Consumer Complaint: My complaint is against Professional Collection Services. They are trying to collect XXXX debts in the amounts of {$330.00} and {$1000.00}. I have searched my personal files and have found nothing that would indicate I owe this debt. I have requested they send me proof of the debt but to date they have ignored my request and keep sending letters stating I do owe the debt. i have received no proof that I have requested. How can a third part try to collect on debts when they have no idea if it ‘s a real debt or not? They can insist a person owes the debt but can offer up no solid proof of the debt. This is not acceptable. They ca n’t just expect a person to pay a lot of money without proof of the debt..
