Consumer Narrative
This is a two-fold issue, I will address these separately below : 1 ) Collecting a Time Barred Debt : In XX/XX/2022, while looking for information about a similarly named family member on the ClarkCountyNV.gov website, my wife discovered what appeared to be an open case against me with our local court. We had no knowledge of this case having never received a summons or any other communication regarding this XXXX XXXX XXXX case. On XX/XX/2022 my wife called the debt collector involved, Rausch Sturm LLP, to resolve the issue NOT KNOWING OR BEING ADVISED that this was now a time barred debt that we could not be sued for. At no time during her conversation with the Rausch Sturm representative was she informed of this and that by speaking with this representative she was actually restarting the clock on this old debt. 2 ) Reneging on Agreement : During the conversation with this representative, a financial agreement was made and my wife was informed that as soon as the agreed upon amount was paid, a Satisfaction would be sent to the Court. On XX/XX/2022 we received an email confirmation from this representative. On XX/XX/2022 the agreed upon amount of {$320.00} was made via phone to Rausch Sturm. This was posted to my wife 's bank account in the form of an ACH check on XXXX XXXX. On XX/XX/2022 my wife emailed the representative informing her that the case was still showing as open on the ClarkCountyNV.gov website and asking to have it updated as per the Agreement. No response was received. On XX/XX/2022 my wife sent another email to " XXXX '' regarding the above. No response has been received and as of today, XX/XX/2022 the case is still showing as open.
