hiii_98 asked:
this collection agency has been calling me for years about a collection over a debt my company refused to pay. The amount was 500.00. The service was setup under my LLC company’s name and tax id. But now i see that my credit score and credit report has been affected by the collection agency. I have been ignoring them for hte past 6 years because the debt (which my company protested) should have been posted against my company’s credit score not my personal. Especially with this being a limited liability coorporation what can i do to remove or dispute the charge? I had FLAWLESS credit prior to this and i’m beyond pissed. I am the ceo of the company however my social security number was definately not used when the account was setup. Any advice on how i can proceed? Do i just pay the debt and suffer the horrible score? Or where they in the wrong to place this debt on an employee?? and do i have any recourse so that i can fix my credit score? ANY advice would be appreciated.
no one knows the answer? So any employee can get reported for his/her company’s actions?!?

i’m puzzled as to how your llc is tied to your ss# if you never gave it to them
but anyway…..the collection agency is going to be calling you a bit more more the 7 yr mark is approaching and they want to get it paid before it’s MANDATORY that it comes off your credit report
it’s been 7 yrs and i personally say let it stay for the next year and then you can request that the bureau have it removed due to the statue of limitations
i’m surprised they haven’t offered you a settlement for a much lower cost
