Indicated shouldn't respond to lawsuit
Complaint: XXXX XXXX has claimed I owe them for a fictitious debt for YEARS. Allied interstate is just XXXX in a long line of debt collection companies that XXXX XXXX has hired to act as their agent to continue this pattern of harassment. I have contacted Allied Interstate in writing and disputed the debt, They have not provided any source documentation as requested within the thirty days I allowed them to respond. Allied Interstate has continued to attempt to contact me by phone continuing this harassment, despite the fact they are unable to provide me with proof of this debt.

Right to dispute notice not received
Complaint: I originally opened the account but released all control to my daughter when she moved XXXX by phone with a XXXX rep XXXX years ago. I have never been billed for the account in the past 7 years ... my billing address is not on the account because everything was through online bill pay ... eco bill. I do n't have access to the account and now all of a sudden it has gone to collections and they are saying I am the original account holder and responsible for the past due balance owed on the account ... supposedly my social is tied to the account so that means you should also have access to my other account in order to contact me about the past due amount. XXXX dinged my credit without contacting me XXXX. When I called XXXX their excuse was we billed the address on file. I know that was a lie because everything was online bill pay. There was no address on file I know that for a fact because the rep asked me for the password that was on her account so they could access the account. I told them I had no clue to the password since it was not my account. I also know my email address was not on her account. When she took over the account everything was changed to reflect her ... email address and password ... only she had access to the account. They had no problems allowing her to take over the account so they should be holding her responsible for the bill. Everything is done through email because that 's what the account preferences were set up as. That 's not acceptable ... they have my address on file because I have my own XXXX account so they ca n't say they could n't find me. I have lived at the same address for 20 years and had the same XXXX account for the past 13 years. You ca n't say its my account and never bill me for it. I have received no paper, phone, or email contact over the above referenced account number for the past due balance. You ca n't have you cake & pie and eat too. I was never given a chance to dispute this ... it just showed up on my credit report XXXX hours ago. I received a text alert from XXXX that this was just added to my report. My credit report reads as such : ALLIED INTERSTATE $ XXXX XXXX account reported on XXXX XXXX, XXXX : Account # XXXX : $ XXXX Creditor : XXXX XXXX Balance $ XXXX Date : XXXX XXXX, XXXX Reported : XXXX XXXX, XXXX : IndividualRemarks : Placed for collection

Getting a loan

Student loan: Non-federal student loan

Can't qualify for a loan
Complaint: In 2006 my XXXX daughter took out student loans and put me in as a consigner without my KNOWLEDGE, AUTHORIZATION or SIGNATURE. She LEFT home since she was XXXX years old and lived with a family member in a different state at that time. I have since asked for proof of my acknowledgedment of cosigning. Such as an email, phone call or a letter asking for my approval. I was told they used electronic signature and they do n't need my authorization. How can they do this? Now they want payment from me. This girl is a professional and has a job, why are they after me?

Threatened to sue on too old debt
Complaint: I got a letter from AlliedInterstate today on behalf of XXXX XXXX XXXX on a debt from XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX. No Full Account number listed. Since XXXX XXXX XXXX could not provide verification of debt on the last one they sent out I am sure they can not on this and the only verification I will accept from these are the followingSigned copy of the contract, Fully payment history, last payment madethis is notice that this is disputed and they are in violation of consumer protection rights actually. I never heard of this company and all of a sudden they are sending my info out to several companies : XXXX, XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX XXXX, XXXX, XXXX XXXX, XXXX XXXX, XXXX XXXX - all of these are LLC. None of these companies have I ever heard of or from. Since my last cc was paid off in good standing they have to prove to me that I owe the bill and not just expect me to pay a bill they say I owe in their computer system because anyone can type up information and put it in their computer.

Itasca, IL

Cont'd attempts collect debt not owed

Debt collection: I do not know

Debt is not mine
Complaint: I have received multiple phone calls over a 2 year period of time from callers who claim they work for Allied Interstate.I assume this is a debt collection agency, but do not know this for fact. The names of callers are XXXX XXXX and XXXX. The phone number on caller id from these callers is XXXX.They ask for a person by the name of XXXX XXXX . ( I do not know if the spelling is correct here. ) This person DOES NOT live at my house and I DO NOT know her or anyone who has a name remotely close to this. I continually tell the callers to stop calling MY phone number for this person as she does not live here, nor do I know her. They continually tell me my phone number has been removed from their information, however, a month or 2 later, they call AGAIN! Please consider this as a formal complaint against Allied Interstate for harassment as they are calling my phone number for a person who is not associated with this number, nor does she live here, and I do NOT KNOW her. I know the debt Allied Interstate is trying to collect is NOT MINE because my name is NOT XXXX! I PAY my own bills regularly and on time. I do not wish to be harassed by debt collectors looking for someone I do not know. They said the phone call is recorded, so maybe you can get their records and verify that I have asked them multiple times to stop calling my phone number. The most recent phone call was XXXX/XXXX/15 at XXXX Central time.
