My husband and I submitted a townhouse rental application at an apartment management company in XXXX XXXX 2017 in the state of XXXX, On the apartment rental application there was a lined area that encouraged the potential renter to add addition info about ones Credit History. I thought this was an odd request on the rental application, so I asked the Leasing Agent, what could this area of the rental application could be referring to, and the Leasing Agent said, " if you had bankruptcy or something like that you may want to put that down on the application. '' I complied, and submitted the application, however, 3 days went by and I then received a phone call from the Leasing Agent, she tells me that I did not qualify, because of something found in my husband 's background check ... ..in which she stated that she could not see any personal information on her system but for me to contact the " XXXX XXXX XXXX, she then tells me that I could not receive my deposit of {$200.00} back. I said " why not?, the Leasing Agent stated to me that I did not list any information down in that lined area of the application concerning my husband 's background and that a potential XXXX XXXX is the possible result of the denial of the rental application, in which I stated " there 's nothing like that in my husband 's background and we lived in the state a little over three years therefore, what could possible have been reported '' This conversation concerning the denial of the apartment/townhouse took place over the phone with the leasing agent. XXXX..Here 's the issue I have with this Leasing Agent and her Conversation with my husband and I with the initial visit ... ... ..

1 ) My husband was not a financial contributor to this potential lease, So why was his Ss number submitted, For credit reporting purposes? The Leasing Agent, was told that and it was understood fully by her ... ... ... ..

2 ) My husband did not sign or agreed to any background check ... ...

3 ) The Leasing Agent stated that she could not see/ or had access to the background check of my husband? ... ... ... So Why the denial of the apartment? Who made the decision of denial of the housing?

4 ) She took the {$200.00} dollar deposit for the apartment before I signed and completed the application.

5 ) I compared two different rental application from the same management company ... and it appears that the lined area of the submitted application was altered or lined area was added to the application, is that legal?

6 ) I am disgusted with this apartment management Leasing Office and I Want the Return of My Money, they are Predatory in their procedures and in communication.

7 ) On the Actual XXXX XXXX Report letter/ Report, it states that " We do not make rental decisions and does not set the eligibility criteria for any property. " ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ..However, on the very next page of this report that Identifies the " XXXX XXXX Company 's Name, It states under my name and my husband 's name on his report, " The Property Screening Result : Application Result :, REJECT APPLICATE ... ... .So who makes the decision? It 's the " XXXX XXXX XXXX ... ... ..Another LIE on PAPER!

8 ) I called up the XXXX XXXX XXXX representative and He could not tell me from what source their information was coming from exactly, I pressed harder for an exact source and then I was told that " XXXX '' does a court reporting/background check. I stated to the representative, '' I never heard of a credit bureau do a criminal background investigation/ reporting ''. I WAS TOLD A BOLD FACE LIE! I have the actual XXXX XXXX Report copy, XXXX is not on it at all.

9 ) I WANT A FAIR HOUSING INVESTIGATION Concerning this " Apartment Management Company 's Practices, and an Investigation of this " XXXX XXXX XXXX 's information reporting data sources which should be TRANSPARENT to the public.

10 ) I WANT THE RETURN OF MY DEPOSIT and CREDIT REPORTING CORRECTION MADE TO MY REPORT AND MY HUSBAND 'S CREDIT REPORT, ASAP!

I rented an apartment at the XXXX at XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX and moved out of the premises XX/XX/XXXX. I was told that I would have to pay the relenting fees of early termination of lease of {$700.00}. I contacted the apartment because I had received a bill for approximately {$2400.00} from a collection agency called XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX On numerous attempts. I tried to get the issue resolved with the correct amount being owed. I spoke with the apartment staff that made an adjustment and indicated that they did see an error in the amount that I owed and would adjust it. The adjustment was made to {$1400.00} I tried on numerous attempts to advise the collection agency of the correct amount and they told me they needed a copy of the corrected ledger. I submitted a copy of the corrected ledger, then they said the copy had to come from the apartment complex directly. The apartment indicated they sent a copy over as well. I made an initial payment of {$430.00} toward the balance and had made arrangements to pay the balance of {$1000.00} on XX/XX/XXXX. I got laid off work and contacted the collection agency and spoke with the unit manager XXXX XXXX @ Ext XXXX to stop that payment and make other arrangements for the {$1000.00} balance. They refused to take my request and told me to call back on Monday and speak with XXXX XXXX the account representative. I asked that since you are the manager, how come you could n't assist me. He said because I just cant. He also denied having the corrected amount that I owe and kept indicating that I was paying on a settlement. I tried to explain to them that this was n't a settlement because the amount of aaproximately {$2400.00} that they have is incorrect in the first place so there is no settlement. I have been placed on hold for long periods, been refused to get proper assistance to get the issue resolved and am very frustrated and concerned with how I have been treated and how they refuse to adjust the correct amount owed. Please help.

