      I am rejecting this response because: you have LIED and said I have asked to not be called. I haven't SPOKEN with anyone from your company as they do not talk when I answer nor leave a message. So how could I have requested to not be called??  When I try to call back based on telephone # on my caller ID because no one ever leaves a message, I get an automated system that says all operators are busy please hold and no one ever picks up. SO again, WHAT ARE YOU CALLING ABOUT???????  

      Sincerely,

      ***** *******

      Thank you again for the opportunity to respond to this complaint. 

      We are open Monday-Friday 8am-7pm Central time if Mrs. ******* would like to call in and discuss the personal business we have for her in our office. We have to verify who we are speaking with before we can discuss the nature of why we are calling and cannot leave those details on an answering machine. 

      Mrs. ******* sent an email to our company stating if we could not leave a message when we were calling, detailing why we were calling, then we need to stop calling, therefore; we have noted to no longer the number we have on file. Once we receive validation of this debt from our client, we will place this in the mail to the address we have on file for Mrs. ******** Once Mrs. ******* receives the validation she can contact our office if she wishes to discuss further.

      Thank you,

      Complaint: 22483368

      I am rejecting this response because: I did not send an email to you saying that" I filed a complaint to the BBB saying you call but don't speak and don't leave a message if I happen to not answer. And that if you cant speak or leave a message then you don't need to call". If you want to read that into me saying don't call that is of course your right. This is all on record with the BBB so it really doesn't matter. If you want to call and actually speak when I answer, then you can certainly call me or if you want to have a live person answer when I call the number back from my missed call log then I will be happy to discuss.  This issue at hand is still YOU DO NOT SPEAK WHEN I ANSWER NOR HAVE A LIVE PERSON TO ANSWER CALLS.

      I am not liable for this debt with **************************. I do not have a contract with MSCB **** they did not provide me with the original contract as requested.

      Business Response

      Date: 08/08/2024

      Dear Better Business Bureau,

      Thank you for forwarding ******************************** dispute to us for a response.

      Our company, MSCB, INC. (MSCB), is a licensed collection agency that collects debts owed to creditors in ******** and other jurisdictions. We comply with all laws, rules, and regulations that pertain to debt collection. The subject debt was referred to us by ************************** (WRMC) on 11/23/2022. In accordance with our collection agency agreement with WRMC, We attempted to contact ************** by mail and by phone to collect the debt owed to WRMC. We also reported the debt to ************** credit report in accordance with our agreement with WRMC.

      On 12/9/2022, We mailed a validation notice to ************** advising her of the right to dispute the debt and request information regarding the debt. We received no response from **************. We mailed additional letters to ************** but received no response. In addition to the letters, We made 19 (nineteen) attempts to reach ************** by phone over a 10 (ten) month period from 3/14/2023 to 1/9/2024. ************** did not answer or return any of our calls.

      After we exhausted our efforts to collect the debt, we referred the matter to legal counsel for collection through the legal process.
      On 4/20/2023, legal counsel mailed a validation notice to ************* advising her of her right to dispute the debt and request information regarding the debt. Legal counsel received no response to the notice from ************* during the validation period.

      On 10/5/2023, legal counsel filed a lawsuit in the District Court of *******************, ******************** Case No. BACV-23-200. ************** was served with the Summons and Complaint on 10/18/2023. On 2/21/2024, a judgment was entered against ************** for the subject debt, along with attorney fees, interest and court costs. Since the judgment has been entered as a matter of the courts record, information regarding the judgment could be reported to ************** credit report by a third party over whom we have no control.
      We have investigated this debt by reviewing the itemized statement and financial agreement from WRMC and determined that it is a valid debt. Furthermore, the civil judgment entered against ************** was based on a sworn affidavit of account from an authorized employee of WRMC. We will mail ************** a copy of the itemized statement and financial agreement with WRMC. In addition, we will mail ************** a copy of the judgment.

      On 11/28/23, we reported the underlying debt to ************** credit report. On 8/1/2024, we submitted the item to be removed from the credit report.
      We acted properly and in good faith in attempting to collect the subject debt, which we have determined is a valid and just debt.Nevertheless, we have removed the disputed item from ************** credit report.

    BBB Business Profiles may not be reproduced for sales or promotional purposes.

    BBB Business Profiles are provided solely to assist you in exercising your own best judgment. BBB asks third parties who publish complaints, reviews and/or responses on this website to affirm that the information provided is accurate. However, BBB does not verify the accuracy of information provided by third parties, and does not guarantee the accuracy of any information in Business Profiles.

    When considering complaint information, please take into account the company's size and volume of transactions, and understand that the nature of complaints and a firm's responses to them are often more important than the number of complaints.

    BBB Business Profiles generally cover a three-year reporting period. BBB Business Profiles are subject to change at any time. If you choose to do business with this business, please let the business know that you contacted BBB for a BBB Business Profile.

    As a matter of policy, BBB does not endorse any product, service or business. Businesses are under no obligation to seek BBB accreditation, and some businesses are not accredited because they have not sought BBB accreditation. BBB charges a fee for BBB Accreditation. This fee supports BBB's efforts to fulfill its mission of advancing marketplace trust.
