Out of the blue, a few days ago, I received a phone call from a collection agency saying I owed a debt from my old partner and that I was still the primary on our business card. I was told I owed $6245.
In 2002, I started a concrete business with a partner. We opened a business credit card each having our own names and numbers. They did our credit checks and gave us different limits.
I sold the business to my partner in June 2005. The credit cards were paid and a signed contract was put together stating my partner was the sole owner. I called the credit company and closed my card and said to take me off all accounts.
Now over four years later their saying he had stopped making payments in Dec. 2008 and that they couldn't get ahold of him so they tracked me down in another state and said I was responsible.
the collection agency has sent my name to the credit borough and this has dropped my score.
What should I do? Please help......Thanks
