They took over openpay services while we were paying off a bunnings kitchen.
They do NOT take payments on time in a deliberate attempt to charge late fees. They also double charge, you need to keep an eye on the transactions.
Horrible business, and good luck getting them on the phone, I don't both...
Over the past few weeks, I have been contacted repeatedly, approximately every two days, via phone and SMS messages. The caller has a distinct accent that I associate with a country known for a significant number of global scams, which raises an immediate red flag for me.
What is particularly alarm...
These people are a scam do not respond to them. They have been reported
Paid my debt off early using their special discounted offer and then was still charged for the same debt a few days later. Haven't been refunded yet either.
Agree with Todd above...parasites is an apt description of this mob. My experience so far is that they behave like common thugs; they seem to think they can arbitrarily make financial demands of people while providing no explanation or opportunity for recourse. This is the type of company that is ru...
Appalling customer service, and lack of timely delivery, I was expecting a closer letter to be provided so I could receive a pending home loan and Recovery corps was the only institute holding the process up, every other organisations provided this instantly however recovery or corp firstly could n...
Extremely rude, mannerless and incompetent customer service staff. I called them and asked a simple question and the lady did not want to explain the process, just very rudely told me what my problem was. I could not believe such people working in customer service! Pathetic!!!
Crooks. Somehow they got hold of my postal address and when I returned from holidays, they'd sent me a final notice threatening legal action for a debt that wasn't mine! The deadline had well and truly passed by the time I received the letter. When I called them, they admitted their "mistake" and sa...
Companies like this no doubt contribute to the suicide rate in Australia, I can see how people in dispair and struggling would feel helpless deeling with thugs like this, australian government needs to step in and SHUT THIS COMPANY DOWN, disgusting that big insurance companies and banks partner wit...
They have been sending me toll notices saying there overdue how can I receive toll notices if I have a e tag. They then sent me another letter saying if I pay now they will lower the amount that s owing... SCAM I contacted the toll companies and turns out to be I owe nothing... so please people be a...
Tried to call a friend of mine who had moved overseas you recover money she didn't owe to AGL, she left the country with a credit on her account - company will attempt underhanded recoveries of money that isn't owed.
The guy couldn't even prove who he was - just knew my name No way these days do I then give anyone any info - went directly to Optus to see what had gone on and all sorted .
He was extremely rude -
horrible people to talk to aggressive and not willing to do a payment plan
Rude service, there is a joining fee of $385 while they telling you no recovery no commission. totally a scam. And they will direct debt the money when you call at the first time while they are confirming you bank account! do not use their service, there is too much reliable companies in the market ...
Received an SMS from this mob saying I owed $87.94 to a company I had never heard of. Three phone calls later I was told it was a mistake and to ignore the SMS. I requested this in writing or at least as an SMS but was told that was not possible.
Why not?
What happens down the track when the matte...
I have paid this fine to another debt collector queensland transport has sold it to two different companies take it up with them im sick of your threats
Never use this company! Constant monthly payments debited from your account and no evidence of communication to the debtor. Over the course of the 73 days my debt was loaded, not once did i receive a call to give me a status update on how things were tracking. If i hadn't called, the contract would ...
Pursuing me over a fraudulent account, it's a police matter yet their call centre persists on auto dial and who cares?, harassment is their only discipline, not deserving of the one star, can't publish with zero
How can a publicly listed company STATE they will garnish your bank account?????? What on earth is our law BREAKING government doing to people???? I give no star rating but it won't let you post if you don't select a star.
I previously had issues with Optus for months in trying to cancel an account with them. Optus continually apologised and confirmed multiple times I had nothing owing and gave me a credit.
Next moment, this company is calling and harassing me.
After being called, they asked me to confirm my details...
Received a letter advising of money owing no info!! Then a few days later received a demand to pay an amount with no info I feel that this is a SCAM???? Not happy Jan
(0 Stars ) I missed 2 calls from them . Phoned back , after confirming my name and phone number they told me i had a bill with Virgin mobile (Who i am still with and haven't recieved any late payment letters or calls from ) But wouldn't give me any other info because i wouldn't confirm my Address an...
Incompetent staff members. They call you up and ask you for your personal details to validate. Who would have ever give that. I said I will call you back and it just got worse. They could not find anything and asked a myriad of questions. I am still none the wiser.
VERY underhanded and sneaky company. Just call and see for yourself ;-)
They use a Melbourne law courts postal address displayed on their envelopes and letterhead to scare debtors.
Their actual address is 333 Collins St, Melb. This deceives people in to thinking they're in trouble with the la...
They have stolen $90 of my money and iv waited 3 weeks to recieve it back and still nothing , how is this company legal and opperating ?
I have just had a call from "Tina" from "Recoveries Corp" claiming they are acting on behalf of AGL. When I questioned her back the phone call was ended. I rang Recoveries Corp back to query the call...when I asked the receptionist wasn't she worried about having the company being used in a Scam...s...
