Bass & Associates 866-900-7694 Bank Fraud

Right...Pre Litigation is registered with Florida. But the point is, Ellis wants everyone to call them Bass & Associates because he is using this name to throw the authorities off his trail...why should we oblige?

I was told Ellis Crosby is in jail

[color=red]I think you enjoy me editing your posts. Make another reference that this company is making unfounded, immoral advances toward you, and we'll ban your IP. Enough with the sexual comments. -JediJeff[size=2][/size][/color]

I don't get why ppl come on here and waste our time :evil:

What is going on with the deleted posts??? Someone must be saying something really really stupid.

I received a call from a Thurston Bridges saying I owe money to US National Bank. I don't have any idea about this loan. I called back after he yelled, cursed me out at work during a Managers meeting (which was embarrassing). I called back to the 877-281-2220 number and asked for Thurston Bridges whom transfered me to Sonny. After I asked him about this matter, he informed me I had until 2pm, then I would be arrested for missappropriation of funds, solicitation of funds and invalid account number. I told him I didn't know what he was talking about and he said it was an outstanding loan with SJM Marketing or US National Bank. I told him I had no loan with this bank and he said then your warrant will be served to your Primary address. I'm a professional Nurse and this would ruin my License, so I asked how much I owed and he said they don't want your money, they want to make an example out of you and have you arressted. I said for what, he said here's your case number and I'm not talking to you anymore. Just be home at 2pm for your arrest warrant. I was so nausea that I was sick for the last 2 days and afraid to go home and see who has my address. My husband isn't home at night, he drives a truck and I just don't know what to do. Please can anyone give me some advise?

Just about everyone on here have dealt with these ppl. If they were going to arrest us, we would all be in jail now. Don't take their threats to heart...

I live in Texas.

Go to this website and check out the state laws for payday loan lending in your state. paydayloaninfo.org Click on state info, and then scroll down and click on your state.

You should also file a complaint with Florida's AG office as well as with your own state. These are nothing more than a bunch of losers who were court mandated to anger management, but obviously chose employment at Bass and Associates. They are lying you aren't going to be arrested they are just trying to extort money out of you. I understand how frightened you must have been to hear this idiot make those threats to you.

Thank you everyone for all your help and suggestions. It is greatly appreciated.

I wonder what this company's fascination with 2PM deadlines is. That's when they told me they would arrest me if I had not paid. Still waiting.

Guest--

This company is full of s*** :evil:

Amen, Brown Sugar!!! And might I add with a cherry on top? Maybe the 2 pm deadline is when day shift goes off. Just a thought...

I think it's just a random time that they used - but what's interesting is that most banks close the business day at 2pm - any business transacted after that goes on the next business day's records. Think it might be that they're trying to attain certain quota level by that time?

Could be, SB, or maybe that's the time they need to process payments by to send to the bank. Either way, it stinks.

I got my call from Bass & Associates (that's what they called themselves atleast) last night. The woman was like I'm w/Bass & Associates and we are attempting to collect outstanding balances on 4 pdls, and that United Federal Bank was the lender for B & L Mkt., Platinum B, and two others I'll include those later don't have my notes w/me. She gives me this fictious account number, and then tells me that they will be processing papers for my arrest, that i had committed fraud, and theft by deceptin because they had deposited funds into my checking account, that I had applied for online.
I calmly told her that I was aware of my rights, and the states PDL laws, and that I'm currently working with a consumer counselor and attorney(which they had no intrest of the companys name or number), and that their threats, nor attempts at intimidation would scare me. She gave a phone number that I wrote down that I'll post too, once I return to the house.
At one time I would of fallen for these scare tactics, and jumped. But thanks to this forum and the information and help I've received I was able to stand up to them w/o fear. So thanks again to this forum, and I hope that I can do something to help someone else out. My battle is far from over but atleast now I can actually see a light at the end of the tunnel. I've got hope and that's truly important.

I recieved a call from lynn reyes as well 877-281-2220 he said that this had nothing to do with my filing bankruptcy on the company that they are now filing fraudulent charges against me cause i did the cash advance over the internet i told him he need to spk with my lawyer he started threating me and everything i finally hung up on him and told him not to contact me again.

Like I stated in the other post, defiantly call your lawyer and file a complaint with the attorney general.
The contacted me as well after my bankruptcy.

