    I've requested an itemized bill of the charges as well as receipts for the 31 payments of 100.00 that I've already made. I was told they mailed me things a few times yet. I have never received anything from this debt collector my entire life.

    The representative ***** whom I spoke with was very rude and unprofessional from the start of the call. The company has been calling my place of employment harrasing me multiple times and also sending letters to “personnel” . Finally getting tired of the calls to my employer I call to try to make some type of resolution and am told that it was “too late” and that my case had already reached an attorney. After asking her several times why she had not called my personal phone concerning a personal business matter I asked her to verify my contact phone number and to my surprise she had an incorrect phone number listed for me. I explained that she was unable to reach me because the phone number listed for me was incorrect . After hanging up on me mid call several times I continued to call back to try to reach some sort of resolution. Again she was rude and nasty telling me we had nothing more to talk about. I advised her that since she now had my correct phone number she no longer needed to call me at my place of employment- she refused to remove the number. I’ve worked collections before and there is absolutely no reason for any collector to be this rude.
