Ok check it out im an ex-employee of allied, and am here to confirm your suspissions about allied data corporation. Now im not trying to toot my own horn but i was a collector not only at allied but other agencies as well from ,chicago to houston who never used abusive practices to collect money regardless of what was instructed to me to do in order to get the job done. I always treated consunmers with a certain level of professional courtesy. Cause guess what i have delinquent debt myself as does 99% of the collectors attempmting to collect. So treating people as i would like to be treated was something i stood by which made me succesfull in the business. Now Allied on the other hand is a lets just say less than prestigous collection agency. 1st of all there employees are not happy so that is portryaed in the phone calls to consumers. See when you have beef with your employer it makes you a little agitated with your job and lets just say that your not giving them 100% so it shows in the approach you take with the consumers. You develop this i dont give a crap attiude and innocent people catch the brunt of your displeasure. As if that werent bad enough your personal information is less than safe. Ive had instances where consumers call in because there information has been replicated without their permission. You know what im saying! Look people when dealing with allied prepare yourself for ignorance, foul language, unprofessionalism in its finest, flat out migraine!!!!!!!!! Not everyone there is a bad guy i worked there a little over a year and am surprised i stayed there that long. Never expect to speak to the same person 2 months after making an arrangement to pay off a bill the turnover rate is astronomical like none ive ever seen at any other company ive worked for. So what does that say about the people you intrust your information to????????? In closing here are a few simple little things that might make your allied data corp expirience a little lless painful 1. always use MONEY ORDERS or WESTERN UNION (your personal info doesnt get compromised that way) 2.Stay on your guard some things arent always what they seem 3.NO LEGAL ACTION WILL BE TAKEN AGAINST YOU!!!!!!!!(not the truth) (HORRIBLE TACTIC) 4. Anything deemed harrasing by you IS!!!!!!!!!(DOCUMENT EACH OCCURANCE) 5.Last but not least keep lagre bottle of ADVIL, TYLENOL, MOTRIN whatever works

I know what you mean. I used to sell avon and did not make a profit. It was a waste of my time and fuel
