Didn't receive enough information to verify debt
Complaint: In XX/XX/XXXX I canceled XXXX XXXX XXXX cabel, land line and internet services do to moving and at new address which was in different county this XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX was not avalible. All XXXX XXXX XXXX equipment was returned to XXXX XXXX XXXX and balance was paid infull.
Sometimes in earily XX/XX/XXXX I received email that new updated equipment was sent to me at my old address ( I no longer live at that address since XX/XX/XXXX ) and upon receival of this email I lived at different address and county. I immediately called XXXX XXXX XXXX to resolve this issue and I was told that it was a mistake on XXXX XXXX XXXX 's end and that it will be taken care of. Few months later I received a letter stating I was sent to collection for non returned equipment, I immediately called XXXX XXXX XXXX to resolve this issue and it was extremely difficult for them to understand what happened. I was told I will get a call back by supervisor to resolve this issue and I never did, every few days I would call back and it was taking a lot of times and frustration to explain same thing over and over again.
At this time I was told that I was also being charged for land line that I no longer have and I was paying for it for two years and I could not be reimbursed for it but then yet again I got sent to collection for equipment not returned at address that I no longer live. All of this information is correct and it is in XXXX XXXX XXXX 's history file, it just takes someone who's willing to look in to this issue and see that two years later I was sent replacment equipment at address that I no longer live and I did not have XXXX XXXX XXXX cable and internet service since XX/XX/XXXX. The amount claimed that I owe is {$200.00} Thank you very much.

Debt was paid
Complaint: XXXX XXXX was my cable provider at one point. The service was not disconnected at my request and I never received the final bill at my forwarding address. I contacted the company several times by phone to inquire about the final statement. Each time I was given the round around and transferred between representatives. I never received a final bill. I was contacted by a debt collection agency and was furious. I immediately contacted XXXX XXXX and this time was connected to a supervisor and proceeded with to pay the outstanding balance. I was informed the debt collection agency would not contact me again or make any credit report listings. That information was false and I now have a negative credit listing from Diversified Consultants.

Attempted to collect wrong amount

I contacted them on several occasions to ask for the proof the account is mine, or to verify their legal right to collect.
I want to file this compliant because, they are attempting to re-age this account and purposefully misrepresenting information, either way its being done to harm my name and reputation.

Cherry Brook, MA
Debt was result of identity theft
Complaint: In XX/XX/XXXX, I was notified that a collection account under the name of Diversified Consultants was placed on my credit report. I contacted the company and confirmed that the collection was for a XXXX account opened under my SSN in XXXX that went delinquent in XXXX. My biological father has, in the past, used my SSN to open fraudulent accounts and was XXXX by the state of NC a few years ago, XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX for his crimes. I was advised by my credit monitoring agency to dispute the claim with both XXXX - the CRA that the collection appeared on - and with XXXX directly. TransUnion concluded their investigation and removed the account from my report. I was further advised to file a police report and an Identity Theft Report with the FTC, which I did. Unfortunately, XXXX refused to do so stating that my fraud claim was denied due to - " Information on the account ties to a relative in a public records search or the documents you provided. '' This seems unacceptable that I would be denied a fraud claim simply because the individual who committed the fraud is a relative of mine, with whom I have had no relationship with in well over two decades.

Account information incorrect
Complaint: 1. XXXX said they sold the debt, making Diversified a debt purchaser.
2. On my Credit reports it shows them as the current holder of the debt, meaning they are the debtor and not sprint.
3. XXXX didnt sent billing statements to me because they entered or misspelled my home address.
4. The debt collector didnt sent me the correct correspondents and they admit they had the incorrect address information.
5. I legally have the right to request verification of this debt, noting was sent to me and my rights were violated!