Yeah i think they did find the site.. They need to put themselves in our shoes and see what its like to be harrassed.

I recieved multiple calls from bass and associates threating me and such. I filed chapter 7 in 2006 and included the debt they tried to tell me it had absolutely nothing to do with my filing chapter 7 that since i did the cash advance over the internet i had committed internet fraud and a bunch of other stuff. I spoke with my attorney who advised me it has everythign to do with my filing chapter 7 and since they were included they cant do anything. she advised for me to get their telephone number and direct supervisor and any other info and she would call them directly.. as they cannot contact me its against the law!!!!

wow, keep us posted on what happens with your attorney contacting them. I'm curious to see how they react ot having an attorney call them....I wonder if they will tell more lies.

Hello everyone the same thing that happen to everyone has happen to me, I havent file any complaints yet but I will, However it seems like they are so many complaints againts this company and they are still open doing illegal business, so I have an idea, we should all get together and inform tv networks and have them do a story and investigation on these like msnbc how they caught companies using illegal ways with consumer, maybe if we can do these we get these companies to shut down, I think everyone should be warn about this companies

they got me for two loans im still paying on, i found out that my loans went paid in full and i still owe on them. so i called sonny and he will not ancer my calls and i will file a case aginst them and will find out what is going on here, and try to get my money back.what a bounch of crap this companie is.

If you don't mind me asking, what companies did you have the two loans with?

i got a call from patti moore stating that my account just came to her reguarding national bank wants to file charges against me for a payday loan that i just got on the 23 of dec it was suppose to come out of my account on the 5th the account that i gave them was my savings account which they couldnt withdraw funds out of i honestly ddint know that i get alot of my bills withdrawed from that acct. my checking has been closed for a year. patti says that they wanted to file charges against me because i knew that they were not going to be able to take it out of my acct then she asked me my adress as if someone was going to come and get me from home . not to mention she also stated that it was a misdemeador she literally had me crying i would never do anything fradualent she said that i need to pay 751.00 today . mind you my loan was just due 4 days ago i have not got a call or a message from anyone until today i was waiting for the loan company to take it out of acct this is shady.

Guest, this is not just shady, it's a lie. Plain and simple.

They cannot arrest you for defaulting on a payday loan. Chances are very good that they are not even licensed in your state. Can you tell us what state you are in, and we'll do our best to offer you some advice to get yourself out of this situation.

Also, how much was the original amount of the loan, and have you paid anything on it at all yet? If so, how much? This info will help us offer you some advice.

Yes, it sure looks like Bass & associates or whatever they are calling themselves today found this site and are writing their own posts. When they called me to tell me they were trying to collect a debt. yes I had a debt..that was not paid 6 days ago....they started right off the bat with how I was going to be arresed and my husband was going to be arrested, and they were going to embarrass me in front of my coworkers and they were currently "processing" where I was to come there. I asked what I had to do to take care of the loan immediately. They got nasty and said" oh..so you are refusing to pay this???" I don't know what language they were speaking but, I never said that. They kept putting me on hold and then other people would get on the phone and start the harrassment all over. All I wanted to do was take care of this. They gave me several different names and then claimed to know that I dont pay any of my bills etc. I don't know where they were coming from! I called the original companies back and they referred me 3 times over. I want to pay this, never intended to default, but it has only been 6 days & I've never heard from the original company on this. From what I've read, they can't threaten to arrest me and I would be appreciative to have spoken to someone there that was pleasant so I could pay this amount. They also would not give me how they got up to 1600 overnight on this. I asked for it in writing and they said I could not have that. So I guess they will get it from my lawyer. Go ahead BASS & ASSOCIATES reply with how helpful you are and try to convince by signing in as guests 100 times that you are a good company and dont have complaints filed against you with the FTC. Keep changing your name so they can't come after you. that appears to be the fraud here.

If you have their address, send them a debt validation request via certified mail with return receipt requested. You can always find it on the BBB website. I think they might be out of Florida because I believe I was called by them at the end of December under another name. No, you can't be arrested for this debt. Also, file a complaint with the FTC as well as the BBB and your state's AG's office.

I just received another call from this company and was told me that they were going to charge with misappropriation of funds and bad checks and this is a federal offense because US National Bank is a federal bank and this is federal charges - and when i told her that I willingly wanted to pay this she started asking personal information about my husband and i told her i wouldn't give any info about him she became very nasty and said that they are filing their motions in PA and that i better retain an attorney.

