Took entire paycheck and everything in my bank account for some debt years back that could have been resolved with a letter saying HEY we can take every dime out of your account and freeze it, give a ring. NO they go right to the bank and pull every dollar out how is this even legal? The matter isnt resolved with just paying debt getting a receipt, you can pay just no way to prove you did, so they can start all over again. They all need a blood disease, I'm contacting my senator and other reps on this matter.
