Hey Shirley,
Add Academy Collection Services to your list. If you haven't dealt with them you don't know but if you have you would definitely agree. The only one on your list I have dealt with is Arrow luckily. |

Hi Sue, this is an actual REAL list, not one that I made up. I haven't dealt with any of them myself. The one that I would think would be the worst to deal with, isn't even on here! shirley

I love Bud Hibbs website.
Hey Shirley - ironically enough, I FINALLY got a copy of my Equifax report (after 40 minutes on the phone trying to prove that I am ME) and I checked it out. NCO has some bogus hit on my account, they are trying to collect for that Cingular account! The one I am sending the nasty letter for!! I am gonna slam these guys. Ugh!! ~Mary |

While I don't dispute that others have had problems with Wolpolf & Abrahmson, my dealings with them were very polite, businesslike and over quickly.

Wolpoff sued me for 500 dollars. Glad I live in Texas.

beatlemyn02,
I'd be interested in knowing your story, because I'm about to take a couple of junk debt buyers to court. LVNV for one. I believe that if a person honestly owes a debt to a company, and is contacted by a 3rd party collector, one should try to settle. --But-- as to "junk debt" buyers (ie., debt purchasers) no one morally, nor legally owes them anything. You will not help your credit rating by paying them, in fact it could be made worse. You are very right. In Texas we have various laws which idiot debt collectors in other parts of the country are probably unaware of. In Texas, even if they somehow get a judgment against you: You have a $30,000 personal asset exemption ($60,000 family). This especially effective if you are unemployed or self employed. You could be considered "judgment proof". They cannot take your house or car (except if this is what the money was owed on). They have 30 days to answer a request for validation. And many others, which also applies to original creditors (not just 3rd party collectors). In short, if Texas residents demand their rights, collectors stand to get next to nothing to satisfy judgments. |
