R T H Group

Review: Calling me and my family members and saying that I am going to be prosecuted for money owed. Say I owe over 700.00 dollars to these people. I am worried that this is a scam and will take money from me or may family. They only call on our cell phones not our home numbers. Don't know how they are getting cell phone numbers of my family. They are really scaring me. The people are very rude and very scarey. Threating to have me arrested. I just need to verify if the people are legit. They have no business calling family members. This needs to be shut down!!!!Desired Settlement: DesiredSettlementID: Other (requires explanation) I want these people to leave me and my family alone. I don't know how to stop the calls.I want to be refunded the $100.00 I paid them!!!

Review: I have been receiving calls all week from a woman and man stating they are on the way to serve me court papers unless I call XXX-XXX-XXXX. I have been ignoring it until today when a man kept calling my employer over and over finally when they let me speak to him he stated he was a process server and if I didn't call this number he would be over with the police to serve me court paper. My employer sent me home for the day to deal with the issue. I called the number which a [redacted] answered and stated I was being charged with check fraud intent to commit fraud and other crimes and that the only was I could stop this was to pay him 900 dollars he then offered a settlement of 603 and if I don't pay I would have to go to court and would pay triple the amount. I asked him to send me a debt verification and he stated they do not have to. I contacted the FTC who stated this was a scam and that they would have to send verification. The process server also told numerous coworkers what was going on I thought according to the fdcpa they can not do this also they can not threaten you and are required to supply a verificationDesired Settlement: I believe they should have to pay me for the hours that I lost today to deal with there scam I also think they should be prosecuted for fraud and trying to extort money from people as I have looked them up online and they have done the same thing to numerous peopl

Review: The people called me in regards to a loan that I had received, I was making payments on my loan and unfortunately in order to save my home, I had to file bankruptcy. I gave all of the information to my attorneys to file claims on everything. Then I received a call from the RTH Group stating that I was going to be served by a process server if I did not pay them money and I would be going to jail for fraud. I have just forwarded my attorneys everything I have from them. They call my job and family and friends repeatedly giving them personal information about me as well. The problem is the loan company does not work with these people, so the payments that I have made, has not even been going to the loan company.Desired Settlement: They need to be shut down so they will no longer be able to scam people.

Review: I originally received a loan from [redacted] for 400 dollars. I paid them every week for two weeks until 3/20/2013. My bank advised to stop the [redacted] payments, they stated this company is not a legal compnay. As I had paid well over $1000 to that date, I was hoping to settle this somehow. I only received an email stating the [redacted] would stop. On 4/26/2013, I receive a blocked call. I let it go to voicemail, where I was told to call RTH Group about a summons against me. I would be facing court time and jail time. I look this up on the internet and found nothing but SCAM notices and articles and Revdex.com states they have an F rating. They then called my husband, my mother and father. They state the same thing to them and said to my father, we are warning you that your daughter is about to be arrested. They called them 5 more times and me 5 more times. I answered the 5th time, they give me the information again. She said that I have been officially notified and served. I told her to quit calling me and my family. She said she will keep calling until the payment is made. I called RTH and was told my loan with [redacted] has an outstanding balance of 416. She transfers me to someone at extension [redacted] He states that though they do not agree with payday loan practices, they are the legal team to offer settlements and receive payments and that I will be going to jail within the hour if I do not pay. He said I took a loan with [redacted] source in December and have not paid anything since (this is a lie-I have proof). He said that my balance is 916.00 (I said this is wrong, it is 416 and the other lady I spoke to said 416. He said she saw it wrong and I said no she didn't bc that was the balance). He said that they will accept a settlement for 596. He said I had one shot at the moment to accept it or they will proceed. Although, warning bells are going off in my head, I was genuinely scared, as was my 70 year old father and 65 year old mother. I gave them my debit card number, where they processd 595.40 immediately. They said that I need to sign the authorization form they emailed me to go through with the payment. As of 4/30/13, the payment went through, so no payment authorization signature was needed. The bank said that the address given is not a legitimate address and they advised me authorize them to reverse it. I called [redacted] to ask if they received the payment. They said they did not and they have no idea who RTH is. She said they sent my accoutn to [redacted] I called them who said it was sent to [redacted] I called [redacted] who said they sell debts to RTH. I told her they told me they were suing me and having me arrested. The woman seemed genuinely confused and said they are not a legal department but a company that buys debts. As far as I know, [redacted] does not have the debt. I can't get a straight answer, as I am assuming they do not want to tell of selling the debt. I am not saying, I should not pay what I owe, I assumed that I could settle this after paying hundreds of dollars already. So my complaint is the way they handled the call and the lies. Also, I want to reverse this payment since it did not go to [redacted]. BUT I do not want these people to call continuously like they did last week and harass me. Desired Settlement: I want my 595.40 refunded and them to never call me or anyof my family again.

