Tell us has your experience with this business or person been good? What's this?
Today my husband and I received a bill for something his late wife supposedly owed to Fingerhut. His former wife died on November 4, 1999. We have not received a single bill in the two years that I have lived here.

Now all of a sudden we are getting something from the Law Offices of Mitchell N. Kay saying that if we pay the $227.45 they will update its reporting on her credit rating with a paid in full zero balance.

Please! The woman passed on three years ago. I tried to call this company and was never able to speak to a human. Furthermore, I was on hold for over an hour on one of my calls. I finally gave up.

Third party debt collectors have a reputation for doing these stunts. If his information was no where on the account then he is not responsible. If she purchased the items with perhaps a cc that they both shared then he will. Unfortunatly there is no law that states that a company has to contact you about a debt in a certain amount of time. If he finds that the account was completly in her name then what he should do is find the address of the collector, and send them a cease communications notice. Its nothing fancy or formal, just a letter stating that he understands that the company is trying to collect a debt, but the debt is not his and he would not like to be contacted at all by the company. Send the letter certified mail with return receipt to the company. (that way you know, and have proof that they got it) Good luck.
