i have 1-800-587-5943 on my file for a contact number...i just noticed that $80 was withdrawn from my checking account to Superior Asset Management for T-Mobile (an account that was paid off a LONG time ago.) out of concern i contacted the office and some rude idiot answered and was merely a paralegal who has no answers for anything...must be nice to have a job with no responsibilities considering this business is a crock! good luck getting through to anyone with answers there

After repeated requests to speak to a supervisior, I finally spoke to a Ms. Dunn and got nowhere about an employee calling me names. I contacted the FCC (Federal Communications Commision) and was forwarded to the FTC (Federal Trade Commision).

The FTC rep said that I needed to send SAM (Superior Asset Management) a Cease Communications Letter. They informed me that I would be contacted one more time by SAM to acknowledge the letter.

I found a sample letter.

Additional Information for what it may be worth.

I contacted SAM again for an address to send the Cease Communication Letter. I was given the following:

Superior Asset Management
PO Box 468089
Atlanta, GA 31146

For Registered Mail: (physical address required)

Superior Asset Management
1000 Abernathy Road, Building 400, Suite 165
Atlanta, GA 30328

The phone number I used was the number that they used contacting myself: 800-587-5714

This information was good as of August 30, 2007.

Christinaref · Posted: Fri Sep 07, 2007 9:52 am Subject: Trying to help my mom

My mother has been getting weekly calls from someone named Pat Barns at 1-800-895-2989 insisting that my father (who passed away in '03) has an outstanding T-1 Mobile bill. My father never worked with T-1 Mobile.

We have nothing in writing from them, but they keep saying that they will turn this over to a collection agency if she doesn't call to 'settle' the charge.

Is this a farce? Why is there no paper trail? What can my mother do to make this 'go away'? Should she contact the police, the BBB or some other agency? (she has just ordered her credit report to see if there is anything on her credit; I'm not sure if there could be anything on my father's credit report if he is no longer alive).

How do I get them to stop leaving the call Pat Barnes message on my machine every day asking for Manuel somebody who doesn't even have this number?! It's been going on for 2 years and I've called and asked them to remove my number several times but it obviously doesn't work.

I filed bankuptcy and Superior Asset Management refuse to accept that it was granted and now say they never receive any letter or court paper that their address change.Now refuse to give me the correct one.

Superior asset management operates under SEVERAL names, LandsGate Credit, Superior Asset Management, Bay Area Credit and MANY More. I have learned that they sell accounts to each other, therefor keeping the account and reporting the same debt multiple times on ones cedit. AND for differnt amount, one Major credit compnay i spoke with stated that they can alter the amount owed to show collection fees. how is this legal?! I owed sprint 65 dollars and now because of SAM i show 4 things on my credit one for the origional 65, one for 165, and two for 235 dollars, all for the same debt of 65. what do i do?

rochelle6499 · Posted: Tue Oct 02, 2007 9:51 pm Subject: t-mobile screwed me

okay so superior asset managment has taken control of a debt that i had with t-mobile. It all started back in the very begining of 2004 when my army unit was mobilized to go overseas for the war. before we left i looked into getting a cellphone to communicate back home. I called t-mobile and asked them about their service and told them i was looking for a telephone plan because i was going over seas. the person i spoke to informed me that as a mobile to mobile customer, i could make calls to any t-mobile cell phone and they would be free. this was exactly what i was looking for so i signed up and got my phones. i shipped to kuwait in feb. 04. began using the phone as soon as i got it. the entire time i was overseas i used the phone daily, my battle buddies used it to call home, it was great. i paid my bill on time every month with no problems even if i went way over my mins. well i came home from my deployment and like 2 months later got a bill from t-mobile for $11,136.36 for international roaming for the entire time i was gone!!! now my dispute is that i had NO idea that i was roaming because i was calling mobile to mobile, and that i wasnt billed for roaming until after i came home from deployment. the roaming should have shown up on my bill every month that i was using the phone, and that first month that i got a thousand dollar bill, i woulda realized they lied and said hell no and got rid of the phone. t-mobile was no help with the issue, they wouldnt take responsibilty for misinforming me, and said they wanted their money in a month or it was going for collections, which is how it has now gone to SAM. it is now on my credit report and i was turned down for a car loan because of it. i want to know what my rights are and how to get them to take it off my credit and not fault me for the charges. any idot would have gotten that first months international roaming bill and said to hell with this. so why is it my fault that they didnt bill me correctly for the entire time i was gone. this was the first cellphone i ever had and didnt really know much about them, i really feel like i have been wronged and are seriously screwing me over. please lend any advice you got.

This is more than a span caller (800-587-5714). It called into my pre-paid cell phone. I think this company owes me more than 10 dollars now because every recording cost me 1 minute air-time. I reserve the right to bill it, and I am sure I can find who it is. What's better, I added my phone numbers to national donot-call list (donotcall.gov).

I've been fighting with T-Mobile & SAM for years.
I am tired of dealing with the representatives
@ 1-800-895-2989. They FLAT OUT LIE. They have the combined IQ of a melting ice cube. I'm requesting T-Mobile to recall this acct. and hopefully straighten it out with them. It is difficult to have a cranium involved, intelligent conversation with them too.
GOOD LUCK

Well, I paid their "settlement" amount, lets see if it "settles" the debt. if it does, good, im done. If not, I have a "trick" up my "sleeve" for them. Twisted Evil

Make sure they send you written confirmation that the debt has been settled. Check your credit reports next month to make sure the account shows as a paid/settled collection. If not, dispute it with the credit bureaus.

Guest · Posted: Mon Dec 31, 2007 10:00 am Subject:

Yes, I am waiting for the written confirmation they said they would send. She said 10 BUSINESS days, so it should be here the end of this week.

the settlement amount was the first 2 months of interest charges and service fees, and the amount of the original debt (something like 10 cents) It kind of chaps my a** that I had to pay almost 200 bucks for an over site on my payoff amount because the CC company didnt have the courtesy to call me, but im glad to be done with it. Evil or Very Mad

Just another reason to NOT deal with any credit cards. if there is any way they can burn you legally, or in a legal "grey area" they can and will do it. No more for me, if I cant buy it with cash or a loan (car, truck, etc) then I don't need it.
