If a collection agency posted a check a day before the agreed date against one of your accounts what can you do about this?

Nothing unless it caused the account to be overdrawn and fees were charged. However that would be an issue for the bank which processed the check previous to posted date.

If you offer to pay a lessor amount on a hospital bill then was previously agreed upon can they still send the account to a collection agency?
Yes. You have a legal contract to pay the agreed upon amount. If they did not accept your latest offer, they can send the bill to a collection agency.
If you are making sporadic payments to a collection agency and they cash them can they still sue the cosigner?
Unless you have a specific repayment plan that the collection agency agreed to, there is no legal reason that cannot sue the cosigner.
If something has been sent to collection can the collection agency charge you interest?
If the original creditor charged interest then the collection agency will continue to accrue interest at either your states legal rate or whatever you agreed to in the original contract until the debt is either paid or sold to another collection agency or placed with an attorneys firm for legal litigation.
How do you pay a collection account?
Have the collection agency send a written agreement accepting the settlement or payment amount agreed upon BEFORE rendering any payment(s).
Can a collection agency pull more money out of your account than you agreed upon?
Not legally, no. Call them and demand they replace your funds.
What should you do if you received a bill from a collection agency but you and your doctor had negotiated a different price but you don't have it in writing?
Write your doctor and try to get the terms in a letter (that would remediate the proof issue that you raised). If the doctor is honest and this is truly your agreement with him/her, that should get the collection agency to stop calling, unless they are calling you for a portion of the unpaid, agreed-upon balance.
Can a collection agency charge interest on an account they bought and do you have to pay them since you never entered into a contract with them?
Sorry but yes they can. In the original contract there was a clause about what actions could be taken if you defaulted on the agreement and one of those actions is that the account could be turned over to a collection agency. So, even though you didn't directly enter into a contract with the collection agency you agreed to abide by the contract and the collection agency now legally owns the contract. It works the same way as when you purchase a house. At some point the original lender on a house may sell the contract and you will be paying a different lender.
Can i have your aqw accounts?
Trading/Buying/Selling accounts in AQWorlds is against the Terms and Conditions you agreed to when making your account or a account. #4 subsection p p. You agree not to share, trade, sell or gift/give away your accounts or accept access to an account that is not yours;
What does insufficient number of accounts paid as agreed mean?
This means out of the total number of accounts you have, you have not paid on enough of them as agreed when you where issued the account. Example would be late payments.
Can a collection agency reject a payment from you if it is less than the payment for the settlement they asked for?
Yes, a creditor/collector has no legal obligation to accept payment for anything other than the agreed upon amount. The same premise applies to making less than the minimum payment on credit accounts as well, such action would render the agreement null and void and the creditor can legally demand payment in full.
If you have a 2300 dollar hospital bill and you make 20 dollar monthly payments are they allowed to send the matter to a collection agency?
No, as long as you have contacted the hospital and they are aware that you are paying a monthly amount and have agreed to accept that amount, they can not send you to collections. Most hospitals also have financial hardship programs and charity options. You should contact them to see if you qualify. I work for University Of Maryland and do ER billing. If you have a debt and the collecting party has proof of this debt, they have the option of selling your debt to a collection agency unless otherwise agreed upon through some legal channel.
What can a collection agency do to collect a 2000 dollar debt?
The answer to your question is NO, a collection company absolutly can not touch your assets, income, or bank accounts without a court order. Even for them to attain that, they would have to take you to court and litagate, and even this scenario is unlikely (although still possible). There is a terrific web site that you may visit that provides a terrific explaination of collection company tactics and policies. Visit Credit Problems. :o) THEY CAN NOT TOUCH YOUR ASSETS, INCOME ETC, BUT THEY CAN TAKE YOU TO COURT AND PLACE A JUDGEMENT AGAINST YOU BUT IF YOU ARE STILL UNEMPLOYED YOU HAVE NO INCOME ANY WAY SO THEN YOU WOULD BECOME JUDGEMENT PROOF UNTIL YOU FIND EMPLOYMENT. ONLY AFTER JUDGEMENT IS IN PLACE CAN THEY SEEK A GARNISHMENT IF YOU STILL FAIL TO PAY THE AMOUNT AGREED UPON IN COURT. JUST WENT THRU IT SO IT IS FIRST HAND KNOWLEDGE!!!
