I am also dealiing with John Fry, they harrass me, accuse me of lying, tell methat if I really cared I would find the money to pay. I offered them what I could and they said it was just a convenience to me to pay that amount. They should be pulled off the planet. I have been the ringer with my finances due to job loss, and they don't care. Then when I try to speak up to defend myself, they accuse me of yelling. All the other agencies work with me. not this evil business.

comment on collectors.If they are aholes about it,reduce all communication to written method only.Never understood why they would harass the actual people they depend on for their commission,boggles my mind.

John P. Frye is the cousin of Chastity Frye, the escort patronized by the Virginia Tech shooter.

These bastards call me a lier every time they phone me and I wrote the actual law office of Fry complaining. I wish they would have their business license pulled . And if you look in the local paper there in Virginia, they are always hiring collectors for this agency, promising them big bucks for collecting on the debts...or harrasing the clients to the point they break down and cry. I ask them not to phone me again, to contact me by letter, they continue to call me. and I continue to hang up .

Hi Peg -

You're in Virginia? Record their calls. You don't need their consent to recording. Harassing, abusing, and driving you to tears is patently illegal under 15 USC §1692d. Build up enough recordings for a good stockpile, then send them a (cmrrr) letter stating never to call you again, and to make any future contacts in writing only.

This may get you sued. If it does, go into that courtroom with a copy of the letter you sent them and copies of your recordings of their telephone antics. The judge ain't gonna look favorably on them.

While you're at it, sue the socks off of them for FDCPA violations, under 15 USC §1692d.

I have no dealings with this law firm other than they keep calling my cell phone number looking for someone else (I do not know this person, and I do not know how they got my cell phone number). I have called their office and asked that my cell # be removed from their calling list, but they still keep calling. I'm not sure who I should contact now?

John P Frye; I have been making payments to them for over a year now. I recently pulled my credit report and it shown that my loan was written off. So if they wrote it off and I did not sign a contract with them, then how can they be trying to collect from me that I did not agree to with them

I mistakenly answered a blocked call from John P Frye's office. After a recent layoff, and a tragic death of a family member that set me behind financially, I fell behind in my HSBC account, paying only what little I could here and there. I knew that I'd received a letter from "Frye's" office, and being completely uneducated and intimated by the "lawyer" set up, I foolishly gave this lady the information to my debit card, as she stated that with me not being able to pay the full balance, a deposit on the amount was due immediately, or else.
Out of respect for authority, overwhelmed with fear and feeling trapped, I complied, and this amount is to be deducted in 2 days. She will be calling me back tomorrow to verify funds. Now that I know that I should send in the validation letter first, I do not want her having access to my account to take out the so called "deposit" amount. Is there anything legally I can tell her, that revokes any prior permission to my debit account?
Being an honest person, nieve and caught off guard, I made a mistake by even speaking with her, but with this transaction not in writing, is there any way I can back out of it? Reading the FDCPA, I cannot find anything that directly states anything I can pin on them, if I change my mind on payment. I'm 23 years old and trying to figure out the best thing to do...Lesson learned, credit cards are not the way to go in life! Any help would be simply a blessing!

I have also dealt with these guys. I had three debts, settled one, now I have two. These guys are the most unprofessional, rude, fake group of collectors I have ever heard. I told them what was up two times over the phone and I refuse to waste anymore of my time trying to resolve my debt in a completely unrealistic way. I would not give a dime of my money to this particular company, they would probably embesle it!

Is there any way to find out how much this "Law" firm paid for my debt?

I have never participated in one of these forums so I hope I'm doing this correctly.

I am Frye's latest victim. Two years later he has changed his tactics but it all boils down to the same thing. Received call from one Amy Encarmacion, threatening me with a law suite for 5K+. She caught me at a bad time due to a death in the family so I was already an emotional mess when she called and vunerable to her onslaught. She said she was on my side and was willing to work with me. However, she has been telling me one thing and my husband another, pitting us against each other. We tried to clip it in the bud by doing a conference call via cell phone but that didn't last.

As I said, I am new to this and don't know all the accronyms. Who is CACV and what is fdcpa? A federal law?

I can't find anything about the law suite against Frye, is it still going on? If not, what happened.

I'm trying to get a handle on this and feel like my hands are full of oiled snakes.

Opps. That reply was to skydiver7673, not from him/her. Like I said, I'm new at this, sorry skydiver7673.

i worked there before and they are a real law office. household bank are the bad guys and i heard that all the time. all you can do is pay it off so its off your credit. also they will negotiate with you. so dont pay the full amount

I've been paying my debt off through John P. Frye for two years now. I requested a statement, but have heard nothing. Should I start blocking my payments or are they legit?
