I had a credit card, auto loan, and personal loan from XXXX XXXX sent to Stephens and Michael 's Associates debt collection law firm. While making the payments to Stephen 's and Michael 's I was under the impression that all of my payments were going towards the debt. When I completed my payments with Stephen 's and Michael 's I contacted the bank to get the title of the car since I was under the impression that all our debts had been paid. The bank explained to me that Stephen 's and Michael 's charges a XXXX-XXXX % fee and that I still owe the bank. Even the customer service representative admitted that this is a common tactic of Stephen 's and Michael 's and that others have been led to believe that their debts were fully paid off when they in fact were not. The entire time in dealing with Stephen 's and Michael 's I was never informed of this fee and the fact that the final payment I made was n't going to fully satisfy the debt.
