Let me start my saying that this started about a year ago with Palisades Collection Agency. They called to inform me that my husband owed on an Heilig Meyers account, which in fact had been paid off in full in 2000. I informed the people at Palisades of this several times. They told me that unless I produced the receipt that I was liable for the amount of $1,110.00. We have searched high and low for the receipt. I told them that after almost 6 years that I could not find it, and I would not pay for something that I has already been paid for. They continued to call daily, and send letters. I ignored them thinking that they could not do this, well today I opened my door to a Sheriff deputy holding papers where Palisades Collection Agency is suing me... I called Palisades, and spoke with a man by the name of Bruce, he stated that this was to be taken off of my credit report by Dec 10th.
I told him that was great other that I am now being sued. He then said that I would have to call the lawyers office and speak with them, and that they could take care of stopping the proceedings. I then called the lawyers office, spoke with a man by the name of Bruce, he stated that he could not assist me, and I would have to call another lawyer at a different law firm. Needless to say I will be talking with my own attorney tomorrow. This is unbelievable how company's can do this to people. Our account was paid years ago, and now this. These people must have a hard time sleeping at night.
