Complaint What Happened |
On XX/XX/XXXX I was alerted by my XXXX credit app there was a collection placed on my credit from AFNI for XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX for {$560.00}.
I did NOT receive any call or correspondence to notify me.
I called XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX on XX/XX/XXXX at XXXX spoke to Employee ID XXXX. I provided him the tracking numbers for the equipment returned on XX/XX/XXXX. He confirmed seeing the items received by XXXX XXXX XXXX on XX/XX/XXXX and indicated I should not have any charges and they would mark for review and call me in 24-48 hours. They never did.
I called AFNI on XX/XX/XXXX at XXXX spoke to a woman who did not have a employee #. I explained to her what XXXX XXXX XXXX said. That this is inaccurate and I was not notified and wanted this resolved and removed from my credit. She said they would mark it " paid '' if I paid it that day. I continued to reiterate I was not legally notified and it was inaccurate. When I asked her what day they mailed me a notice she said " I see the letter was suppressed and it did not go out. I will request deletion from the credit bureaus '' I requested a letter in writing confirming that she said they would mail one.
To date I have not received a deletion letter and it is still on my credit. On XX/XX/XXXX I received the first and only notice of collection. Still trying to collect the account regardless of my disputes and proof of tracking numbers.
Neither party has done what they said and rectified this matter and my credit has not been corrected per the conversations. I have not had XXXX XXXX since XXXX and once I returned the equipment I was never notified of anything since. In accordance to federal Fair Credit Reporting Act 611 I am disputing the information and also reporting violation of the lack of notification prior to putting the erroneous account on my credit.

Complaint What Happened |
I received a collection notice dated XX/XX/XXXX from a company called " afni '' in XXXX, Illinois. The notice is attempting to collect a debt for XXXX for a company phone I was issued by my employer at the time, XXXX XXXX The managers didn't want the phones, we returned the phones in XXXX and our employer covered the costs.
I spoke to XXXX at afni this morning, who told me the debt of {$94.00} has been reported on my credit reports, that he would indicate the debt is disputed but wouldn't guarantee the debt would cease being reported to the bureaus. The debt is invalid! The debt is from 10 or 11 years ago. Please advise afnit to cease and desist immediately.
Please contact me if you have any additional questions. Thank you very much for your assistance with this matter

Complaint What Happened |
I would like to file a complaint against AFNI , Inc. for violating my rights listed in Fair Debt Collection Practices Act, 15 USC 1692g. I received a letter from AFNI on XX/XX/2018 that was dated for XX/XX/2018 regarding a debt with XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX. I sent a dispute in response to this letter ; via certified mail, on XX/XX/2018. The letter was received and signed for on XX/XX/2018, by a XXXX XXXX. In my letter I disputed the debt, requested validation of the debt from their company, based on my rights, in reference to the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act, 15 USC 1692g.
The debt is still showing on all three credit reports, and they have also stated the debt is valid in a dispute I made with XXXX on XX/XX/2018 after sending the request for validation. I sent all correspondence between AFNI, Inc. and I to XXXX, regarding this debt. Even though AFNI, Inc. had not provided me any information regarding the debt in question, AFNI, Inc. responded to XXXX that the debt was valid.
I still had not received a response and the collection was still showing on my credit report on XX/XX/2018 so, I sent them another letter ; via certified mail, requesting removal of this debt from all collection agencies. This debt has not been removed from any of my three credit reports ; therefore, I would like to file a complaint against AFNI , Inc., for violating the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act, 15 USC 1692g.

Complaint What Happened |
I received a letter that is identified as XXXX XXXX XXXX. The letter is dated XX/XX/XXXX. The letter purports that I owe XXXX XXXX XXXX {$8500.00} related to the time period of XX/XX/XXXX to XX/XX/XXXX. The account from XXXX XXXX XXXX is identified as two different account numbers. The letter does not provide an email address for me to respond to. The letter does not identify how or where the charges accrued. The letter demands that I send personal information, including a copy of my drivers license and my social security number, by the end of XXXX or my account will be sent to collections. This looks a savvy scheme to collect identity information and financial information on a person.
