BMG Rights Management
reviews and complaints

I received a call today from a company claiming that their client - bmg payday is suing me for "check fraud against a financial institution" and they wanted to transfer me to their legal department. I said no and asked what it was about. I was told it was about a bmg payday loan. Never have I had a bmg payday loan. I refuse to be scammed and threatened into thinking that someone is suing me. This is a bogus complaint. The phone number that called me is [protected]. They are leaving me voice mail messages. They are also using my maiden name, and I have not gone by my maiden name for numerous years.

I had a 10 million dollar ticket they called me and ask me do i have the ticket i said yes they told me to tell them the numbers thats on the ticket i did and then they ask for my social security number and a credit card and said they will be taking taxes off.

I recently received email from the company BMG Customer Research Inc/Dennis Hawkins (Hunt). I worked for this company about 2 months, and they promised to pay per assignments. After I made several assignments, the agent with whom I spoke all the time, told me that they would pay at the end of the month. I still haven’t received money, and I wonder if someone had the same situation and can offer good solution. Thanks.

i was sent an email stating i did a pay day loan my information is in the email i called to speak to "attorney nicole willson" a mark twig answered with an accent from india i called the number he gave me [protected] a man answered with same accent wouldnt give information about company and wouldnt give contact information about nicole willson he told me to deal with mark twig and hung up on me.

Hi all,

I came across a job ad (secretary for Sony BMG UK's Chairman himself) in a popular job search engine in the country (Best Jobs Philippines) and sent my CV. Two days after, I got an appointment letter from them. I knew it was too good to be true because (1) the Chairman of Sony BMG UK himself emailed me and answered my queries (2) for a long term contract (5 years), there is no kind of interview (3) the salary and benefits is a dream come true, especially for a secretary's job--high salary, free accommodation, 4 vacations per year, three weeks per vacation!, and (4) the domain they used is not Sony BMG's. They sent the email address of the "Immigration Office" instructing me to forward my signed appointment letter to them and ask how I can obtain a UK work visa and clearance. The domain of the "Immigration Office" does not look like an official one either. I am certain, especially after reading threads of job offer scams here, that that is where they will attempt to cheat me of my money.

Of course I wanted to believe everything is true and luck just shone on me, but I wasn't born yesterday. I am alarmed however that since it is posted in our country's popular job search engine, that lots of my countrymen who are raring to leave the country and pursue dreams abroad, may fall into this trap. How can I warn them?

I have pasted and attached the emails they have sent just in case others have received the same and still wanting to believe it is true.

PS. I have used the scam-o-meter (is it right?) and have obtained from it that the domains are free web-based ones and the telephone number of the "Chairman" is a +44, a number that directs call to a mobile number.

Attorney nicole willson

I've recieved calls from three different debt recovery businesses, they are interchex systems (Will be refferred to as is) , greenberg wies & associates (Gwa) , and yesterday from cis. All three claims there is case against for a fraudulent payday loan is says titan group, gwa says mte financial, cis havent spoke to them as of yet, but i can imaigine the link between all three bmg payday loans. Is told me i took a payday loan back in march 2010, gwa says march 2009. Is has given me the runaround on hwen this date was, at one point it was march 20, '10, then it was april 9, 10, then yesterday morning it is now in march. The investigator (That is my next order of business) yesterday morning, said the april 9 date was for this year when the loan went over to titan, and he doesnt have the dte when the loan was taken originally (This guy is an investigator, uh huh) . Gwa was telling me that it was in march of this year, but quickly changd it to '09 when i told her i had info i can fax her stating i never recieved the loan. Also they have been sitting on this for two weeks, and they have to get it settled or go to cvourt.
Now i have piad all the pdl i owed last year when i recieved my severance package from my former employer. The bankaccount in question with these folks was closed and charged off due to nsf. I was asked if i had anything stating that they were paid off, i said no, i didnt thiunk somehting like this was going to come up. The lady at gwa got snotty with me on that one by saying yuouve several so this one slipped your mind. I have proof that some pdl were paid with my new account, howeve r it was through other debt recovery businesses and does not show who pdl place was. So all in all, to save arguement, i settlements with is and gwa. Now the investigator part, if these people are "investigators" why are they not investigating matters? If they realized bmg, mte and titan group are recieving complaints about fraudulent practices, they should look into that. Anyway, if anyone had to deal with these debt recovery places i mentioned here, let me know. Thank you! Lets beat those scammers!

These 3 companies are trying to scam me out of money, they are saying I owe money when I don't. Please help!

This company charges a $50 "registration fee" to non-union actors & ignore people who have managers, are members of the unions or have experience. Actors are "cast" in roles but the products are never filming.

The CEO, Bennie Barnes aka Bennie Balbonie wrote bad checks to a number of people, lied to a group of writers about the status of the shows and has made others write scripts for free. Employees have NOT been paid, investors have NOT been paid, no advertising has been done and no headshots have been given to actors.

