Please help us keep it clean: Report fully commercial videos by adding reply and voting it negative. We want helpful videos.

From moderator's desk Editor's rating: 9/10 This video is a real life example of creditor harassment on phone. We personally liked this video as it offers a unique experience to someone who hasn't been in such situation. It's no teaching, it's no big talks but a real life example. You will enjoy it. - Denny
About Video : I got a nastygram from American Credit Collections, LLC. out of Scranton, Pennsylvania in the beginning on June, 2007. I immediately called their telephone number and received a series of harassing telephone calls.

This is a decent example of some of the strong arm tactics used by collection agencies. This site will help to educate you to your rights, best of all it's free.

Excellent way of handling that situation for sure. He did not back down once and kept up and calling her back it was great. They are jacka$$ for sure.
