenant did nothing to rectify the error. The following tenant was enjoying free services after I had written and called attempting to close these services with XXXX XXXX XXXX multiple times. The collection has been thrown out several times by different collectors and continues to make the rounds, this time with IC Systems. I've been working on this for close to a decade with no results and have filed multiple disputes with Transunion.

The first time the call took several seconds to connect then once connected it dropped immediately ( XXXX ) - a violation of the TCPA worth {$500.00} minimum as it is apparent they are using an autodialer. Today I answered the call and the agent refused to identify herself and failed to provide the miranda statement after asking for my wife. I called back and the agent told me they do not have to identify themselves unless they know who they are calling. I escalated to a supervisor who LITERALLY tried to collect a debt without giving the miranda after finding out who I was, I hung up on the call.

After sending numerous letters and calling XXXX many times the collection was removed. No 11 months later the same account appears again from a different collection company. Same account. Same amount. This was already removed from the bureaus and should not be put back on when it is removed per dispute. I am trying to refinance a loan and this is causing me to have to pay higher fees & interest rate. I have already contacted the credit bureau and ask that they remove it as well.

Had an account with XXXX XXXX XXXX in 2016. During that time XXXX XXXX XXXX had messed up on billing and waived the charge for the modem due to multiple phone calls that had to be made and the miss communication. Since that time IC Systems took over the account. I have reported this as incorrect multiple times and have also talked with XXXX XXXX XXXX on 3 different occasions which they found the information in their notes of the waived charge. They have been asked on multiple occasions to correct this yet 2 years later it is still on my credit report but I have not heard anything this entire time from IC Systems. This is hurting my credit for a debt that is not owed. Would like resolution immediately.

As a result of identity theft, XXXX and XXXX XXXX ( third party collection agency at the time ) confirmed the account was fraudulent and deleted the account from my credit reports. In XXXX of XXXX XXXX sent this same account into collections again and IC SYSTEMS ( a current third party collection agency ) has reported this to my credit once again. Negatively impacting my scores with fraudulent information, XXXX and IC SYSTEMS continue to attempt to collect debt on this fraudulent account. This is against the law. If this is not resolved immediately I will be seeking legal remedies

This morning XX/XX/2018 as i checked my XXXX credit report, i noticed a collection from XXXX XXXX XXXX with an open date of XX/XX/2018. I did not open an account with XXXX XXXX XXXX or any original creditor. The original creditor listed does not provide services in my city or state. This Debt was disputed and removed from XXXX approximately XX/XX/2018, because it did not belong to me and could not be verified or validated. It appears after this debt was removed and deleted by XXXX, the previous collection company I C SYSTEM INC sold it to another collection company after it could not be validated. This in clear violation of the FDCPA which carry 's {$1000.00} fine not including attorney fees.

On XXXX XXXX at roughly XXXX XXXX I was contacted at work by XXXX from a company called IC Systems. She gave a total sum of {$650.00} that she claimed I owed on an Account number ; however when I asked what the debt pertained to and requested her agency to send verification of debt from original creditor she refused to comply saying all debt is digitally submitted and she did not have that information. Then countered that I could pay {$470.00} to her agency between now and Friday or they would take further action. She gave contact info as XXXX ext XXXX. As i continued to try and verify information about her collection attempts I was told to submit payment to an address in XXXX ; XXXX XXXX, Minnesota

I saw a credit alert on my account on XX/XX/2020. I contacted the company that listed it ( IC System ). After a series of phone calls, they had not done anything to provide information on payment, so I sent a registered letter on XX/XX/2020. I had not received a response by XX/XX/2020 and filed a complaint with the XX/XX/XXXX IC System responded to that complaint saying they had sent a letter to me on XX/XX/2020. I received that letter today ( XX/XX/XXXX ) - attached. It does not address the specific questions I asked. They are not being responsive. And, in the meantime, I am trying to resolve this in good faith, but can not proceed without answers from them. How are they being held accountable?

