West Asset Mgmt-What debtors think and how you should deal with them

You beat me to it

No...he deleted it because you're a Troll! Why not go to the InsideARM if you want to vent?

let's delete some more shall we?sorry nascar,but the troll is bye-bye.

Address it to the CEO, All Officers, Management and Staff,

Advise them to either comply with your request for accurate, and complete VALIDATION of the 'alledged debt" in accordance with all FEDERAL AND STATE LAWS as well as the fdcpa, or you intend to sue not only the company, but each individual in authority at the company and hold the company and each individual both corporately and individuallly liable for continued harassment and inflicting mental and emotional distress.

Hey this has worked for me ! Sometimes you only get their attention by threating to get into their "personal back pockets"

Call Dean Malone, Attorney, Dallas, Texas. He will most likely get you a settlement. Strictly consignment. West Asset harrased me for years over a false debt. They had to pay dearly. Dean Malone is very familiar with West Asset. Also, reference West Asset at Ripoff Report.com

This collection company like many others fails to do a simple check of who they are actually calling. Over the last several years I have received many hundreds of calls for others' debts not my own. Their people locating software must be really lame. It seems to search for all phone numbers associated with the address of a debtor. This provides a lot of false hits on apartments like mine. My name/number starts with an "A" and must sort to the top of the list. lame

Well, I can top it all by telling you that my x-husband got a call from them today, saying my brother had died, and they wanted to know who was taking care of his estate??? Talk about a bad 15 minutes, before I could find out that my brother is alive and well. Who ever this West Ass ~ I mean Asset Management is, they need to stop, before they hurt someone.

They called saying my daughter owed them money....she is barely 15! I tried calling them & they wanted my name & when I refused they said they could not discuss anything with me until I gave them my first name...sounds pretty fishy, then they will just start saying that I owe them money....I don't even know how they got my phone number...it's unlisted & unpublished.

They usually call neighbors, relatives and friends to look for you. Also while your number may be unlisted/unpublished, when you open a credit card and such, if you put your phone number on your application, it in turn goes on your credit report.

As far as the debt goes they talked to you on the phone so now they have 5 days to send something in writing. When you get that, you have 30 days to dispute the debt. You can send a debt validation letter, you could also send a cease and desist letter telling them she is only 15 and to not call or send anything in writing ever again.

It is your choice, maby someone has more insight on this.

Just got a call from West Asset Management "Concerning" my deceased father. Dad has been gone for 12 years. Why in the world would these people be contacting me now???

Send them a copy of the death certificate an dinform them that after 12 years the estate has been settled.

because they are a horrible bottomfeeder.send them a C&D letter.send it certified mail return receipt.

God Bless you and thank you for your help. Have an awesome spring and summer!!!

These guys are SO-ANNOYING! Persistent to say the absolute least. They have been calling for my number for years, at least 4 or 5 times a day. I work from home, at my computer, so I decided to just answer this call from my seat at my computer, as a fax! I know that there isn't a human being on the other end but I just laugh when I think about that computer trying to figure out what to do to that fax sound! Let the games continue West Asset Management!

They are bad, they call me about 3-4 times a day too!! I just don't answer....

This company keeps calling me every other day or so about a collection they said they took over from another collection agency (which I've heard is causing the WA State Department of Health and Social Services problems), which I've never received any calls or mail from. They are trying to collect a bill covered by WA DSHS from October of 2007!!!! I never heard a thing about this in 2008 but this company started calling me the first of the year! DSHS said they would pay the bill but the original provider billed them wrong and until they bill appropriately, they won't get a dime. I was told this was not my problem but I needed to get certain facts from West Asset to provide DSHS. They would not give me the needed information and the people were just smart-asses and uncooperative. It does no good to call them, I can't even get a supervisor. They have been told what the problem is but won't give me the provider's information so DSHS can handle this or I can contact them directly. I finally called our local Attorney General's office and they told me to submit a formal letter (certified mail) detailing what needs to be done and to leave me alone. I'm to include that I've ccd the office and DSHS in Olympia. But at the end of the day, no business is required to obey the Attorney General's office. I swear, we all should be able to sue these companies for all the time, stress and financial crap they are putting innocent people through!!!!!!
