I received a call about a week ago regarding a bill from - that I truly believe was taken care of months ago. I requested a validation of the debt because of this and the collector refused. I continued to ask for validation and why he could n't provide it. He became very heated and argumentative at which point I ended the call as I was not going to tolerate the yelling. He immediately called me back and said " our call must have been disconnected '', which clearly was not the case. He continued to be loud and argumentative. He then indicated that he was marking my account as refusal to pay ( even though I have not refused to pay ). I told him to do what he felt he needed to do, but since this was n't the case I needed to speak to a supervisor.


was to get back with me regarding the situation, but no call or letter was received to this effect. Fast forward to today, I get a call from another bill collector ( same company ) and he indicates there are no notes about this previous call having issues, no request for quality assurance to review and no indication that I made claims of FDCPA violations. I request to speak to his supervisor to verify this information and I spoke with - who was very nice, but did indicate the only thing notated was that i requested a bill from them. He indicated he was going to take action on this, but still tried to collect the balance on the bill. I know they need to ask, I worked in collections for 10 years. It just seemed slightly inappropriate given the circumstances of why I was speaking with him. Thinking further, they also did not do anything to truly verify I was who they were looking for. Granted my name is quite uncommon, they just asked if I was so-and-so and did not request I verify an address or date of birth or anything of that nature.
