Narrative (may be redacted).

I switched from XXXX XXXX XXXX to the parent company XXXX. The agent handled the transaction and because I was n't given a cancellation form to sign I somehow then owed and addition {$55.00}. I contacted the ins. agent in response the the threat of collection by XXXX XXXX and they worked to resolve the matter and I was told that it was taken care of by XXXX agents and I signed the needed doc. I have all the documentation to prove this email interaction. I was contacted tonight at about XXXX XX/XX/XXXX by Lamont, Hanley and Associates Collection agency ( 3 weeks after resolving the matter with XXXX XXXX ) and was told I owe the debt. I explained and asked them not to report to the credit bureau until I attempt to resolve this and they told me that is n't their problem, did n't give me an account reference number and hung up abruptly. I tried to call back twice and was unable to pass through the automated system with the reference number. I went to their website and was unable again. I have sent both XXXX XXXX and Lamont Hanley emails through their sites notifying them of the situation and not to report. I was contacted in the evening by Lamont Hanley, it is also a holiday evening, I denied being given the info I needed about the debt, they were unreasonable in resolution and rude, I was hung up on.
