Account information incorrect
Complaint: Enhanced Recovery Company collection for XXXX XXXX XXXX in the amount of {$100.00}. This account is years old. It was settled. It popped up on my credit report sometime after it was paid. I disputed it when I become aware of it and sent paperwork to confirm to XXXX. It was removed from my credit report for a period of time. I became aware that it was added back again when applying for credit and being denied. I again disputed and asked for dates, and payment history, which I never received. I have not received notice directly from Enhanced Recovery Company, it only keeps popping up on and off on my credit. It shows on my credit as if it was placed in collections on XX/XX/2018, even though I haven't had XXXX XXXX in more than 3 years, it was initially disputed prior to XX/XX/2018 and readded. The only other explanation is someone else fraudulently used my name because I have not had XXXX in years for any services. I have now been denied credit twice before of this false reporting. It is harassment. I have 24 credit accounts in excellent standing with credits of up to {$20000.00}. This one false negative reporting for {$100.00} has stopped me from getting credit. Enhanced Recovery Company placing this on my credit report without sending me notifications through mail, without providing an account history, it being removed more than once after being disputed to only show up again is harassment.

Sued you without properly notifying you of lawsuit
Complaint: On XX/XX/2019 @ XXXX XXXX I received a call from ERC in XXXX Florida. They asked for my personal information without stating the name of their company or the fact that they were a collection agency. They asked for information without even stating the name of their company. Also they threatened me and harrassed me on the phone telling me they were going to file a lawsuit against me and their team of lawyers would take action against me before even telling me what the debt or call was even regarding. This company should be shut down due to their illegal collection practices.

Used obscene, profane, or other abusive language
Complaint: Enhanced Recovery Collection is reporting a debt on my credit report from XXXX. I do not have any contract with Enhanced Recovery Collection, I do not have any business with Enhanced Recovery Collection, nor have I ever done business with this company. My account is still active with XXXX in good standing. I have spoken with XXXX on many occasions since this account started reporting on my credit report. After speaking with XXXX I was told my account was never placed with a collection agency HENCE, I am a valued customer with 12 active business lines with XXXX.
When calling to speak with Enhanced Recovery Collection they are very rude using profanity, hanging up the phone and threaten to garnish my wages. Attache you will find my monthly bill from XXXX showing this account was paid. However, XXXX does not have this account listed with a collection agency because this account is still open with XXXX.
