To Whom It May Concern:
We have received your letter dated February 17, and appreciate the opportunity to respond to the concerns of the consumer
On August 29, based on financial information obtained verbally, the consumer agreed to make payments toward the rehabilitation program. To qualify to have loans rehabilitated the payment amount needed to be validated with documentation and the consumer needed to make nine qualifying payments over a ten month period and continue to make monthly payments until being notified of successful rehabilitation. The consumer authorized payments through May 15,
Throughout the months after agreeing to rehabilitate Van Ru sent several letters and placed phone calls to obtain the necessary paperwork to validate the payments. All authorized payments were run as agreed however we could not continue to take payments beyond May 15, as we had no authorization to do so and were not successful in contacting the consumer to obtain additional payments or the paperwork to validate the payment amount
On October 27, 2015, five months after the last payment had been made we received documentation however the consumer had already fallen out of compliance with the program.
On February 11, the consumer contacted our office concerned over the lack of follow up on our behalf. We explained that at the time the paperwork was received the account was no longer in compliance with the program. When pressed with questions concerning our alleged lack of follow up our representative explained that attempts were made to keep the account in compliance with the program however we did not receive responses from the consumer to letters and calls. Our review did not identify where the representative was rude or pushy with the consumer however they were not in agreement on the way the matter could have been handled which may have been perceived as rude
We regret any misunderstanding that occurred during the conversation on February 11, 2016. As the consumer has requested not to work with Van Ru we have placed the account on hold and will request the account be recalled by our client Should you have any additional questions or concerns, please contact me at [redacted]
Sincerely,
[redacted]

Dear Ms. [redacted]
Thank you for your letter dated January 12, 2015 and the opportunity to respond to the concerns of the consumer.
On January 15, 2015 we received a dispute letter from Ms. [redacted] dated January 6,...
2015. Upon receipt of the dispute the account at issue was documented as a dispute which prevents collection activity until the requested information has been sent. Upon receipt of the debt validation information it will be provided to the account holder and no further activity will occur until that has been sent.

We have received the complaint dated January 6, 2016 and appreciate the opportunity to respond to the concerns of the consumer.
Prior to initiating wage garnishment a notice is sent to the consumer to give them an opportunity to object to the...
garnishment and request a hearing to determine if the garnishment will cause an undue hardship. Our records indicate the notice was sent to Ms. [redacted] on March 9, 2015. We have no record of the mail being returned or a hearing being requested. Nonetheless, we will be resending the hearing packet to the consumer so that she may request a hearing which may result in the garnishment being suspended. We ask that upon receipt of the documents Ms. [redacted] follow the instructions to request the hearing. Should Ms. [redacted] have any questions regarding the documentation she may contact [redacted] manager, at [redacted]

I just got off the phone with Van Ru. Spoke to a female agent that answered the line, was asking questions, she says hang on, puts me on hold. Didn’t ask my permission, didn't tell me why. Transferred me to a supervisor. While talking to the supervisor, he repeatedly interrupted me while I was talking. was completely rude in his tone. Would not help in anyway when I asked how I could request information because he wouldn't tell me anything. He finally said he'd mail me something if they could find anything. I still don't even know what this so called "debt" is for. I work in customer service, I know what to expect and how to be treated. This is the wrost experience I've ever had in my life. I'm disgusted.
RE: [redacted]
To Who It May Concern;
We have received the recent complaint submitted through the Revdex.com. We appreciate the opportunity to respond to the concerns of the consumer. On February 9, 2016 [redacted] contacted our office and offered to...
pay 20% of the debt at issue. Unfortunately, during this conversation [redacted] never provided a dollar amount and when our representative repeated $1600 on multiple occasions he was incorrect and the accuracy of the amount was not corrected during the conversation which lead to the misunderstanding and the letter being sent for a different amount than expected by Mr. [redacted].We apologize for any misunderstanding that may have occurred and are sending a corrected settlement offer letter to Mr. [redacted]. We note that the balance is assigned by our client and Van Ru does not add any additional charges of any kind to the account.
Should Mr. [redacted] have any additional questions or concerns he may contact me at [redacted] as we remain committed to consumer satisfaction.

[redacted]

(The consumer indicated he/she DID NOT accept the response from the business.)
I have answered thier calls the 13 times they mention. That is not the total number of calls they have made to me. Yes they are correct in stating that they reached the wrong person, however they continue to call and harass me as well as mail me threatening letters. I want all communication to cease or I am going to the states atty for harrasment and fraud. I have spoken to [redacted] Card thinking that they were giving them the wrong info, and they informed me that they do not deal with this company at all, nor could they find the supposed account that Van Ru references. my supposed Van Ru acct number is XXXXXXXX to make sure they delete the proper info.

