Hello all,
My largest obstacle at this point is figuring out how to handle a cell phone (Sprint) collection. Just a little run down of my history. I signed a contract for 2 phones back in June 2005, I decided to terminate my service in July of 2007 as I had fulfilled both my contracts. Lo and behold come August I received a past due bill stating I needed to pay fees in the amount of $250 for "breaking" one of my contracts. I called and fought and fought that I had my fulfilled contract but they wouldn't budge. Come Sept. 2007 I received a collection notice from GC Services Limited Partner ship with a balance of $314.71 due. I ignored it at the time then one month later I received another from the same CA in the amount of $319.19. I ignored that also, all of sudden last Oct. 2008 I received a letter from a CA, Pentagroup Financial stating I have a balance of $541.01 for this same collection. I'm very confused as to how my balance got larger...Does anyone have any ideas or suggestions as far as the steps I need to take to get this removed. I must remove this baddie before closing on my first home, but have no idea how to go about. At this point I will pay the original balance just to be done with it but I refuse to pay $541. Thanks in advance
