I got a letter in the mail from Professional Account Management saying that I have a "debt" due. I do not owe a debt as I have payed FasTrak multiple times already. I believe that this is a scam or harassment to get me to pay again. I already paid. I know what I have done. I've paid over x4 the amount originally due. This is harassment.Business response

The companys business hours are 8 AM to 5 PM central standard time. I accidentally called prior to them opening and received the message stating that they have higher than normal call volume which made no sense to me as the business was closed now that business hours are open. I have called three times to handle some matters and have been left on hold with no answer for over an hour each time. Im not too sure whats going on, but I do need someone from the company to reach out to me so I can handle this debt.Business response
