Repeated harassing phone calls from "client services", constantly changing numbers. Multiple times a day. I call them back and ask what their business does and they won't tell me. They are extremely snide and rude about it when asked as well. I'm sorry I cannot disclose anything to someone who won't even tell me what their business does. Literally sounds like a scam. I'm guessing this is a collection agency and they are not going about this in the right way.Business Response

I am disputing an invalid account reported by **********************. This account is inaccurate , unverified and violates the FAIR CREDIT REPORTING ACT. Since it don't meet the legal standard for reporting, it needs immediate removal. If the furnisher cant provide proper validation, it must be deleted per federal law. (15 U.S.C 1681) I do NOT have a debt with CLIENT SERVICES INC, because I do not posses a contract with CLIENT SERVICES INC, the collection company did not provide me with the original contract as requested. Please cease and desist immediately. I have paid $125.00 per month for 1year and 7 months. I have never received a contract from client services Inc. with any account details. No beginning balance or ending balance or current balance. I want to disconnect my automatic payments as I wish to no longer continue to pay. They failed to provide necessary documentation for me to carry out continuing providing payment. I want to be fully reimbursed for my lack of knowing/knowledge about current issue. Upon reading BBB specific details about client services Inc. I feel like I've been taking advantage of and if I didn't catch it now who knows how long I could have been a victim.Business Response

I am filing this complaint against ************************** regarding their continued attempts to collect a debt, despite being informed that I am on Supplemental Security Income (SSI), which is a federally protected source of income.I contacted their office by phone and explained my situation clearlythat I receive SSI as my sole source of income and am not in a financial position to make payments. I was transparent and respectful during the conversation and expected the company to take appropriate steps to stop further collection activity .Despite this, I have continued to receive collection communications from them. I feel this is inappropriate, unnecessary.I am requesting that Client Services, ********** all collection efforts Acknowledge my financial hardship Confirm in writing that no further action will be taken against me regarding this debt I am more than willing to provide documentation if necessary to verify my income status.
