Oh Volley, please do..I received an e-mail from him yesterday and today...Cannr and I were just pm-ing about him. I keep sending the same e-mail back but evidently he can't read or the manual has not told him what to write in repsonse. I will look forward to your response and remember I want copywrite permission. Roxy

| Quote: | Dear Mr. Atkins,
I am in receipt of your email today regarding a problem with my checking account. I certainly appreciate the notice but I wish you would have elaborated further about what type of issue I am having with my account. You see, the account belongs to me yet I, myself, have yet to have a problem with it since I closed it in order to stop your company from stealing every penny out of it.
Additionally, I sensed a slight tone of hostility in your email and felt that it was very firm considering you didn’t tell me what the problem was. Mr. Atkins, might I recommend you change your diet to include more fruit and vegetables and perhaps shop organic. You should also consider a colonic as well as being dragged behind a pony at your local petting zoo.
In conducting minor calculations, I see that your company owes me money in return. I expect this bounty to be delivered to the address you have on file in the form of new millstones so I may grind my own wheat for flour or in US currency of $400.
I wish you well in your quest and may you have safe travels in finding out what problem I am having with my account.
Best Regards |

Yes! Tim Atkins is the name of all the collectors for Payday Loan Yes, Cash Net 500, etc.
Please do a search for Cash Net 500 here. You will read all about Tim Atkins. He is a jerk!
When I had my loan with Cash Net 500 they sent me that same email every week.

But seriously, every collection guy for that company uses the name Tim Atkins.
They are very difficult to deal with. It's virtually impossible to get a PIF from them. "Tim Atkins" even fought with the supervising examinor from my state (the guy in charge of pdl's). Fought with him on the phone! I never heard from them again after the call, but still, to have the balls to argue with a state offical????

Tree - Cannr advises to e-mail Tim back the sam pdl letter you initially sent in the first place. That is what I have been doing. Although, I love Volley's response much better than mine.

Tim Atkins was the name of the guy who screamed at me when I called to find out how much I owed Cashnet500. I asked if this was Tim Atkins and he said yes real softly..then I hesitated just for a second...before I could say anything he screamed "what do you want lady..speak up or get off the phone..I am busy!" At that point I just slammed the phone down and vowed to never call them again. That was over 2 years ago...I am surprised to see he is still working...it sounds to me like he's been cloned!!!

Must be the name they used as an example in the manual and they don't know to substitute their own names.

You guys who are being hit by "Tim", every email "Tim" sends you, reply by email the same damn letter you sent them to begin with. He calls you? Email him the letter. He emails you? Email him the letter. Over and over and over. (Unless you're volley, of course!) This way, they will eventually "get it" (duh) and maybe offer a response to your letter. Also, this way, you have total documentation (needed!) that you have informed these people numerous times of your stance regarding these loans. You will have documentation. Send the same damn letter over and over and over. If "Tim" does call you, hang up and just email the letter. It's not worth the stress of him screaming at you with his illegal tactics. Just hang up and send the email. He emails? Hit reply and send the letter.

I am simply stunned that this jerk can still be harrassing people. Do you really think there are a group of people using this name...do you think the women go by the name of Tim Atkins..also???
