debt collectors go to a special on-line school. Why, who knows. They would make more money and serve the public more by working at the golden arches.

1. "I'm a collector because I have no one in real life to talk to, so I pass on my own insecurities to consumers via the telephone, because if I harassed people face to face, I would have been put in the hospital numerous times for being pummeled."
2. "I'm a collector because when I was a kid, I hurt furry, little animals via the **** passage, and as an adult I can only find the berating of consumers to almost bring me back to those satisfying times."
3. "I'm a collector because I am a glutton for punishment. I want to call and harass Anthony Lemons, because he and his family members have a knack for locating the exact cubicle where I call from, and place a memorable visit upon me. They then make a verbal agreement with me, and I go along with it, because is a collector's wage truly worth breaking an agreement of this magnitude?"
Some of you collectors can verify the last reason. wink wink.

Some members here may have experienced a reduction in calls from certain collectors. Sometimes a sit down with an individual in a parking lot after work is just as effective as a sit down in a crowded conference room. It must be the atmosphere.

They never want to sit down with me. They always send some overpriced defense lawyer that costs twice the amount of the debt they were trying to collect.

Perhaps your not speaking the language that is universal. There are words that even the most primitive beings understand. Collectors being the primates.

I might owe some old credit cards and I might not. The colletion agency never proved the debts as mine. They were a total of 42,000. If these debts are proved mine, I will wait until a judgement is ordered, so the colletion company pays big bucks in court to win. Then, I shall file BK7 and the collection company will be out lots of money.

No one goes to jail for having a sit down. The cops only come if a crime has been committed, not for having a 'business' meeting. Please learn the laws before spouting useless nonsense.

I had to use a "debtor excuse" today. FMS called to arrange my monthly payment and I didn't have the money on hand. I had to put our 17-year-old cat to sleep on Sunday and the costs for the vet wiped me out for the week. The man was very sweet though and said he understood and we made the payment arrangement for a week later.

The major difference is that "debtor excuses" are just that. Collectors lying, etc. is breaking the law.