(The consumer indicated he/she ACCEPTED the response from the business.)
although ive been told this in the past, I will accept this. However, if they do ever contact me again, I will go immediately to a lawyer and file a harassment claim against them citing this file as proof they claimed to have removed my name and info from their files. I will then go to the attorney general demanding that they investigate them for shady business practices.

They are not telling the truth, they contacted me BEFORE June 23rd, why would they wait that long is they received it June 4th? I only accept this response if they hold true to having it in the cease to communicate. I find it hard to believe, but will give them a chance and accept the response. It better not show up on my credit report either. Thank you for helping me with this complaint.

Re: May 23, 2016 Complaint
[redacted]
Dear [redacted]
Van Ru keeps detailed records regarding our collection efforts with consumers in order to provide superior service not only to our clients but to consumers as well. We have reviewed your complaint along with our records on the account at issue. We would like to provide you with the following information, which we believe will serve to resolve your complaint.
In November 2014 you spoke with a representative and agreed to enter the rehabilitation program. As part of qualifying for the program we need to receive timely payments, documents supporting the verbal financial information we received during program set-up and the program requires the rehabilitation agreement letter to be signed and returned. Payments were only received through February 25, 2015 and the supporting documents validating the payment were not received. Subsequently, in July 2015, the account was initiated for wage garnishment. Hearing documents were received but were not submitted timely, documents requested as part of the hearing process were not included with the hearing request forms thus the hearing was denied.
We regret any vague comments made by our representative during a call on September 3, 2015, however our records do indicate you spoke with a second person that day and that representative accurately advised you regarding the status of the account.
We remain willing to work with you to resolve your account. Please feel free to contact [redacted] Director of Consumer Advocacy, at [redacted] and he will be happy to work with you to resolve any concerns you may have and your account as well.
Sincerely,
[redacted]

RE: [redacted]
Dear Ms. [redacted]
I have been unable to identify the account at issue with the information provided. Perhaps "[redacted]" is the married or maiden name and we have the opposite. If provided with more identifying...
information, i.e. alternate names, or Van Ru account number, I would be happy to attempt to locate the account and respond to the concerns of the consumer.

(The consumer indicated he/she DID NOT accept the response from the business.)
The reason why they cannot locate me is because they are calling me by an incorrect name and I have requested numerous times for them to make the correction. They show my last name as Carter so the account is under [redacted] but I have never been [redacted] I was born [redacted] and have remained [redacted] for 40 years. I have also requested a copy of the promissory note which they have not provided and this has been requested several times.

Re: [redacted]
Dear Ms. [redacted]
The account at issue is no longer active with Van Ru. The account has been returned to our client. We are not aware of any funds that were garnished illegally. Further it is not clear what judgment the consumer is referring to though as previously stated the account is no longer assigned to Van Ru.

Dear [redacted]
Van Ru keeps detailed records regarding our collection efforts with consumers in order to provide superior service not only to our clients but to consumers as well. We have reviewed your complaint along with our records on the account at issue. We would like to provide you with the following information, which we believe will serve to resolve your complaint.
On January 10, 2015 you agreed to qualify for the rehabilitation program and provided a verbal financial statement resulting in an agreement, to be validated with supporting documentation, to pay $5.00 per month. As was explained during the call the payment amount needed to be validated with documentation. The documentation received was slightly different than what we were told initially resulting in the need to increase the payment to $10.00 per month. In July 2015 you agreed to qualify for rehabilitation by making nine payments in ten months in the amount of $10.00 per month. Unfortunately payments were not made beyond August 2015 thus you were not qualified for rehabilitation.
As we explained to you when you agreed to enter the program, the tax offset would stop after successful completion of the program which did not occur. We note that the balance currently reflected in our system is accurate and includes the recent tax offset payment. However, the letter you received with the higher balance was sent prior to the offset being reported to Van Ru.
Should you wish to discuss resolution of your account please feel free to contact [redacted] Director of Consumer Advocacy at [redacted] and he will be happy to assist you directly or ensure you are transferred to the proper party to discuss resolution.
Sincerely,
[redacted]

November 7, 2014 our validation notice was mailed to the consumer. On December 8, 2014 we received a written dispute of the debt and no further collection activity has occurred.
