creditcardcory Posted December 10, 2004 Report Share Posted December 10, 2004 I've been sending all these Certified letters and its been costing me $4.42/letter x 13 letters = $57.46. I was just turned on to RPost, a registered email service that is through the USPS. It cost me $0.87/email(letter) and I sent 10 ($8.70) and I didn't have to wait days for my receipt to be mailed back to me, I already have receipts from two CA's that they have received it and I sent it about an hour ago.This thing is great so I wanted to share it here. I have a value code that I found, it's leigh that waives the installation charge. Its at www.rpost.com then go to sign up.Is there any way I could post this on all the credit repair forums without cut and paste?Good luck.

miracle Posted December 10, 2004 Report Share Posted December 10, 2004 That is a great idea.So sounds like we need to start making a running list of email addys. Would these hold up in court as well? Thanks for letting us know about this service. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
creditcardcory Posted December 10, 2004 Author Report Share Posted December 10, 2004 They will totally hold up in court. I looks like it is used by most, if not all government agencies. The following is a quick cut and paste from their site:RPost Registered e-Mail reduces business risk by increasing accountability for important electronic communications. Unlike traditional Internet e-mail, Registered e-Mail provides the e-mail sender legal proof the e-mail was sent, legal proof of the delivery and verifiable proof of the content of that e-mail. This proof is in the form of an electronic receipt, which is returned to the sender in a counterfeit-proof form and can be authenticated at any time.

Recovering Attorney Posted December 11, 2004 Report Share Posted December 11, 2004 The requirements of the FDCPA are that your dispute/objection/whatever be in writing. It does not say it has to be sent CMRRR. We do not use this program in the large State agency I work for. Most of our notice mandates require use of the US Mail, so this service would do us no good.

FlaDave Posted December 11, 2004 Report Share Posted December 11, 2004 Sounds good! But I believe there is nothing better than a warmbody stamping or singing the green cards..Costs them a few bucks to have this person. With e-mail it maybecome automated and they can always say we had a glitchand did not really get it open to view it.. I look at it as I'm geeping a few people employed even ifit's a low wage they are getting... I wonder how many greencards they get a day?I can scan e-mails real fast!! but opening up letters takes a lotlonger...Just my thoughts.. But I like the CHEAPER idea!

ggluvbug Posted December 11, 2004 Report Share Posted December 11, 2004 in a book i read on the credit repair issue, they suggested that all letters be handwritten to help prevent the "using a credit repair service" line. i don't guess this would work for that would it?

LuuCkyJaa Posted December 11, 2004 Report Share Posted December 11, 2004 This seems like a great service. However, the CRA's, OC's and CA's all seem to want you to either do everything on the phone or send stuff to a mailing address, which takes forever to get from them.If they take forever to give out a mailing address, I think it will take forever-and-a-day to get a usable e-mail address. I don't think that sending anything to [email protected] would be worthwhile. Have you been able to obtain usable e-mail addresses?This would be soooo much easier than CMRRR.Kind regards,James from Brooklyn Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
creditcardcory Posted December 14, 2004 Author Report Share Posted December 14, 2004 I've already received two responses from letters that I sent registered email 4 days ago. I've already sent follow up disputing the investigations. It only cost me $1.72 total for both letters certified.In addition, I contacted the RPost website questioning legality and they sent me a 7 page white page covering all the legal stuff. It's all legitimate. If there is a lawyer in the house that would like to review it I will forward it to them, however it is pretty straight forward.LuuCky, all I did was get a name of a VP from the company off the internet and called the 800 number. I then said, "I was speaking with Michael McDonald earlier today and I believe I wrote down his email incorrectly." They then gave it to me. Time it took me to get the email address and send it? 3 minutes vs. a 10 minute walk to the post office and 20 minutes in line. Woo hoo.Cory Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LuuCkyJaa Posted December 14, 2004 Report Share Posted December 14, 2004 I think this is a great idea, but I the kind of information you have to include in a DV letter is not the kind of info I would send via unsecured e-mail. Sure, the Registered Receipt is secure, but the contents of your e-mail are not.This service can guarantee that your e-mail has been viewed by the recipient, but it does nothing prevent it from being viewed by hackers along the way.Just my opinion, of course.Kind regards,James from Brooklyn Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WGL Posted January 17, 2005 Report Share Posted January 17, 2005 What about "return receipt" that provides proof of delivery for $1.30-$1.75OR "Delivery Confimation" which provides date and time of delivery or attempted delivery for $0.55?

creditcardcory Posted January 17, 2005 Author Report Share Posted January 17, 2005 It was all included in my service Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
miracle Posted January 17, 2005 Report Share Posted January 17, 2005 in a book i read on the credit repair issue, they suggested that all letters be handwritten to help prevent the "using a credit repair service" line. i don't guess this would work for that would it?I wouldn't suggest handwritting all of your letters. If they use the credit repair service line there are some cards to pull there.. but I would go ahead and type your correspondence. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
