I used to have a credit card from a clearing house in houston. I paid off the credit card and closed. This company was then bought by fleet cc.
A few years later I moved to England and when I came back, I had a bunch of mail from fleet stating that I owe them money. When I enquired about this, I was told that there was a balance of $3 that was not paid off when the clearing house sold the company.
They said since this was not paid off, I was being charged late fees for the past years. They said I was owing them $200-$400. Which I disputed but to no avail. They had already reported me to the credit companies. Now my credit has a dent because of Fleet CC.

request PROOF that you agreed to accept responsibilty for the account

Ok, what you need to do is DISPUTE the debt with the credit reporting agencies, as well as Fleet CC. They may give you a run around at first (most creditors do) but don't back down! They have 30 days from receipt of your letter to begin verifying the debt. You MUST send all mail registered, return receipt. That way, they can not say they never received your correspondence.
In your letter of dispute, you should state that you do not believe this debt is yours and that you request PROOF that you agreed to accept responsibilty for the account. They must provide you with a contract, note or some other legally binding document, which bears your signature, to verify the debt. Now....let's just put two and two together here, ok? Most companies only keep paper records from the past four years readily handy. Plus, you also have in your favor that the company changed hands! The paper trail is becoming incredibly weak at this point.
Now, you need to HOLD FIRM to the timeline they have to respond. If they fail to respond within the alloted 30 days, you can be nice and send them a follow up letter which reminds them of their responsibility. Or, you can push the reporting agencies to delet the item based on the creditor not responding within the 30 days. I usually send a follwo up letter if necessary. They may try to run you through hoops, but don't be afraid!
