Complaint #1634324 submitted on 10/31/2015 relating to Pressler & Pressler, LLP. Complaint relates to Debt collection Credit card - Cont'd attempts collect debt not owed Debt is not mine.
Complaint was submitted via Web and sent to the company on Saturday 31st October 2015.
I got a letter from Pressler and Pressler. They claim I owe a debt of XXXX. I requested validation immediately. This debt is not mine and I know they have no proof but the letter and my rights say i must request validation. I sent the request certified mail to XXXX XXXX. recipient did not print name on card. I got some strange looking copies of documents. They claimed to be court transcripts from XX/XX/XXXX. I had never seen these before. There was no court appearance date. I was never served a subpoena or sent anything through registered or certified mail. Even if this debt was mine, which it is not, this would be a lack of due service. you cant just SAY someone owes you a bunch of money and have no proof. I was also given a credit card number I never had. I sent a restricted mailing to XXXX XXXX. The signature was again illegible on the return card. I advised him the documents he sent were not proof of any debt owed to them by myself. I then got another letter telling me of alleged debt to which I am advised to send another validation letter within 30 days or debt will be considered valid. How many times will I have to do this? I believe they are trying to get a default judgement but the debt is not mine. If the debt was mine, which it is not, I feel i should have heard about it long ago since on the paper i was sent it says the last payment was XX/XX/XXXX. Why am I suddenly getting letters from this place now? I realize they are a junk debt buyer but I never had this credit card they say I did. If they could prove otherwise I would not be complaining against them obviously. I feel I will be inundated with mailings from them until i get sick of it and give up. I do not wish to give up because I DO NOT owe these people any money but they are legally allowed to continue to use my name as leverage to try to obtain money that is not theirs.
