Another case of verizon using creditors to demand payment for mystery phone bill with some real phone charge gouging.
VERIZON HAS SENT ME A PHONE BILL via a new Collection Agency Palisades Collection Agency # account number 11597844 that I owe $5000 for a back phone bill for when I lived in Maryland. I moved from this state and paid my last bill in 2004. I paid the amount as agreed upon and my account was closed and my credit reflected the change. Now five years later I am told that I owe $ 5000 this is not right and I have sent another letter telling the creditors this is not my bill and it must be identity fraud because I have not lived in Maryland since 2002.
Secondly, I paid my last bill and the account was closed.
I have sent letters and called Verizon to discuss this matter with no success. Verizon has adopted this practice of inventing mystery phone accounts and charging outrageous sums of money because I am not the only one to file a complaint about VERIZON'S unethical practices.
