    To whom it may concern:

    This is the first dispute we receive from Mr. ******** regarding account 676537-1 in collections. Validation notices where mailed out to Mr. ********** address on 01/23/2023, 03/17/2023 and 04/23/2025.  We have not been notified by Mr. ******** that he wanted verification of debt for the itemized copy of the charges turned to collections. We can certainly provide that as Mr. ******** has now requested.  We can be contacted at ************ or email us at ****************************** for any questions.

However, BBB does not verify the accuracy of information provided by third parties, and does not guarantee the accuracy of any information in Business Profiles.

When considering complaint information, please take into account the company's size and volume of transactions, and understand that the nature of complaints and a firm's responses to them are often more important than the number of complaints.

BBB Business Profiles generally cover a three-year reporting period, except for customer reviews. Customer reviews posted prior to July 5, 2024, will no longer be published when they reach three years from their submission date. Customer reviews posted on/after July 5, 2024, will be published indefinitely unless otherwise voluntarily retracted by the user who submitted the content, or BBB no longer believes the review is authentic. BBB Business Profiles are subject to change at any time. If you choose to do business with this company, please let them know that you checked their record with BBB.

As a matter of policy, BBB does not endorse any product, service or business. Businesses are under no obligation to seek BBB accreditation, and some businesses are not accredited because they have not sought BBB accreditation. BBB charges a fee for BBB Accreditation.
