This is the last addition to my previous 2 entries. Today I was expecting a call, leapt up and answered without looking at caller id, it was a recording saying "please stay on the line for an important message" then the collections agent (again a foreign guy that I couldn't hardly understand), said something, I said you have an important message? He said he wanted to set up a payment of last month's and this month's payment which isn't due yet. He also told me it isn't his job to extract a payment from me, he is only worried about my credit report reporting 30 days late, yeah right! Then why ask me for $?

Anyways he said he could do a partial payment and not report me. Last few people told me different a partial wouldn't work. I told him I don't know who to trust. He said he would ask his supervisor for permission to take partial pay. (The battery went dead on phone so I hung it back up, he hasn't called back) I told him I start a new job tomorrow, (which is true) and when I get situated I'll send you something. I told him I have about $1.50 upstairs, but that isn't worth sending, you'll just have to wait. He again said send us something a partial pay at least. I swear these people are deaf, not extracting a payment? yeah right.

#2Consumer Suggestion

Tue, November 16, 2004

Hello Wendy. After reading your reports I felt that you may like to hear about how I too have been in your shoes (just a few months ago) and I persisted and continued to stick to my guns, and victory was mine.

I want you to know that this company will go to any length to intimidate, lie, and harass you. I truly think they think that people get so tired of their B.S. and eventually will do anything to get them off their backs.

Also never ever agree to a pay by phone in order to get them to back off. That itself is a whole other issue. I can go on and on. My problem with them was not one issue but many issues. If you would like to read more of my issues then check out my own reports I submitted at this sight. They were written back over this summer(2004) and you should be able to find them by looking under my address of Chatsworth, GA.

Let me know if I can offer any suggestions. Keep fighting the fight girl!
