In mid-July, I was looking at my checking account online and found that since the last part of April, I had withdrawals of $180.00 a month from DMS Marketing electronically taken from my account. Since I had no idea who this company is, I called my bank and was given a different company name and phone number.
When I called the number and gave them my name, I was not in their system and they couldn't find any record of me anywhere. They said they would investigate and call me back, which they did, however, they could not figure out who was withdrawing the money... They did not do any business online and only had stores in central Illinois. I told them since I live in Utah, it would have been hard for me to visit one of their stores! In the meantime, I put a freeze on my account, filed a fraud report with the bank, eventually closed that account and had to reopen a new one.
I recently received a letter from the Collection Dept. Of DMS Marketing stating that I owed them more money. They sent it once the bank refused to pay on the old account. I have not yet responded to the letter but plan to.
I noticed that the one thing the various complaints on your report had in common was 'no address or phone number' for these companies. I wanted to share the info I received so they could possibly resolve their complaints as well.
