SRA Associates harassing calls

Personnel from SRA Associates (apparently a collection agency based in Bridgeton, NJ - (856) 497 - xxxx number) have been ringing my phone off the hook for weeks looking for somebody I don't know. When I explain that they have the wrong number, they continue to question me.

And the calls keep coming. Associates are quite rude, but typical for the business. Losers that can not find jobs elsewhere because of their *** personalities. The FCC regulates this type of use and needs to fine or take their phone service away from them.

Please stop these jerks from harassing the innocent law abiding citizen.

i received a call on my home number from them, and before they explained what it is they were even calling about the guy asked for my address, and my SSN. When I asked who he was and why he was calling, he responded with "I can't disclose that information until you give me the required information." Like WTF??? i had to google the number to find out who they were, cause i sure as *** didnt give that dude my personal info. Turns out my ex still owes money on a car and because i was a co-signer they are calling me. bottom line they are unprofessional, rude, and just flat out *** I will be contacting the BBB and filing a claim on them.

Under the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act, the only purpose debt collectors may call someone other than you is to determine your location which under the law means your address and telephone number both at home and at work. If they already have this information, then a debt collector is not legally allowed to call anyone other than you regarding the debt.

If you have debt collectors calling people other than you, then the debt collector may be in violation of the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act.

To resolve this issue, the first step would be to file a complaint with the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau. The Complaint form can be found here: http://www.consumerfinance.gov/Complaint/#debt-collection

After filing a Complaint, the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau will investigate the issue and if it finds any instances of wrongdoing, it may take enforcement actions against the debt collector which may include fines.

What you are describing is conduct that violates the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act (FDCPA). You should contact an attorney and sue.

COLLECTION CLAIM

I received a notice from SRA that they are working on behalf of Hyundai to collect a disposition fee and excess wear and tear for years I have done business with Lester Glenn Hyundai and have never had this issue when exchanging one lease with another when I called SRA associates and poke to their agent she got very short and abrupt told me they sent me detailed descriptions of excess wear and tear and pictures which I never did receive when I turned in car dealership never said anything about wear and tear and there was no excessive wear and tear on vehicle the finance agent said they would take care of disposition fee as they have done in the past. I do not need to be harassed by these agencies

I spoke to an employee at SRA, Tina Kicucci. She was one of the rudest people I've ever come in contact with.

I insisted on talking to her supervisor who was much more pleasant. I told him what happened and he said he would address it "accordingly." I'm not sure I believe that.

I will never lease another Hyundai again.

Representative was extremely rude. Right off te back he waa confrontational and called himself Mr. Chase and never identified where he was calling from. He asked me to verify my info.

This individual was rude. I wanted to l ow where he was calling from and asked to identify himself to which he replied when u called back the automated system answered that for you. He asked me to verify zip code and other non sense to what i refuse. He proceeded to talk down at me and i finally told him that if he needs to get in touch w me to do it by mail. I refuse to deal with this idiotic company! If they are trying to collect somethig i dont even k ow what they r talking about.

Female called was rude and. Demanding money in two days, or was going in my credit report.

We said willing to make monthly payments which I didn't have the amount she requested. I'm retired and didn't have the amount she wanted us to pay.

But she insisted that we pay a certain amount and wouln't reason about the amount we could afford paying her monthly she said she was going to hang up on me, I told not to hang up I wanted to settle this. I would like your company to be more professional and work with people with the amount they could afford monthly not demanding what they want.

Maybe you need to file bankruptcy....Chapter 7 is liquidation but the judge will not let you keep the car. Chapter 13 is re-org, but you still will have to make monthly payments, and if you do not, you will no longer be under bankruptcy protection...just give the car back....

Guest

They are suppose to be rude when they have to look for their property.I bet if these people turn your--- in for vehicle thief then you will be looking like the low life that you are.Give the people their vehicle if you cannot pay for it and Stop bring your friends and Family into this mess you have made.If you where in Texas believe me they would have been and Got your sorry --- along time ago.F------ LOSER.

