They have called me non stop today and leaving me messages telling me to call them back regarding a debt they are trying to collect for their client. And their client is wanting to press charges on me. He told me to call him back by 5pm today but even if i would have he called me at least 5 times again. I reported them to my cellphone company and to my local sheriffs dept.

They are calling my phone every other day, stating that i have a warrant for my arrest. They told me to call them back before 5pm.

A Lisa Smith helped me with this debt. I knew i had it with Aaron's account that i kept the furniture on. I did try contact them but they started that they could not help me. So when i received the call from her "was how can you help me"? She stated that she was calling to get my statement on file...long story short i owed them $1876.89 i settled for $687.13 i received my email the same day stating that i paid in full...i contacted Aaron's just to make sure they told me that i was finally clear been owing since 2012. Thanks Ms. Smith for your kindness. She is very polite.  
Mr. Kenneth

WOW!!!!!  Now you can give us the company's information - you know - address, website, contact information, etc.  We anxiously await your reply!   BTW - emails are notification of NOTHING!

I think he did almost name it right  MJG.. under caller id Fakoure Mediation .. how original!  ROFL..

And Ms. Smith was so helpful too.  She must work for umpteen companies.  Her name keeps popping up allover 800notes!

So you used an account belonging to somebody named Aaron and didn't pay? I am guessing his credit is ruined now because you had to use his account for your furniture. You need to stop using the accounts of others and establish your own line of credit and keep up with those payments. You would be amazed at how good it feels to be financially responsible.



Nice try with that story. I am not buying for one nanosecond.

Poor innocent Aaron. My heart goes out to that dude.

Isn't that amazing MJG! She certainly gets around! Must have a jet to fly all over the world in!

Excuse me but i don't think you read correctly.
I said i had a account with Aaron's furniture..please read before you respond.
I am very glad to have taken care of this matter...
Once again please read before you respond

Try reading this correctly ....

FTC alert: "Fake Debt Collectors"
http://www.consumer.ftc.gov/articles/0258-fake-debt-collectors

No one should be paying strangers on the phone who lay claim to some unverified debt, no matter what you Satisfied Victim shills say.

Aaron's is merely a predatory lender which happens to operate furnishing showrooms. While known to try, they cannot legally whistle up police to help them collect old bills, as the items being financed are for "personal, family, or household purposes", therefore covered by the FDCPA as consumer debt. Threats by collectors along those lines are illegal and give consumers cause to sue for relief. Once again, please check yourself before you mislead.

Ok, well first you didn't name the collection company and their address now did you?  Why is that?  Certainly not because it is personal information unless you work there.
Now Aaron's is a rent to own operation.  In cases such as that, the title to the property remains with Aaron's until it is paid off.  As such, not paying the rental fee, and not returning the items would be considered a criminal offense (the not returning the items part).  So you signed a contract, kept the furniture, and then decided to stiff Aaron's for the money?  So then you claim that this magnanimous debt collector called you after Aaron's refused to take your money?  And this wonderful debt collector then settled for roughly 37% of the bill?  But Aaron's wouldn't even accept the full amount?
Now what statement would she need to get on file?  Did she say she was going to arrest you?  Is she a law enforcement officer?  You do know that e mail is not a legal way of communicating in a debt related matter right?
It is also interesting that the company name you wrote has a thread at another web site with a complaint:  http://www.callhunter.com/tags/fakouri-mediation
But at least the name is appropriate, fake meditations.

I love the response I received. It really had me laughing.

Lisa Smith strikes again.  Doesn't sound like the Lisa Smith we all know and dislike.

It sure sounded like you used another persons account to get some furniture to me.

I knew that you knew, before you read the whole shill post that it was painfully obvious that it was bs,  thanks to----iiiiiiiiiiiiiiii- i yi yi!

Pam Hill called stating she is from Pre Trial mediations and wanted me to verify an address she rattled off. She stated there is a warrant out for my arrest but wouldn't give name of source. She stated what's so hard about remembering I didn't pay a bill. Needless to say she listened to the dial tone really quick.

I think i should've said full story i recieved a letter first threw my mail.
It was from collections..i did not respond..
Aaron's said they would not accept payments.after the time period i did try.. i owed them i still have furniture..
Account was in my name..
No one stated anything bout police..i don't know what the big issue is..i also recieved a settlement letter in mail. So i contacted Aaron's after reading this...just to make sure

Then post up the full business name,verifiable street address, city and state. It should be on your papers you got from them in the USPS mail!
