Just a quick vent....
So I thought I was going to have wonderful two day weekend, took Saturday off so i could go to my niece's b-day, and I stop over at my dads to find they have had a few calls for me from some guy. Looking for how to get in touch with me they know better then to give my info out so i called him back to see what he wants, turns out hes some collection place looking to collected on some bill that I thought was taken care of 5 almost 6 years ago. So now I'm all twisted about that, and nothing i can do till Monday morning. Now i have to go back and call my dads insurance company that I've haven't been covered by for almost 3 years and see what the heck happened. I so don't like this feeling

That does really suck. That happened to DH with a medical bill a couple of years ago (not as long as 5 years though). He had moved and had his mail forwarded to his new address and one of the labs that had run some blood work didn't get the bill forwarded and never bothered to call the cell number or contact him but sent the bill to collections. It's funny how the lab office couldn't find him, but the collections office had no problem. We just had to get a letter written detailing what happened to add to his credit report so that it didn't affect us when we applied for our mortgage. I hope your is as relatively easy to solve as it was for us and not one of the scammer agencies like Xan was dealing with. Good luck!
