Ryan and Reed, Inc complaint and general information

Ryan and Reed, Inc complaint and general information For the last three years of my life I have been harassed by a collection "agency" known as Ryan & Reed, Inc, sometimes going by the name Ryan and Reed Legal Associates. I have had well over 100 calls from there collectors screaming and cursing at me into the phone. Many of these calls took place between 5 am and 6am, Alaska Standard Time. They have threatened to sue me, call my employer, call "the sheriff" on me, and have called me numerous derogatory names. When I first began dealing with this institution they claimed to be located in Texas, but I would like to state for the record that they are not. I have done a detailed investigation regarding this institution and Im sorry to say that all of the information they provide is completely false. I spent many days and hours investigating there practices on the internet. There collection actions are definitely illegal and certainly qualify for harassment. I encourage anyone who has had any interaction with Ryan and Reed, Inc., regardless of there circumstances, to please come forward and tell there story. I encourage everyone to make a formal complaint to the Federal Trade Commission and the Better Business Bureau in both Texas and Florida. Contact a attorney if you must, but do not ever give these people money. From my many days and hours of investigating Ryan and Reed I have discovered that very few, if any,of the businesses that they collect for ever receive a dime from them. However, the businesses they claim to collect for can do very little to acquire the outstanding debt back to them once they have handed it over to Ryan and Reed, Inc. Most of the business end there ties with Ryan and Reed, only to have them continue to agressively collect there money and then pocket it fully for themselves. I beg of anyone that interacts with these people to record the phone calls they receive from them and keep a detailed log of names and interactions with them. Class-action lawsuits happen everyday of the week and everyone who is being harassed by these people needs to standup to them and demand to stop being bullied, regardless of the fact that you may actually owe someone money. I have included the actual location and phone number of Ryan and Reed, Inc in this email. I encourage you to expose to them that you are aware of where there business is actually located and that you will not tolerate there harassment and threats. Ryan and Reed Inc (407) 688-1880 1511 Kastner pl Sanford, FL 32771 Most people who have received calls from this institution receive a 800 # and address that is located in Texas, although that information is false and is merely a third party mailing address. The call center and actual location of the business is the address stated above. I spent many days attempting to acquire this information and slowly found it. It proved to be quite simple in the end. I simply went to monster.com and pretended to be someone applying for a job with them and the information came pouring in. Yes, Im 100% sure that this is the correct Ryan and Reed, Inc that provides agressive collection efforts that are both illegal and in my opinion - immoral. Im sure many of you have called the 800# and heard there greeting of "Professional Offices!", this is the same people. If anyone receives calls from them living in the state of Florida I strongly urge you to go and speak to them face to face at the address above. Yes, there collection practices are illegal and you do have the right to call the police and file harassment charges if you live in the state of Florida or elsewhere. If anyone would like to contact me regarding this information or if you would simply like to tell me your story about what happened please feel free to do so. Please type Ryan and Reed complaint in the subject line before sending. Together we can put a end to there harassment. Dont let another day pass with the endless name calling and irritating hangups they provide. Whatever you do, dont send them any money. __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Tired of spam? Yahoo!
