Hey sweetie, call your state Banking and Insurance. Tell them exactly what happened. File a formal complaint. Also, call legal aide on the whole house thing. There may be special programs where you could refinance and have a much smaller monthly mortgage. Tell the people at Banking and Insurance what a puke this lady was and everything else you can think of. Good luck.

First find out where the call came from.
Honestly, the "bill collector" did nothing wrong. I will state again, I am one. So, I think it is amazing all the things being said about collectors. Bad things happen to good people...but there is still $ due to our clients and it is established from the collector to get their client's money back. You may be stressed and not appreciate the general tactics of a bill collector. Be upset with your situation NOT a person trying to get unpaid balances. AGAIN, I am sorry the person seemed abusive in your eyes. But, suggesting you sell assets to make proceeds to pay a past due bill is NOT being rude. Calling your State's Banking and Insurance deparment will not do a thing. There were no laws broken. I am sorry you are in the situation you are in. But, you need to start dealing with the situation in order to come out of it. As some suggested turning off the phone etc...you ignoring the problem doesn't make it go away. You could have a suit filed against you and be summons to appear in court etc. Better to deal with it as best as possible!

Ya know, I think it is really sad that your brother took his life.
Let's NOT blame a "rude bill collector" or anyone else. I think if you honestly think a bill collector has enough power to have someone take their life then you are in lala land. Christ, we are people too. Maybe I should take my life because you are being rude about bill collectors??? Nuff said!!!

If you hound a mentally ill person suffering from depression. IMO..indirect responsibility ensues.

On another note I do know bill collectors are just doing their jobs BUT I did not authorize the use of my checking account..she had the numbers to it from once before when I paid...TRUST me on this I deal with GMAC and so on and NEVER had someone be like this..she WAS abusive...tone of voice saying I was a liar when I said I didnt have a savimgs account...(I swear to God I don't) just so much I do not want to post on a public forum I do not want anyone to fix this for me...I have worked and thoght and dealt with this issue since things went from bad to worse...cannot get a loan because....I brng in 1700.00 a month ALMOST 1600.00 goes RIGHT to my medical insurance ..which leaves less than 150.00 a month for EVERYTHING ELSE...In order to refinace I have to have the means to pay it.... so anyways I do have to run and I thank you all but please dont get mad at one another over this ![]() I do not think bill collecrors are suppose to use you checking info without your ok nor should they say...you didnt apply for this and that...cause..I did..Like I said I dont want to detail it all but I would be thrilled if she got called on the carpet I dont want anyone to lose their job...but this whole thing was......just mean on her part and illegal in some cases ![]() ![]()

Sleeps,
I'm sorry you had to put up with someone so rude. You're right. She was mean. Sounds like she didn't have an ounce of compassion and she wasn't very HONEST. Sigh. |

I am not referring to you Sleeps.
But other people here keep pounding on collectors.... And, they are lumping all collectors in the ugly pot that says they are rude, abusive, make people kill themselves etc. By the way, my name is NOT SaraJane??? Not sure how you got that.

Again, it wasn't you Sleeps.
But, as people are siding here on this post with one another about how ugly bill collectors are...and I have mentioned I am one...it is like they are bashing me. So, I am sorry my sensitivity and anger are coming out. Just wish some people would take responsibility for things and that they weren't so "general" in their comments. Just like you feel stung from ONE person @ your mtg company, I feel stung from comments being thrown out here. Again, not from you.

I am so sorry this happened to you. Unfortunatly, these companies do give two shits about what is going on in our personal lives. They just want their money. I can only imagine how violated you must have felt. I am very sorry. Please pm me if you need anything. I mean anything OK. Luv, Jen |

Sleeps,
You only agreed to the check under duress. You didn't say, "Oh please, take the money out of my checking account." I just started reading this thread. Somebody else, may already have addressed this. Can you call a bankrupcy attorney? EJ |
