if a collector reports after you’ve already paid your account is he in violation of fair credit reporting act?

I had a phone bill of $120 reported to collections. When I was advised of my debt, I paid it immediately. (I thought my bill was paid when I disconnected with this company more than 1 year ago). The collections agency then reported this bill as “paid” AFTER I had paid it. This item had not previously exsisted on my report. Is this legal?