IC Systems contacted me about a bill and I requested an itemized statement but was told no, they said they were sending a fraud packet, and it was never received, thereafter IC Systems added the bill to my credit report, despite knowing there was a dispute and they have no billing statements or other information, except to say my last name is " XXXX '' and then today when I contacted them, it is suddenly XXXX, but still no itemized statement or other information. I asked for the phone number of the XXXX where they received the collection and the woman stated, we don't contact our clients and we don't have a phone number. I asked to speak to the owner-operator and they say he doesn't take calls.

I received a collection letter for a medical bill. When i went to pay online there were 3 options. E-check, credit card, or HSA. When I attempted to use the E-check option, it failed to process 3 times, and directed me to call customer service. To avoid long wait times on the phone, I ended up paying by credit card, which included a {$23.00} convinience fee for a {$390.00} bill. The transaction fee seems predatory because I don't know of a single credit card company that charges an almost 6 % transaction fee. Although, they gave the option to pay by bank account, it almost felt like the option was set up to fail so that people would default to paying by credit card, and paying the exorbitant fee.

IC Systems has been allowed to report negatively on my credit report, weekly since XX/XX/XXXX. Once I noticed how often each occurrence, I disputed each action with XX/XX/XXXX. Each action was corrected ; however, they are still allowed to report within a week of filing reporting negatively on a debt owed on my credit with one week of the first. Their reporting dates are as follows : XXXX, XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX, XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX, XXXX, XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX, and XX/XX/XXXX.

I.C Systems, INC is reporting a frivolous debt on my credit files in which I do not owe them. I have never in my life done any type of business with this company nor is there a contract that is binding me to this company. I have asked them to provide me with a copy of the legal contract with my wet ink signature and the wet ink signature of the company 's representative that shows that I entered into some type of business dealing with them but I was not provided that info. I have also asked them to delete this frivolous debt from my credit in which it still remains. I have never received any sum of money nor merchandise from this company so therefore I do not owe this company any money.

We've even completed a fraud packet through XXXX XXXX XXXX, but it doesn't stop this nonsense. Called IC spoke to XXXX XXXX, clearly was reading a script.

When I spoke to a supervisor at IC Systems, I requested that the collection be removed from my credit because I did NOT pay IC Systems. Rather than IC Systems removing the collection account they sent me a receipt stating that I paid a balance in full of {$1200.00} to them. Which is false. I never agreed to paying IC Systems, i never paid IC Systems. The payment was with XXXX and ONLY XXXX.

My letter was delivered on XX/XX/XXXX, and here is the tracking number XXXX. I was under the impression that if they didn't respond it would automatically deleted from my credit reports.

Please be advised that I.C. System, Inc. has violated the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) by reporting this fraudulent debt and amount to the credit bureaus. If this collection is n't removed immediately from all credit bureaus, I will be moving forward with a formal lawsuit against the company. I 've been in contact with an attorney and have all supporting documentation outlining their failure to adhere to consumer protection laws. If the company does n't remove this immediately and I am forced to proceed with a lawsuit, I 'll also explore the possibility of a class action lawsuit to help the countless other victims that have been damaged by I.C. System 's unlawful practices. Thank you.

I took my daughter out of this XXXX and they continued to charge me. In addition to them checking her in on days she did not attend and I emailed director about it but no one ever responded then the center closed due to staffing issues. I cant talk to anyone there because the center is now closed and they changed staff in our short time being there. I do not owe anything and I want all credit bureaus updated. I let XXXX know in person first about my daughter not coming back then emailed them later on. You will see in the attaches that I messaged them about them checking her in on days she didnt attend and they never responded and now they reported {$350.00} owed and I dont owe anything.

Last I spoke to the representative, they stated they didn't have to answer to me because the debt was no longer there's - and to reach out to IC SYSTEMS INC. This is another fraudulent account. I did not open this account and have told the police that I'm certain a family member or someone who knows me opened this account. Unfortunately I can't prove who - but all I was sent was invoices. This isn't my account. I've informed creditors, collection agencies, and the bureaus. This account is the only one that remains! I am prepared to sue this collection agency.

