Rude, harassment, illegal threats!
Complaint Rating:  100 % with 2 votes
I have received calls from ER Solutions on several occasions regarding a credit card account that they are supposedly collecting for. These people are rude, brash, harassing, threatening, etc... I felt threatened and harassed. They scared me! This is illegal!!

I made arrangements to make payments to pay off this account. The lady that I talked to said that she would call me back when I acquired the money to make a large payment for the full pay off amount. I told her that I could not afford that amount but that I could make payments. She stated that she would call me back at a later time to see if I had acquired the funds for this large pay off amount. She called me back a couple week later and stated that I did not make payments "as agreed". We had no agreement. I did not even have an address to send the money to. I contacted the credit card and they stated that this account is still open.

OMG what a fraud!!!

I feel everyone that is posting this complaints are just ashamed that they have an accnt in collections. Come on now nobody perfect, the collection efforts being used are strictly for collection purposes!!! I used to work for er solutions, the people we would call would be rude right off the bat!!! Most people don't get they get paid to do that, and when they call they don't ask for your ss#!!! They ask for the person they are calling for and ask to verify the last 4 numbers of the ss# on the account before they can release any information!!! I know this cause its what i went through... its not their fault people order things or use a service that they cant pay for. As for setting up arrangements they try to get you set up on the best possible way to resolve the account in a reasonable amount of time... before the accounts are sent to collections each company gives you time to pay the account before it reaches any collection agency, it is not anyone fault but that persons that the account is not paid. I hope those who read understand the side of the so called "bad guys" because they are just doing their job.

What people need to understand is this... when you fall behind on your bills, credit companies refer information about your situation to collection agencies. Some, if not most, of these collection companies hire INMATES (people in actual prisons) to call you and assist in collecting past due payments for credit cards, auto loans, credit loans, etc.... Companies hire these inmates because it is EXTREMELY cheap labor. This could possibly explain the rudeness and unprofessional behaviour - after all the people who are calling you are inmates and probably have just enough experience to make a phone call - and that's it. I'm willing to bet that most of the people who are calling you haven't even received any extensive training in customer service or even collections for that matter. Now I say all of this to say that I don't know for sure if ER Solutions is one of the companies that uses inmates for their collection calls, all I am saying is that it could be possible. My advice is the next time anyone receives a call from this company or any collection company that they don't want to deal with simply hang up or better yet ask them one of two questions, "when is your release date" or "have you had any interesting Rendezvous lately". This will either piss them off or make them extremely embarrassed. On the other hand, if ER Solutions is simply out to collect personal information from individuals for criminal activity then obviously this is wrong. In either situation DO NOT GIVE OUT YOUR PERSONAL INFORMATION. If the companies are truly legit they should already have some, if not all, of your personal information. Just hang up the phone. If they keep calling you back keep hanging up. Eventually, they will get tired.

As I'm sure the guy who worked for ER Solutions is aware (and this applies to 99% of collection agencies), they "buy" these debts from companies at 50% of their value and then attempt to collect the full debt that was owed to the company. I hardly think this justifies rude collection tactics. And I am always pleasant to deal with on the phone until somebody calls me names and tells me I'm "worthless." You gotta have a pretty low self esteem to even work for a collection agency with these practices.

when I got the call it was a on credit card that was less than $200.00 I know because I used the card one time. and only becaused I got like 20% off. and I had it paid down to like 100.00 I had to go through chemo and radiation. I was off work for a year and had forgot all about this account. now 9 year later I get a call from E R solutions . saying I owed 365.00I was willing to make arrangments with these people because I am still paying off Dr. and hospital bills. she wanted my checking account number over the phone for the agreed 40.00 . I told her to send me a bill because I would not give my account number out. well I never got the bill, and she called me back a week later. My husband works 3 shift, and they were calling like 6 to 10 times a day . I would come home and call them back, only to get a recorded message saying leave your name and phone number. I would, and no one would ever call me back . next day 6 more calls . when I did talk to this same lady again, I gave her my debit card number for a one time payment of 40.00 . two weeks later she called and said she wanted march payment of 40.00 I told her I had made that payment a couple weeks ago, she said no it was Feb. so I ok that payment on march 26 of 2008 . I went on line to see when I made the first payment and guess what it was march 3 2008 . now April 2008 I still haven't gotten anything in the mail . I go online to see if a checked had cleared into my bank account . and see a payment of 40.00 had been taken out. I call for over a week and no one would return my call . so I left a message that if they want the payment they better return my call . she did call me back wanting another payment. I told her she had taken the payment with out my permission . she said I see you ok the payment. I told her the last time I spoke with her was March 26. and she said yes. I ask when did I tell you to go into my bank account and take another 40.00 out. she said march 26. I called my bank and told them to put a block on my card. I also told her I was calling better business and reporting it. well it was on Friday and they were closed . But I am calling monday.and E R Solutions will never get another penny from me. I even knew that they couldn't collect on a debt over 7 year ago . But I knew I owed 200.00 and she said the rest was on a late charge and collection fees. so the 120.00 that I have paid is the last they get from me.
