I contacted the above named party, H&R collections, and informed them of my situation. I am still unemployed. I had hoped to resolve problems with my former employer but that is still unresolved.

      Over a year ago, I received a bill from H&R Accounts. I paid the bill. A few months later I received ANOTHER bill - which had an incorrect amount on it. (I initially thought the first bill included ALL of the money owed - apparently I was wrong). I disputed the bill. They continued to send the bill WITHOUT ANY verification of the amount. I continued to dispute the bill each time it was sent to me. They called me - I told them the amount was wrong. They CLAIMED they had verified it - and I asked for proof, because the amount was wrong. They threatened me with reporting this to the Credit Bureaus - I told them AGAIN - that the amount was wrong and I am disputing it. I filed a complaint with the Attorney General of ****. Magically, they got the correct amount. I received a notice with the correct amount - but no information on where to send payment, no website to pay. I thought a regular bill would finally come that I could pay. After waiting about a month - I finally called and got the website from the voicemail. I tried to go online and pay the bill. The system would not let **** called on Monday 5/1/23 - and paid the bill over the phone. I asked the person I talked with why I couldn't pay it online? He said because it showed that its status was: IN DISPUTE.So... I pay the bill - IN FULL - and TODAY (5/3/23) - I received an email telling me a MAJOR DEROGATORY REMARK is on my Credit Report. I've called today at various times and have been waiting for a call back from a Supervisor for over FIVE HOURS. If they wanted my money - they would be calling me back IMMEDIATELY. THEY ARE BULLIES
