Complaint #1553883 submitted on 09/05/2015 relating to Fidelity Capital Holdings, 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 Saturday 5th September 2015.
I signed a lease with XXXX XXXX Apartments XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX and following that we were harassed by neighbors and maintenance crews due to my XXXX orientation. I was forced to break the lease and leave the apartment complex due to my fear of continued residency at this location. I moved from the complex on XXXX XXXX, XXXX and that was approximatley 2 months prior to the end term of lease. In doing so, I left the complex and submitted a note explaining this detail along with keys to management office. In turn, I was presented with a lawsuit from XXXX XXXX XXXX in XXXX, Florida in the amount of {$2700.00}. Moving forward, I sent correspondence to this attorney, again, detailing my reasoning for quick move. The attorney replied and stating that this was not sufficent evidence to break lease and actually they never INVESTIGATED THE INCIDENT! Again, moving forward, the creditor filed a claim with credit bureau in the amount of {$2700.00}. It showed up on my credit report as a debt to original creditor in the amount of {$2700.00}. Later the original creditor employed FIDELITY XXXX in XXXX, California XXXX XXXX. XXXX XXXX XXXX, California XXXX / Telephone ( XXXX ) XXXX / Fax ( XXXX ) XXXX / XXXX XXXX XXXX - Legal Department EXT XXXX.
My account was XXXX XXXX APARTMENTS / Account # XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX - The collection agency requested {$3500.00} to settle the debt of {$2700.00}. These funds had to be in their office same day XXXX/XXXX/XXXX to fullfill the case. On XXXX/XXXX/XXXX They demanded {$4200.00} to settle the exact same date PLUS interest of XXXX cents per day. The original creditor DID NOT RETAIN A JUDGMENT against me for the {$2700.00}, therefore interest would not be due without them obtaining a judgement. My lease did not provide for any interest accruing on the past due debt. They did not credit me with my security deposit in the amount of {$1200.00} and did not advise me if the unit was rented which would have resulted in additional credit to me. I have applied for A XXXX HOME LOAN. This fraud on behalf of the collection agency has prevented me from being able to purchase my home. Also, this debt was filed as A DISPUTE and CLEARLY shows on my credit report as being a legal disputed and recognized by the FCRA reporting act. In addition, the creditor has NEVER VERIFIED the debt in writing, although requested by me on numerous occasions.
I need HELP FROM YOUR AGENCY ASAP AND I THANK YOU IN ADVANCE FOR YOUR TIME, REVIEW AND ASSISTANCE ON THIS MATTER.
