Consumer Narrative
I have two companies actively pursuing the same medical debt from me. I have asked for validation letters and they provided with the exact same bills. I do not know who to pay or to set up plans with as they both say they own the debt. Bessine is charging interest and threatening to take me to court Consumer collections is not charging interest but is showing on my credit as a collection. I have attached the letters and records of both.