SRA

For over 2 years at least 2 times a month I would receive a call from these morons. About 3 / 4 months ago I spoke with them on their last (I was hoping very last) call and told them to remove my number from their calls I haven't seen nor heard from the person for at least a decade. 716-204-**** - SRA Associates - Collection Agency - Harassing.. They are looking for someone I haven't seen nor heard from in at least a decade.. But do you think that gets through to their thick skulls? No.. first they have to get their heads out of their ***

SRA Associates! You have the wrong number!!!

These people call up to 10 times daily, starting at 7am! For different people! I have told them each time they have the wrong number and to remove my number from their files. Yet they continue to call. I just called my home phone provider and blocked the number, but the rep just said they would call from a different one! I will be blocking each and every one they call from though! So tired of the BS! SRA ***'s, if you are reading this....Linda Sparrow, Betty Scratch, or Steven Alderman, doesn't live at the number you keep calling!. I mean seriously, are they even real names? Sparrow? Scratch? Do a little research to find their phone numbers, if they exist that is and quit calling my phone! ***

SRA ASSOCIATES

SRA Assoc. has been calling daily. The caller ID on my phone has categorized them as "suspected spam" so I haven't answered. They never leave a message. I got fed up with the calls and today I finally called them back today to find out what was going on. Turns out they're a debt collection company looking for someone else. They *said* they'd remove my number but I guess only time will tell. If my number is not removed, I will be filing a complaint with the Better Business Bureau and the Federal Do Not Call List.

I have been getting calls from this Company for months off and on. They do not answer when I pick up the phone, they don't leave messages, they call all day long at varying hours. They are generally annoying and harassing the *** out of me.

If you find a way to keep these people from calling, please let me know. I have tried everything, but nothing works.

I block every number they call from, but as soon as they realize this, they call from a different one. I am up to 6 numbers blocked for them. "asking" them to remove your number is useless....they just keep calling!

None of the people they call for even live here! :(

Beware of this Slimy Company

For a year and a half, SRA has tried to convince me that I owe over $1,500 to a creditor that I paid off in August, 2010. They have continued to harrass me although I told them I will not pay money that I do not owe. One of their employees who is particularly rude and unprofessional really enjoys her collections work and is quite irritating. She cannot produce any documents demonstrating that I owe money to SRA but she believes that she can scare me into paying. I advise everyone who has been contacted by this company to make certain that you have a legitimate debt before accepting the word of employees at SRA. They ARE liars.

Harassing calls

Call every other day about an account that I have never had, or even owned a laptop. Tried to tell them, it's not mine, to take me to court, but instead , they just keep calling from early in the morning til 9 at night. Very rude people, won't listen to what you have to say, just keep telling me I owe $1200 for laptop I have never bought or seen. Even talk or tell whoever answers the phone what they are calling about, guess they have never heard of the "privacy act", fixing to find out what it means !!!!!!

These people call my home at least 5 times a day asking for a Latoya. Both myself and my husband have told them multiple times that we do not know a Latoya and to please stop calling. Of course they get very defensive and say that we are lying and telling us that we have to be them. We keep telling them that if we know who this chick was we'd gladly give them the information. Then they tell us the'll remove our number but shocker of all shockers, the very next day they are calling us again.

There has to be something that we can do to go after these people! We just received the number in July 2011 after moving to this town.

The next time they call us we'll be filing a complaint against them with our State and with the FCC.. Enough is enough!

SRA calls a wrong number and person day and night to harrass me.

This is a deadbeat company with people who do not listen and could not find there *** with both hands. They have been calling every phone number we have listed in search of someone that does not have the same name as me and who has not association with me. They just Robo call all hours of the day and night. Someone should put these people out of business. This is a company that has no moral fiber, and anyone that works for them has got to be a slimmy dead beat. The need to get a real job and life.

in reply to item numbered 2 above, the sra employee suggested one call the BBB. in fact the BBB is not an impartial third party, check where they receive financing and their rules to end customer complaints I would suggest using your state sources such as att generals office of consumer complants they are much better.