The company did not send enough information verifying the legitimate balance of the debt. What they mailed to me showed a written-off balance of {$0.00} from the original creditor. After speaking to counsel, I decided to settle the debt vs. it remaining on my credit report while we continue to dispute it. We agreed on a settlement amount for deletion, but now the company refuses to provide a letter based on our agreement after I processed the payment. They are stating that I have to wait 30-45 days and callback before they would consider generating a letter confirming our agreement, and now I don't feel comfortable or confident that they are going to hold up to their end of the bargain.

Received debt collection in the mail from a debt collector for a utility company that we never had an account with. I called the utility company to see if the account was valid and it was not. They said dont even use that debt collection agency. I called the debt collector back and they kept transferring my call and giving me the run around when I told them the account is invalid and that I never had an account with the utility company. According to the debt collection letter they sent me in the mail it will go on my credit report if not resolved within 30 business days. I just want to get this cleared up and to stop these fraudulent people for taking money from myself or anyone else.

I have had NO contact with new company, but it shows as fairly new account. This is not a fair practice as account is actually old and should be falling off my report.

There was not an option specifically tailored to my needs. I had a {$100.00} balance with a utility provided after I ended services with them. It was missed and on XX/XX/XXXX I received an alert from XXXX. I pay all my bills on the XXXX of each month, and included it to be addressed and paid in full on XX/XX/XXXX. I.C Systems reported the same collection 5 times to my credit, resulting an a credit score decrease of 24 points. All the while I am in the process of increasing a business credit line. 24 points is detrimental to a business owner, and reporting the same collection 5 times in one month should not be allowed, and should not effect someone's credit score that dramatically.

Collector says I owe money for additional plumbing services. I paid the plumber in full and on time ( have receipts ). I immediately asked collector to validate the debt and to communicate only in writing. I have never paid a bill late in my life. Despite my poor finances, I offered collector {$100.00} to make the issue go away. This seems to have emboldened them. Collector reported the fake amount to credit bureaus, plunging my FICO score. If my future employer orders a pre-hire credit report, I may not get the job. I moved out of state ( to save money ) and filing legal action there would be an unmanageable hardship.

On my XXXX report there is a collection of {$450.00} by I C System for XXXX. It says it it was opened XX/XX/2017. I just moved to an apartment in XX/XX/2017 and had cable from a cable company. I did try the seven day free trial of XXXX through the internet and it didn't work so I cancelled the same day. There's no way I can owe money on a free trial that was cancelled before the free trial expired. I did a dispute through XXXX XXXX but wasn't able to give much information, mostly just choose from topics. This was put on my credit report without any notice from I C System, which should be illegal. I haven't received anything from them. I hadn't heard of this company before.

On or about XX/XX/XXXX, I cancelled service with my cable provider XXXX XXXX. I was charged a {$200.00} early cancellation fee. I never entered into a contract or agreed to use their services for a specified time frame. The debt was transferred to a collections company. I responded certified letter within 30 days requesting proof that I entered into a written or verbal contract. While they provided a detailed statement, no proof of contract was provided. On XX/XX/XXXX, the account was then transferred to a second collections company, starting the process all over again. I believe the policy to transferring collections accounts on unresolved debt is tantamount to harassment.

This debt ( XXXX Cable Bill ) was the result of identity theft. Someone has utilized my identity to take cable bill under my name. I contacted the agency and paid the bill. I was told that once I paid the debt, it will be removed from my credit report. in fact, I was asked to pay 75 % ( {$110.00} ) of the bill ( {$150.00} ) to clear it out on my credit. Rather, I paid 100 % of the bill ( {$150.00} ) to make sure it will clear on my credit. However, as of now, the transaction still on my credit report, as negative item. As a result, my credit score has decreased considerably, from XXXX to XXXX. Please have this company removed this negative transaction on my credit report.

