    One of the Buffalo Bullies, reported on several number threads, has been shut down.  All informational credit goes to poster "Vince" on the number thread 315-350-3266.  Given my past unsuccessful attempts, I apologize in advance if my third try fails.  Thank you Vince for sharing this good news!

    Here is a partial exert from the article:

    "SYRACUSE – A court order has been obtained against Med-Rev Recoveries, a consumer debt collection agency formerly located in Liverpool, permanently barring it from operating as a debt collector and requiring payment of $550,000 for consumer restitution, civil penalties and costs.

    Med-Rev’s sole owner, John St. Denis, and its former President, Jamie Fortino signed a stipulation agreeing to the terms.

    The Attorney General’s Office and the Better Business Bureau received dozens of complaints from consumers alleging verbal harassment by Med-Rev collectors and their refusal to provide consumers with account balance or verification of the debts it was attempting to collect. In addition, consumers and medical providers complained that Med-Rev was not timely remitting consumers’ payments to the creditors. Some consumers learned their payments had not been credited to their past-due accounts when they sought medical, dental and/or veterinary care and were denied treatment due to unpaid debt."
