Focus Holding Company Debt Collection Complaint

Focus Holding Company Debt collection department,

Other (phone, health club, etc.) Disclosure verification of debt Right to dispute notice not received Tennessee

I noticed a collection from Focus MGMT on my annual credit report. It included a charge of $82.00 from - with an opened dated of -/-/-. I immediately called and spoke in detail with Focus MGMT about the invalid account claims for services never rendered. I explained in detail as to how - was unable to bill me for services due to the fact I had n't resided at - - - - -, TN - since -/-/-. - indicated services was rendered in -/-/- long after I relocated. I preceded to ask for a signed receipt for services rendered in -. I was advised that the account would be referred back to the originally customer ( - ) as an deputed account. I had yet to receive documentation from either parties. Three months later, Focus MGMT just reported account on - with the same information. My question is why I was n't notified previous to the collections being placed for collection? I shared my current address with Focus MGMT when I requested for a signed document containing a verifiable submission of services received ( since I know they do n't exist ). I would like to think this company is n't trying to destroy my credit by not giving notice and placing bogus accounts on my report!
