Complaint #1796801 submitted on 02/22/2016 relating to National Credit Systems,Inc.. Complaint relates to Debt collection Other (i.e. phone, health club, etc.) - False statements or representation Attempted to collect wrong amount.
Complaint was submitted via Web and sent to the company on Monday 22nd February 2016.
On XXXX/XXXX/XXXX I lived in XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX n.c. XXXX in XXXX XXXX where a fire ensued. I was covered by insurance in full through XXXX XXXX XXXX company of Florida. My insurance paid XXXX in the form of XXXX checks ( I submitted the documentation ) on my behalf collected by XXXX XXXX XXXX the property owners at the time. XX/XX/XXXX I received a bill from XXXX for the 2 mos remaining on my lease. When I called I was told to disregard it as my lease was void as of the fire ... I did. In XXXX my account was given/sold to National Credit Systems for XXXX. The information I am providing will contradict information I have received from NCS. NCS claimed on XXXX/XXXX/XXXX that my insurance paid XXXX. However my insurance has provided me documentation that they paid XXXX XXXX for the damages created by the fire. Therefore they have been overpaid and should have returned my deposit of {$400.00}. I do not owe a balance at all. In the past I have had my insurance call XXXX directly as well as contacted XXXX and XXXX the property owners to no avail. NCS will not release this debt as they wish to be compensated for purchasing a bad debt. Furthermore it is my understanding that Steeplechase\and or NCS had 3 years to file a judgement against us for this debt they did not and the timeframe has since expired so this should have been removed on that basis if not the fact that I have provided substantial proof from the 3rd party ( my insurance company ) that they were paid before this debt went to collections. NCS has also resubmitted this debt to the credit bureaus XXXX ( in order to keep it from dropping from my credit ) indicating that they have made contact with us. THEY HAVE MADE NO CONTACT WHATSOEVER SINCE XX/XX/XXXX, when I contacted them. There is no debt owed and I would like this removed from my credit and the credit of XXXX XXXX immediately.
