Legal Question in Credit and Debt Law in Texas

Paying a debt

I made a over the phone agreement with a collection company. Now the people they worked for said I still owed them more money. On my last payment I wrote this payment was paid in full. Will this stand up in a court as a debt taking care of? Now I paid the money to the collection company in full as I agreed to them. the amout owed nearly 1000.00 amount paid 550.00. Thank You
