Complaint Review: Allied Interstate

In 2002 I declared bankruptcy. Allied interstate was the collection agency that handled the claim for directv an satellite company. I recieved a full discharge from the listed creditor. I thought the whole ordeal was over with until this year(2008).

I tried to get directv again and the company had no problem until they checked their records and found that I had a closed account that was still in collections with Allied interstate. before i wanted satellite I need to pay this bill. they had no records of it being discharge during any bankruptcy. they wanted me to pay the outstanding balenance for they would turn on the service.

Allied Interstate never contacted Directv to update them. I payed the money owed on the account and got satellite. I have this company (Allied Interstate for Directv) list on my schedule for discharge. both Allied Interstate and Directv said they have no records of this when I have proof from my lawyer and from the courts that say otherwise.

Don't trust Allied to be professional, and never let them handle any paperwork information that needs to go to a company they represent.
