I had an account with XXXX XXXX but was mislead from the beginning on what the monthly payments would be. After that I switched my account over to XXXX who was supposed to pay off the transfer fees but never did. I received Collections calls from a company called Valentine and Kebartas regarding the debt. I worked with them for some time making bi weekly pmts of XXXX dollars. I had paid off almost half of the debt and came upon harder financial times. I spoke to a single rep regularly, but one day when i called back I spoke with a rep I had never before spoke with. I made a pmt of XXXX dollars and made him aware that I would only be able to pay monthly and that I would not be able to afford to pay what I was paying before. He told me that was fine and that he would schedule for me to be called in a month. Following that payment and agreement with the rep, I continued to receive up to five collections calls per day. After a week of receiving those calls during work and at all hours, I finally answered and spoke with the rep that I normally worked with. I asked why I was still receiving calls after having made a payment and worked out an arrangement with the other agent. She told me that the payment I made was not enough and that the account had been sent back by the " System '' and that is why I was still getting calls. After having worked with them for so long and even having made a payment as recently as the day before, that amount of calls was definitely harassment. Statements of my account automatically being sent to the system were also false and misleading. I work in collections and am very familiar with the way an auto dialer works and the work that is taken to load them. Arrangements should not have been agreed to if they were supposedly not " sufficient '' to keep them off of the dialer. receiving collections calls the next business day after having made a payment and agreements, is harassment and not fair collections practices. And blaming those tactics on the " system '' is misleading and a downright lie. 

I discussed witht he rep and a supervisor settlement options to avoid legal assistance or escalated complaints, but was not given any real help. I have already paid over half a debt for a service that I practically never used, and canceled because of misleading and deceptive tactics used by a sales rep belonging to the same mother company, XXXX XXXX.
