My niece somehow got me to sign papers under false pretenses to get $12,000 for college. She used me as a cosigner, and now she is not paying her bill, and I am being called to pay her bill. What can I do about this? Should I take her to court?

For the past week or so, I have been receiving non-stop calls from a collector at work, harassing me and my coworkers from about 9 or 10 in the morning till 4pm, even when I'm not at work. My blood pressure has gone up, and I'm worried he might make me lose my job. My boss tried to talk to him, but he still doesn't listen and continues to call. I made a time and date to pay him, but it also didn't help; he continues to call along with his boss. He is driving me crazy, and I also have a bad heart and don't want to keep arguing with him on my job. Despite what I say and ask him to not call me at work, he still does, about 10 to 15 calls in 5 to 10 minutes. What can I do?

I recently moved to Canton, NC, and hired movers who damaged my well pump while maneuvering their truck. The pump was sent to the bottom of the well, requiring two days to retrieve and repair, costing $180. However, the pump failed two days later due to the initial damage, necessitating a replacement pump costing $1300. The moving company accused me of duplicating work orders and offered to pay only $180 for the first visit. What can I do?

After an accident, my insurance paid off the principal balance of my loan, which was current at the time. However, the company later demanded an additional $6,000, which was charged off and reported as $5,000 more on my credit report. The account is listed as a charge-off with a balance of $6,229.00, and the credit bureau states that I dispute this. The same loan is now showing on Equifax for $12,092.00. What should I do about this false information reported to the credit bureaus?
