| Has anyone ever had any experiences with this company. I received a letter in the mail from this company about three weeks ago about a fingerhut account that I had 5 years ago (or more). |

Hi Rhonda
I found that RJM is a collection agency. They also don't seem to have a good consumers' feedback.
Their physical address is:
RJM ACQUISITIONS
PO BOX 12023
HAUPPAUGE, NY 11788
They use different numbers to call the consumers. Some of them which I found have been listed below.
800-786-0825 or 516-714-1300 or 800-353-2497
Regards

I am dealing with them on a Fingerhut bill also. They have been pretty decent. We worked it out with them that if we didn't take the "free present" that they gave you if you paid off the bill all in one lump sum, that they would settle for about $150 less than they were going to. We told them we would give them $25 a month. I have missed a couple months and they have not said anything, or even called. I just called in and paid by phone when I could. They have been really patient with us at this point. _________________ Register today to encash debtcc points. |

| I also am working with them and never had a problem. They actually offered to "help" me with improving my credit. I don't know if I am going to do it..I probably should. They will take 150.00 off my debt and I would have to pay another 192.00 on a Majestic Credit card. Once that is paid I would get issued the real card and my debt is paid in full. |

| Thanks for your posts! I am trying to buy a house and this is one of the items on my credit report that I need to clean up. I just wanted to see if they would be difficult to make arrangements with. |

Rhonda, are you negotiating with them to get this item removed from your credit file? _________________ Debtconsolidationcare offers free counseling and help, please avail the services before taking any major decisions. |

Have they validated the debt as per the FDCPA laws? If it has been done, then it will be better to pay it off as early as possible so that you improve your credit file. _________________ Debtconsolidationcare offers free counseling and help, please avail the services before taking any major decisions. |

| Yeah. That is the one thing I always do when collectors contact me. It isnt much, so I will pay it off within the next two weeks. |

|

RJM has teamed up with Capital to deceive people with little or no credit. Capital One is offering pre approved credit cards for debt which RJM has accquired. People who are in debt often use credit card offers to get through, but I think this is very close to trickery. Is this legal. thanks _________________ Register today to encash debtcc points. |

terri,
Offering credit card to those with poor or no credit seems to be fishy. If the person is already in debt, what is the guarantee that he will repay credit card balance in future?
The practice is unfair, but the eligibility criteria of getting a credit card, I think, are defined by the company. So they can offer whatever they want, it is our responsibility to keep ourselves aside from bad things. |

|

I received an offer from Capital One. They got my info from RJM. Trouble is the offer is to John Ragsdale, someone who used my social secuirty number to get credit and RJM passed on this fradulent account information. Shred those credit card offers!! _________________ Register today to encash debtcc points. |

Please don't neglect the issue. If this 'someone' fails to repay the credit, the responsibilities might come to you since your SS# has been used. Beware of identity theft!
Keep a watchful eye on your credit report just to confirm no abnormal entry is there. You can also place a fraud alert on your credit report if you predict such threats. Contact any credit bureau immediately. |
