Consumer Complaint: This issue began last year,XX/XX/XXXX around this same time. I got into some financial troubles so fell behind on payments however each time I was contacted ( at this time only once per month ) I spoke with the rep and expressed my desire to NOT have the credit line closed and that I would make payments to catch up. Fast forward to XX/XX/XXXX, I made a {$300.00} payment towards a {$580.00} balance, it was only AFTER the payment was submitted and my credit report updated did that company then state the account was closed by consumer and they would not reopen, Ever since making that payment I have since been called on a DAILY BASIS! After SEVERAL requests to not be contacted and that I would cover the balance as soon as possible, They have since continued to call and recently started to contact my family members in regards to this account. They refused to remove the report stating I asked for the account to be closed which is a blatant lie, yet they continue to harass me day after day by leaving voicemails constantly.
