Anyone ever had to deal with National Action Financial Services, Inc. (NAFS)? Last week two of my Sears accounts were purchased and placed with NAFS. I have been working with a debt settlement company for over a year. Things had been going well, but about a month ago my advisor with the debt settlement company quit without notice. Unfortunetly, clients were not informed of this. She had done an amazing job over the past year with my creditors. Now that she's gone things seem to be unraveling. I'm hoping once they get reorganized things will improve again. However, in the meantime I have NAFS breathing down my neck. I owe about $19,000 between the two accounts they have taken on. Does anyone know what this collection agency is like to deal with? So far they seem very uncooperative, and not willing to settle. They just took these accounts last week. Do you think they may be more willing to settle after a month or so? Also does anyone know how often they attempt lawsuits? Thanks...NDebt
They leave a recorded message saying to call the 800 number. The voice on the recording is the same all the time even though he keeps on changing his name, and they never identify themselves nor do they identify whom they're calling. I did a search on google on the 716 number, and got to this thread.
I have so far 14 messages saved in my voicemail.
Please Advise,
Thanks,
Leibtek

Because I got a "human" I started asking what was going on - only to have the same refrain - "that number has been pulled or is not in our database". When I mentioned State Attorney Genneral, harrassement the gentleman acted concerned. When I made the comment that no one left a business name or personal name when calling I had a problem (especially since I was returning a call they made!) When I pointed out that when he answered the phone with just a "hello" ( no personal/professional info - just hello) he got nasty and hung up on me.
THANKS! for the address info! Now I have some ammo to go after them and give to the AG's office! This is bs - you call them back and get the run around and they claim nothing, but they still keep calling!

Even when she picks up the phone, it can be an automated recording, but a few times, she has spoken with someone, and when she told them NEVER to call her home again, and that they do not have the rights to, the 'employee' replied: yes we do, and I'll make sure this continues until we are paid. Then told her she was 'obnoxious and rude' before he hung up on her. :P The gov't loves stuff like that when they get that in their complaints.
Just remember to log all calls, because even if you DO owe someone, they cannot harass you, the law states that. And NAFS is known to tell people they will 'sue them' for payment. Sears must make that determination, not them.
