Okay, my husband has a couple old medical bills that total about $4200 that are listed with a local collection agency. They are licensed and all that jazz. I've never really had any trust issues with them until this past week. First, we tried to settle with them but that fell through the cracks. We unlisted this debt with our debt settlement company for this purpose. So, I sent them a couple of $50 payments over the last couple of months, which they cashed. I called them on Monday and made different payment arrangments with them, even agreed to have them deduct it from my checking account every month. They wanted it secured so it wouldn't be turned over to the lawyer for further suit. This seemed to be fine when I got off the phone with her. They never deducted the amount out of my checking account. We are not trying to dispute the debt but should I send a validation request anyway, or is it too late? We received another letter from them yesterday to call and make payment arrangments. This is really frustrating to me. :x


I would keep calling them and request the arrangement in writing.

Sounds similiar to an agency I deal with. Kept on getting funky things in the mail but it finally got straightened out. Just keep calling until they get it right.

Michele-Like Glynnie said, I would keep calling until you get some satisfaction. If you can,I would go there in person,ask them why they didn't deduct,and explain that you have already made arrangements,while you are there,get them to put it in wrinting.The squeaky wheel gets the grease-perster THEM until they get it right..Good luck...Karen

Well, I called them today to verify the payment arrangments and they are in place. They didn't set to start deducting from my account until next month for some oddball reason. I did receive a letter in the mail today from them regarding the payment plan that we had set up. I thought they were going to deduct this month as well. At least it's one less thing to worry about right now. I also have to resend them the copy of hubby's last court papers showing where his ex-wife is responsible for part of this debt. The original creditor seemed to have lost them. First, I got we don't deal with that but I said well I'm sure my attorney would proceed with this for me since I've been getting screwed around by you for the last couple of months when I've been trying to do the right thing. Imagine how things change so quickly? LOL!!! :)
