| I recieved a letter today from Niagra Credit Solutions, Inc.. Re: WORLDWIDE ASSET PURCHASING ll and claiming that Bank of America is the original creditor. They say I owe $630.50. I have never dealt with any of these companies. And for B of A, the last time i dealt with them was in 2002. I had payed off my total credit card balance. Is this a double dipp of some kind? |

| You should ask them to validate it in writing that you actually owe that amount. |

Is this new company reporting on your credit report or are they just hounding you with letters and phone calls? If the debt was previously paid, then I think you may have some recourse against the company dunning you for this alleged debt

| I received a letter in the mail from these people on Dec 2, 2007, from their Edina, MN office and received a phone call from them on Dec 3, 2007 at about 11:30 am. I have numerous messages on my answering service from these people and everytime I ask them what the debt is for, they put me on hold and never return back to the phone. Is there anyway to stop this and find out what this is about. This is getting pretty scary reading all of your comments on this. I'm glad I took the time to look this company up. If anybody can help me put a stop to this I would greatly appreciate it. |

| I spoke with the Attorney General's Office in my state and they suggested that i fill out a complaint from against these people and send in any information that they have sent to me. I would suggest that those of you who are looking for some answers to contact the Attorney General's Office in your state to get help with this issue and please share the news with everyone so that others will not be caught up by these people. |

I would file two complaints with the attorney generals office
1. on this company, make them answer to what their alledged debt is.
2. one on the original creditor, let them explain why the heck a collection agency is paying off a bill that has been paid off for quite some time.
I have filed complaints with the Pennsylvania attorney generals office and have gotten positive results.
goodluck, hope this all works out positively for you, keep us update.

They responded very quickly and followed up with a phone call and a letter telling me the result. These companies seem to respond to their office.
The only one that they could not help me with is the one that has legal action pending, since this was happening they could not get involved, I understand that but thought I would try anyway, don't hurt to try.

| I received a call from these people not even a week ago.. They say I owe over 900 dollars to Bank of America when I have proof that this debt has been paid in full.. The "client reference number" (i.e. old credit card number) isn't even accurate. I am sending them a letter from another collection company stating that this was in fact paid in full.. IS there something else I can do to protect myself? The collection agency I paid said this letter is all I need to get them off my back.. |

That should do it, I would state in the letter that any further communication will be considered harassment and that you will retain an attorney to further communicate with them on this debt if they attempt to contact you again. If the debt is paid, it is paid, I would not send them another dime. goodluck hope this works out for you soon, they can be so dang annoying, especially if you don't owe the debt,and they feel you do. they can be jerks, stand your ground.

Yes Jennifer,
Send them a copy of that letter via certified mail with return receipt requested. Along with the same send a cease and desist letter asking them to stop further communication because the debt has already been paid.

OK- NOW after sending in the release letter- they said it does not work- because it has the "new account" number on it- and not the one assigned before conversion.. B of A merged with another company- and assigned everyone new account numbers. Even though these accounts are the SAME- this company is after me for over 900 dollars- 900 more than I rightfully owe them. I paid Phillips and Cohen under the newly assigned account number- and have the release. This new agency will not accept this- and worst of all B of A acknowledges that these are the same account- but will do nothing to help.. Any more ideas? I am getting worried I will have to pay out another 900- after paying almost 2K..
Thanks.. |
