I am not liable for this debt with DOMINION ENERGY VIRGINIA . I do not have a contract with EXPRESS RECOVERY SERVICES. When I requested the original signed contract with this company, they did not deliver it.Business response

We received this same complaint today from the credit bureau e-***** dispute system. This is the first we have heard, we have not received any request for validation of the debt. We are currently holding the collections process until we can contact our client for validation of the debt. The account has been marked as disputed as required by law. This debt is for service at ***********************************************************. We are contacting the original creditor for debt verification. Once we have that, we will send a copy to the consumer.Customer response

I am rejecting this response because: I do not have a contract with your company and therefore, I am not liable for any debt with your company. I demand that you remove this from my credit report ASAP. Non-compliance will result in a complaint with the **** and a fine of $1000 in pursuant to 15 USC 1681n.

That is irrelevant as on four different occasions I have requested for the original signed contract with the company I am complaining about. It is clear they are again buying themselves time. I have no contract with this company, I am not liable for the debt with this company and I have no knowledge of any service at the current address they specified in their response. Remove this item from my credit report and if I should receive another response such as the last asking me for documentation I will submit a complaint to the **** on all three companies involved.Business response

As stated, we can only respond to requests made to us. Utility services typically do not have a signed agreement as they are generally done over the phone. We have received this request and are investigating it. That's all we can do in this situation. It has been marked as disputed.Initial Complaint

I have been receiving calls daily from the number ************. On 05/08/2024 at 12:45 pm I attempted to call back to inquire what company this was calling me. the number does not identify its name when it answered, puts you on hold for the next avail rep. I asked the company name - the male voice identified the company as EXPRESS RECOVERY and stated the automatic call dialed me and he needed my information in order to speak with me. I asked what company they represent (so I could determine if this is a legit call). He refused to provide that information and informed me that unless I provide my information he cannot speak with me. I reiterated his number called me, I need to know why/what company they are calling for. He hung up. (1) when calling, an automated message plays that does not identify the name of the company; (2) I was denied information that would tell me if this is a legit call. I was not asking for anyone's personal information but rather the name of the company they represented in calling me; (3) I called back a second time and repeatedly heard the automated message to press 1 or press 2. Then I was on hold and received an automated message stating "to request a call back at ************ press.." I looked for an email to complain to the company directly, I attempted to match the number that called me to the name given by the male who answered my call, and I attempted to identify the second number in the automated message - this number is identified as ERC aka Enhanced Recovery Company which I have been unable to connect to the name Express Recovery. the manner in which Express Recovery answered me is unacceptable. IF they had told me the name of the company the acct belongs, I would have informed them of a bankruptcy and asked for a number/email to fax the letter verifying. But they would not tell me anything to verify. A business is obligated to provide info when asked. I consider the repetitive calls without providing this information as deceptive harassment.Business response

This complaint is filed with the wrong company. We are not associated with either phone number listed in the dispute. **************'s automated message states their hours of operation, which are different than ours, in Eastern Time. We are located in **** (Mountain Daylight time zone) and not in any other states. We are not associated with Enhanced Recovery Services.Initial Complaint

Express recovery systems, now operating under Clear Management Solutions, contacted me today 08/01/2023 regarding a supposed debt. The name on the debt being my maiden name that I have not had in almost a decade, at an address I havent been at in almost a decade, and belonging to an urgent care I havent been to in almost a decade. I was explaining this to the person who contacted me and she was immediately combative, rude, unprofessional, and assuming. When I told her I wanted proof of the debt she disconnected the call. I believe this debt is past statute of limitations given the information I provided above. I would like this debt removed and I would like the person who contacted me to receive reprimands for her behavior.Business response

She states in her complaint that this account was under her maiden name, but does not list the maiden name. There is also no account number provided or what phone number we contacted her at. We would need some additional information in order to research this further.Customer response

You reported a charge off to my account but you were either included in my chapter 7 **************** bankruptcy, or settled in full.Business response
05/25/2023
Please provide us with additional information regarding this account. We show no outstanding accounts under this customer name. We do not report anything as a charge-off, it would be an active collection account or paid collection account. We need additional information to determine what account **************** is referring to. An original creditor, or account number, even an amount reported could be helpful.