Consumer's Final Response /* (-5, 5, 2013/05/01) */

I just received an email from [redacted] They state RTH does NOT represent them. They sent the account to [redacted] and they no longer have the account. They advised to report to [redacted].

Rth told me they were filing judgements on behalf of [redacted]. I do not owe RTH a dime and want te 595.40 promptly refunded and for them to NEVER contact me or my family again. I need Revdex.com advise if I need to go ahead and dispute the charge at my bank. [redacted] suggested doing so under fraud

Review: My complaint is like many others. They said they were collecting a debt that I never had & contacted my 67yr old mother & scared her by saying I was going to be arrested at my job & out of fear she gave them her credit card information to charge $1036.02. We have cancelled credit card & I have contacted company & told them to not contact me or my family ever again. Desired Settlement: I just want other consumers to be aware so this does not happen to them.

Review: Received a frantic voicemail from my sister stating that someone from RTH Group was calling her for me with a summons and complaint and that they threatened to legally go after her and her husband in regards to this matter. They advised her to contact me immediately or they would be served as well. I also received a voicemail message from this company stating if I did not call them immediately that a summons and complaint would be served on me and I would brought forth on charges for criminal fraud. I also heard from my brother, they had contacted them as well and were extremely mean and nasty.I called them immediately, they at first were extremely rude and threatening, I was calm and explain the situation and numerous phone calls and that I did not appreciate them threatening my family members.They advise they were an arbitration group in the beginning of the call and that if I did not settle this debt immediately they would go forth with legal action against me. My husband and I were victims of identity theft and have been having an ongoing issue with it for two years now. I asked what the charge was, how much and who it was for? They advised me that it was for [redacted], which after research found out is a payday loan service which is illegal in our state (NY) also this was the original complaint of our identity theft. At the time of the original id theft, we closed all accounts, filed complaints and police reports regarding the ID theft,2 yrs later we get a call from this company threatening to have wages garnished and me arrested for fraud.I have contacted NYS Attorney Generals Office there are numerous reports of this company being a third party collection agency who buys debt info from other companies. They are a scam. I contacted this [redacted] Payday Loan Service, they have no affiliation to this RTH Group/ROTECH Holdings LTD; they stated they did not hire them and had no record of deb.I panicked so that my sister would not be involved paid them via phone. I already contacted my bank.

I have a complaint on file with NYS Attorney Generals office and have contacted an attorney in which I myself will be pursuing legal action against them directly.My bank advised I probably will never see a dime of the money I paid(615.75)that companies like this regularly change their names & phone numbers. My bank did suggest that to warn others to file a complaint with you to advise others not to give out an finance ino

Review: I was contacted by this company on 9/28/13 indicating that I had an old payday loan that I had to pay or I will be taken to court or put in jail. I was very scared and didn't know what to do b/c they had all my correct information and I did have the old loan. The man told me if I did not pay I will be served the same day by a process server and I will be taken to court and put in jail. Therefore, I made a payment arrangement and made a payment b/c I didn't want to go to court over a payday loan. However, I started researching this RTH Group and all I found was scam complaints. I then contacted the Revdex.com and I was informed that this company does not exist and the mailing address was not a real address b/c mail has came back to the Revdex.com indicating the mail was undelieverable return to sender. Revdex.com also stated that RTH still has not responded to their complaints. I also contacted the FTC and was given a list of red flags for debt scammers (ex.threatened to put in jail, will not give any of their information, will not provide you with any documentation, etc.) and this company fit into that category. I also asked RTH for an address twice and he hung up on me and said if I called back I will be served. I gave these people 273.33 that I really did not have to only find out they are scammers. I changed my bank information and cancelled my bank card I paid them with. There are alot of complaints against this company for improper collection practices and they need to be stopped. I am not paying this company another penny!!!Desired Settlement: I want these people to stop contacting me and my job and refund me my money back!!!

