Legal Question in Credit and Debt Law in Illinois

A hold was put on my checking account today by collections. This was from a Nicor bill from 2001. This hold on my account has caused big problems for me and my five month old daughter. I cannot get money to feed my daughter or get gas to get to work. Is this legal for a collection company to do?