He has NO FCC license, no contract w/Time Warner, Dish Network, DirecTV, Verizon Fios, Comcast or any other cable provider and no basic financial materials such as a business plan or an operating budget. I spoke to someone at WRNN & learned they have NEVER heard of the company.

Do not give money to this company as an actor or an investor unless you want to kiss it good-bye! You've been warned.

I recently pulled my credit report and as I was reviewing it I came across a collection for 158.00. from national credit debt collector for a company called bmg music I called them and told them i have never ordered anything from this company. They told me it was from 1995! Are you serious they waited 15 years to put this on my credit they put it on in feb, 2010. I told them I never ordered any cd's. I was told they had no contact info for bmg. I hung up and got on line to find bmg services and what i found out is every number listed has been disconnected! Melissa Akron, Ohio

About 5 months ago I was contacted by ncs out of no where and said I had a account in negative from 12/2008 and that I ordered dvds and never paid. I almost dropped dead in my seat. I never have ever opened nor had a bmg music account in my life and they were saying it was mine in which I denied. Then I called bmg music and they said it was under investigation and that they were going to remove it from my credit and make sure it gets taken care. I did not pay much attention to it for about 5 months until two days ago. When national credit solutions called my phone and said I had a new bmg music account from 6 years ago now? I told the guy about what happened 5 months ago and did not know what happened and he almost mocked me. I dont understand? If I talked to ncs 5 months ago why did they not bring the debt from 6 years ago? And from 12/2008?
These people are are scammers and if this has happened to you please file compaints with the federal trade commission and the attorney general within your state and within oklahoma and new york.

BMG has warranted a lot of complaints. I think that this is because mail-order contracts are binding and can get you with tricky stipulations and mail-order transactions are also a lot more susceptible to fraud.

I have heard bad things about NCS but I can tell you from personal experiences that they are not a scam/fraud. They worked with me and listended. They were not able to settle on some of my accounts but were able to on others. And like promised my credit was cleared.

It sometimes takes some investigation and asking questions to really verify that the debt is yours, at first I did not remember doing ANY business with BMG but then I realized that they aquired Columbia House and I might have ordered one or two CD's from them a loooong time ago.

Anyways the best advice I have for you is to go through the process and be patient. Request verification and file a dispute. If you can prove that it is not yours then they are willing to close the account in other situations you just have pay in full or ask for a settlement. They were very understanding when I spoke with them on the phone and I called in a time or two to make sure they were updating my Credit and they always did in a timely manner.

I also set up an automatic withdrawal with them and they were very trustworthy. they sent me notices before they took anything and they always took the right amount and didn't take advantage of having access to my banking information. I was actually pleasantly suprised with all my interactions with them.

Have any questions let me know.

I received a durogotory listing on my credit report for non-payment of an alledged $229 overdue for CDs from BMG from 2004. Who keeps checking or credit card records for five years? Why didn't BMG contact me at all during that period? When I wrote to BMG, they informed me that I have a $0 balance. Thus, the dispute with National Credit Solutions begins.

My credit ratings with the three agencies range from 763 to 802. I just refinanced my mortgage at 4.375% which would be impossible if I had a history of late payments.

This company is not professional at all! I called this company several times for services and got over charged. I bought a 10 min call which is according to their website 21.90 and somehow got charged over 40 dollars every time I called. I had called about 5 times that month and was over charged by more than 100 dollars. I called the line about it to get it fixed and they told me that I would be receiving a cal from the owner. A gal called me saying her name was annabelle and then saying her name was brandi telling me that I bought 20 mins each time I called, used 20 mins, and she wasn't going to give me a refund because of I had 'buyers remorse' as she calls it. I wasn't asking for a refund of all my money, just the money that I was over charged. She was very rude about it, telling me that she had reports saying that I asked for the 20 mins and used all 20 mins each time I called, when I tried to tell her I didn't and tell her to give me the money back that was over charged she refused. I charged back the money because she refused to give me a refund of the money that was over charged and then the next thing I know I call another service and they say that the owner of dbmg technologies has blocked me and sent my name/address/phone number/ and credit card information to all the other phone companies out there. So now I can't use any service. I did a search on the company in google and found this website with a girl who had complained about the company not paying her so I thought I would go ahead and make a report to. It's not worth calling this company, it just isn't. They are rude when they are the ones making the mistake and they don't correct it. When I had to charge back the money that was over charged I was the one who paid for it in the end with everyone in the business knowing my name and information. they even called and talked to my wife. This company states that they are discrete but they are not discrete at all, now my wife knows about it, and so does every other phone company out there and probably their employees as well.

I received a phone call from a collection agency saying that I owed money to BMG Music. The name on the "account" was my married name "Seratt". That has not been my last name in about 5 years. The man on the phone could barely speak english and i don't think he could really understand what i was trying to explain to him.
