ACN and Associates

Acn and Associates rep named "Miss Martin" called my job, saying that "a complaint has been filed against her" (me) and that they were going to "call the cops" on me. I called her back and she refused to discuss any balance amount unless I agreed to make a payment plan first. She finally admitted that the debt was from MTE, a payday loan company. I called the FTC (Federal Trade Commission) consumer line in Washington, DC. I was allowed to file a complaint against them and was told that I should get my own attorney to sue them because IT IS ILLEGAL TO CALL YOUR EMPLOYER AND THREATEN YOU WITH WAGE GARNISHMENT, POLICE ARREST OR JAIL!! ACN and ASSOCIATES IS BREAKING FEDERAL LAW WITH THEIR COLLECTION PRACTICES!!!! Furthermore, ACN and Associates is a sleazy collection agency pretending to be attorneys. Don't be afraid of them, they can't do what they say. The payday loan companies they represent are many different names, but all are connected to the same sleazy owner!! Also, most of the payday loan companies are not even licensed to do business in most states, but they illegally generate business through their Internet web sites. They will try to say that you are passing bad checks, because payday loans are made with your checking account used as collateral. Call the following agencies to file complaints against ACN and Associates and the payday loan companies: Federal Trade Comission, the Better Business Bureau and your own state's office for consumer affairs.
Most people have paid so many fees on their payday loans, that they have repaid the original loan amount many, many times. If these companies aren't registered to do business in your state, ignore them and don't believe them!! Good luck to all of you!

Bill Bennett is the owner/scam artist...the add above is the ups store and if you want to see the house they are calling from just search 114 Park ave Lockport Ny 14094 . There are no lawyers...just a drugged up fool who needs money for his special needs wife . He has collectors working payday loans from their homes. They threaten everything under the sun in cluding arrest and litigation...tell them to kiss you where the sun dont shine and by the way , even if you were stupid enough to pay Bill Bennett they are not reporting anything to anybody !! This guy is a joke and so are the clowns that work / smoke weed with him . For your own good please do not stress yourself with this , just threaten to contact the Ny Attorney General , Bud Hibbs and to get a lawyer . Bill Bennett does not have two nickels to rub together so he will leave you alone and try to get money from someone else . One minor lawsuit will sink the shop , if you can even call it a shop . Maybe we will get lucky and Bill will reply to these posts as he has on ripoff report and you will see how he cant even spell let alone speak correctly . That is the owner/CEO of this so called company ? What is this world coming to ? I would not let Will Bennett clean my toilet .

ACN stands for American Customized Network . I wanted to post this so everyone contacted will find this when they google it . They will change there company name eventually due to all the complaints that are popping up . Bud Hibbs is already aware of them so it is only a matter of time before Bill Bennett is forced to go back to working opp...that stands for other peoples paper

I keep getting this person calling with a recording and its a wrong number. I called to tell them it was a wrong number and she said that they would keep calling until the matter was resolved. And then she hung up on me. I called back and asked to clarify that even though they knew the correct person was not getting the message, they were planning on harrassing me personally and indefinatly and she said yes and hung up again. Is there anyone to report these jerks to?

Ok, I was mad and what I wrote doesn't make sense lol. This company keeps calling me at work. The calls are a recording, so I can't tell them that it is a wrong number. I've tried to call them before and usually just get a voicemail saying that the box is full but today I got through and talked to that ... woman... who kept saying she didn't care if it was a wrong number and hung up on me.

I have gotten phone calls like this at my parents house. As well on my phone as well. I contacted an attorny because i know my rights as a consumer and they are NOT allowed to THREATEN YOU over the phone. I asked them YESTERDAY to send me something saying I owed for this "payday loan". And I got a dial tone then a phone call back stating that MY CHILDREN ARE TO LOUD AND THEY NEED TO SHUT UP SO SHE CAN TALK! OH that made me so mad. I did use some curse words because kids are kids. Well I told her that I was not giving her crap unless I got a letter stating I owed this and how much it was for. Yes I do admit that there was a payday loan taken out a few years ago 4 actually and that I did pay it off. THIS COMPANY IS A FRAUD! Both attorny and police have said so. There is NO address where they can be sued at. DO NOT PAY THEM! I have paid one company like this for this same payday loan over 1000 dollars for a 150 dollar payday loan that was taken out in my name. I was scared at the time but when I didnt recieve a settlement letter in the mail or anything else I researched it. FRAUD COMPANY! Callers name was MS. MARTIN at that company which was CMG RECOVERY SERVICES! Same company same voices Same people!

Hello, I just received an EMAIL from A.C.N and Associates about a default loan through CashNet USA2. I do have a loan through CashNetUSA.com but I have never seen the 2 added after USA. In any case, I did default, fell on hard times and I went about my business trying to get my stuff in order and its taken me a few years now to get back on track. Well I was told by debt counselors that since it has been so long since last contact, just ride out the debt on my Credit Report until it meets this certain date. Well the only contact I get is this email dated 08/25/2010, subject line was Pre-litigation Notice, saying there is a case number for my debt and its being reviewed for civil and criminal charges and it gave an amount. I called this 877 426 2470 number and at first it said something about employment verification services and then a few selections regarding a summons etc. Well I waited and got an operator, mind you I made this call at 1130pm central time and this guy Eli Michaels was still in his office in Washington, DC. But at this point, I wasn't suspicions because I was freaked out about the whole court thing. He gave me a balance of over 4500 dollars but my email said 1766 but then he said it would be done and over if I paid 1010.00. I told him I was broke but I may have money before the 08/31 deadline and he said he can take my prepaid debit card which has no money on it which I told him and he said thats fine, just call him once money was loaded onto it and I gave him the card number and then he said he was tearing up the summons and I did hear what sounded like tearing paper. But as I was on hold to set the payment up, I get a call from a 706 number. After I was done, the dude told me goodluck and gave me no other info about a confirmation number...I hung up and called the 706 number back and it sounded like the same guy but he sounded disorganized like he was at home or something, mind you again this now 12am or so. He told me he was the payment guy I just talked to and he just asked me my name and gave some confirmation number. I hung up and did a number lookup and the area code gave it a location of California..3k miles away from Washington DC..also in the email was a website to do a webpayment @ www.acnandassociates.com, once i clicked it, it wanted me to log in which how the hell am I supposed to when I dont know a login and password to it..I cant find any legit website for this company as well as anything else to confirm that its a real company..please help!

I got the same thing yesterday. I have no idea WTF they are talking about. IT'S A SCAM, FRAUD, BS SHENANIGANS. You should not have given them any payment information. Call the FTC and file a complaint. These guys are all over the internet and have apparently been marked as fraudulent and illegal bill collectors posing as attorneys, which they are not. Also, it is illegal to threaten anything via email or telephone. Any legal action must be in written format served by postage mail. Don't worry about it. Just cancel your card.