Guest

These people call 7 days a week at all hours for my ex-husband's ex-wife's bills. What kind of mess is that? He has never lived with me at my current address or used my current phone number and she lives in another state.

Guest

as an employee of said collection agency I must say that they are infact not a deadbeat organization... infact ive worked for several agencies and out of them this one goes above and beyond the state and federal laws...

i urge you to check the rating on the BBB and compare it to other agencies nationwide... you'd be surprised...

Guest

I don't think they are actually a dead-beat comapny by any means. Here's why....DELL Financial is not a scam/dead-beat company.

I defaulted on a loan to DELL computers when I lost my job. I wanted to pa-off this loan now that I am emploed, so I called DELL in an attempt to do this.

Needless to sy the account had already gone to collections, so the representative from DELL transferred me to the company handling my account, and the company they sent me to was SRA. They were very nice, and worked with me to get it resolved.

Violation of SCRA 50 U.S.C App 527

SRA Associates just recently called me and informed my wife that my SCRA porotection ended in 2/2010. However under Title 10 orders as an Activated Reservist until I get off Title 10 orders I am still protected under the SCRA.

The issue started back in 2008 when Chrysler repossed my vehicle illegally according to the 50 U.S.C statutes which stated they must have a court order. This all stemmed from me being injured in the line of duty and having my pay messed up for about a year. Chrysler was notified on all the issues that had occured yet they accelerated the notes and did a repo without the court order. The military acknowledged their mess up and accepted responsibility in writing sent to Chrysler.

Other than being an injured soldier which had issues beyond his control my J.A.G office did send correspondence to Chrysler about the 50 USC 527 statutes and Chrysler never responded. Now I get a call from SRA Associates claiming to be a law firm and threatening court action unless we come up with this exorbent sum of money.

The issues with this whole case are.

1) Claiming to be a law firm calling from a number that cannot be called back on.

2) Violation of the SCRA Soldier Civil Relief Act 50 USC 527 Federal Law codes.

3) Stating my protection under the SCRA has ended when they do not know the facts. Any Reservist under Title 10 order whether Conus or OConus is techinically deployed.

4) Stating that my J.A.G officer would collaberate that my protection has ended when I just talked to them last week about the case and they stated its still enforced.

5) Claiming that the originel lender does not have to respond to correspondence from the lendee when it referrs to their account on both a Federal and Civil level. The original lender being Chrysler financial.

6) Being made aware that I have retained an attorney in pursuit of legal action against Chrysler for violation of Federal law. With knowledge that they could be brought into the law suit for harrasment.

7) Refusing to further acknowledge the law and enforce the SCRA code in conjunction with the interest reduction to 6% pursuant to the Federal code. Instead kept it at the 18% once they "defaulted" my loan without the court order knowing several issues occured beyond my control and the military acknowledged they had made the mess up in writing.

And I suppose you listen in on all your fellow employees' phone calls? Otherwise, how would you know what they claim?? You just underlined everything people are saying about your company's employees being rude and inconsiderate.

SRA harassment

SRA, a debt collection agency, continues to harass us over a 5 year old claim against our son who moved out years ago. He signed for a girlfriend to purchase a new car.

His credit was immediately turned down but the Chrysler dealer sold the car to the girl anyway. She made only one payment and the car was repossessed. Collections agencies immediately descended upon our unemployed, student son.

Our attorney says that not only has the statute of limitations run out on this debt but that our son was NEVER liable for it. We are preparing to sue them now.

To all you people being harassed or threaten by a law suit from this *** company I advise you not to engage in any conversation with them. In my case they threaten to sue me on a debt that was seven years old.

Every state has a statute of limitations in CA its 4 years so if someone sue you in CA for an old debt you must respond and turn in a form to the court and state as an affirmative defense its past the statue of limitation.

But if you make so much as a tiny payment to this *** you have reset the statute of limitation and can be sued or if you say the wrong thing on the phone you could get sued. They mostly pursue zombie debt

Best solution never talk to them and look up your state's statute of limitations for debt

Guest

Get a clue. Your son signed the contract he is liable!
