*Consumer Comment: BIG mistake

Capital Management Services has been harassing for a while. They call me at work everyday. Even after I asked them nicely not to. Even after I told them I can not receive personal phone calls at work. Even after I gave them my cell phone number to reach me at instead. They did call my cell but still continued to call my work. They really don't care or respect your wishes and everyone I spoke to had a attitude problem! I was offered a reasonable settlement to my alleged debt and decided to set up payments. Three payments spread out in 3 months, one payment each month, starting 2 weeks after I set everything up. Sounds great right. So I give this girl all my banking information because according to them this is the only way I can pay my settlement. I can not pay with my debit card or write them a check or checks unless I am paying off the full amount of my debt. So I gave her all my banking info, account number, routing number, etc. The next day I go to the ATM and NO MONEY!! My account was wiped out! I called the bank and they told me a company called 123regcouk took the money. I looked them up and they are some kind of website hosting, domain name providing, internet company based out of the united kingdom. I wanted to contact them but there was no phone number on there website. Okay so am I going crazy or is this a coincidence? The same day I give up my bank information to Capital Management Services my account is wiped by a UK internet company? Either this company is completely bogus or the girl who took down my banking information stole it and created some kind of fraudulent website with this UK website creator and took my money. I don't know if thats right, I don't know how to scam people, but I know this is not a coincidence!!!

Bud Says                         Consumer Comments Below

Typical of the Buffalo style CMS has an endless pool of potential employees to fill the chairs that feed their operations.

The newspaper stories extol the optimistic attitudes of owners, Jeffry Hauser and Larry Costa along with Patricia and Timothy Kraska of an ever growing business that needs only their talent and expertise to survive.

Emails and information from former employees suggest Capital Management Services is suffering from the same fate that most other Buffalo, NY debt collection organizations face in an unhappy work force, far reaching drug use and untrained, unprofessional management and work staff squeezing every minute they can out of their unprofessional collectors.

CMS, is suffering from too much growth too fast. The number of debt collectors in America is at an all time high, which has created a shortage of accounts to collect and a potential drought in areas like Buffalo, the debt collection capital of the world.

So if we use terms such as... Buffalo style collection practices to describe the actions of CMS employees and are told that drug use and criminal activity is on the increase, why should we even blink, isnt that what the business in that area is expected to do?

If CMS has anything good going for them, it is the fact that they have an experienced and respected attorney in Patricia Cipriani. Her background and reputation may be saving Hauser a bundle in legal settlements. Dont count on luck forever Jeffrey, your house is reported to be a mess and it needs a thorough cleaning.

Anyone dealing with Capital Management Services, Buffalo, NY be warned to take precautions, NEVER give a  collector your banking or credit card information, tape ALL of their conversations and contact me for referral to attorneys. As long as they are making money, they will continue to pay off their law suits.

 

CAUTION: I recommend you NEVER disclose your bank account or credit card information to a debt collector, as you risk them emptying your account, or maxing out your credit card. If you feel they are reporting on your credit bureau files in error or need assistance in dealing with them, email  the details w/your location.  Assistance and referral to a consumer legal specialist may be available.
