Question - My sister and her roommate are trying to rent a new place. Her roommate has a collection showing on his report. It was paid last month with a cashiers check. The collection agency hasn't updated his report to show the item as paid. And now they are telling him it will take them 30 to 45 days to update the credit reports. They also said it would take them that long to get him a letter stating the debt was paid in full. Is that right? Can they do that? They are trying to rent a place now, and need it either updated or they need a letter stating the debt was paid in full.

...and I've committed to payments that I can't make. I felt badgered into setting up a payment arrangement as they called me at work and said they would sue me if I didn't set something up that day to get me 'caught up'. The CA is Associated Creditors Exchange out of Phoenix and I had actually made two similar payments to them in the spring, but have since fallen behind again, thus prompting their recent calls. To date I have made each payment I have set up with them, but this time I've over committed.

My husband receive the same info and they gave him his social number and our home address stating that he owed a outstanding debt. they want him to give a post dated check and he said no. They are trying to get in to peoples bank accounts and other personal pls WATCH OUT FOR THESE PEOPLE. THE FBI NEED TO INVESTIGATE!!!!

Cash flow is becoming increasingly important to companies, which are now placing greater emphasis on collecting unpaid debts sooner. Thus, the workload for collectors is expected to continue to increase as they seek to collect not only debts that are relatively old, but ones that are more recent.   Freaking awesome bank!! psawilliams2003@yahoo.com 18 years 5 months ago Hi everyone. The saga continues with my friend and her checkngo installment loan. She has tried to make arrangements with them but they will not budge. She did report them to the state dept. of consumer affairs and the case has been assigned to a worker. But, a piece of good news is that she just contacted her bank to see if she can block the draft. They were completely cool and said that she could sign something that will block the draft forever!!! Thank goodness. At least she doesn't have to worry about nsf fees, etc.   301-882-9986 - Huskhawk group gave me loan without asking anything? ccox78@msn.com 18 years 5 months ago They put loan in my account w/o my authorization.

Can anyone help?   Closed Bank Account teriahosking@msn.com 18 years 5 months ago I thought maybe I could offer a little encourgement to those, worried about talking to their bank about their PDL's. I was a little nervous and embarrassed to walk in my bank and explain my PDL issues, but I have to say they were absolutely wonderful about it, very understanding. I did open a new checking account at the same bank, credit union actually (I know this is not recommended), I was worried since my credit is so awful I would have problems opening one somewhere else.   Arbitration hearing with cash call? leashdawg00@yahoo.com 18 years 5 months ago Has anyone went through an arbitration hearing with cash call?   PA - please help? anonymous 18 years 5 months ago I'm stuck in a payday loan cycle in PA - does anyone know of a viable solution to help me get out of this mess?!?!
