I really do n't know what my options are, if any. I had cable in my name and my mother was living with me. I moved out, and allowed my mother to keep the cable on at that address in my name. She then moved and transferred the cable to her new addeess. She ended up accumulating a large bill and was unable to pay it. The debt went to collections without my knowledge of the situation. - - never contacted me, the account holder, that the debt was going to collections, and neither did my mother. I realize I screwed up by allowing my mother to do this, but do I have any options here? My mother totally ruined my credit with credit cards she opened in my name when I was - and I finally got my credit score to a good level.
