I originally opened the account but released all control to my daughter when she moved XXXX by phone with a XXXX rep XXXX years ago. I have never been billed for the account in the past 7 years ... my billing address is not on the account because everything was through online bill pay ... eco bill. I do n't have access to the account and now all of a sudden it has gone to collections and they are saying I am the original account holder and responsible for the past due balance owed on the account ... supposedly my social is tied to the account so that means you should also have access to my other account in order to contact me about the past due amount. XXXX dinged my credit without contacting me XXXX. When I called XXXX their excuse was we billed the address on file. I know that was a lie because everything was online bill pay. There was no address on file I know that for a fact because the rep asked me for the password that was on her account so they could access the account. I told them I had no clue to the password since it was not my account. I also know my email address was not on her account. When she took over the account everything was changed to reflect her ... email address and password ... only she had access to the account. They had no problems allowing her to take over the account so they should be holding her responsible for the bill. Everything is done through email because that 's what the account preferences were set up as. That 's not acceptable ... they have my address on file because I have my own XXXX account so they ca n't say they could n't find me. I have lived at the same address for 20 years and had the same XXXX account for the past 13 years. You ca n't say its my account and never bill me for it. I have received no paper, phone, or email contact over the above referenced account number for the past due balance. You ca n't have you cake & pie and eat too. I was never given a chance to dispute this ... it just showed up on my credit report XXXX hours ago. I received a text alert from XXXX that this was just added to my report. 

My credit report reads as such : ALLIED INTERSTATE $ XXXX XXXX account reported on XXXX XXXX, XXXX : Account # XXXX : $ XXXX Creditor : XXXX XXXX Balance $ XXXX Date : XXXX XXXX, XXXX Reported : XXXX XXXX, XXXX : IndividualRemarks : Placed for collection
