Communication tactics

Debt collection: I do not know

You told them to stop contacting you, but they keep trying
Complaint: My wife and I are getting repeated calls almost on a daily basis. Some are robotic calls ( not a real person ) and some are live people. I have requested the calls stop, but they continue. This feels like harassment. The people from the live phone calls scared my wife with scare tactics to make us pay for unknown debt collection. No company should try and scare you or threatening you like this. The collection company will not give me any information retaining to the collection either. I am seeking seeking further help about harassment with law enforcement or family lawyer.

Now they have their collection company Hunters Warfield harassing our credit reports for $ XXXX and the judge did not rule us to pay no $ amount to them. I have called the Clerk of Courts to see if they had anything that was ruled by the Judge for us to pay and they says no nothing at all and the final Judgement is closed. we also forward the courts a copy of the emails sent to us from the property manager was demanding the keys over the money order for rent that month then they filed eviction saying we did not pay our rent they should have stated the truth that they didn't accept the rent money order. they had no reason to have treated us this way we feel very discriminated against and now harassed for $ XXXX dollars by their collectors Hunters Warfield and for what? We forwarded documented proof to the judge.so where is the open judgement of owing $ XXXX on our records? There is none Exactly we are being discriminated against why?? There was no reason for them not to except our rent payment why did we have to be treated so differently and still is with Hunter Warfield reporting to our credit reports. then lied to evictions courts 100 percent. still being discriminated against through Hunter Warfield this is so senseless. but we will get justice served by all legal means necessary.

Debt collection: Other debt

Debt is not yours
Complaint: According to my XXXX XXXX account, Hunter Warfield is falsely alleging I owe a debt of {$640.00}, this was placed on my XXXX report on XX/XX/XXXX. Hunter Warfield has consistently harassed me by telephone since then. They call every single day from fake telephone numbers. Each day I have to block anywhere from three to five different telephone numbers. My number is on the Do Not Call registry. Hunter Warfield is in blatant violation of the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act. I demand Hunter Warfield cease and desist all future communications and that it remove this falsely alleged debt from my credit report. According to state, federal, and municipal Fair Debt Collection Practices Acts. I have no legal duty to work with third party debt collectors. I refuse to communicate with Hunter Warfield and demand the IMMEDIATE removal of this falsely alleged debt from my credit report. This false allegation was originally made by XXXX XXXX. We leased an office space from an XXXX XXXX building called XXXX XXXX. We held the lease for many years until XXXX XXXX hired a new manager. The new building manager instituted all sorts of unwanted changes. She ran the building like a dictator. She kept getting into everyone 's business and every lessee hated both her and the unwanted changes. She kept telling small business owners how to run their businesses and how to keep their shops. She kept increasing rent and adding unwanted additional charges. She falsely accused lessees all the time when anything went wrong or was broken. Worst of all, she made XXXX and XXXX XXXX comments to a XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX. She created a hostile work environment for everyone. We were lessees in XXXX XXXX from XXXX to XXXX, in that five year period we documented, took pictures of, and took videos of every single thing that ever went wrong in the building that management failed to address or fix, or often made worse. If this debt is not immediately removed from my credit report, every single one of these videos, photos, and documents will be made public on social media. We will also make public every single XXXX and XXXX XXXX or other inappropriate remark that created such a hostile work environment we were forced to leave XXXX XXXX. We will not cease until we have put both the XXXX XXXX, XXXX and XXXX XXXX out of business. I might also point out that XXXX supported XXXX in XXXX, and are staunch Trump supporters, despite his collusion and obstruction. We have already successfully put other property owners out of business who attempted to XXXX us over. I will point out finally, that I served two, consecutive, two-year terms as a XXXX for the XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX. I know the Director of XXXX XXXX Anti-Discrimination Office personally. Take this off my report immediately, or we will do everything in our power to put Hunter Warfield, XXXX XXXX, and XXXX XXXX, XXXX out of business for good and to expose your XXXX, XXXX XXXX anddiscrimination against persons with XXXX. We will also file a direct complaint to both the State Attorney General 's office, with all of the evidence above described, as well as a complaint with the Mayor 's Anti-Discrimination office with all of the evidence above described, take this off of ALL of my credit reports immediately. We paid our rent, any falsely alleged damage is not our fault or responsibility, the building was already torn up and run down, and we have all of the documented evidence of this. We thoroughly cleaned our workspace when we left and we took photographs and video of the entire space as we cleaned it, we owe neither Hunter Warfield, nor XXXX XXXX, nor XXXX XXXX a single penny. Take this off our report or we will take legal action.

Incorrect information on your report

Credit reporting, credit repair services, or other personal consumer reports: Credit reporting

Personal information incorrect
Complaint: I noticed this debt on my credit report. I informed the company they are reporting inaccurate information such as my name. They responded with a copy of a signed lease. The name on the lease does not match the name they are reporting on my credit report. I reached out for debt validation on XX/XX/2019. I also reached out the XXXX and advised that there is an incorrect name on my credit report. I was told by XXXX that Hunter Warfield would have to correct because it was linked to an account. I never received a summary of the charges and where this amount accumulated from. I also requested a copy of the application to be sent to me with the name matching that is being reported on my credit report. Being that they are reporting inaccurate information such as my name, and have failed to provide proof of the debt, other than a lease, i am asking to have this removed from my credit report.

Debt is not yours
Complaint: I was involved in a civil action against a property management company in XXXX, after being denied the amount that they tried to sue for the company sold a debt to hunterwarfield in my name, no such debt us owed. I was made aware of this when I tried to buy a home in XXXX as my application was denied due to the company reporting that I owe some XXXX dollars. I disputed with credit agencies as well as called hunterwarfield. The person I spoke to told me I had to prove the debt was not legitimate, which is the opposite of the law, however I sent the court records to hunterwarfield as well as the credit agencies. Hunterwarfield replied to the credit agencies claiming that the debt they are reporting is a different debt. Warfield has refused to obey the law, I was forced to change my number after talking to them because I instantly began receiving robocalls calls as well as a man calling claiming that he worked for the government and was trying to serve me a warrant for arrest but that I could pay warfield to quash the warrant. This behavior is uncalled for and illegal, when you add the fact that I do not owe them money it becomes even more appalling. This company has tanked my credit score and is costing me thousands a year while preventing me from buying a home with their illegal behavior.

Sued you without properly notifying you of lawsuit
Complaint: Between XXXX and XX/XX/2016 I gave my apartment manager 30 day notice Verbally, she failed to mention it had to be written, she said ok I'll send you the paperwork for it. 2 weeks later she said she forgot, and then tried to charge me {$2000.00} extra after my father and primary applicant paid the last months rent. I had no damage to the apt . whatsoever and she took the whole {$2500.00} security deposit. My father, nor I was notified that she was going to sue. She knew we were just getting on XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX XXXX, and that's why we were moving. My relative was the primary applicant, and paid each months rent and any late fees. She knew I had no income and was pregnant. Why am I being punished. Not only can myself, my husband whose a vet, and our XXXX children loose our housing voucher, but we could be homeless soon since I cant get approved to move into a new home. We are getting Denials, and we have a few weeks left to find a place. The manager made false accusations regarding what the security deposit was used for. The last almost 3 years we have been doing great with our landlord who would vouch for us as being good tenants, and plans to give us partial security deposit back. If I could get help with this, it would be greatly appreciated. This has been unfair and unjust. Thank you.
