Camco ripoff easy to fool.. be nice but vague Rockford Illinois
OK.....Thank goodness I paused and THOUGHT first........ and found YOU on Google. Camco wanted $800 plus NOW or it would be $1400. plus tomorrow.............. OR $2800. plus next week. RED FLAG...IF I owe the $ why would they take less????
They would take my BANK INFO.......NOW....and give me 10 days......LOL.....as if anyone would give bank acount info over the phone to an unknown caller....OK some of us have.
NEW IDEA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I not only didn't give them the info, I pulled an old Southern custom on them........it's called "slopping suger ALL over them" it is a simple idea......ALL you have to do is be SO nice that they will try to "HELP" you...JUST ASK......"Can you help me with the creditor's name?" "Can you help me with the dates?" "Can you help me with the account #?" "Can you help me with the original amount" " Can you give me their phone number?" "Can you tell me where they are?"........THIS can go on for WEEKS.......but only ask ONE question per call.......and call OFTEN......THAT costs them $.
Act confused, so that you have to call back.........A LOT......stupid confuses them........
NEVER give them as much as your phone#......they can call you for MUCH less than it costs them for YOU to call them.
NEVER verify ANYTHING........SS#, birthdate, Driver's license#....etc. EVEN your address..... just say.... I'll have to check that and call you back".
The LAST shot......... that will end it all.............. is to request a "validation report" of the debt. They MUST prove (by law) that you owe the debt......AND that they have the right to collect. But IF you have the time.......cost them time and $. out of pocket ...........NEXT is names to ask for...Chris Lorenzo 1-877-298-0845, Ex.1608... Sean Johnson, her boss, so they say..........have fun with them.....I have the time and the bitterness to keep calling .
YOU can call, late at night when no one is there.....the call still rings thru and costs them.....:) leave a message about your account , if you have one, just no call-back #.....say that you will call again.......and DO call again.
OTHER names to ask for:
Jeffery Garrington......Compliance officer.........HE sees to it that they follow the LAW........Ha HA.....
Other managment PSNL you MIGHT wish to speak to are:
Ms. Sue Faber......Administration
Mrs. Sara Fredrick
Mr. Eric Woldorf President
Ms. Reese Waugh Ex VP/COO
above info per Chicago BBB as of 10/14/2004 avalible at www.chicago.bbb.org
I may have more anger and bitterness about being (almost) screwed, AND I may have more TIME than many of you, but we can ALL dial 1-877-298-0845.....AND punch redial if they DON'T pick up..... OR leave a message......ANY message.......THAT is what the # is there for.........so THEY say.......
Plesant revenge......don't for get to demand proof ( sweetly) and call often to check on your debt.
OFTEN I think of myself as an angry MOTHER helping her children.......they won't let me include my E-Mail.....
I must say, however, IF you are in debt, try to get out with honor..IF you DO owe $ attempt to pay it, or a part of it, as much as you can......debts paid make you feel So CLEAN..........it is a wonderful feeling, knowing that you are finished, you did it right, and there is NO ONE who can pull the CAMCO crap on you EVER again. THAT would be the Mother in me.........NOT the bitter, vengeful, wraith out to stop CAMCO.
Best to all.

camco lives forever, even if you do pay these bottom feeders - the original debtor sees none of the money

yikes mark, you do have some spare time on your hands. but it is good to learn a different tactic for dealing with our pals at camco. voice mail seems to be my best tactic so far. yep i can hardly wait to hear ikea charles monday morning. her soothing voice reminding me its urgent that i contact camco. wonder how many more weeks/months she'll call?
i hope everyone here files a complaint with the ftc too.
mark you're also right about paying off debt. i did mess up 15-20 years ago. actually, even if you do pay these bottom feeders - the original debtor sees none of the money. so i bought some stock in citicorp instead.
