Riddle & Associates Unlicensed Collection Activity!! Beware if you live in Massachusettes! Ripoff! Draper Utah
I had a message on my machine after work from these people. I called them back, and found out the call was about an old medical bill for $107. I had insurance when this visit took place, so I was leary of what I was being told. While I was on the phone with them, I checked them out at the Massachusetts Division of Bank's website, and found out they are not licensed collect debts here!
I told the lady on the phone and first she tried to lie about it and say "Oh, we are licensed nationaly". Bull, I clean up people's credit at my mortgage company all the time, I know these laws better than she does. Then she just hung up on me while saying "that's an EASY way of getting out of paying your debt".
Uh, no honey. That means I am filing a complaint with my state agencies, and as of Monday morning, have already contacted the original creditor to pay the bill to the hospital directly. They assume that we are as stupid they are. I encourage any othrt Mass residents out there with similar dealings to file a complaint to the Mass Division of Banks as well. I won't rest until this company is served an official Cease and Desist from the state.

File a complaint with Utah Attorney General & Utah State Bar

I also started receiving calls from Riddle & Associates. They randomly call people they files on without verifing names against phone directories or other widely available databases in hopes of getting somebody to pay. KNOW YOUR RIGHTS UNDER THE FAIR DEBT COLLECTION ACT!! Never pay a debt you do not owe! Research uncovers Riddle & Associates have been ordered to pay millions of dollars in wrongfully collected debts back to consumers. Not just in one state, but in several. If everybody who sees this files a complaint with the governing bodies I listed below, they WILL be shut down for good. I filed a complaint with the Utah Attorney General and the Utah State Bar. Their information is below. Utah State Bar Consumer Assistance Program 645 South 200 East Salt Lake City, UT 84111 Utah Attorney General State Capitol, RM 236 Salt Lake City, UT 84114-0810 You will need Riddle & Associates information.......
