Two collectors-One bill
Date: Thu, 10/15/2009 - 10:05
I mailed out certified DV letters a couple of weeks ago and yesterday I receive two letters back. However, interestingly enough, they were two different collectors, for the same bill, and for different amounts. What do I do?
Let me add though; these two collectors were not included in my letters that I previously mailed out. My guess is that at some point the account was sold so my letter may have been sent to the new collection agency. Do I need to send these two collectors a DV, as well? Are they going to fight this out or will I be in the middle of this? I'm afraid if I pay one, well, the other one will say I owe them.
Thank you in advance!