IC System, Inc., a third part debt collector, is reporting a collection account for XXXX in the amount of {$390.00}. The state of Texas requires debt collectors to be bonded. IC System, Inc. does not possess an active bond in the state of Texas and therefore does not have the legal authority to collect debts in Texas, or report those debts to Credit Reporting Agencies. Accordingly, I demand that IC System, Inc. immediately cease all attempts to collect this debt from me, as well as delete the account with both XXXX and XXXX. Per the Texas Secretary of State 's website, Debt Collector Search tool, IC System Inc. 's surety bond in Texas was cancelled XX/XX/2004.

I have been a victim of Identity theft since XX/XX/2004, this has caused so many problems in my life. My purse was stolen and my identity has been used in so many ways. Many accounts have been open in my name still to this day and I have been contacting companies and disputing with the companies and the credit bureau for over XXXX years. Once I contact the company and provide documentation they would remove the debt, later down the line maybe XXXX months later the debt will appear again. I have become very frustrated with these companies because I have put fraud alerts on my credit report and still have XXXX to XXXX inquiries on my credit report. PLEASE HELP ME!!!

This debt collector engaged in abusive, deceptive, and unfair practices of the FDCPA which it prohibits. They furnished this account that we didn't agree upon and I didn't sign an agreement on. A legal contract is signed by two parties and I did not participate in any of it. More so they didn't follow the proper 5 step validation procedure which make this unfair practices. According to the FDCPA Im entitled to XXXX dollars per violation and clearly they violated my rights. I demand this company to delete this account from all 3 credit reporting agencies and compensate me for the violations or I will have no choice but to forward this to my litigation attorney.

I asked what the debt was for, I.C. Systems couldnt tell me what the debt was for. I also let them know we received no bills, so why would it go straight to a collection agency. Again no substantial answer. I thought perhaps there was fraud going on, so I called XX/XX/XXXX and the collections department assured me that we owed nothing and the account was closed.

How is it that they are reporting to my credit reports a negative account that has been closed? I want them to delete this immediately from my credit report if I.C. System Inc. can not verify this alleged account according to the Fair Debt Collections Act.

I have no knowledge of any contractual agreement or transaction with I.C. System, Inc, and I have never received any services or goods from this company. Despite my request for verification of the debt in question, I have received no documentation or proof that substantiates this claim. Given the absence of any prior knowledge or dealings with this company, this situation raises serious concerns about the validity of their claim, and I am worried that I may be the target of a scam or fraudulent activity.

There are XXXX main issues. 1. The debt relates to a cable box that XXXX collected from me and replaced with a newer model, which they then lost. I called XXXX to report that they had collected the box, they said that they would attempt to find it, and then I received the collections letter without any further notice from XXXX. I do not owe this debt as I did not keep the box. 2. When I try to call IC Systems, I repeatedly enter all information, am told to hold, and then the phone disconnects. There is just no way for me to get in touch. When I enter my information on their website, XXXX they tell me to call, and when I call, I inevitably get disconnected.

This is so frustrating, IC Systems clearly understands my request for VALIDATION OF THE SERVICE ADDRESS. However they continue to only provide me a customer account ledger that does not prove that the service was at my address and is usually produced after service is connected to that particular address. Providing me a copy of a simple work order from the account would show the address and prove this is not my debt. I have requested this information NUMEROUS times and told them numerous times that service was not at my address. Next step will be a law suit for falsely and knowingly reporting and continuing to report a debt that I have disputed was not mine.

I have been saddled with a collection account for what seems to be a three-year old cable bill. I have no knowledge of this debt. When I spoke with XXXX, they stated that they did not have much information on the debt itself. They also stated that they on the spot adjusted the balance from XXXX to XXXX. Then my credit report collection is saying that I paid down XXXX dollars, which I did not. I both do not owe the debt and did not pay towards it. As far as I understand, simply from their information, they have assigned me an inaccurate number. I did not pay XXXX dollars a month for cable, nor did I miss any payments, nor did I pay XXXX of the XXXX alleged.

They didnt accurately answer my request about validating this debt they claimed I had with the them. They sent me a simple bill that anyone can create at their house so of course in todays day and age I will question it. I asked for proof, anything they had bearing my signature. They couldnt provide anything. They couldnt provide any proof that they even owned this debt they claimed I owed them. They re-aged the Date of last activity with the bureaus so that my account would take longer to fall off. I checked my credit report today and realized they havent even noted that the account is in dispute. I feel as if I am in a corner with no other options left.

