[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'm honestly scared of the collections issue. Bc it seems legit. One of the BBB complaint says this:
07/13/2024

Complaint Type:
    Billing Issues
Status:
    Unanswered

I paid an attendant $15 for Special Event Parking in *********, ** to park in a lot with a sign stating $15 for parking. I receive a bill **** Vanguard parking solutions for $59.4 saying I had not paid for the parking with photos of our license plate which I disputed. I was told that while it was under dispute not other charges would occur. I received a second bill for $91.80 and then was told the owner of the lot would have to give permission to resolve the issue. There has been no other correspondence with them so I thought the issue was resolved until I received a bill from Penn Credit collections. I have already paid for this parking and shouldn't have to be blackmailed to pay again.[/quote]

Just fyi for the future I once got a collections notice from a company that I had canceled my membership with (it was a nightmare and I went in circles with them trying all sorts of ploys to keep me as a customer). Didn’t get anymore bills then months later a collections notice. I called the collections company and asked for proof of debt. They then “looked in my file” and said they would close it out. I never paid them and my credit was never dinged.

Collections agents are scammy and hope people will get scared and just pay. Before paying anything in the future I would 100% at least try calling first and asking for some sort of proof.[/quote]
