So, it seems they are not yet fixed on the settlement offers before putting it to the consumers. One more example of an unprofessional business approach!

I called this morning to make payment arrangements, I requested for a spanish speaking representative. The guy who I spoke with was very disrespectful. I called back a second time to speak to a different representative, the person who answered my call put me on hold and had him answer my call once more. I was told by this guy that my voice had changed and hung up on me. Any advice?

To funny,

I have sent them 2 DV letters and i have received 2 settlement opportunity letters from them. They will not send a proof info to say the account is mine. Also they are all over my credit report for the same bill. I guess i have one more DV letter to send. Then i will have to read more to see what to do next. But i would not make payment arrangements with them until they can prove in writing what you owe and why you owe that much. There just trying to get your money.

The only advice I have it to call back, or write a letter and say you are hard of hearing (or something like that) and can't use a telephone ... unfortunately they can behave whichever way they want to. Is it right? NO. But it is what it is.

I guess you could go thru the TDD operator and type it in, tht way a computer generated voice would be talking to them. That actually would be funny as he!!.

I think you have to pay a fee to have TDD access, at least you used to.

Call them collect. After all, a DC cannot cause the consumer to incur any costs in association with collecting a debt. And if they can't handle that type of call they are in violation of the ADA, aren't they?
