I had an account with Newport News (FCNB Bank) Due to financial difficulties I was unable to pay them. I did try to contact them when I had the funds. When I made the attempt to contact them; they had no record of my account. I tried several times and I received the same information.
5 years after I receive a letter from a lawyer stating I was going to be sued for 4100.00 dollars owed to Capital One as they took over the account from Newport News. I received no information stating the account was going to be transferred. I made a repayment plan with the lawyer and I was paying them until I received a letter from Capital One thanking me for my 100 payment and stating my balance was 1900. A year later.
I tried to contact the lawyer because the amount they stated I owed was different from what was on file with Capital One. I sent a certified letter to the lawyer requesting a statement of the funds I paid them and also a break down of the funds owed.
I have yet to receive a response a month 1/2 later. I have contacted the FTC and I was advised this has happen to a number of people who had a newport news account as the went bankrupt in 2003. If anyone has any information that is helpful it would be appreciated as I would like to get this settled
