This firm bought out an old debt that i had almost paid off until i got laid off.in 2000 I Bought a brand new Chrysler, made the payments for 2 years straight until my company went bankrupt. Over 300 people including myself lost our jobs. I made the payment for as long as i could with the little bit of unemployment i was getting. Of course my children cannot live in a car, so i let the car go to make sure my mortgage was paid. Chrysler auctions off the vehicle after i turned it in. They get everything they wanted out of the vehicle except, $4500, which of course, they are coming after me for. Luckily, i got a new job 4 monthes after all of this went down, and i started making payments with chrysler to get this matter taken care of. I get the bill down to $2400. Meanwhile, my company moves out of my homestate which is back east to Kentucky. 2 Monthes after i move to kentucky, The company shuts down. Contacted the collection agency in my homestate to let them know payments will resume as soon as i get back to work. A few monthes go by, and a company named Morgan and Pottinger Louisville, Ky send me a letter stating if i have no way to pay them, they will take whatever property i have. The file a petition with the county clerks office, and it says if i don't pay them $5800, they are going to take my property, vehicles, assets, etc etc. Forget coming to get my property etc etc, how did the bill go from $2400 to $5800? They tell me because of lawyers fees, filing, etc etc. I Thought there was a statue of limitations on things like this? As it is now, i'm sending them a certified money order every month on my payment of $5800, which i will probably never get paid off. If anyone else out there is dealing with morgan and pottinger. Do not give them your bank account info, they will take whatever is in there. Send a U. S Postal money order, via certified mail, make sure you cover yourself with these bloodsuckers. Also they will contact you all hours of they day and on weekends, even after you have made a payment.