I called this collection agency after haven received a mailed document that I owed money to a previous apartment complex. The amount was erroneous. I wrote them in the allotted time; provided the copy of the lease that showed I had XXXX in deposits that was not being deducted from the balance. In a phone conversation they agreed and advised that they would be sending it back to the apartment complex for review and adjustment. Two weeks later they called my cell again requesting the wrong amount. I advised XXXX if she could read the notes and advise me what happened to the investigation. She could not. Instead she advised me that I didn't need to be so hostile. I was not. She advised me that since I was refusing to pay....I advised her per my letter to XXXX at no time was I refusing to pay my bill, I am refusing to pay the amount because it is not accurate. I asked to speak to a manager. XXXX came on the line pretending to be a manager. XXXX advised me there was no investigation going on it wasn't ever returned to the apartment complex for an adjustment and I would pay the XXXX if that's what I wanted but the account wouldn't be considered paid off. He then said let me get you to a manager because I don't like the way this call is going. And put me on hold. In comes XXXX XXXX. XXXX regurgitated the same things her coworkers said. At this point in frustration I yelled out as she kept talking over me!! These employees and this company are disgraceful!!! I have never experienced such rudeness and disrespect or lack of assistance in getting this matter handled. If I don't owe the amount, all they have to do is bring it back to the apartment complex for an adjustment and I would pay the final bill, which I still intent to do on the XX/XX/XXXX. I can't believe that XXXX XXXX is allowed to do business like this.

I was first contacted by Pinnacle Asset Management ( PAM, LLC ) on XXXX XXXX, XXXX. The guy ( XXXX XXXX ) told me that I had a online loan of {$150.00} from XXXX that I owed for and since it had been so long, with late fees, etc. the amount I owed was nearly {$400.00}. He told me it was scheduled to go to court in XXXX XXXX ( the county I lived in at the time ) on XXXX/XXXX/XXXX. He told me if I made a payment immediately he could settle for {$270.00}. I told him I did not get paid until Friday but then I could pay it. He told me I had to go ahead and give my debit card info and he would run the card on Friday and if I did not do it then it would go to court the next day and my wages would be garnished. I asked him how did I know he was who he said he was. He got really defensive with me about it. I ended up giving him a card number from my XXXX XXXX card. After we got off the phone, I called the original collection agency who had the account and they said it sounded like a scam to them. At that time, I cancelled my card immediately. This is wrong to scare people into paying something that could or could not be legit. He scared me so bad I was willing to not pay other bills I owe to pay this and keep from going to court or getting my wages garnished. I went to XXXX to check the number he called from and got information that this is a mobile phone with XXXX. When I asked him why he was calling from a cell phone he told me he was not. This business is lying to people and misrepresenting themselves!!! I almost felt like it was personal with this guy that he punish me for my XXXX debt that I am not even sure still exists. I am still looking into it.

My name and my father have the same name and our social security numbers are off by XXXX digit. My father had an account with XXXX that went to collections. I currently have a XXXX account that is in good standing and always has a credit going into the next month. I disputed the debt to have it removed from my credit reports. Pinnacle ( after removing from credit reports ) sold the debt to XXXX and they are going to report it. When Pinnacle sold the account they did n't sell the entire record showing the disputes from me. I called Resurgent to see what I needed to do, they asked for my name and social security number, I provided both, they said " ok, we will associate this name and social security number with this account now. '' I have no idea what to do or how to make this stop. XXXX told me they could just keep selling the debt and they do not have to provide full records so we could keep having this issue in the future. They also told us our only option was to file a police report for identity theft. We called XXXX - XXXX does n't have this past due account associated with my social security number in any way. XXXX says when they sold the account to Pinnacle they used the social security number for my father. So he did n't steal my identity Pinnacle and XXXX just used my information.

