Has anyone dealt with Pinion North Collections. They deal with 500 Fast Cash and US Fast Cash collections. If so, were you able to get confirmation of payment from them?

I have already paid them off, have copies of my receipts for payment that I will keep for my records. But it seems like getting payment confirmation is difficult from them.

Poohbear24, if Pinion is not updating your accounts with the credit bureaus, you can send your letters to them with proof about your payments made towards this account. The CRA will contact your OC and know the actual standing of this account and update your file. You can also inquire on the same account with your OC who hired this CA for collections. They will check your payments in their system before contacting the bureaus.

Keep proof of your payments and other important documents in safe place. You might need to produce it in case there is a need to dispute on it.

Thanks John. They hadn't reported to the credit bureau's, I was fortunate to handle these before it went there. I was just having difficulty with them sending me a written confirmation of payment and closed account.

In this case, you must contact your OC and get the details of your payment made towards the account and get the update done. I assume they must have hired this collection agency to collect the debt from you. So, in any case, your account should show the actual standing and not what the collectors want.

You can also send a letter to the collection agency and force them to do the update on your accounts with your creditors. Give some legal importance in the letter and send it through certified mail with return receipt requested. No collection agency is allowed to hurt your file by doing such activities.

No payment confirmation - but auto withdrawals after previous payment and beyond debt amount without authorization yes...

There were previous payment arrangements that were modified but they did not hold to the arrangement and added additional charge.

Yimini, if I had been in your place, I would have definitely closed my checking account to prevent the auto debits. Besides, the company is causing breach of contract if you have already signed an agreement with them.

Explain your problems to the bank and request them to verify the debit made by the company. They might help you by contacting the company and request verification.

Do you have a lawyer to represent you? You must take some legal counseling in dealing with the company.

I am currently trying to get through to anyone at Pinion Mgmt regarding taking a few hundred dollars more than they were supposed to out of my checking account. Seems odd that when I call the number I have they show that I did have an account with them and Pinion Mgmt handles their payment issues but they don't show a record of payments being made. Don't you think they would want to make sure that Pinion is giving them their money. Are they going to try and take this money out again in the future. I put a block on Pinion taking any money out of my checking account because this situation is ridiculous.

Mary, explain this problem to your bank. After understanding your problem, your bank will possibly place a dispute with Pinion Management over all the debits made by them. The company will be forced to verify the items or else you can put them into legal troubles. The number to call Pinion is 863-297-3072

Call Pinion at 863-297-3072 and get the details of your account in writing. No federal laws state that you will get endless calls at your work or home regarding past debt accounts. Besides, the company must have a prior consent from you if they can make calls at your work.

Send them a cease and desist letter and cover your basis legally. Hope this works out for you.

I have had Pinion Management call my job and we actually set up payment arrangments for my acct. I lost my debit card and had to get anther one, hen i called the number they gave me, no one had ever heard of Pinion Mgmt and didn't have an account saying they were debiting my account, i am disputing the debits, but i am afraid they can sue me, what should i do?

Hi Misha

Do you have the payment arrangement in writing? The company should have legal reasons before suing anyone. In my view, the company does not have a case here.
