ERC Debt Collection Complaint

ERC Debt collection department,

Other (i.e. phone, health club, etc.) False statements or representation Attempted to collect wrong amount California

I live in California which puts a cap on the amount of interest a debt collector can charge in interest by debt collectors. This is in regards to an old - - - bill. Which shows as the amount owed to the original company as $150.00 and now with the collections agency it 's more than tripled which even at the highest interest rates is impossible were I living in - of the - states without a legal interest cap debt collectors can charge by law, but luckily I live in California. I would like to take care of this so that it 's off my credit report but the company states I now owe $500.00 rather than the $150.00. Please investigate this, I was told that this collections agency previously had its authority revoked for similar issues experienced by multiple consumers.