This company is so full of crap, they tried to spill a bunch of bank lingo on me...They felt quite stupid when I told them I worked at a bank and everything they were saying didn't make sense. There isn't even a US National Bank.

I got a call today. Didn't see it coming. Thanks for all the info. I will be sending the debt validation letter and contacting the AG here and in Florida.

I have never heard such harse words before in my life. The man that spoke to me was very mean. He told me that I might as well forget about taking my clothes to the cleaners. I would no longer be able to afford too. I might as well start going to the goodwill and washing by hand. All of this for a $345. payday loan. They also threaten to notify my job that I was a criminal. They are very unpersonal, and would not give out their address.

There was a member who used to come on here who was a convicted felon who worked as a collector for this company, (she told me so in a pm). So if that tells you anything about the type of people there. He is making illegal threats, I suggest you file a complaint with your state's Attorney General as well as the AG in Florida (where they are located). He is making ILLEGAL AND FALSE threats (otherwise known as extortion). I know it is hard to hear the threats but please know this, he is LYING and you are NOT a criminal and will NOT be arrested. Tell him that you are downloading him the next time he calls.

I had a debt with a pdl company and the compay told me it was ok they would set up payment arrangements. We agreed on an amount and two days before my first payment, I get a call from the people at bass and associates, saying that they needed to speak to me or my attorney. I answered them, telling them i didn't have an attorney but I wished to take care of it. Seeing as how the original debt company sent me paperwork agreeing to my payment plan. I was told by bass that I had to contact this company get the info as to what happened and call them back by noon. Otherwise they were downloading the papers to file fraud against me. (I have never heard that one before, I always thought you had to physically go and do this). I was livid. I called the original debt company they said due to an error when the girl entered the info, it was accidentally sold to this company. They even stated that this company is known for threatening people. But once it is sold they can't do anything or wouldn't do anything about it.
I called the lady back at bass and though she was nice about it and even gave me about 2 weeks to pay the debt. I was still angry that I was being dupped. I mean seriously, I only had one acccount, that was accidentally late, I made the arrangements to pay it without the company having to contact me. I mailed the first payment to the PDL company as agreed so that it was there on the first due date. ANd then I'm presented with someone who at first was rude saying I would be filed against for fraud charges. How in the world do they get away with this??? I understand that someone has to collect debts but to do it in such an underhanded way is ridiculous. On top of that their employees have the nerve to make such rude comments on a board meant to help people. I guess they don't like it when people start to catch on to their ways...

Oh. Yeah. I also paid off my debt with Bass and was told that I would get a letter showing my account paid off. I never got the letter, called in twice more and requested the letter only to get an "i'm sorry, we'll send one out to you", yeah right. Its been about 4 months and I still haven't gotten one. :x

If you paid your bills and acted like a decent human being you wouldnt have a problem with collection agencies.

OH NO YOU DIDN'T! haha! Here it comes again! ACTION. The guests are back and ready to be judgemental. BRING IT

Sorry, that was ME! I forgot to log in. Want to make sure the guests know whose talking to them.

Again if you paid your bills like reasonable people you wouldnt need to be in this forum because collectors would have no reason to call you.

I love you and people like you Pay Your Bills. I don't hold a grudge against somebody because they have such a closed mind and lead a picture perfect, financial perfect life. Congratulations. Now do you have any constructive advice other than that? I love it now that guests can post again, I miss this banter. LOL

They're back....the perfect people are back.

These guys like pay your bills are absolutely nutty!
:mrgreen: :mrgreen: :mrgreen: :mrgreen: Been accused of being a deadbeat debtor more times then back in late 1990 when I actually was late :shock: Must be something in the water or something :lol: :lol:

I miss guests like Pay Your Bills. They are so grouchy, condescending, uptight. Makes me think they are lacking some type of intimacy in their lives and they are frustrated.

ATTENTION: If you are an employee of Bass and Associates, then you are a slime ball, crooked piece of fecal matter. Now get lost.

You are a moron, a hypocrit, a pathalogical liar, an ingrate. Get a life.

(This is fun, next..)

Hey, I wasn't talking to you Anthony. The post was meant for Pay Your Bills, but their previous post was deleted. Please, take no offense. It wasn't meant for you.
