Find out exactly how much you owe, cause the interest froze on the day it went to Collections, then, was it a mailman or truck or Joe Shmoe who put it in your mailbox (without your signed name that you actually received anything?) Ask someone at legal aid if it is valid,cause it sounds like a crock of %$&# to me.

You say you were served a summons but are you absolutely sure this is a REAL summons? I would call your county court house, there has to be a case number on that summons, authenticate it before you do anything. Another question, did you ever receive a dunning letter? If you've moved to a different address in the past two years a dunning letter may have been sent to an old address. I would definitely check with the court house first. :wink:

That is not entirely correct. Interest can continue to accrue if the orignal cardholder agreement stated so. Late fees and over the limit fees should cease after charge off.
What state do you live in? Some states allow "nail & mail" so depending on the state you are in that may be legal. Check here:
