Credit card Communication tactics Threatened to take legal action Illinois
I called your agency to inquire about possible payment plans and settlements available to me in regards to the unpaid debt. I was very professional and I explained my situation to the agent as to the reason why I had not paid the bill. The agency started off professional but the changed once I started asking additional questions about possible payment arrangement/settlements. When I did n't agree to what she was saying she started to get very forceful and aggressive trying to bully me into making a payment. I let her know that I was a - and that I know we could make other arrangements instead of the five year agreement she tried to get me to sign. She refused saying that 's not possible now. She continued to become more harassing. She stated she was going to tell your agency that I was refusing to make a payment. I told her no I did not say that I was simply trying to see what I was going to do. She continued to lay into me stating make a payment sarcastically, then
I advised the agent that I was going to end the telephone call because I was not going to continue to let her speak to me in that manner. I do n't know what type of business you are running but her agent is violating the Fair Debt Credit Laws. A copy of this letter will be forwarded to them in regards to this matter. I called you because I know I owe the money and I am currently paying off other debts. My intention was to work towards paying this one. Your company is the rudest company I ever worked with and I would not use your company at my -. I will make sure that I spread the word. You do n't have to be rude to people because the owe money ; thing happen and people are placed in certain situations ; in most cases it 's out of their control. As a collector, your agents should understand that and become better listeners than screamers.
