Issue: Communication tactics
Subissue: You told them to stop contacting you, but they keep trying
Consumer Complaint: IC systems has been repeatedly calling my phone number provided in previous questions and have informed me of having a file placed with them by a health provider and have asked me to confirm my information, they then give me a partial address and ask if this is correct, I ask what it is regarding and they refuse to answer my questions, they then kept pushing for my personal information such as social security number- I do not give it until I can verify what IC systems is calling about- they then repeat that they wont discuss the " file '' until I provide personal information, I then ask what exactly it is regarding and that I will not volunteer that information until I am provided a reason for their call, they then hang up on me and will not answer my questions. This feels like an absolute scam in refusing to discuss the reason for their call until I provide personal information. They say the file originated from a health care provider, however we have no outstanding balances anywhere.

Issue: Attempts to collect debt not owed
Subissue: Debt is not yours
Consumer Complaint: IC systems contacted me once about an alleged bill with some tv company. I know this debt is not mine, they may have me confused with my ex wife, so I explained this debt was not mine and asked for validation of this debt through a letter. No debt validation was sent nor any proof this debt as being mine. I now have this collection showing on my credit files which is completely unacceptable. This collection must be removed from my credit files immediately. IC systems has a poor BBB rating, multiple complaints for illegal and harassing collection tactics, and is listed on watch lists monitoring fraudulent and scam debt collection. I will be filing a complaint with the BBB and state attorney general 's office immediately as well.

Consumer Complaint: I closed my account with XXXX and paid my account in full. They never explained or let me know about any equipment I needed to return. I also bought my own router too, I thought I did n't need to return anything since they never mention it. I 'm not sure what is the equipment they are charging me for, and why in the whole would they sent this account to a collection agency if it had been only 3 weeks, no 3 months, but 3 weeks since I closed my account. What is this? A pay back because I closed my account with them? I am in the process of buying a house, the least thing I want right now is some account collection showing on my credit report.

Subissue: Information belongs to someone else
Consumer Complaint: On XX/XX/XXXX, I checked my credit on XXXX and realized there was a derogatory mark on there. It is from XXXX XXXX XXXX and the collections agency is IC System. There are two separate accounts that have been opened in my name that I have not opened. The first account was opened XX/XX/XXXX and the second account opened XX/XX/XXXX. I received a copy of the signed agreements and they are both signed in my name but it is not my signature. I have never owned cats or stepped foot into a XXXX XXXX XXXX. I have contacted both the collections agency and the pet hospital. The pet hospital told me to contact the credit bureau. Apparently from the explanation at the pet hospital, a wellness agreement was signed so that they could direct debit monthly from the persons bank account. Since the bank account information had to be obtained for the person to sign the agreement, it does not make sense how they could put it on my credit report when it is not from my bank account.

Issue: Attempts to collect debt not owed
Subissue: Debt was result of identity theft
Consumer Complaint: Received original letter from XXXX XXXX, about a {$33.00} debt from XXXX under my name on FL, after contacting collector I identified it was the result of identity theft. Contacted the police and informed XXXX XXXX, submitting copies of Police Report, this was XXXX XXXX XXXX ; in XXXX XXXX I received a new letter from XXXX XXXX regarding the same issue - I quickly submitted same paperwork to them and formally asked the debt to stop being sold to new collectors - and to my surprise I just got a letter last week from IC Systems, XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX XXXX, MN XXXX about the same debt. It is clearly a case of identity theft, after I submit the paperwork thXXXX collectors never contact me again but they kept selling my debt/information. I just want this to stop. At this point I 'm not looking for legal reparations, but will if this practice does not cease. Please help me stop this non-sense. thx XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXXXXXX

Consumer Complaint: IC System keeps contacting me. I set up payments with them and there was some glitch on the second payment so they called me and demanded immediate payment, giving me a deadline of 3 months. I disputed the amount of this collection and only set up the payment plan so they would stop harassing me, but it looks like they plan on harassing me either way. When they call, they refuse to leave messages.
