I should have been able to send them to collections. They eventually paid me but the ding on my credit report stuck around for 7 years.Daizyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08075279944974601962noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6787157690355329112.post-22104971658283582312016-03-31T20:07:41.365-07:002016-03-31T20:07:41.365-07:00Sometimes trying to fix an error just makes a bigg...Sometimes trying to fix an error just makes a bigger mess.

My last big thing like that was I got a home equity line of credit, just in case, during the financial crisis cause my credit union does it free. I didn't borrow anything and when it was over they reported me that I didn't pay my zero dollars due and TRANS UNION would not fix it - it was reported as a no pay. In the bad section of the report.<br /><br />You are very patientAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6787157690355329112.post-62966156952752833322016-03-30T07:26:17.932-07:002016-03-30T07:26:17.932-07:00Looks like everyone is conspiring to rip you off, ...Looks like everyone is conspiring to rip you off, Daizy. Good for you to thwart their attempts. I hope you caught them all.<br /><br />That double-billing incident reminded me of a time back in the 1980s when I made a $100 cash deposit at my bank and because that teller had a problem with the printer thingy they run the deposit slip through, they stamped the slip "deposits subject to collection, unless cash". I wasn't worried because I had deposited cash. But I later discovered that somehow the $100 deposit had been credited TWICE. Month after month went by and the bank never changed anything. This was a real-life version of the Community Chest card in Monopoly, "Bank Error in Your Favor, Collect $200." I had little money at the time and was annoyed at my bank for a different reason so I had little incentive to tell them. I figure this put me in the black $100 in the "life's little ripoffs" bucket so any time something happens when it costs me a little money due to a ripoff, I don't get upset.Davehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05503978839912338538noreply@blogger.com
