I, too was a former client of Credit Partnership. I now live in Japan. I just recently received contact information from my father in San Francisco, for Troy A. Hall. I am currently in the midst of another lawsuit, and before I decided to mail some documents to him, I decided to do a google search on him, to possibly find an email address.
I then read the news story and was directed to this website. I am so sorry that this has happened to all of you. I too, was a former client of Credit Partnership and was really close to having them settle my debts. In the middle of the process, I had one creditor threaten lawsuit, and Credit Partnership hastingly settled the account for 80% of the value. I was very close to settling another account and hopefully close to settling my last account with credit partnership.
While the process was ongoing, finally I decided to do the inevitable and file for bankruptcy. I felt that Troy A. Hall was very helpful in aiding me with the process. I filed for bankruptcy in the 2004.
I now have a battle with another unsettled debt with a school loan company (A debt which can't be settled by Credit Partnership nor for filing for bankruptcy.) I was wondering as consumers and debtors what are are options to aiding us in our plight against large credit companies? I liked Credit Partnership's former approah which seemed proactive versus passive in aiding us get out of our debt toward settlement. Now, we don't have other options, except for other agencies which, consolidate your debt, then you pay them back over time. What about other companies, such as banks and loan companies, who are very strong to fight? I am recently fighting a loan company who lost my payment, though I have proven that the payment was delivered to the company (down to proof of delivery receipts from US post office an Japan post office.) The company disputes this and won't credit my account. Lastly, the company claims they have "an investigation team," but I have proven all the documents myself and lastly, the company now wants me to prove hard evidence that the payment was endorsed by them, in order to clear it to my account! This last task is virtually impossible since the money order originated from Japan (or painstainingly slow.) Any suggestions on who I could turn to now?
