Search the company feedback on the BBB and with your state attorney general office.

Do you have to give your checking account for payment purpose? Many companies do debits that often turn disputed. Besides, your checking account is not safe if it's fallen at the wrong place.
It will be better to work out other payment arrangements with URS.

URS is a pretty ok company. They are one of the leading collections agency in Houston.
You are protected under the fdcpa when making payments by check or post dated checks. If they deposited it for more than or any sooner than the agreed upon terms you have grounds for legal movement against them.
I don't encourage or discourgage from giving cking information to collections agencies based on the fact that there are companies who are honest and those who are dishonest.
Checking account information is never safe if it's giving information to a collection agency or writting a check at the grocery store.

The first CA I ever worked with was URS. I began making payments via mail after they initially wanted payments made via ACH. I refused to allow that and since we began in July 05, RAB purchased the debt from them. I've continued mailing payments every month.
I never had any problems with URS but I would suggest you mail your payments as opposed to allowing them access to your bank accounts or debit/credit cards.
