      This collection agency continues to harass me for a 2019 $214.38 tax bill that I did not owe. II did not own any furniture in 2019 so could not owe $214.38. I repeatedly told them I did not owe this money for office furniture (and provided proof). They ignored this information, doubled what they "claimed" I owed to $420.54 AND put it on my personal credit report.

      NCC use a county Fairfax County logo and information in their letters to intimidate your customers. They charged me high fees also. I have contacted  the county of Fairfax about it . They said "We have not authorized NCC to use their logo to write and send information to their tax payers" I contacted NCC many times and I have pay them almost $570.00 this included their fees.

      This number keeps calling everyday but won’t leave a voicemail. They say they are debt collectors but won’t tell me which debt they are trying to collect. I need something on paper telling me what the calls are about. Otherwise, I would not like to be contacted by them anymore.

      I have 3 cars and have to pay taxes in the city of Bristol CT. I some how missed 1 of my cars and did not pay. I am being told that I had been mailed delinquent bills that I do not have. When I received the notice from NCC I was told on a recorded line that if I paid and showed proof they would take care of the fee. So I did just that. Paid my 1 car tax bill outstanding and the interest to the City of Bristol. Then I called back the next day and was told they would send the info to the City of Bristol and if there was a balance I owed it. I stated that is not what I was told yesterday and they charged 57.83 which is outrageous all they did was send a letter through the regular mail. Now my bill is paid I did not pay them the money what is the cost for? I am also filing a complaint with the Attorney General of CT. Given the fact that an employee told me it would be waived and the fact that the next day the information changed is a problem in itself!!!!! I paid my taxes and interest on the city website. So the company has done NOTHING other than send a letter. What did they do that cost 57.83? Seems illegal to me.

      On Monday, 23 Aug, i received a notice in the mail from Nationwide Credit Collection stating i owe $505.87 to ***** ***** (never received anything from this company prior) from February 2021. I requested a copy of the proof they have showing it was me because i take metro to work and off at 3:30 and home by 4:30pm. Times listed does not match my time to and from work. NCC refused and kept asking me to verify the vehicle i have. I then called the number NCC gave me to ***** ***** and per that conversation, ***** ***** is only asking for the tolls due in the amount of $11.95. Per ***** *****, "NCC is adding the additional $100 not us", I have not received any invoices prior to this letter nor has anyone called. I did request an email with the stated documentations but has yet to receive anything from NCC and ***** *****.

      I am rejecting this response because: 1) I have reached out to Trans Urban today 9/14 at 1215pm  at phone number ************ and per *** *** **  (he will not give me his full last name), they do not have any information on this account that NCC has on me and asked that i reach out to NCC to see what was reported to them. NCC gave me ***** *****'s number and asked that i reach out to them. (it's a back and forth and nobody seem to know the real truth here only pointing fingers).
      2) I have an ****** and if this was the case that i was on this lane, my ****** would have pickup on this total. I have money on this ****** as well. 3) if the letter NCC sent me states each toll was 1.85  and .85 cents, why are they charging me and additional $100 per each which total $500 with no proof that it was my vehicle other than my tag in which anyone can report a tag. 
      3) I take metro to work to ************
      4) No proof  of photos to show this is my vehicle

      Good afternoon,

      Thank you for your response. Please know that we take your dispute very seriously and as such have the following information to provide:

      The information directly from our client that shows the photograph of the license plate that passed through the toll areas was provided to you via certified mail #**** **** **** **** ****. The information also provides the client's fee schedule should the tolls remain unpaid. Please note that ****** is a separate entity from ********** ******* *****. The lanes are owned and operated by ********** ******* ***** and ****** forwards them the fees based on trips that are picked up by an active transponder. The license plate for the vehicle was not associated with an ****** transponder according to ********** ******* ***** and as you advised our rep in the call with our office on 8/23/2021. The photo that appears on the invoice from ********** ******* ***** shows the license plate that was on the roadway at the time of travel. If you have reason to believe that your tags were used unlawfully, please send us a copy of your police report showing that they or the vehicle was unlawfully used. 

      Because of the nature of this account and that all comments are publicly posted, should you have any further questions please contact our office to speak with someone.

      I am very disappointed that management is very unprofessional. ********************* the director has been the most unprofessional director. I call over and over as she continue to say she calls back. I went to my phone carrier as we researched my bill and absolutely she Never called back to resolve my issues. I paid my account over 5 years ago and the company has no way of finding my payment. They have gave me the run around for over 2 months between supervisor *************** who never answers his phone or return calls also. After 5 years I was advised that they cant find my payment and asked for me to call all my banks to verify proof from a payment from over 5 years that no one can find my payment. I want to know where is my payment and why it was never posted to my account that was closed and removed from my credit report.

      My response:

      This information provided is conflicting from what the credit Union has said to me. This company is known for doing this the reviews and lawsuits speaks for itself. They are asking me to provide information from accounts that’s been closed because they are not able to locate payment. The director and upper management has been nothing but unprofessional not returning calls and providing contradicting information. This company NEVER validated this account and per discussions from the credit Union not taking accountability for their actions. I called and was advised I had no balance then told I did. The company has not even taken accountability that someone dropped the ball in their high turnover department. I’m very disappointed.
