We have a judgement against us by RAS LaVrar and we are trying to refinance our mortgage. We need a payoff letter for the loan servicing company *or* we will satisfy the judgement today but need the Satisfaction of Judgement letter immediately. RAS LaVrar refuses to even discuss my account with me because I previously had counsel. I have to send a letter to them to authorize them to speak to me and that takes 3-4 days to process.I am able and willing to settle this judgement today but RAS LaVrar will not even discuss the account.Business Response

I was sued by this company for a credit card debt and I tried multiple timess to resolve the debt before the court date. I offered 50 a month. They did not agree and wanted over 200 down and 100 a month. So I went to court. And the first offer was 29 dollars a month. Seems like a waste of me requesting off work to settle on an amount smaller than what I originally offered. The court date was on May 8th. Since then I have logged into my account online and no where on the site does it give me an option to pay that amount just the full amount. I have left multiple messages and have never gotten a response. The first payment is due June 8th. It is now May 30th. Not sure how to resolve this if they are not responding and I am not paying the full amount.Business Response

Ras Levrar illegally served my wife while she was recovering from surgery, and forced us to set up a payment plan embarrassing to the judge and judicial process server. ********** has consistently refused to provide a written of verification of debt, and continues to report my debt as delinquent to the creditor they claim to be collecting on behalf of. The current amounts claimed to be collected by ********** are inaccurately reported to the bank incorrectly Back on May 16th, ********** asked for my contact phone number they should have on file. No contact has been made. I requested, as I have been requesting since April of last year: 1. A verification of debt in writing. 2. A written list of all future payment dates.3. The payment date to be moved to after the 23rd. 4. Cease reporting debt I make payments on as "delinquent".Ras Levrar continues to negatively damage my credit and cause ongoing financial hardship and strife, allowing the debt I pay monthly on to be reported as "delinquent," and avoiding the above listed legal responsibilities and documentation they are required to provide.Business Response

I am rejecting this response because:Ras Levrar is apparently admitting to improper service.
The requested documents were not "all provided by email," especially as this is impossible -- I requested physical copies mailed to my address on file with Ras Levrar.
Ras Levrar has confirmed they continue to improperly report the incorrect balance on the account, and refuse to accurately report payments made and are instead reporting the account as "delinquent".

I will not tolerate continued intimidation or harassment, and I request that the *********** conduct a thorough investigation into Mr. *********************** actions, his firms handling of this matter, and their compliance with both state bar ethics rules and federal debt collection laws.Please consider this my formal objection to the validity of the debt and a demand for a full review of the actions taken by this attorney and firm.

I, ***** *****, a federally protected consumer, am asserting my rights under the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act (15 U.S.C. 1692g). I formally request that your company validate the alleged debt you claim I owe. I am not refusing to pay; I am requesting proof that I am legally obligated to do so. Under 15 U.S.C. 1692g, you are required to provide: The amount of the debt, The name of the creditor, A notice of my right to dispute within 30 days, Verification if I dispute the debt in writing, The name and address of the original creditor if different from the current one. Please send all documentation showing your authority to collect and proof of the debt, including a copy of any contract with my signature. Until this is provided, all collection activity, including credit reporting and communications, must cease. Furnishing unverified information may be considered fraud under federal and state law. I have also attached a cease and desist notice. If adverse action is taken against me during this time, I will consult legal counsel. If you cannot validate this debt within 30 days, you must delete it from all consumer reporting agencies and cease collection. This is a good faith request. Failure to comply will be documented and may result inBusiness Response

To Whom It May Concern,
The documents you have provided consist solely of monthly statements. These do not constitute the original signed contract that outlines the terms under which the alleged credit account was opened, nor do they establish that I am the lawful owner of the credit card(s) in question or that I entered into a binding agreement with your institution.
As per the contract terms, any disputes were to be resolved through arbitration, not through small claims court. Initiating court proceedings in contradiction to the agreed arbitration clause is a breach of contract.
I hereby formally request that you provide the original, fully executed contractsigned by both partieswithin 20 business days of this notice. If the requested documents are not received within that timeframe, I will proceed with filing a counterclaim on the grounds of breach of contract and improper legal procedure.Business Response

My 81 year old mother was sent this letter regarding a 17 year old credit card debt from ********************, the debt was settled in 2011 through a short sale. The court records show a judgment was placed in 2008, then in 2019 the case was closed with a 0 balance. This Ras Lavrar is sending harassing letters to my 81 year old mother that gets $ 700 per month to live on. Really incredible lack of humanity.Business Response

I contacted and spoke to **** on the fifth it is now the ninth and I still have yet to receive anything in my email to confirm the settlement that we agreed upon go to leave messages. No one returned my phone calls or my emails and this has been since day, one so well over two months, I find this to be very unprofessional and goes against my rights as a consumer. I am more than willing to resolve this but I am not going to trust a law firm that cant even return phone calls or emails to pay off something again that I am willing to do in installments, but I cant even get through to confirm if payments have been received so something needs to be done because I am not dealing with this I deal with anxiety big-time and Im not gonna give you personal information to pay something off when your law firm can you return emails let alone phone calls ! Im tired of getting solicitation mail in the mail and I know **** right well that goes against my rights consumer harassment do you want this issue resolved yeah nobody does what theyre supposed to do so I want full resolve meant of this if not, I will publicly put this on TVBusiness Response

Recently I was falsely subpoenaed regarding a lawsuit that never involved me. The lawsuit was for someone whom shared only my middle and last name only. I firmly believe my personal information was sold to advertisement creditors without fully verifying my identity. I have been receiving endless amounts of solicitations for legal representation. I have since notified my county clerk of court whom has also verified this was in fact an error on behalf of the law firm bringing the lawsuit. Upon notifying the law firm they offered no remedy or explanation nor apology. Im highly concerned this law firm has sold my information without my knowledge nor verifying my lack of involvement with this lawsuit. My personal information is private. This law firm simply went on assumption and has done nothing but fill my mailbox with debt collector advertisements. Im seeking a remedy and resolve for what they have done. I will include photos of the actual court documents with not even my address. My name is *********** ******* ******. This law firm went solely on my middle and last name despite telling the summoning officer multiple times it was not me. He also never asked for my ID, again, telling him multiple times it was not me. I also included two of the letters from advertising debt collectors with my name and actual address.Business Response

Also, I had another problem because I never authorize or gave consent to ******** nor ********** asked or requested consent for my personal identifying information and transaction ibfomation to being serviced outside *****************. This violates the GRAMMBEACHLY ACT, and I filed two disputes reagrding my serious issue to the head of ********* review department,and fegardless of telling them the w and exolaing their actions that were corresponding to these laws, and they replied globalism poicies allow it. I have the proof and douments. I got notification by letter from ***** in june staring that regardless of my serious violations, they threatened to sue within 30 days of receipt, and I never had heard anything else from them. After that written notification, i attempted on several calls made to the number listed either no onr anwered or the cll wuldnt connect. there is no issues with my phone coverage or anything at all. Then on September ******, while i was at work, my husband received papers from the colquitt county sheriffs stating that i needed to contact the firm on the information.
