I want to assert that I am not liable for the debt that is linked to BLACKWELL RECOVERY, as there has been no contractual agreement between us. It is essential to emphasize that I have not willingly entered into any financial obligations with them. Furthermore, in my effort to address this issue appropriately and transparently, I made a formal request to WORLDMARK THE **** for the provision of the original contract relevant to this particular debt. Regrettably, despite this request, they have not fulfilled my inquiry by providing the requested documentation. This lack of transparency and cooperation from WORLDMARK THE **** has added to the complexity of the situation, making it necessary for me to seek further assistance and clarification to resolve this matter effectively.------------Business response

I have a personal loan with Concord since October 1, 2021. Previously, this account was transferred from ***************. Recently, I was informed by a financial institution that Concord has my account listed as a mortgage. This changes my financial profile tremendously. I have contacted Concord several times, even spoken to a manager, requesting a copy of the contract so I can forward the correct information to the credit agencies. Upon speaking to them, I was told the contract will be sent to my email in 7-5 business days, then 1 -3 business days, finally 1 day. Each time I spoke to Concord I'm told a different story, never resolving the issue. I contacted FCC, the former agency to see if they may have had a copy of the contract. Unfortunately, they did not and informed me Concord should honor my request because all the information was forwarded to them. In order to correct my credit report, I will need a copy of the contract or Concord needs to contact the credit agency and correct the information that it's not a mortgage, but a personal loan.I appreciate your much needed and valued assistance. The BBB has helped me several times in the past. I'm grateful for your professionalism and support of customers as myself.Thank you again for your assistance!Best regards,*****************************Initial Complaint

We purchased a vacation package at Eldorado Royal in ****** on 10/2/22. This must be a 3rd party financial company. They will not answer any calls. I needed to change payment info and they keep sending late bills. This company is a scam. And we would like them investigated. We will be out almost $5,000 and probably a hit to our credit. I would like to terminate and be refunded.Business response
