Good luck... and you are not the only one knocking your heads against the wall!

They reported me to Equifax for a telephone number I never had at an address I never had a phone. I call every day and sit on hold for hours. What a scam!

You should know that it is illegal for a creditor or collection agency to report negative information about you to any of the three credit bureaus without first validating a debt. Dispute the debt with Equifax, and there must be proof of the debt, and the burden is on the original creditor, and if the evidence can not be produced, then by law, the negative remark must be removed.

Palisades Collection LLC
200 South Executive Drive - 3rd Floor
Brookfield Wisconsin 53005
U.S.A.

Is it possible that I can make a payment to this adress? If yes can you email me back as soon as possible to email address removed as per forum rules - Mike

I tried to use my debit card today and it came back "unapproved". I knew I had money in the bank. When I called to check my balance I was told I was overdrawn $5,219.76. When I asked why, I was told that a garnishment from Palisades Collection Agency had been put through. I never received any notice from Palisades. I don't know who Palisades is. I told the bank that if they paid it they would lose $5000 because I don't have that kind of money. In the meantime my mortgage, utilities and car payments will not get paid, since that money was in my checking account and is now gone!

There has been a yet another recent lawsuit filed against Palisades, and apparently Palisades and allied interstate are one and the same as well:

It's pitiful, scandalous, and ridiculous for this organization to sabotage my negative credit resolution. I can't get this problem resolved because I can't contact this crazy company.

Then make direct contact with the credit bureaus, and notify them that the debt is not valid, and the original creditor is not available to you.

i need information of how long could a chargeoff be on your credit report or harass by mail this account is 8 years old please help.

margie,a chargeoff is allowed on your credit report 7 years from chargeoff date or 7.5 years from date of first delinquency if this occured before chargeoff. If you made any payments after that date,the reporting sol date can be reset. They may continue to collect as long as debt is unpaid. Once debt is out of statute for reporing and civil action,they will call or write.If you do not wish them to contact you and are sure that the debt is out of statute,you can send them a full cease & desist letter certified mail return receipt.I am including a link to one here on the forum.

This company recently sent me a sheriff's office civil division form to fill out with our assets.
We have not so much as received a letter from the people and now they have entered a judgement against us to bring this paper to the sheriff's office.
Has anyone ever heard of this? I have not.
When my husband spoke to someone on the phone who represented them and asked them what they represented they would not tell him only demanded money. Also they contacted our neighbors and left a number that was not local. We are in South Carolina.

I am not sure how legit that is. You may want to contact the Sherriffs office yourself, to verify this form. If you find out that it is not real, take the appropriate measures to display this companies impersonating a law enforcement organization and mail fraud. Huge penalties. Let us know.

Sounds funny to me. Are you sure there's a judgment against you? Call the court clerk and ask. If it were for real, it seems to me you should have recieved it from the Sheriff's Dept, not the company. Anthony is right, if you find something funny is going on, sue them, as well as report them to the appropriate authorities, (such as the post office for mail fraud).

These guys have been calling me for about a month with an automated voice message saying "This is not a sales call please call ..." So I wrote it off because I was never at a place where a pen was handy. So I was finally able to call the number today and asked who I supposedly owed money to. I couldn't understand the lady because she was Indian but she said ".... (something) Greg" then we were cut off. For the rest of the morning I prowled the internet to find a phone number. I used 201-567-5648 to call and get a customer support line (by the way if you call make sure you enter in a number of importance because if you try customer support you will get a voice mail. Same with disputes you'll sit on the phone for an hour waiting for someone to answer instead I hit the button for paying a balance not only did I get someone in America but I didn't have to wait.) The customer support line number is 1-800-873-5648 I tried the customer support option no dice there so I called back and put that I was trying to pay. The guy asked for my social and I refused to give it to him. I said that I would give him the phone number they had been calling. I gave it to him and he said that nothing came up that there was no balance. He then asked for my name first and last and started going through street addresses...mine wasn't in there. Strange since when I called earlier and gave them my phone number something showed up but now it isn't there. I've never gotten a credit report because I've never owned a credit card, and I pay my bills. So if this company shows up on my credit report whenever I decide to get one there will be a problem. If anyone has experienced something similar to my situation and still had problems let me know.

Thank You,
Christina

I am in the same boat. I am about to buy a house and see the AT&T Wireless charge on my credit rept. I remember paying this 2 years ago and they promised if I paid right then on the phone it would not be on my credit report. I checked today and lo and behold..there it was. I am going to attempt to contact them but I am not sure if this will do any good since I have already paid the account. Any suggestions?

Got bounced around to three different phone numbers before i could talk to someone at Palisades....here is their new contact number

1-800-414-8319
Very Happy
