First off, why does anyone on here correspond with this Stephanie broad? She obviously has no social skills, is unprofessional when dealing with the public and has no formal education. I received a phone call from 770-464-2500 and when I called back, I talked to a 'Ms. Patterson' who wouldn't answer any questions, but was extremely rude and unprofessional and talking over me. I finally had to hang up on her because all she did was run her mouth. I suggest anyone having problems with this company to file a complaint with the Federal Trade Commission, which is what I am doing, and to write a letter (with return receipt so that the post office can verify they receive your letter) demanding that they stop contacting you. A company must cease harassing phone calls if you ask them to stop. Federal and state laws are there to protect you from collection fraud, dishonest collection firms, as well as to make sure you, as a consumer, are treated properly.
Now they are using a new twist. Got a letter from Georgia Check Recovery,
Stating that I wrote a bad check. They Give a check number with a date of more than a year ago, but they do not tell me what company they are representing. Also they claim that is the third notice, I never received a first or second notice. Doesnt leave anyone's name regarding this. I have worked with debt companies before and they always tell you who they are representing and a name of someone who is taking care of the case. Also I dont even have an amount on this letter. This is another trick to get money. I have to believe that it is related to all the calls from 678-954-6346. Tricky part of it is they used a real company. Although when I researched them www.gachecks.com, theres all this other stuff they deal with. When I put in check recovery in there search box, it just gives other companies to use. So something is not right.
Heres the address that they use on letter head:
Georgia check recovery
po box 45, 110 main st
Jersey, georgia 30018
18009800405
7704642500
I just find it funny because that other number 678-954-6346, was also out of Georgia.
This sent me a third notice letter as well. Big pile of BS. It looked like a shady piece of correspondance from the beggining. I called them and they told me I had a bad check from over 2 years ago.........I have never bounced a check. I called my bank, they confirmed the check that this company was referencing had indeed cleared my account two days after i wrote it.........this company is definetly a fraud and I have had to change all my account numbers b/c of this. They claim to be members of the better business bureau...........hmm more [***]. I am going to sue these crooks for everything they have.....
I just got one of these "incident" letters. The date they listed seemed strange...a few days before the birth of my frist child. So I started researching them. This totally bogus. My bank told me to disregard the notice b/c they didn't have any bounced checks on my account. They also suggested I contact the FCC with the info so they too could investigate. She said you never know what these crooks are using the money for i.e. terrorism funding. And she said to keep a close eye on my accounts and credit reports.
Called and left a message to call back. I called back and they did not have me in the system. The girl I spoke with tried for over 30 minutes to locate my information. Funny thing is that my debit card number had been used a few weeks before and I canceled the account. Luckily I didn't give them any information. They left the 770-464-2500 x 232 to call back at. However, the caller ID has another number on it.
