| Just got a credit update and found a collection status on my report from capital assistance group? Left msgs. several times, then recvd unknown caller on caller ID.? When someone checked she couldn't find my name in system? Told ME to call BMG co. and get accnt. info? How incredible is that ? And to call her back? What kind of operation is this? Who are they ? If they don't have on file, how did they report to collection agency ? Why wasn't I contacted first? |

| I'm trying to buy a home and all of a sudden on my credit report comes up BMG I call them they give me CAG, I call voicemail too. I'm getting ready to close on my house and they're saying I owe money. I don't even know who they are, How does that get on your credit report? I only have 2 weeks before I close, How can I fix this when like everybody else I can't get a hold of anyone. |

I don't like the fact that many people never received any notice in the mail about this.
What about those people that don't know they can get a free credit report every year? What about those that don't check their credit reports? It is very distasteful and crummy that some of these debt collectors don't mail anything before ruining people's credit reports. |

| This is happening to me too. There are too many of us saying the same thing. It sounds like there is a definate scam going on and the amounts are low enough that people are willing to pay it to get it off of their credit report. That's exactly what they are hoping for. DON'T DO IT!!!! FIGHT BACK!!!Everybody PLEASE take the time to file a complaint with the Federal Trade Commission and The BBB. If they start getting a lot of complaints they will look into it. Each person trying to dispute it individually is up against the odds. However, if we all band together and fight back we will get somewhere. I am filing 2 complaints. One for BMG Music and one for National Credit Solutions who the debt is listed under. If yours is listed under CAG, then complain on them too. ftc.gov and bbb.org |

| 1st of all i must intervene...as far as the BMG or COLUMBIA house debts..most ppl actually DO sign up for these things..it may be accidental but they do..blame the iternet for that..because most ppl are out to get the free offer after clicking on what they thought was a completion of a FREE offer, not realizing in the fine print it states the CONTRACT charges that arises...so ppl need to be more carefull or stop looking for fre merchadise...then as far as medical..no one is at fault but the patient, the hospital sends a ton of notices before a bill is sent to collections, the agency is only collecting what the hospital states they owe..as far as the suing goes..it is unfair to say it is fault of the agency but more fault of the hospital or of the insurance..most ppl do not realize, a hospital is billing insurance as a COURTESY it is YOUR responsibility to ensure the insurance pays...and further more..ur insurance is responsible for you and you are responsible for the bill...and one last note..a true debt collector attitude should not be pleasent, pleasent customer svc went out the window when a DEBTOR decides to default on their own commitment and responsibility,,so attempting to pursue legal actions for monetary gain shows most peoples irresponsibility to handle their finances and they are only looking to see what they can get out of company for being "MEAN"...i am only speaking bare truth because ppl need to stop blaming these collection agencies for their own mistakes, |

| Funny thing is this is only on experian's credit report. I have never purchased anything through BMG. They are saying I owe them 99 dollars, but in reality I don't. |

| I have had the same problem with NCS and capital assistance group. A bill from 2004 popped up on my credit of 196 dollars and they refuse to believe that i do not owe this money. I am still disputing this and filing complaints. I do not know what to do next. |
