I began receiving letters regarding an old debt from nearly 20 years ago that I was certain I had paid. We had a flood, and I had no documentation to prove it, so when I got the phone calls, I told the agent that I would look into it before paying. He said, " Well, go ahead and pay now and if you find that you already paid, we will refund your money. '' I told him no, but that I would look into it. It was for a XXXX bill of XXXX. I called XXXX today ( XXXX ). They said I do not owe them the bill. They also would not have allowed me to start my cellular service with them in XXXX had I had a past due amount with them. They ran a credit check on me in XXXX. Today they checked again using my social security number and maiden name and have no record of me owing them at this time. I was sure I had paid it, and settled for around 400 when I did. I called Dynamic Recovery Solutions today, spoke to a supervisor and told her what happened, that her employee tried to have me pay before checking things out, and that the bill is not even legitimate. She said I needed to dispute it. I told her that they did n't get my information from XXXX, and I contacted them directly, and that I am not engaging in this. Especially with a company that may not even be legitimate, and trying to get people to pay when they should n't. She also told me they fired that employee, XXXX, which was a lie, because he called me today at XXXX from the number XXXX and left me a voicemail stating that we had spoken before and that I need to call him back as fast as humanly possible.
