Guest jeeptravel Posted January 23, 2005 Report Share Posted January 23, 2005 Hi guys, it appears National Credit Audit Corporation is scamming a lot of people by falsely billing them for magazines never ordered and never received. After doing a Yahoo! search on the company (they claim my wife owes "Parents" magazine $9.95, i was like . . . "Ha ha ha, silly colletion company man, you deal with wrong pale-face!!!" I found out that this is a widespread problem and the company are basically claiming funds from threatened people under false pretenses . . . . I'm pissed.I know I can do a CMRRR to both "Parents" magazine and this company includng a demand for a DV and a notice of intent to sue in 30 days if the matter is not corrected and sent to me in writing.Beyond that, any suggestions? This kind of crap really burns me up when I've worked so hard to get my credit good, and then some little thievsh company comes into my world and starts swingin' their cap gun at me.Has anyone else had experience with this company? Here's a few sites if you are interested. There were 10's and 20's of them in my searches. I put their name in the subject line so future victims can find this on a search:http://www.consumersrevenge.com/complaints/ntlcredit2.htmhttp://www.complaints.com/march2003/complaintoftheday.march8.15.htmhttp://www.complaints.com/may2003/complaintoftheday.may9.17.htmThanks for reading, again if you have any advice on how I might dent these guys and/or just get my wife's credit file safe from their threats, I'd sure appreciate it. Oh, and to answer your rhetorical thoghts: NO, she never ordered it.Thanks againJeep Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DocDon Posted January 23, 2005 Report Share Posted January 23, 2005 The FTC and State AG's still handle consumer issues - doesn't have to do with just credit issues.National Credit Audit Corporation8512 Allen RdPeoria, IL 61615Suzanne Detlefs, PresidentWith 250 complaints received by the BBB alone, me thinks this needs to be escalated to entities that can actually do something about them - not just mitigate an acceptable resolution, but physically shut them down if they're in the business of fraud.

Guest jeeptravel Posted January 25, 2005 Report Share Posted January 25, 2005 Received this email this morning from NCAC. I guess they don't want to tangle with me. Funny how they didn't have to do much Debt Validation to drop it all together. Further proof that unless you speak up to the CA's and demand validation, they may continue to bother you whether they have grounds or not.Those with other issues with NCAC, the contact info is at bottom.Dear Mr. Riley,Thank you for your e-mail concerning the collection letter your wifereceived. I have cancelled your wife's account so you will not receiveanything further from NCAC.We received your wife's name from Parents Magazine as having ordered asubscription for which they did not receive payment. Your wife's name isno longer on the publisher's file so she will not receive anything fromthem.I would like to assure you that this does not reflect on any credit rating.If I can be of further assistance, please feel free to contact me.Again, thank you for your response.Sincerely,Toni PassmoreNCAC Account Manager(309) 689-6148 office(309) 689-6452 faxtoni.passmore@choicepoint.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DocDon Posted January 25, 2005 Report Share Posted January 25, 2005 I'd still report them. Sounds like they are shady at best.Perhaps a formal investigation may uncover something on a much larger scale and help somebody else in a similar situation that doesn't know about DV....
