We are in receipt of your correspondence regarding the complaint filed with your office by ***********************.
Our records indicate that this account charged off due to non-payment and was placed with Carson Smithfield, LLC, a third party collection agency for servicing. The customer subsequently submitted a payment which paid the balance in full.
The customer contacted us to request written confirmation that the account had been paid in full and to provide their email address. The representative added the email address to the account; however, they did not allow ample time for this update to be processed before requesting the paid in full letter. As a result, the letter was issued via mail instead of email, as requested. We sincerely apologize for the inconvenience that this caused the customer.
We have issued the paid in full letter to the customers email address, and a separate response was also provided to the customer with a copy of the mailed letter.
We hope we have been of assistance and appreciate the opportunity to respond.
