This complaint if being filed after multiple attempts to explain and resolve a dispute with XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, currently being represented by the Law Offices of Gregory Alexandriades. In XXXX an agreement was reached by myself and XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX in which a payment plan would be instituted to resolve the balance of the account. The stipulations of the agreement were monthly payments would be due by the XXXX of every month and payments were to be paid directly to the legal counsel representing XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX and not to XXXX directly. In exchange for timely payments, no interest or penalties would be assessed throughout the 12-month agreement and all payments made were to go to pay down the existing balance. In XXXX of XXXX, I received a statement from XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX for the XXXX upcoming assessment inclusive of the aging balance. However, the aging balance was accruing interest and portions of the monthly payment were going toward said interest which inflated the amount due on XX/XX/XXXX XXXX even though all payments were being made on time in XXXX. The Law Offices of Gregory Alexndriedes is attempting to collect interest not granted under the terms of the agreement and has applied payments to said interest, therefore inflating the balance due for the XXXX annual assessment and the current balance due. They are now refusing to accept further payment unless I pay the full balance of XXXX inclusive of interest not permitted under the contract. On XX/XX/XXXX. I received a letter of Intent to file a lien for the outstanding balance of XXXX. On XXXX XXXX, XXXX. I had a phone conversation with a staff member/paralegal by the name of XXXX to dispute the debt and I made a request for the statement of account for the charges XXXX alleges, the dates payments were made and the date in which interest was applied. On XX/XX/XXXX, ( XXXX ) emailed the attached statement of accounts. This statement of accounts is the exact statement provided by XXXX and clearly shows applied interest outside the terms of the contract. XXXX applied to interest on the first of every month and deducted XXXX-XXXX dollars monthly from each payment for interest. XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX were applying interest based on the date the collection agency was forwarding the payment ( roughly, 2 weeks after I had made the payment to them ) and not the dates payments were actually made. The dates XXXX references on the ledgers are the dates XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX received forwarded payment by the Attorney, not the dates the payments were made to the Attorney. I've tried multiple times to explain the discrepancy to both XXXX and the collection agency and offered bank records show all initial payments were, in fact, made, on or about the XXXX XXXX of every month, pursuant to terms of the agreement. However, they insist the full balance is due. On both XX/XX/XXXX and XX/XX/XXXX, I asked The Law Offices of Gregory Alexandriedes to provide verification of my payment dates as well as an explanation as to why the offices had issued 2 separate statements of accounts, after I pointed to the interest allocation and discrepancies on the statement emailed on the XXXX. To date, I have not received an explanation on either : the verification of dates payments was made, nor, an explanation as to why you have now presented another version statements of accounts that contradict the other and seem to remove and adjust the interest in the dispute.

A lien was placed against my property by the XXXX after they received notice of a bankruptcy filing in XXXX, the amounts in which they have placed an illegal lien was covered in the bankruptcy. The company has refused to communicate or share account information upon request. In addition, I would call XXXX XXXX XXXX they would say, we can not assist you as your account is still with out Debt collectors office. I am refinancing my home and was told of a lien being filed in XXXX, I made multiple attempts to obtains he payoff from XXXXthrough XXXX/XXXX/XXXX until I overheard a conversation stating they were delaying the response to file another lien and to add more money on the pending lien in question. XXXX XXXX XXXX office assisted with getting the lien payoff letter and it went from {$630.00} to {$8300.00} from XXXX to XXXX with a per annum of 6 %. Mind you, I filed bankruptcy in XXXX XXXX, discharged XXXX and second discharge XXXX, the same debt collecting co Law offices of Gregory Alexandrides submitted a claim of XXXX to the bankruptcy courts for a lien from XXXX thru XXXX ( was not aware of this lien either ), but within the same allotted time of 3 years of this current lien XXXX through XXXX their is a {$5000.00} excessive fee of charges. Please note the ledger submitted has always been handwritten and very unprofessional which makes it easier to commingle funds and fraudulent activities to be altered. My issues is they created a debt by refusing to communicate or share details of the account, secondly, how can a lien of XXXX accumulate XXXX in fees and interest when no notices or information has ever been shared. I believe they ( Law Offices of Gregory Alexandrides ) are aware of their unlawful actions and practices and will take advantage of those who they feel do not have a voice or say-so in how things are being done.

I was experiencing severe financial hardships, and I fell past due in paying my HOA dues. I was current and paid the HOA fees on time from XX/XX/XXXX up until XX/XX/XXXX is when I fell behind. I paid on time quarterly for six years. I was in and out the hospital in both XXXX and XXXX and became consumed with doctor bills which caused me to fall behind on payments. As of XX/XX/XXXX my balance was {$560.00}. As of XX/XX/XXXX my balance jumped from {$560.00} to {$1500.00}. I am not sure how the balance nearly tripled in a matter of three months. If I couldn't afford {$560.00} how can I afford {$1500.00}. They are charging late fees and legal fees which I don't believe are legal. I made payment arrangements, however I could not afford the payment plan. I contacted them today and my balance has increased from {$1500.00} to {$2000.00} which is ridiculous. I was prepared to pay the amount I owe but I can not afford the illegal excessive late, collection, and legal fees. Again I am willing to pay but please let me know the amount I owe. In addition I am an employee at the CFPB and I will be escalating this to our Enforcement division because I know this is illegal. I was told I was charged {$1000.00} in attorney fees which is the cost to prepare documents. It is no way it is legal to charge a consumer almost {$1100.00} to type and mail in documents. Furthermore I don't even believe this is a law firm this a collection agency posing as a law firm. I will also be filing a complaint through the Congressional office. Again I am ready and willing to pay what I owe but I will not be paying the illegal fees you all are adding to the balance.

I contacted the Law Office of Gregory Alexandrites, LLC via phone requesting that they validate not verify a debt they are attempting to collect from me they claimed I owed and was informed I had to request it via email. I specifically asked for a Statement of Accounts and requested validation on five different occasions XX/XX/18, XX/XX/2018, XX/XX/2018, XX/XX/272018 and XX/XX/2018, along with 4 different occasions via telephone yet the firm failed to provide the requested information and has ignored the 4 voicemails I have left for their office manager XXXX . They then sent me a final notice letter after not responding to any of my request threatening to file a lien on my property. They have not provided me with any statements or validation after my numerous requests. I have attached supporting documentation. I am asking them to provide the requested information or cease harassing me.
