Dating Secrets Revealed

Posts Tagged ‘agency’

I have been approached by a debt collection agency stating that i have an unpaid debt. However, they have not given me any documents to prove that they are now the owners of the debt. Further, the original creditor has issued me a letter stating that I have repaid the debt in full (though in error). What is the best course to follow? The debt collectors just call at all sorts of strange hours and threaten me….I am so sick of this.

I do not want to pay anyone till they give me the documentatin that they own the debt or else someone else may come along and claim the same thing. Do I just ignore them till I get the confirmations? Do I have a duty to find out or should the burden lay on them?
BTW, it is not credit card debt – just an education debt. What really annoys me is that the creditor made a mistake and they are trying to pin it on me. At no time has the creditor sent me a statement or asked me for repayment even though I updated my address with them. Then this debt collector shows up….GREAT…
Thanks for the answers – but what do I do about the underlying debt if they do not offer proof that they are the ones who own it?

I have written them a fax stating what I require from them to prove that they own the debt but they have not provided one shred of evidence.

Can they try and PIN it all on me when the creditor made a mistake by not sending notices to my updated adress even though I gave it to them?

I suspect they do not have the necessary evidence to bring a case to court as the creditor made a mistake. Should I wait to see if they sue me before trying to settle or should I do it now?

…because parrots don’t like to be lonely.
