Tell us has your experience with this business or person been good? What's this?
RPM continues to call me, though I am the wrong person. That has been verified by the last 4 in the Social Security number. When making calls back to the company they state that my phone number is not in their system. They have to be searching phone directories and calling anything close to the area where they might find the individual they are searching for.

I have reported to Salt River Project, Tempe, AZ (the company that has an account with them) and verified the individual's name and that they have an account with RPM. The individual I spoke with in collections stated they would email RPM to stop contacting me at my number. I am not the individual that they want.

The contact with Salt River Project was done on May 14, 2009. Yesterday (May 31, 2009) I received another call from RPM. I will contactd SRP again today and get a letter off to the Attorney General for the state of Washington and copy the Attorney General and Salt River Project about the actions of RPM. I believe they are violating government regulations about collections and need to be stopped.

...you're the idiot! It's hard for someone like me--a DECENT person--to even imagine how you can sleep at night. You sound like such a fool, so "holier than thou"--ever walk a mile in someone else's shoes, jerk? Keep your "good money" that you get from haranguing people who, for one reason or another, cannot pay their so-called debts --which, by the way, are (for the most part) no longer their debts: once the contracts get sold to your company, for 1 on each HUNDRED DOLLARS, the contract is null and void, especially with credit card contracts. As a series of continuing offers to contract, credit cards are non-transferrable--and you third party debt collectors know it! So keep up your shameless scumbag ways, tell yourself you're doing good in the world, and just remember that karma is a b*tch, my friend.

First of all im sure you were probaly rude and thats why your # was not taken out of the system. 2nd of all it takes about 24 hours to get your # out of the system so thats probally why you got a call back. Bob says: "They have to be searching phone directories and calling anything close to the area where they might find the individual they are searching for" its called skip tracing it is how we have to find these scumbags who go and change there # because they are such cowards that they cant even talk about the debt or face the fact that they owe it. its funny cause everybody thinks that debt collectors are some people that have nothing better to do the truth is it is a job and we get paid good money and all these pepople say debt collectprs are pieces of S**T and we are so rude you try calling people that just refuse to pay and you get 6 calls back to back of people who cuss you out and tell yyou ti f**k your mother and say stufff like " well they shouldnt have given me the card in the first place" thats pretty much stealing if you think about it they go and buy a buncha stuff and then dont pay for it they should be arrested and put in jail and sued !!! there is some exceptions however some times people jus get the short end of the stick and thats alright cause that happens to the best of us!! but these people who are working or on some kind of goverment income need to pay they say stuff like " i only get 700.00 a month and my rent is 900.00 well how about you live within your means and get a cheaper apartment so you can pay off the BILLS THAT YOU OWE!!!!!!!

Write the company and request that they stop contacting you by phone. Send it certified.

I contacted RPM this morning and they now have my phone number in their system. They must have added it after the contact from Salt River Project about having the wrong person. My number must have come up in the reference to that person. I wonder if the companies that hire RPM realize how this effects their reputation through who they deal with and the illegal actions they use for collections. RPM phone number I used was 866-367-1873.
