I would like to file a complaint about the very unprofessional person who came to serve me what I considered to be a very illegal complaint. She very loudly knocked on my door, screaming out my name and shouting out very private, personal information on me. I live in an apartment complex with other apartments very close to mine and this woman kept repeating my name, saying she was here to collect on a debt and that she was going to embarrass me and give out personal information if I didn't answer the door. I had no idea who she was, she was in plain clothes, not in any uniform so I didn't open my door to her.

She then began shouting out my name and my complete social security number several times which I am sure my neighbors were able to hear. She then went away and later came back doing the same thing, shouting out my complete name and social security number. She shouted out that she was not going away until she embarrassed me enough to get me to open the door because she knew I was in there. The complaint she served did not have the appearance of an official complaint - no court record number on it and no official seal to indicate that an official complaint had been filed against me. I was scared and embarrassed and tried to contact the company.

They sounded very unprofessional - answering the phone by saying "Hello" and not giving any official name of the company. I was very suspicious but in my fear and not wanting a judgment to be signed against me, I sent a letter advising that I wanted to work out a payment plan which I did last August 2009 and have been paying $150 a month on this debt, that was written off by Citibank several years ago. I am still very suspiciou of this company and its collection practices and so finally decided to search on complaints on it and came across this website. I would like you to please look into the very unprofessional and unconscienable collection practices of this company. I would be happy to testify in any action you bring against this company, Liberty Acquisition.

We got a summons as well from them. Answered it and now they are sending us threatening letters of of 10 days default with the courts. Who says" we have a pre paid envelope ready to mail to file with courts"? These people are accusing my wife and I of a debt we have no knowledge of or cannot find any traction of in our records. I am going to call the court and see if the summons is even real at this point. We answered it and filed it with the court and they are acting like we didn't do this which leads me to believe there is no summons filed at the court against us. Plus, I cannot find this attorney on the Oregon bar site, its illegal to practice law in different states without being legal attorney here. Bloodsucking ###...

If you receive a summons from this company, CALL THE COURT. They tried to fleece me out of over $1700. I checked with the court. No summons was listed and there was no court date set for a hearing. They are horrible people who try to toss around fancy phrases to make them sound legit.

November 1, 2013, I just returned from court with Liberty Acquisitions, LLC. They served me with papers in June 2013 on a debt from 2005. Prior to being served I had never been contacted regarding this debt by the original creditor or otherwise. I contacted their office immediately and spoke with a representative. The Statute of Limitations is 6 years on a promissory note or contract in my state and the statute starts running on the date of first delinquency. I promptly told the representative that I was disputing the debt and that the statute had run out and therefore their lawsuit was frivolous. The representative tried to convince me that the contract renewal date was the date of last activity which would make the statute still active. In my opinion just like so many Debt Dealers out there they rely on your lack of knowledge to bilk you out of your money. Most people ignore the notices and wont file a response in court and that is exactly what they count on! You just made them easy money. They get a judgement and then they garnish your accounts etc! In my case I filed an answer to their complaint within 30 days of service and received a notice of pretrial. I contacted them one last time to inform them it was my intent to sue for violations of the FDCPA if they continued to pursue this matter, it seemed to land on deaf ears. However, to my surprise when I went to court today, no one seemed to have my file. When we finally located the Ryan Bolander, Esq., and his assistant I come to find out that they had filed a dismissal with the court on September 6, 2013 and closed out my file. Apparently it must have slipped their minds to contact me about it. Sadly, I wont be able to nail them with a lawsuit for violating the FDCPA, it would have been the easiest $1, 000.00 I would have ever made. But the good thing is that someone in their office had a vision of clarity and decided to dismiss the lawsuit. PLEASE PEOPLE, DON'T LET THESE JERKS RAILROAD YOU! ANYTIME YOU ARE SERVED WITH PAPERS, ANSWER THE COMPLAINT! Most courts have Mediators or Pro Bono attorneys that will help you negotiate payments or under certain circumstance like in my case have it dismissed.

They told us we had to pay $150., but we did not sign an agreement, so the more they threatened us the less we paid. We always send the payment now of $20. certified and they have to sign a receipt that they received it, if they refuse, than the money they say we owe, is paid in full. They said they sent us a paper to fill out, but we never received that paper, and we were out of state, so we could not do anything about it anyway. They went to court and said the amount we owed was $294.95 and the court fees were $796.63. Then they filed a judgement on us to fill out the information they wanted and threatened to take our property and autos, and garnish our wages and bank accounts. We have all the copies that they sent us, and they said whatever they can get their hands on to pay this amount they are saying we owe.. But get this we received a letter from them that we now owe first amount being $1, 910. in full as a settlement. Then they said we were going to pay $150. a month till paid in full, and the amount is now $1, 671.54. They ordered us to also pay $300.00 down, then we would owe $150. a month until paid, and the total amount would be $1, 975.37. Then they told us you don't have to call us anymore, you can just give us your bank account number and we will take it automatically out of your account. But we don't call them to pay the payment we always send the money certified. To get this updated, they tricked us into the judgement and paying the $300.00. The original date was 2004, and US Bank out of Greeley, Colo. filed bankrupcty, and it's just a matter of time, before I come across the papers that stated that the bank paid us the money for charges of fees, somebody else was using our account number and running us out of our money. The bank was suppose to waive the bank fees, at least. Now they are trying to collect on what they agreed to help us with. They have all these lawyers- Brian R. Becker, Heather Kelley, Karen Kelly-Braem, Rob Busch, these are the attorney's for the Plaintiff. And the funny thing about it I spoke to a Christine, but she did not give me her last name. And a County Court Judge's name is Christine A. Carney and I have never received a judgement like this, she signed her name above the typed written name in the right hand corner of the court order.They said they sent their first papers in 2010, but we never received any papers thru the mail, because we had to get a P.O. Box for our mail, because people were stealing our mail out of the mail box, at our house. And the box is padlocked.( Always pay these type of people certified). And with a copy of their letter they sent, stating the amount they are trying to collect from you. When I called again a man answered and when I told him the amount they were asking for, he laughed, and said I can't believe their asking that amount of money, when the amount you owe is only $294.95. And the bill was way back in 2004. We don't owe this amount and with that $300. down the amount they say we owe should already be paid. They still threaten us, we keep all the letters from Liberty Aquisitions (Liquid aquistions), just in case. I believe they could be the ones that have this complaint page on the internet. Signed: Being cheated and threatened in Colorado.

I have paid my debt in full, they send no receipt, no acknowledgment that they got any payment. I paid them $2000 . Now they send me a letter that I am going to be arrested because I owe $84.75 so they put out a warrant. Why didn't they include the $84.75 the first time. I have no explanation as to what the $84.75 is for, maybe someone needs gas money! Seems like they are grasping!