Review: Calling Job 6 times in one day, leaving rude message on the voice mailDesired Settlement: Money Back

Review: This company called me threatening me saying that if I didn't pay them $1,740.50 on a loan that I had (which I did not have any loans) they would come to my job and have me arrested. They even had knew where I banked at so I thought that they were ligit. Therefore, I did a payment over the phone. I came to find out now that this company is a scam company. I found this out because they called me again today threatening me again that if I don't pay the claim against me that they will serve me at my place of employment.Desired Settlement: A full refund of my $1,740.50.

Review: I received a phone call stating I would be served. I have never received any information and I have informed the company I am filing bankruptcy. I offered my attorneys information and they refused to take it. I was hung up on and called by two different representatives. I checked on the county website and there is no lawsuit for me. Desired Settlement: An apology and a letter explaining the debt not a threat of suit. Practice lawfull methods of collections.

Review: They called me stating that I owed [redacted] from 2007 and that the original amount was 1498, but with their fees and interest it was 1998. I asked them for a debt validation letter first, and they said that they were an arbitration firm and that they didn't have to send me a letter in the mail. I then asked them for their address, not once, not twice, but three times, and I was never given an address. I paid these thugs $399 to get them off of my back, but now I see that I've been taken. They offered me a "settlement" but I have yet to see anything in the mail. I refused email/fax from them. I wanted snail mail documentationDesired Settlement: I want my $399 back and I want them to leave me alone.

Review: Receiving multiple harassing phone calls from the agency. Also, a server who is harassing me at my place of work. I have repeatedly asked these 2 gentlemen to stop calling me at work, but they will not. I even called the company to resolve this debt but they will not accept my attempts. I am aware that I have a debt but the practices this company used is absolutely unacceptable. I will not tolerated being threatened and verbally abused. Desired Settlement: I will pay the amount I owe, but not $200 more they are trying to exhort from me. Also, that all phone calls will end. Once I pay the amount of $517.50, equally divided into 4 monthly amounts of $103.50 this matter will be closed and this company will not sell my information to another company. They will cease & desist.

Review: People from RTH Group have been calling me repeatedly threatening me at my place of work and my cell phone. They have claimed that I will be arrested. When I call them back to ask what this is about, they want social security number. I will not give them my social security number and they won't stop calling me. I have no idea what this is about and they will not tell me, but they won't stop threatening me and calling.

I have looked this company up online and they are a sham. These people need to stop harassing me. I don't have any outstanding debts or bills and I have no idea why they would be calling me. And they call multiple times per day and make threats on VM.

Desired Settlement: To stop calling me and threatening me.

Review: No communications with me have told me that the caller is attempting to collect a debt and that any information obtained from you will be used for that purpose. They also refuse to tell me what the collection agency's name is.

I have told him numerous times that my employer does not allow calls of a personal nature at work and that they may not contact me by telephone, please mail anything to me, he continues to call at my office.

The gentleman that calls me leaves misleading messages and misrepresentation as he says he will be serving me in person with legal papers.

Desired Settlement: Due to the level of misrepresentation and obvious lack of boundries with the laws of debt collection, I would like all phone communication stopped and any communication mailed to my home address ONLY.

Review: process server named [redacted] has been calling me and telling me that she is going to my place of employment to serve me with papers for a payday loan out of utah. I have not received any correspondence from this company or anyone else that they had turned it over to so I am asking for a formal complaint to be filed against this company called R T H GroupDesired Settlement: For them to stop harrassing me and for them to send me the proper documation that they have the debt. If they can not do that then they need to pay me for harrassing me of 900.00 dollars

Review: A representative from the RTH Group named as [redacted] has repeatedly phone relatives and my place of employment telling erroneous information to relatives and co workers. Indicating that he was going to serve me with court papers, saying that I have committed fraud, threatening co workers and relatives,etc. He would leave no contact number but I later located a X XXX XXX XXXX number belonging to RTH Group. Also later looked online and learned about a scam with this business and [redacted] I contacted number and asked about information concerning the debt and I have probably breached my security info by providing them with my current banking information in a effort to settle. However after asking for a confirmation email outlining the settlement details I have received nothing.Desired Settlement: I want the threatening phone calls to relatives and place of employment to stop. I will be calling my banking institution to stop any unauthorized payments. I want paperwork indicating the nature of the debt and whether the business is legitimate. I want restitution from [redacted] and RTH Group for divulging personal information to my relatives and employer.

Review: This company is calling people all over the place, cousins, uncles, people that don't even know me. This is unacceptable.Desired Settlement: I want them to stop! There is no need to involve people in their SCAM! If I could I would like a settlement of $1,500.00 for the damage they have caused my reputation by calling people that they should not, and telling them they are suing me. This is horrible!
