It happended to me about 3 years ago, my sister took over it, and she moved out without the notice. When I knew that, I called in and asked them how much I have to paid for the penalty, and I gave them $1200 alredy. And after that I called in and maked sure that Im not own them anything, and they said yes....BUT 2 years later, they called me, and they said I owned them $6000.....I did asked them where my $1200, they said it just for the interest....and now it affects to my credit.....I really dnt knw what I have to do....

At first, you need to check whether or not the SOL period in your state has expired. If it has expired, then the CA has no right to take any legal action against you. You can contact with the CA and negotiate with them. You can arrange a better repayment plan with them to settle the debt. You can request the CA to update your account status as “Paid-as-settled” after repaying the debt. You can also contact with an experienced lawyer regarding this matter.
