Anyone deal with IC Systems?

I haven't dealt with them personally. I have seen many threads related to IC Systems in our forum but haven't found any specific settlement deal with them. Here are some of the forum discussions on I.C.Systems: -

I just got a collection letter from I.C. Systems for my Orchard card

i have credit one and ic systems calling me everyday

Limit of Harrassment for Collectors?

I don't know how to deal with this 2100. debt from a scam with chase bank -- they say it's my debt even though scam, even though it took chase 10 days to clear check, then i used it and wired to a someone i was working for and checks bounced, so i'm responsible and i was foolish

can't deal with them myself need help -- out of work but praying something may start in about a month. i up for two projects.

thanks

what was the scam? If you used funds on a good check that just happened to take a long time to clear, that is not a scam. Now if the check was a counterfeit check, I believe the FBI gets involved with those, and the bank will normally work with you on your fees.

Does anyone have a fax number for I.C. Systems?

I refuse to talk to any of these creditors and I need to send a Cease and Desist letter and let them know that I only work directly with the creditor.

Thanks!

Well, I tried to settle with Target and HSBC-Best Buy directly, but they have IC Systems handling it. I was looking for fax numbers and contact info. It seems that they call people all the time, so I found this information as contact info for them.

I'm going to fax them a settlement offer and see what happens from there. I'm going to offer less to them than I was willing to offer to the creditor. Can't hurt. Worse they can say is no and we go from there.

I won't be scared of these companies any more.

I've been with Verizon for over 10 years, be CAREFUL when you switch plans or consolidate because there will usually be a balance either a credit or due amount that WILL NOT be billed to your NEW account and will sit idle for up to 3 years when finally IC Collections comes after you. The unknown balance I had of $16 was due EVEN THOUGH I'M STILL A GOOD WITHSTANDING CUSTOMER WITH VERIZON AND they sent my balance due to collections instead of CONTACTING ME at my same VERIZON phone number and new address I have with them. VERIZON SUCKS! I called verizon to ask why they sent a balance to collections even though I'm still a loyal customer of theirs, they said oops sorry, it happens! They had no record of the balance due until I gave them my social security number and did a search...then they said, oh yeah, we sent it to collections so we can't talk about it now. I'm like, HELLO, If you were trying to get a hold of me to pay a debt I owe you, why didn't you CALL MY VERIZON FREAKINPHONE or BILL ME at my current VERIZON ADDRESS on file!

Verizon Sucks, Verizon did the same thing to me. I never received any statement or notice of balance owned, and then out of the blue I get hit with UNKNOWN BALANCE from a collection agency stating I owe the same $16. Having just returned to the country, I am past the 30 day dispute deadline. I went ahead and paid the collection agency just to buy myself time. Is there anything I can do to protect my credit score?
