Please be careful if doing business with Brent Wright of Bayley Blake & Lex out of Plano, TX.  We had accounts placed with them and they have failed to remit payments since January 31, 2013.  Please contact me if you would like further information and I will be more than happy to discuss and will even put you in touch with his former co-workers as well as an attorney who also had issues receiving money he was due from Mr. Wright.  We have also filed a complaint against Mr. Wright and Bayley Blake & Lex with the OAG as well as the SOS in Texas for his failure to be bonded/licensed.

REBUTTAL
With regard to the accusations made by Trey C**** of Verde Financial Group against Brent Wright and my company Bayley, Blake and Lex, there is always more to the story.

When Mr. C**** placed his portfolio with my company he explained to me that the accounts were fresh and in statutes, only worked by one other agency that closed the accounts and sent them back to him after several months indicating they wouldnt be interested in working them, if I recall correctly he stated it was under their average balance threshold so Mr. C**** told me he shelved the accounts for many months.

We accepted the assignment of 88 accounts all small balance and soon began to discover a common trend from talking to debtors that they had been contacted from numerous agencies (anywhere from 5 to 8 agencies) and all of the right party contacts we did speak with accept one were flat refusals or resulted in hang ups. One debtor paid and Mr. C****s share is $167.44 which was due on February 11th, 2013, we mailed the check February 7, 2013.

On March 1, 2013 Mr. C**** contacted me for a status update, we granted him online access to review his accounts. On March 6th, 2013 he emailed me after his review and inquires about the remittance for the January 31st payment and I advised him it had been mailed. He claims he never received it and to his credit after checking with my bank it never cleared (its likely laying on his desk somewhere).

On March 11th 2013 after returning from a trip, I replied and advised him I would reissue the check on our next check run, March 14th, 2013 I began receiving threatening emails and messages from Mr. C**** accusing me of stealing his money and he was going to report this to the Office Attorney General then proceeded to call a former employee who abandoned his job after his last payday (due to a methamphetamine addiction Im told and it was also discovered that the former employee is a convicted felon) and proceeded to discuss my companys business with him, a clear breach of contract at that point for nondisclosure.

Regarding the Attorney he claims had issues; neither my company nor I had any type of agreement with this attorney. My client hired him to sue the debtor and after judgment, the attorney sat on the account for two years without collecting it. My client turned it over to us and when we collected it wanted us to pay the attorney fee owed by the client out of their share.

The attorney wanted his money the day we got paid however we made him wait until the following month as laid out in the contract with the actual client.

Regarding my required bond with the Sectary of State, Mr. C**** is correct. Thank you Mr. C**** for bringing it to my attention, as it had expired. A copy of the renewal has been mailed to them.

I am currently discussing this with my attorney and will likely refund the payment to the debtor because I was out of compliance during the period in which I collected it and the state it was collected in. Mr. C**** and Verde Financial Group will likely be sued for breach of contract, defamation of character and slander.

If anybody has any questions or concerns accept Mr. C**** or Verde Financial Group, feel free to contact me 972-544-7400 or brent.wright@bblrecovery.com, Mr. C**** you will receive a notice from my attorney.

ALL OF THIS BECAUSE YOU LOST A CHECK FOR $167.44, WOW!!
