Is it worth fighting debt collectors?

>Cancelled a gym membership in Dec 2016
>Gym's billing company bills me for Jan 2017 (nothing in the contract I signed said I would need to pay next months fees if I cancelled)
>Disputed transaction with my bank and got it reversed
>2 months later I'm getting called by debt collectors telling me I owe the gym fee plus a shit load of late fees

Should I just pay them to get them to leave me alone? If not how would I go about fighting this?

I paid off old fees from Comcast and had it turned back on for Xfinity Internet, yet I still had debt collectors calling about the old fees I've already paid for. It was the same fat nigger sounding woman. I just starting asking for her number and to drop some nudes in my DM. She hung up and hasn't called since.

That's funny but you ended up paying the fees.

The billing company had no contractual right to bill me for January which is why I disputed the transaction. My question it if it's worth just paying the fees or fighting it in some way.

Just ignore it. It's a gym membership. It's not like it's a defaulted credit card or apartment eviction. Nobody that looks at your credit report is going to give a shit about it.

Ignore it. If they call just say you have no idea who they are asking for, shit like that to stop their calls.eventually they will give up. I had like 4000$ in credit card debt and they stopped after 5 years of constant contact to me. Yes my credit sucks.

Very true. CC companies don't give a shit if you're late for cable or utilities.
>>1819352
Always pay with a credit card. They'll fight it and dispute it for you.
>>
>>1819355
And dinged your credit report with unresolved disputes. Have fun not checking it for 39 years and owing thousands dumbass

Aside from your score and any place you go to get a loan...

I apparently had an 80 dollar gas bill 10 uears in default and got turned down for a home loan with over 700 credit score. Got it handled and off my report. Moved in 1 month latter

File a police report that they're making threatening phone calls. I can't imagine your gym is using a high-profile debt collection service, so there's a good chance they get a call from a cop. That'll spook 'em.
