Americas top ten worst collection agencies

Oh no, this is an old post revived, before anyone gets mad at me, I didn't realize until AFTER I posted, whoops, sorry.

Wish those laws in TX applied in PA & VA.... Wolpoff& Abramson/Great Seneca Financial is actually the worst! It took my husband & I 3 years to get them to remove an identity theft account. That is even after we sent multiple copies of the police reports proving that he did not live in VA at the time of the incident!

Sorry to add to the gravedig, but I'm proud that my CA isn't on that list.

THE WORST ONE IS JOHN P FRYE, LAW OFFICES. THESE PEOPLE ARE THE LOWEST OF LOW. TOTAL SCUM

Oh really? So, what did you say the name of your CA is?

My best friend, a man, had a tearful panic attack because of the stress brought on by this company. He was laid off of two of his three jobs (security), and fell behind. It has gotten so that he can no longer use his phone. I and others are organizing a class action suit and youtube documentary; you would not BELIEVE the laws this "lawyer" and his sister company, Atlantic Credit & Finance, break. I can't IMAGINE what they're thinking.
I went into debt due to illness brought on by disabilities suffered during the war. I lost my apartment, and eventually my job. I was homeless for two weeks. I'm now working through my illness with the VA, and going to school to retrain for a job I can actually do with my physical limitations. I'm constantly on the verge of getting kicked out of my present living situation because of their calls, and then they'll never get their money! So, their behavior is just... idiotic, really! They are shooting themselves in the foot!
I had enough. I have NO money, but went to talk to a lawyer. The constant phone calls, the attempts to get me to borrow money from my family, the harassing language, the calls as early as 6:58am, and as late as 10:20pm, the failure to answer a request for validation of debt letter, and the refusal to stop calling this house and harassing people who aren't even involved; all are going to cost the company MORE money than my debt was even WORTH! Soooo..., how stupid can you be? According to my lawyer, Frye could lose his license over this kind of stuff! Are they nuts or something?
I'm getting a suit together in California, but there are people in so many other states being harassed by these guys. My friend, also a vet, does student films (doing documentaries about vets after the war). We're putting a documentary together for youtube to inform people and the public about what is going on with these guys. They're literally affecting the mental and physical health of hardworking people who have just fallen on hard times.
If you're in California, or you're in another state and want start your own class action suit, please visit melOIFvet75 on you tube, and lv a msg!

You need to get an attorney to defend you as an individual. A class action lawsuit will only put money into the pockets of the attorneys. It amazes me that the laws allow class action suits as the people who are hurt receive almost nothing while the attorneys make a fortune. This is wrong! It is so wrong that it makes me feel that the hard working people of this country have become impliments of personal gain for those who are in a fortunate situation. It is so disgusting to me that I have trouble retaining my last meal.
Send them a debt validation letter and find yourself a good attorney that specializes in FDCPA violations. Try NACA.org for a start.

But we all need to stand up for this bad treament of our Vets ... Enough is Enough .. If a class action suits get some one attention great

What if you are a resident of Texas but are in the military and stationed in a different state, do the rules apply?
