I found an interesing page on the Federeal Trade Commission (FTC) website which identifies what countries the US has agreements with in relation to Consumer Protections laws, and in some instances links to those eagreements or listings of the relavent foreign agency or bureau a consumer can contact if they are having problems (say with a certain UK based pay day lender) The pages is titled " FTC International Activities : International Antitrust and Consumer Protection Cooperation Agreements" Check it out at http://www.ftc.gov/bc/

Has anyone had any dealings with Accounts Receivable Technology? Who do they normally collect for? My rep at Town & Country is going to call them but I was just wondering until I hear back from her. I did call them but didn't say much and their computers were down. I told the guy I didn't want to deal with it over the phone and he said we should be getting or have gotten a letter. They are in Woodbridge, NJ, the office that called us. He did give me an address.

I am looking for any help on this company. I am looking for a mailing address. I have two different phone numbers for them, but would like to find out where they are located. One is 866-645-1661. This numbers states they are CPD (Credit Protection Depot in Las Vegas), supposedly doing collections for CPD. The other number is the main number of 866-398-2274. I know there paperwork states that they are from Grenada? Any info would be appreciated. They will only work out payment arrangments with a credit counselor. I am unbale to find one that will work with only one loan.

This number keeps showing up on caller id. 847-410-8080. When I answer the phone, no one is there. Calls 3 times a day. Last night called at 9:10 pm.

I have filed chapter 7 and did not wish to keep my house or car and was needing another car and was wondering if this company offers assistance with financing?

I received a letter from a lawyer Arthur S Corrales, ESQ in FL. and I live in the Midwest. It is about a bill from T-Mobile over a cell phone I purchase about 3 yrs ago which I sent back because it was to big. Here is what the letter states: We represent T-Mobile in connection with a debt collection matter. Please be advised that the above stated account has been directed to our law firm for collection. Contact office xxxxx to resolve this matter. We trust and respectfully request that you will take the necessary steps to bring this account to a conclusion.

Have you heard of them

Ok so the other issue I have is my derogatory student loans... First off I had 5 student loans through citibank that went derogatory, Then they were purchased/taken over by the dept of education that went derogatory, Finally I have consolidated then loans and am paying on a regular basis... But the problem that I have is that now I have 10 bad reports on my credit file...How do I get them removed?

I have been hearing that there is a 4th collection agency and after doing alot of digging, I have found them. Innovis Consumer Assistance, PO Box 1358 Columbus, Ohio 43216-1358 They charge $7.00 for a report. Beings they are a credit bureau I would have thought that we would have been entitled to a free annual report from them also.

Is it legal for a collection agency to send out info with your full SSN, when even the Big 3 CRA's cover the first 5 digits on their reports?
