I attended the Academy of Computer Careers in Hammonton, NJ back in 1999 until the beginning of 2001. The school is now called Prism Education Group. The loan at the time was through TFC Credit Corporation. I have paid this segment of the loan off back in October. The payoff figure was $1,189.68. TFC called me once before about this final payment in 2003. They had admitted their mistake. Supposedly this was dealt with. I received a letter from Conserve Debt Collectors in August. I responded to them and demanded an itemized, detailed report of my account activity. I just received it February 9! I called Conserve and went through the statement with them. My payoff amount is no where on the statement. They were in agreement with me that this check was applied somewhere that it wasn't supposed to be. I asked them if they wanted me to fax a copy of the check and the bank statement to them. They said that this was not acceptable in this matter! In other words, this will not be sufficient evidence in my case! They want me to send another payment, plus interest and fees! I told them that this was absurd. The woman "Desiree" Ext. 2248, that I spoke with gave a number for TFC Credit Corporation that is no good. "Go Figure!!!" There are also a handful of friends of mine that have attended this school, and are all going through problems with their loans. "Strange, huh?" I don't think so. It sounds like a scam to me. My biggest problem is that this is on my credit report! This is now harassment as far as I'm concerned. I've contacted the Attorney General's Office, and the Better Business Bureau. I hope this matter is cleared ASAP!!! Thank you.
