Krol-knight 1nswQ? 71 Sherwood Circle Enola, PA 17025 1. Plaintiff, NCO FINANCIAL SYSTEMS ASSG OD BANK OF AMERICA, (hereinafter "Plaintiff' is a Pennsyvania corpration with a principal place of business located at 507 Prudential Road, Horsham, PA 19044 True 2. The Defendant Annie A. Krol-knight (hereinafter "Defendant") is an adult individual residing at 71 Sherwood Circle, Enola, PA 17025 True 3. At all relevant times herein, Plaintiff was engaged in the business of debt purchase and collection. Can only assume true 4. Defendant applied for and received a credit card issued by BANK OF AMERICA with the account number 4800113083835558. Denied Card initially applied for was through Bank of America with an entirely different account number. 5. The within account was sold by BANK OF AMERICA to NCO FINANCIAL SYSTEMS, INC for valuable consideration and all rights under said accounts were assigned to NCO FINANCAL SYSTEMS, INC. Can only assume this is true This does raise some doubt 6. Use of the BANK OF AMERICA credit card was subject to the terms of the Cardmember Agreement, a copy of which was sent to the defendant along with the credit card. Denied Original card was under contract with Bank of America for a different account number, validity of above stated account is in question - perhaps other peoples balances were combined into this account 7. Defendant used the BASNK OF AMERICA credit card account number 4800113083835558, for purchases, cash advances and/or balance transfers. Denied Again, contract was under another account number, ending in 3884 8. The Defendant was mailed account statements relative to the Defendant's use of the subject credit card. Denied Have not received any statements in a long period of time 9. The Defendant defaulted under the terms of the Agreement by failing and refusing to make monthly payments on the account as they became due. True in part, false in par Have made payments for quite some time but then disabilities became a factor and income was reduced 10. The account became delinquent on February 28, 2007. Denied Records indicated that payments may have been paid later than that 11. The amount due and owing was $ 6,141.34 at the time it was received by Plaintiff. Denied My records reflect a balance was much lower that stated amount by approximately 3,228.50 for another account number 12. Pursuant to the account agreement, any unpaid balance accrues interest at the rate of 32.24 Denied Interest rate seems highly exaggerated 13. The total amount due and owing the Plaintiff including interest is $ 10,689.91. Denied Since account switched hands a few times am not sure of accounting accuracy This is also in another case as marital debt 14. Pursuant to the terms of the Agreement, Defendant is liable to the Plaintiff for court costs and reasonable attorney's fees. Denied Have not been contacted by phone or in the form of statements Cannot believe a creditor would be that insensitive to harass a disabled person with limited means of income or force her to chose between shelter, food, and medications vs a credit card balance (my disabilities were not in any way intentional on my part as I was the innocent victim of MVA's) Verification The undersigned, Annie A. Krol-knight, hereby states that she is the dependant in this action and verifies that the statements made in the foregoing pleading are true and correct to the best of her knowledge, information and belief. There is a debt owed but not that large of a sum \ ? f Date: November 10, 2009 Annie A.
