I have receieved several letters to collect a debt from:
National Credit Solutions, LLC
PO BOX 15779
Oklahoma City, OK 73155-0779
#800-384-0585
fax# 405-619-3631
They are sending bills to my address in Washington State. Is there a way to check if this Collection Co. is legal to collect a debt from me in the state of WA?
Thanks for any help you can provide.
