RMA - anyone had any dealings

[Perdita]

Just had a call (at work) from these people wanting me to confirm address etc (which I wouldnt and she got very peeved)

Just wondered who they are and who they work for if anyone knows or has had any dealings with them

Thanks

Personally, I haven't, but treat them the same as any DCA. IN WRITING ONLY!

 

Next time they call you at work tell the that and that you're going to report them to the police for harassment at your place of work.

Perdita They are a Debt Collection Agency I had delaings with them over an alleged American Express Card

Hi Perdita, RMA stands for Risk Management Alternatives and as Nornirongirl said, they are indeed a debt collection agency. I have had dealings with them and have to agree with Babybear and refuse to deal with them in any way other than by letter. Also it may be an idea to keep a log od ANY calls they make to you as they can be rather persistent and often unpleasant. If you search these forums for RMA you will find many examples of their conduct. Calling you at work is completely unacceptable and harrassing behaviour. Do not tolerate it

yes, they were trying to collect an alleged B/Card debt. I communicated only in writing, made a CCA request which they could not fufill. They referred the matter to two sets of solicitors (who shared the same address in Kingston -Upon- Thames!!) and I heard nothing from them when I took up the CCA argument. In the end RMA gave up and returned the alleged debt to B/Card.

They also work on behalf of MBNA.

Yes MBNA set them on me too! ! They telephoned me ten times at work in one day !They also send lovely postcards threatening to pay you a call!implying they are going to pay you a visit! at your home! but dont worry they dont! They mean that they are going to phone you but want you to think it is a home visit just to frighten and intimidate you.One lady here said she has a drawer full of these lovely postcards from them but no one has ever turned up at her door!Never talk to them on the phone ive never answered their calls and put phone down on them if i think it is them!Apparently they have beeen really insulting and verbally abusive to some people who are on this forum ,I am going to send them a telephone harresment letter by registered mail to try and stop them making these calls to my work place and home,

They rang and texted my wife to her mobile phone. No idea where they got her name or number from as she is not named on my MBNA card, but she told them several times where they could go. They have never tried to phone me (luckily) which I find very stange. Get lots of nice letters and postcards from them though

[Perdita]

ive now sent them a cca request and telephone harrasment letter but they persist in calling me at work despite me telling them i am recording and refusing to go through security

Thanks to this forum I dont get intimidated anymore and actually enjoy "playing" with them as well as others!

[tor1977]

I'm really glad you are not letting them get to you Perdita. Wish they still called me, after I CCA'ed them they have run away and hid. I got to almost enjoy the round in circles security question thing.I told one of them that I wouldn't go through security because I thought he was stood really a stalker that was stood in a telephone box across the road from my house and told him I was waving at him through the window. LOL

RMA/NCO Preston are not the easiest nut to crack, but they will crack eventually.

 

It took me nearly 8 months to get shut of them with the help of Trading Standards.

 

Don't even consider calling them on the phone or even attempt to speak to them if they call you, unless you are very determined not to let them get to you.

 

There are arrogant, rude and down right insulting, they will make you feel like a criminal.

 

Don't answer any security questions and put the phone down. I know they are a nusence ringing all the time, but better that than speaking to them believe me.

 

If you dispute what the are claiming write to them once and once only, they never reply to any letters they are sent so its a waste of time sending them.

 

Sent the one letter disputing their claim by special delivery ( you have proof they got it then), not recorded as they never sign for them either and leave it at that.

 

I spent a fortune on postage writing to these idiots and never recieved one reply.

 

If they become too much contact your own branch of trading standards and also Steve Brimble at Preston Trading standard office, he has a drawful of complaints about this outfit. They should be closed down.
