      ***ck this company. I have been trying to get on my feet again since COVID and all this company has done is knock me down. You think your going to get my to pay the extra 600 you add on to my debt. The * is wrong with you. Im a single parent, the holidays are coming up and Im living paycheck to paycheck. You guys are scum. Im a debt collector and I treat my clients so much better. I hope this company ends up closing down and all the people working their end ** in debt and see how hard it is to get back on your feet!

      Got a certified letter from them today. Has my girlfriends name listed as have a debt. She has never lived in ********* period. Last address listed for this lady was in *********. Social security numbers not even close. But sent me papers so they could garnish this person pay check. No contact to verify some one. They just going on a witch ****, no idea how they even assumed they are the same person. Pretty sure they can trace her employment and find out where she works. Being a single owner LLC with no employess or payroll even for me. Incompetent company for sure. I'll contact the credit card company and complain

      They started garnishing wages and had set 220-250$ per check to remedy a debt that isn't even being reported as current or any of the money they're taking ***** being deducted from my owed debt on my credit reports. I called to make payment arrangements and was told I was all set only to see they have taken my pay again after being told they wouldn't and being sent documents stating that I would be paying on my own. These guys are horrible and need to get shut down. Speaking to a lawyer already about what to do since they have technically breached the contract we set up. This company is a horrible one and in no way professional.

      They are absolute scam artists. They say it's their choice to get a lein against a bank account or go to your employer. Then the next representative says different that they can't do that. Funny how I have been with the same employer for 5 years and they definitely do not do their due diligence in any form of the matter. But they are happy to extort money from people and constantly refuse a settlement offer and will only accept fax or snail mail this is the 20th century and they refuse to get with the times. They know that snail mail is slow and can be lost so they can tack on more and more fees that are outrageous!

      Absolute thieves. This firm uses to legal laws to perform illegal tactics in collecting debts. Every time there is a complaint on them, they deny it. I was never served any legal paperwork after a garnishment was levied against me. They too $1200 from my bank account, and I received no prior notice. No notice of the judgement, no notice of the garnishment to my accounts. When collecting a debt, they have incorrect information and still some how legally get their money. There needs to be a class action lawsuit brought against them that will put these thieves out of business. Once my garnishment is paid in full, the past debt better be taken off my credit and be labeled paid in full. I will be contacting my state's Attorney General and personal legal representation to have this matter truthfully cleared up and right.

      I think this is an accurate description of this firm - a 1 star review. This firm evidently uses mail to serve people their summons and they do not even try to see if the address is accurate for the person they are trying to "serve". They will obtain a court order to garnish (or steal, however you want to say it) funds from a bank account with an illegal court judgement - illegal because they have never served the person. If you can find a person's bank account information, then you can certainly find their current address. This firm should be REQUIRED by LAW to use due diligence in finding current addresses. Yet another proof that many attorneys are criminals in suits.

      This company has a levy on my bank account and has taken $540 already. They say I owe them ***** because of a Best buy credit card I had used and I have never had a Best buy credit card in my life and this creditor is not even on my credit accounts. They are a scam and I want my freedom back. The debt belongs to someone else and I have told them that and they won't listen. They assume it is me and they have the wrong person. This company is ruthless and heartless.
