MomX, I just got that call.  Could you post a sample copy of your letter you sent?  I would greatly appreciate it.

Yo

left message stating I need to call and get info. about something I'm not aware of yet.

I got the same thing as momto5- except he gave his name Mike Powell and said he needed to speak with me about a issue I may not be aware of

I got a message that said a decision was be made on my behalf and if i wanted to be involved in that decision i should call her asap. I called it back and asked what kinda of business it was she said they handle all kinds of things and asked me what number she called me at then i hung up.

THIS COMPANY IS PHOENIX DEBT MANAGEMENT, IT IS A COLLECTION AGENCY, THEY ARE HORRIBLE, I HAD TO SEND A CEASE AND DESIST LETTER TO THEM BY CERTIFIED MAIL, I ACTUALLY GOT INTO A DEBT MANAGEMENT PROGRAM BUT THEY STILL CALLED WHICH IS AGAINST THE LAW, I HAD A BILL THAT I OWED OF $500, SET UP A PAYMENT PLAN THAT YOU FEEL COMFORTABLE WITH, THEY WILL TRY TO GET YOU TO PAY IT OFF IN 2 PAYMENTS, IF THEY INSIST YOU PAY MORE TELL THEM YOU WANT THEIR ADDRESS, PHONE AND FAX NUMBERS, IF THEY WILL NOT GIVE IT TO YOU, THAT IS AGAINST THE LAW REPORT THEM TO THE FTC OR FDCPA, SEND THEM A LETTER, THEIR FAX NUMBER IS 785-242-2658, AND THEIR ADDRESS IS P.O. BOX 11127,  KANSAS CITY, MO  64119, AND IF IT GETS BAD CONTACT LANGHORNEDS.COM, THEY SPECIFICALLY DEAL WITH PAYDAY LOANS, AND WILL HELP YOU OUT

Woman named Sherry called my former roommate (who would have been listed as a reference) stating that they were NRS Agency calling regarding a legal matter.  When he told them I've skipped town (which he's been instructed to say...) and asked if they were a collection agency, they responded no, but wanted to know if he knew if I still worked at my previous place of employment.

2 weeks ago, I moved out of state to live with my parents because financially I was f'ed...

Everything I've found for this phone number points to PDM (pheonix debt management) dealing with payday loans (which I have several outstanding...whoops...no money to pay 'em back).

He (prior roommate) said he'll tell them to f' off if they call him again.  He couldn't believe they out right lied like that.  

Is it legal for them to use different business names?  Or do they change their names frequently?

They appear to be consistent with debt collection procedures, the person who called is Rhonda she simply states that, 'they have received information which may be an oversight on your part' they give time frames in which to call.  In this message it says before 8pm Central Time (I think) then before 8 am, in the morning.  I don't recall as I deleted the message (as I usually do with these types of calls) here's my guideline I know who my callers are, if I see an # that says, Unknown (on cell phones it will show up that way) or home lines that don't have blocking, I simply won't answer! anything that says 800, 866, or anything else out of the ordinary gets my fabulous VM.  If you took out on a payday loan, they cannot intimidate you or force you to pay money you don't have, one word of warning if though if they know your employment information and you are still there beware as they can also garnish your wage, so try to get some help from an outside agency on this can become ugly otherwise.  But by all means do not commit to something you cannot pay back, if you cannot make ends meet now don't agree to anything with collections as they don't care and their job is to simply collect on the loan they have purchased.  check for legal help or agencies that specialize in resolving matters...if its ignored it can also backfire.  Go to: http://www.langhornelaw.com & check them out, they do not offer services in Florida, Georgia, Idaho, Kansas,  South Carolina, Wisconsin and West Virginia.

Please post and let me know if this helps.

You people kill me.  I looked up this number before I called and was scared to say the least.  I know I have some outstanding payday loans but understand that it is only my responsibility to pay them back or end up in a collection office.  I called them and they gave me an arrangement for two payments (interest free) which is alot better than with the payday loan people.  I don't understand if you just make an arrangment they won't call you again.  I don't get why people want to push the blame on other people or cry about being called on a collection or about someone lying to them when they lied??  The difference with most of you is one day I will be back on my feet not by looking for everyway out of my bill but just calling and talking to somone and figuring it out.

It wasn't about you Bobby, get over it, people have the right to express their thoughts openly its freedom of speech, don't judge those you don't know, you wouldn't like it done to you (I'm almost sure of that)

So once you get on your feet we won't have to worry about seeing your comments on here, I guess there is a win situation to this...

thanks!

Who is this agency?

recvd call from this agency stating i may have overlooked something i called back told them what i could pay. tehy didn;t agree and now have taken money out of my checking account.

They violated several sections of the FDCPA in doing that. Plus, you could always (and I WOULD) dispute the withdrawal from your account as fraud with your bank. Do it. Do it NOW!!

That would be no different if you went to a store and bought $40 worth of goods only to have the merchant take $100 out of your account. You'd fight THAT wouldn't you?? This is NO different.

Send them an intent to sue letter. And make'em PAY. >:(

Best of luck to you!!!

A couple of months ago I actually managed to get $200 back from these bastards and the BS company that sicked them on me.  I simply filed a complaint with my bank and was refunded my money and the NSF fees caused by their unauthorized withdrawal. Unfortunately, because the company that gave me the unsolicited loan believes that they are entitled to the more than $700 they wanted for a $200 loan, these pricks are back to calling and leaving ambiguously threatening messages on my machine again.

Who are they and what do they want?

I got an automated message on my cell phone. Calling for my sister... who has NEVER lived with me or even in the same zip code since the 1992!
And the whole speil of "call us back for an important message at 888-622-0222"

But the ID came in different. If they actually call me back with a live person, I'll just say she's been disowned and FOAD.

Don't no who this is they called on my cell phone but left no message.  Need this to stop.
