I HAD AN ACCOUNT WITH FLORIDA POWER AND LIGHT WHICH WAS CLOSED ON XXXX/XXXX/2013 AMD PAID IN FULL. I SOLD THE PROPERTY ON THIS DATE AND PAID THE FINAL BILL I WAS SENT. XXXX STATES I OWED XXXX DOLLARS DUE TO BUDGET BILLING HOWEVER I WAS NEVER NOTIFIED AS THE PROPERTY I WAS SOLD I NO LONGER LIVED IN. XXXX DID NOT EMAIL NOR ATTEMPT TO CALL THE PHONE ASSOCIATED WITH THE ACCOUNT AND SENT THE BILL TO COLLECTIONS. AS OF TODAY I PAID THE REMAINING AMOUNT ION FULL HOWEVER XXXX STATES THEY WILL NOT REMOVE THE COLLECTION FROM THE CREDIT BUREAUS.
