Attempts to collect debt not owed
Debt collection: Other debt
Debt was paid
Complaint: I moved out of my old apartment in XXXX 2015 but in XXXX 2015 a co llection company named CBE Group said I owed {$86.00} for my utility bill. I contacted my old apartment manager who emailed me proof of my final payment for rent and utilities. In fact, I was mailed a refund from my initial security deposit and she said I owed nothing. I forwarded a copy of that statement to CBE and for the last two years have considered the matter closed. But in the last month or so, I 've been receiving call after call to ding me for the same debt. I also received a printed bill from them in the mail but returned it with a note demanding that they stop harassing me. I hope you can get CBE Group off my back once and for all.

Threatened or suggested your credit would be damaged
Complaint: I have been trying to apply for auto loans thinking I would be sorting through a bunch of offers deciding on the best one. For days I kept getting rejection notices. Finally, one of those gave a reason ... my credit score is over XXXX points lower than it should be. I immediately applied for a credit report. After analyzing the report I found an old XXXX account that has been trying to collect {$120.00} that was paid years ago. For the past 3 years they have been reporting to my credit report that I am delinquent on it without any notification to me. I no longer have any record of this payment since this is from 3 years ago. I have spent hours on the phone with XXXX and they keep giving me the run around.

Debt collection: Other debt
Debt was paid
Complaint: I received a notice in the mail regarding a debt for utilities for a property I lived in ove r two years ago. I called CBE to let them know that I had no outstanding debt with my utility company and that thi s is the first hearing about it since I moved. They told me they were the third company to receive the collection. Again, this is the first collection attempt I have received and I have not moved since. Not only that, but there is n't anything regarding this " collection '' on my credit report. Not now, not at any point in th e past two an d a half years. They told me to mail them a dispute letter in the mail, but it will probably be ineffective since they are the third company to receive my " debt ''.

Account information incorrect
Complaint: I received notification on my alerts through XXXX that a new credit collection account is appearing on my account at XXXX , XXXX and XXXX on XXXX XXXX , 2017 wi th XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX . I disputed the same with documentation. First, the last payment date indicates XXXX XXXX , 2017 wh ich is in the future. Second, I do not have gas service at my present location and have been at my present location of XXXX XXXX XXXX for over a year. I received not notification of such account and no request for verification of the same. Also I am in the process of purchasing a mortgage to close on XXXX XXXX , 2017 and ended up paying this amount which is still reflecting as unpaid, even though I do n't believe this account balance belongs to me but possible the new tenant at the location I left behind over a year ago, I paid as I cant proceed with the loan process with the outstanding amount listed in collection. So it is paid in full. I have proper documentation of both my current lease and the paid in full. I am requesting that this account be removed from my credit reports as I was never given proper notification for verification purposes, I was not living in this home during the delinquent period, and I have not paid a debt I do n't believe belongs to me.

Attempted to collect wrong amount
Complaint: Received a letter from XXXX XXXX . Upon speaking to a representative i regards to this matter, I was asked for my XXXX Pin Code. I refused to divulge that information, as I did not contact XXXX directly, and due to security concerns. I received a statement from XXXX XXXX , and the statement only state one-time charges. There is no detailed information, in regards to the one-time charges. Also, I am perplexed as to how I ca receive a letter from a collection agency, as well as a billing statement from XXXX sixty calendar days later. Also, upon initial contact with this collection agency, I informed them this account was declared as disputed. Upon further contact by the same collection agency, I declared all contact with me was to hereby cease and desist immediately. I have not been informed as to the one-time charges, in question.

Attempted to collect wrong amount
Complaint: XXXX XXXX took my phone when I switched from XXXX XXXX XXXX as part of promotion. I was owed XXXX dollars in credits for paying off my bill at XXXX XXXX XXXX . My old phones disappeared and XXXX refuses to give me the credits. I have spoke with several supervisors and all say they will take care of it. Now they say they ca n't help me and have sent the bill to collections at cbe group. I tried returning the phones immediately because of unhappy about the credits. They told me to hold on the credits will be applied. When they did n't and I called back they told me I was out of the time frame to return the phones. So I was stuck. The store ran my credit 3 times and nobody will resolve it. Now I owe XXXX dollars for the phones I was given by XXXX because they would n't return the phones
