Earlier today I presented myself at School Employees Credit Union of Washington for the purpose of applying for an auto loan. The loan was denied and I was advised that there was adverse information on my Experian Credit Report from Asset Management, a collection agency of California. The lender informed me that the credit report showed that Asset Management was collecting this for SBC.
This debt is not mine. Approximately two years ago, I received a notice from Asset Management alleging that I owed money to SBC for a California address that I have never had. I live in Washington State. I contacted both SBC and Asset Management and Asset Management advised me that they would contact the merchant, but couldn't adjust the debt. At this point I filed a formal online complaint with the California Public Utility Commission and the next day I received a phone call from a representative who advised me that the CPUC was going to make a ruling in my favor and against SBC Phone Company for erroneous billing information.
I have not heard anything from anyone until I applied for credit today. I have again contacted Glen Brock at Asset Management and Recovery. This agency should be sued because I have never had a phone account at this address. I believe the following URL to be the correct web address for SBC http://www.att.com/gen/landing-pages? Pid=3308
