Suing Collection Agency need Settlement Advice - HELP!

15 years 11 months ago
I wasn't sure how to title this and can't find much info on it. So I'm in need of some advice. I sent an intent to sue letter to a collection agency whom I had a very strong case against and let them know I would settle, out of court, for 5k. I knew that they would come back and want to haggle. Their attorney (whom also is a tenant who shares the same office space as them) called me to discuss the matter with me. He's been very polite and says he understand my case is solid and the seriousness of what happened with the collector. He said he could only offer me $500 to settle.

 

500 Fast Cash - Compliance ???

15 years 11 months ago
I had to close my bank account. I receied an email from 500 Fast Cash to contact them, I have tried to all them but they tell me that they cannot help but they would send a email to the collections dept to call me. I have call twice and sent 4 emails, no response. I finally found the phone number for the collections dept. They told they could not help me but the compliance dept would be contacting me. Not sure if this was started because I ask if they were legal in Oregon. I have had about 4 loans from them. How do I contact them

Help with credit card collection

15 years 11 months ago
:confused:I have a large credit card debt that I've been unable to make a payment on since last July or so. I lost my job in February 2009 and didn't find a new one until late July at less than 50% of what I previously made. I purchased a home in 2008 after a divorce, and at the time all of my payments were affordable. Due to my dramatic decrease in income, my house payments went in arrears, so I cashed in some retirement savings to bring that current.

EPP time frame

15 years 11 months ago
How long do I need to have a loan before asking for an EPP. I have had one with Quik Cash for about 2 months and I struggle each time to make my payments. Is this enough time to ask and get an EPP? I have had several loans with them over the course of the past few years and repaid them back successfully, but right now, I am just stuck. I live in AZ. Thanks!

 

Predatory practices and freedom subscription

15 years 11 months ago
Did you know if you apply for a online predatory loan that other companies have access to your account and can charge your account without your authorization? I have had two companies, freedom subscription and MM rewards charge my checking account unknowingly to me. This is so ridiculous and unfair to consumers.

 

Debt Validation Letter

15 years 11 months ago
I sent a debt validation letter to Aegis Collections in January 2010 and they have not validated the debt. I received the signed certified mail receipt back as well. They are and have been calling me every day like 10 times a day with a recording. Is there anything else I can do since they are still calling and have not verified the debt? Please advise. Thanks.
