Katherine. My suggestion would be to continue to pay the bill since you have already made one payment, and that way you may avoid future fees, interests etc. As long as you send them money and continue to pay( any amount no matter how small) on what you owe, NCO can't really do anything. My understanding is they are not a true collection agency, in that they are third party (although if they are the issuers of the credit card not sure what in's and out's of that are. Why has nothing been done to stop the company? My opinion is not enough people have pushed backed yet and NCO is wise enough to know if they make this a continued habit it will blow up in their face. Fortunately for us consumers, the very nature of NCO and other companies like them means they will slip up at some time and be caught in their own rope, so keep reporting and each reports adds weight to what will eventually pull them down.