T V provider sent me into collections stating that I ordered a " pay per view '' movie on their system and I owe them money for it. However, with this particular provider in order to order a " pay per view '' you had to have a " Land Line '' in order to submit in the order. I have not had a land line for over 20 years and have only had my cell phone. When I turned in the equipment upon moving and they audited the equipment the equipment showed that we tried to order a " pay per view '' ... .However, we never actually received the " pay per view '' because the order did n't take in their system. Since we did n't receive it we did n't and wo n't pay for it.

Please promptly look into this matter because this entry is severely damaging my otherwise excellent credit history. Thank you.

Debit card on autopay to XXXX XXXX was canceled, service went unpaid for several months before termination by XXXX At this point the debt was sent to collections agency IC SYSTEMS ( REF XXXX ) unnoticed. Upon checking credit score for home mortgage application, the impact was noticed. XXXX was contacted and the debt was paid, at this point I was informed the collection agency was notified to withdraw. The agency was contacted and stated the debt remained unpaid and would remain in collection status. I was told I had the option of paying them the debt regardless with the alternative of waiting in collection status for two months to possibly be processed.

IC System has placed a wrongful derogatory mark on my credit account based on fraudulently charged fees on an already closed cable account. The original alleged debt came from XXXX XXXX XXXX. All equipment was returned in person and services stopped on the last day of then-current billing cycle. XXXX XXXX XXXX continued to bill me despite the account being closed and in turn sold the incorrect debt, which has been sold now several times over. I have successfully removed this debt from my credit several times in the past already, but it continues to come back as it continues to be fraudulently sold when the owner knows full well it is a debt I do not owe.

IC System is reporting 1 debt as 4 separate accounts although it's 1 account from 1 physician for 1 patient. I contacted the company on XX/XX/2018 and was told instead of reporting the 1 account as a whole they broke up the charges into service dates and reported each date separately. I have a letter from IC System dated XX/XX/2018 which lists 1 total balance of {$1100.00} NO individual charges or service dates listed. On XX/XX/2018 IC Systems reported 4 separate accounts for {$500.00}, {$310.00}, {$210.00}, {$90.00}. This is deceptive and was done purposely to have the biggest negative impact on my credit score. There is 1 account and only 1 amount.

This account was associated with an old rental property I owned. I sold the property and the electrice service then transferred to the new owners of the property. At some point they apparently got behind and the delinquency was mistakenly attached to my account. I thought it was resolved until I recently had a thorough review of my credit and see that it was assigned as a delinquent account in XX/XX/20. The attached document serves as evidence that the power company accepted the responsibility for the error and assured me it would be removed from my credit. I am just now finding out that it wasn't and need to have it removed as soon as possible. ''

This is a follow up from a previous complaint ( XXXX ) filed onXX/XX/2023. I filed a complaint against another collection company and it was closed due to fraud. The alleged debt was obviously sold to a different another debt and they are trying to collect the same debt which is a fraudulent account. Please see attached letter. Furthermore, IC System is not an authorized debt collector for the state of XXXX per XXXX Therefore, I demand this illegitimate debt buyer cease further communication with me immediately. I also demand the alleged debt be removed from my credit reports immediately if it has been reported to the credit reporting agencies.

Regrettably I have to file a THIRD complaint about yet another scamming debt collection agency, this time I.C System in XXXX XXXX MN. This follows on from two other complaints I filed against XXXX XXXX and XXXX XXXX XXXX, all three companies are harassing me for a supposed debt of {$1300.00} I owe to XXXX XXXX. I will reiterate what I have stated in the two other complaints in that I do not have and never have had an account with XXXX and this is complete fraud. As I commented in a previous complaint, I have no doubt that this IC System is in collusion with the other two companies to commit fraud on as many unsuspecting individuals as they can.