In XXXX we had an apartment at XXXX XXXX in XXXX, WA with a roommate. That roommate quit his job and became unable to pay his portion of the bills. We were evicted. On XXXX XXXX, XXXX, XXXX XXXX XXXX ( aka XXXX XXXX ), XXXX XXXX filed for and received a judgment in the amount of {$2500.00}. On XX/XX/XXXX, A Writ of Garnishment was then issued in favor of XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX XXXX, and assigned to XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX. That Garnishment was served on one of our employers. That Garnishment was paid in full through the Continuing Lien on Earnings. XXXX XXXX has continually and fraudulently reported on our credit reports that we still owe over {$8000.00}. We disputed those reports. XXXX removed them ... for a few months. They then RE-reported on our credit reports that we still owe over {$8000.00}. We have disputed it again. We have attempted numerous times to contact them to get this resolved. No phone calls are returned. If we had actually owed the amount they are claiming, a Judge would have issued a Judgment and Writ of Garnishment for that amount. However, the Judge issued them in the correct amount of {$2500.00}. That amount has been paid. Please note as well that XXXX XXXX is under investigation for fraud.

After being discharged from bankruptcy on XX/XX/XXXX . This particular law firm that harassed me all through the process was able to go back to the courts and claim that they have tried to reach me through mail and had sent the marshals to serve me all in the months of XX/XX/XXXX thru XX/XX/XXXX . None of which is true. I have lived in the same complex since XX/XX/XXXX . They claim is I owe {$1400.00} for a apartment where I once lived. This was in my bankruptcy. They have contacted me back then through different agencies. So since they made claim that they tried to contact me, they were able to have a Judge place a judgment lien on me. I only learned of these actions through a credit monitoring account I have. By the time I found this out it was too late. How ever I did reach out to the firm that represented me before and was told that he would try an get to the bottom of this and get it straightened out. But I have had no response from him. My rights have been so violated. I went thru all the steps required in my bankruptcy, and still this firm who has no regard for my rights have gone after me under cover and won..!!! What do I do..??

The company that has called me is Pinnacle Asset Management. They have stated that I owe a debt for a payday loan. However, I have never taken out a payday loan with the company that they are claiming they represent. When I asked for evidence that the debt is valid they refused and only stated that I have had a letter sent to my home. I have not received any such letter nor have I received an email which they also claim they sent. When I contacted the rep to request that they validate the debt with either the original contact information of the creditor or by providing me with documentation showing that I signed off the " loan '' they refused to comply and stated that they did n't have to do that since they were the mediator. The rep name XXXX then proceeded to insult me by calling me professional debtor. He then pulled up my linked in account and proceeded to read off the information on my linked in account and threatened to contact the people in my list by telling them that I was a professional debtor. He then hung up on me and would not pick up my calls afterward. Another rep was calling my mother and other friends and family.

XXXX XXXX claims that I owed them early termination fees on a modem contract. I paid my last bill and told them to cancel my contract because they breached the terms of an all inclusive and unlimited contract by slowing my modem to crawling speeds. Before canceling I called to complain several times and they finally agreed that they were blocking my use because it was too heavy with lots of hours watching videos. Now they have sold my so called debt of XXXX usd to Pinnacle, a company that never answers telephone calls. XXXX is also saying that they no longer own the so called debt and that they can not and will not get involved. This is abusive practice against a consumer because now I am left with a negative item on my report and i can not talk to anyone who can help. Neither XXXX or XXXX can help either. Please help stop the practice of selling one 's information to third parties and allow consumers to resolve issues with the original company. And by the way, neither XXXX nor Pinnavle will send me statement showing that I was ever billed the termination fee or a copy of my final statement. Thank you.

Received phone call from XXXX. They informed me that someone was trying to locate me. Would not tell me who and told me they were with Judicial location services ( which does not exsist ) and gave me a case number " XXXX '' and a XXXX to call and get taken care of. When I called the number it was a generic voice prompt. The person who got on the line said they were with pinnacle proceedings. I told him thank you I was trying to figure out who called me. His response was " we dont call people XXXX ''. And hung up. I never identified myself in the phone call. I found out that 5 mins after I got called my mother-in-law also got a call saying someone was trying to locate me and they wanted my place of employment.

Called claiming to be an investigator from pinnacle and left a message, claimed that they spoke with my ex wife, and if I did n't call back by the end of the day I would be facing litigation. Very aggressive and threatening. Claimed they sent certified information to my address but I 've been living in the same address for 11 years and I 've got zero certified information from anyone close to that name.
