At issue is a XXXX account from XXXX. The debt collection company, Stellar Recovery, is attempting to collect a debt that was never owed, and illegally trying to do so. 

The XXXX account in question was closed in XXXX or XXXX of XXXX and all equipment was returned to the local XXXX office. XXXX billed me for the equipment in XXXX XXXX, and I contacted XXXX to deal with it ( proving that I had returned the equipment ) to put the issue behind me, or so I had thought. 

Stellar Recovery must have bought this " claim '' against me in the past year because I started receiving an overwhelming amount of calls from them at all hours of the day. I told them that there was no claim here, but they continued to contact me until I told them to no longer contact me. 

I, again, thought this was behind me. I was checking my credit report today and notice that there is an unpaid collection that was filed in XXXX of XXXX by Stellar Recovery in the amount that they assert. Note, that even if Stellar Recovery had a valid claim, it was no longer legally enforceable because the Tennessee statute of Limitations had run its course ( limit of 6 years that runs from when the demand could have been made ). 

This is outrageous and unacceptable. Stellar Recovery is attempting to strongarm me into paying a debt that I never owed based on what is a clerical error at best, and an outright lie at worst. Moreover, as a company that specializes in debt collection, they are well aware of statutes of limitation, it is my contention that they are intentionally misrepresenting the collectability of the debt to the credit bureaus, and that the report should be removed.
