My ex-spouse passed away. Medical bills for my children that my ex-spouse was legally responsible for were not paid. The bills were being sent to him. I had no knowledge of the bill until I received a notice from my credit monitoring company. I contact the collection agency and was told it is my problem and to take my dead ex-spouse to court. They refused to work with me and told me it is my problem and I have to pay the bill, just before hanging up on me. They offered NO documentation that this bill was valid nor did they made any attempts to contact me regarding outstanding debt. I have since paid the debt even though I have received no proof that exists and have filed dispute cases with the credit reporting just to not have it impact my credit report. I find it unacceptable that a debt owed by my deceased ex-spouse be charged negatively against my credit when I have NO knowledge of its existence.
