<prompt> Human: As the title says, my old apartment sent me a bill 5 months ago claiming I owe them roughly 25. I tried calling them to dispute the bill, but never got any phone calls back. Since they decided not to pursue the issue, I dropped the issue as well.Can they still put this small bill into collections and ruin my credit they havent, according to creditkarma? What can I still reasonably do if they do not return my calls? Thanks.Assistant: It can go to collections. You can dispute it get it right back out of collections if they have no proof of debt.Document your effort and attempts dates and times. Did you leave a message? Of when tried to reach them. It may help you later. Human: Damn, I forgot to write down dates and times. I guess I should keep this in mind for the future.  <response>: If you called on a cellphone the date would be on your old bill
