You have a possible lawsuit under the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act and it Michigan counter-part. If you feel that the continued collection practices are harassing and causing you stress then you may be able to sue. The statutes that you can sue under give you attorney fees as well so you may not even have to pay anything out of your own pocket, except some minor Court costs, which you would get back if you win.
