We had 2 accounts in collections with these people. They filed a judgment at a former address for one of them, which we found out after the fact. The second went to arbitration. We thought it best to make payments, that by not paying them the situation would only get worse. Even in making the payments, as soon as one of the payments was not for the correct amount, they were in the process of pursuing a Writ of Execution for the one account. The sheriff's office whom I was directed to deal with by S&R doesn't have information on the Writ, but S&R won't accept my payments now, but interest is still being added. Also for the other account they have pushed on with a consent judgment for the other acct which we wouldn't sign and now just got papers for a real judgment recently. They will not settle, the payments are not good enough, and I feel I am stuck. We made payments because we did not know what else to do and felt we had to, now it is too late to vacate the judgment apparently, and we're having trouble finding a lawyer who will call us back. It is such a mess. I feel we are being taken advantage of, and don't know whether to keep trying to make the payments or not. I honestly get the feeling they do not want us to be able to pay it. My husband gets calls from a recording to call them at a certain number, he did this several times and it is a recording every time.
