      I honestly don’t get why GLA COLLECT is reporting this debt under my name because I don’t owe them anything. I never signed anything with them, and when I asked for a copy of the original application, they didn’t even bother to provide it. It’s frustrating because this is hurting my credit for no reason, and it’s just not fair. How can they just put something on my report without any proof?

      I spoke with a representative on December 20, 2024 regarding the $590 balance from *********. I told them of my financial situation and tried to set up a settlement or payment plan. They refused any kind of settlement stating this company is only a "pay in full company." They also would not send me anything regarding a payment arrangement in writing, by mail or by email. When I told the representative that this was troubling she gave me the GLA website to make a payment.
