Complaint #1596454 submitted on 10/07/2015 relating to ECMC Group, Inc.. Complaint relates to Debt collection Other (i.e. phone, health club, etc.) - Cont'd attempts collect debt not owed Debt was paid.

Complaint was submitted via Web and sent to the company on Wednesday 7th October 2015.

Narrative (may be redacted).

The circumstance began when the Indiana Department of Revenue started reaching out to me to collect a debt from a previous employer of mine. The Indiana Department of Revenue contracted with a company called " Premiere Credit XXXX '' to use tactics to collect my old employers debt while I was working with the Indiana Department of Revenue to have me removed from this account. The Indiana department of revenue removed me as a liable party in XXXX 2015 and Premiere Credit continued to collect the debts after this period until they closed the account in XXXX 2015. During this period of time Premiere Credit notified me that they were trying to collect a personal tax debt that I did owe. Premiere sent a garnishment to my employers payroll company. Premiere did not communicate to me that there was this additional debt other than the debt that I had been released from. As soon as I verified this debt to be true it was paid within 2 days of that verification. Premiere had told me that they sent a release to my employer immediately after I paid the balance. Premiere did not communicate the release of the garnishment to my employer for a week after they had told me that they had sent it to my employer. I had to call more than 4 times to premiere and my employer each to verify that the garnishment release had been received. The representatives from premiere were not helpful and disrespectful when I asked for the release to be sent and they would not provide me a fax confirmation that they had sent the release.