I moved out of my apartment in XXXX of 2022 and in my complex had to use XXXX XXXX. Their claiming that I had not returned the modem and router that was sent to me and have sent me to collections. I returned the modem and router to the XXXX store on XXXX XXXX XXXX in XXXX XXXX and have since moved into a new place. I have been trying to raise my credit score and this kicked me down from a XXXX to a XXXX and personally that is unacceptable. I have not received a phone call, letter or any kind of communication in regards to the " missing '' modem and router and now am having to argue with I.C. Systems.

Ic systems inc is not licensed to collect a debt in the state of Florida as i checked and they do not exist. I tried to file a complaint through the Better Business Bureau again this company does not exist. You cant get in contact with them as no one answers the phone. I do not have a contract with them nor have i received any type of communication from them about alleged debt that appeared on my ctedit reports to all XXXX credit Bureaus. They are reporting fraudulent information and accusations concerning a debt that i have no knowledge of. This is a violation of fcra rights and laws. This is an unacceptable practice that is hurting my credit.

The latest credit report I checked still shows that this account is being reported inaccurately and incorrectly, despite that I sent previous dispute letters to your agency. This account is being reported reflecting multiple " violation '' statements. I don't believe the status of this account is accurate. I urge your agency to reinvestigate this account and ensure that correct, fair, and complete reporting is given. I demand proof that you went through all the proper and logical steps that would have been necessary to validate or refute my dispute. If your agency is unable to do so, I demand that this account be removed from my credit report.

I have discovered a debt on my Credit Report, reported by IC Systems Inc. I have disputed it, and it has come back as a valid debt. I have tried to call the company 12 times over he last week to resolve/pay/and get information on this debt, and I can not get a hold of the company. Every number I've tried, an answering service answers and hangs up on me, or they say they are not open, ( I called at XXXX on a Monday, and they are open during that time ). I do not believe this is fair reporting if I can not reach the company to resolve the issue on my credit report. I have exhausted all other options to get a hold of this company. Thank you.

First never got any written notification sent to me about this alleged debt, then sent a letter to I.C. System, inc on XX/XX/XXXX about an alleged debt on my credit report and asked if they could send me information about the debt and the response letter on XX/XX/XXXX was they could not find any information with my name attached to that debt. Waited several weeks and still it remains on my report, called around XX/XX/XXXX to follow up and again ask to send me information and the original contract and was told there wasnt a contract it was a verbal agreement but yet still have not received anything nor has it removed from my credit report.

On XX/XX/2019 I sent a debt validation letter to I.C. System requesting any contractual agreement between me and their agency and to this date no proof of validation has been submitted to me as demanded. I have never done any business with this agency nor do I wish to do so. The alleged debt is in the amount of {$1200.00} which is a fraudulent charge. By law pursuant to 15 U.S.C. section 1681s-2 of the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), I.C. System has failed to validate this alleged debt. They have NO signed contract with my signature stating that I give them ANY permission to access my credit reports as pursuant to 15 U.S.C section 1681b.

I was contacted by I.C. Systems Inc around XX/XX/XXXX about a XX/XX/XXXX medical debt. I have not not heard about this debt so I wrote I.C. systems a certified letter requesting additional information and asking them to verify the debt. I have not received any responses, but instead, have received another collection letter threatening to escalate the issue to their attorney for not attempting to pay or resolve the issue, which is a lie. Today, I sent 2 more certified letters, one to their XXXX XXXX and another to their physical address. And, they reported this debt to the credit bureaus incorrectly showing a Date of Delinquency of XX/XX/XXXX

On XX/XX/2021, a derogatory remark was placed on my credit by XXXX XXXX through IC Systems. I was not contacted about this. I had no idea. On XX/XX/2021, I noticed that XXXX XXXX YET AGAIN sent an account under my name to another debt collection agency. I have previously disputed this same amount ( {$170.00} ) twice before, to which the account was removed from my credit. On XX/XX/2021, I contacted the debt collection agency via email requesting that they validate my debt. I have confirmation that the email was delivered to the Consumer Affairs division of the agency. 33 days later, and no communication has come from the debt collector.
