Hello all,

Just had a quick question about some follow-up I need to do. I helped a woman sign up for the debt collective and dispute two of her debts in September. She just called to inform me that one of the debtors is still calling her and made no mention of receiving a letter. I’m meeting her at a local library in a couple of days to discuss. Should I direct her towards someone in particular?

Also, my apologies if I’ve posted in the wrong place.

Thanks!
Elia

Hi folks,
For those of you using the dispute tools that encounter someone Spanish speaking.

We have a Spanish version of our Video Explaining the Dispute Platform.

Here is a Spanish version of instruction on how to view the dispute letter.

Thank you everyone!!! I used the wrong command trying to test platform notifications to users. I am sorry to bother you all!

But HEY!.. hope the error gets folks back on the platform… We are working really hard to get this functioning so that it is easy and smooth for all of us.

Stay tuned for the real and meaningful stuff to come…

STILL TESTING…
