BAD ASS COLLECTION

Please hep me with this one.

About 3 weeks ago I sent DV to EOS CCA over ATT bill collection. So it came verified. It says:

 

Our client, placed the above referenced account with out office on .......... bla bla bla. Statement show that balance of $300.  And then this surpriced me: Since account has been in our office  it has accrued balance. Balance is $450. 

 


My next step was: I sent an email that it is illegal to charge interest on a cellphone bill and that nowhere in ATT contract it states about accounts in default and collection. 

 

Guess what they did? They just updated it to original balance $300. 

 

I don't know what to do. Can I sue them? I have a letter from them or can I push so they delete the tradeline? 

 

Please help me with this one

Re: BAD ASS COLLECTION

I don't think you can sue.  You notified them of an error and they corrected it.  That's how it's supposed to work.  I'd try for a PFD.

Re: BAD ASS COLLECTION

Def try for pay for delete..I had a cell phone collection on my reports and after I paid off the collection agency I would just dispute with the credit bureaus...it got deleted for me this way.

Re: BAD ASS COLLECTION

I sent a scary email requesting they remove entry. I will see how it goes. If not I will try PFD.

Re: BAD ASS COLLECTION

One more time I want to thank everyone who is posting such a valuable information. Started month ago I already managed to delete 2 collections.