I was promised to send me confirmation letter of my payment same day,. 4weeks now, never received
The most unprofessional and rude company I have EVER encountered They lie about their response times They withhold funds from clients without explanation and blame third parties who don t even exist for their mistakes DO NOT DO BUISNESS OF ANY TYPE with RECOVERIES CORPORATION
This copany is a joke! They don't leave any message, called from private numbers and mobile phone numbers, called back asked for all personal informations before unsure what is the matter related to. Block their numbers is the only advise i can leave.
Horrid customer service, law breaking harassment of persons here. Seek advice when dealing with these people. They are wrong when it came to a simple case.
Extremely bad and unprofessional service.Recieved a real nasty shock both yesterday and today stating that now I owe them twice more than the original excess that had already been refunded.Also they stated that my insurance refusing to talk to them ooookkkk! Such a rude response indeed when you are...
I was astounded at how rude the call center staff were; not to mention I've been trying to contact this company about an account... I was put through to an answering machine, and none of the email forms (I've sent 3) have been answered.
I wish this company would go bankrupt or to hell, they must have a sign in all there employee offices that says, be persists and annoying. They have no lives it should be banned for a recovery company to call you on private and annoy you the way these guys call 3 times a day
I received a text with a reference number. The number from which the text was sent is not connected. Alarm bells ring. Called the 1300 number from the web and see a rating of 1.3 out of 129 reviews, most warn of a SCAM, my thoughts too. The More
Repeated phone calls all hours of the day and evening demanding money for a nonexistent debt.
Clearly scammers trying to get me to pay an Optus bill I don't owe. Blocked their number because I'm sick of them calling and texting
DONT TRUST!!! THIS IS A SCAM COMPANY!!!
They have sent me a letter in the mail saying i have not paid for tolls from 8-12 months ago, I have definitely for all of them as i see them all online. They want to scam me for hundreds of dollars!!!!
DO NOT GIVE THEM YOUR DETAILS
Can I give 0 Stars? They refused to give me the details of the business that our business "owed" money to. They did not listen! They are robots that will not deviate. They have "policies" not based on any legislation and are virtually made up. They refuse to communicate in writing, pass on debt ...
This company are scammers! DO NOT PAY THEM A CENT! They CLAIM to be the Australian Taxation Department BUT are simply a Debt Collection Agency which add on thousands of dollars worth of fees to your original debt. DONT RESPOND to their letters of demand or harassing phone calls.
Scammers, keep on calling my daughter s number, they are using a private number so one can t even see a number they are calling from. Asked them for a number to call them back on today, they said they would text it to me, of course no text. DO NOT DEAL WITH THEM!!!!! They all have Indian accents. Wo...
Absolute scum company. First of all I got a text from them: "MR *my name* (I'm not a Mr lol) recoveriescorp has an important matter for your attention click the link to view" and did they not even attach a link, I thought it looked like a failed scam and ignored. Fast forward a few days, and I start...
Don t bloody ask me for my personal information when you can t verify who you are or the purpose of your call and who you represent it is a against policy for me to share personal information for the purpose of privacy protection, if you wish to do business with me you are required to provide inform...
This is a Scam company! . First off they were harassing me by ringing me 4 or 5 times a day Monday to Friday from a private number. And then because I eventually answered, they wanted me to confirm my full name, postal address, phone number and email address. This is what leads to identity theft and...
A lady from this company called me asking for my date of birth and my address. She was insisting on getting these information without providing me with any information. They sounded like scam. Don't trust them and don't provide them with any personal details.Cheers!
Just received a letter for unpaid tolls from this company saying I owe them money. Funny, I have all my receipts of paying the tolls. This company is a complete scam. If you do receive a letter from them saying you owe them money, DO NOT PAY IT. It is horrible how this company can do this to people....
Extremely rude with very little knowledge. I spoke to a woman by the name of Jez who had very little manners and insulted me numerous times. She also failed to send me the biller code for bpay after I asked her to twice. I dont want to have to deal with them again.
Absolute scam, don't answer their calls, block their numbers and don't pay them a cent and or give them your details ever!! They take your money so beware!
These are nothing more than thugs. Ombudsman is the next port of call.
Wish I could give them 0 stars, unhelpful, rude, and unable to supply any relevant documents. The sooner this company folds the better.
I have not had that much contact with this company yet. But after reading all the reviews, how can this business still be operating. I have been sent an amount of nearly $7000 to be collected in a week supposedly from an insurance company who s process is to contact you themselves. Who I have yet to...
these people are the stand over merchants, we have given them all the legal paperwork to the actual bad debtor that they need to seek in relation to a fraudulent telephone account and even the police link number and yet they still ring us daily even trying to get us to do deals on half the money or ...
Without eluding to what the matter concerns and refusing to disclose who they are acting on behalf of, I was asked to verify personal details over the phone in order to proceed. Im not an idiot, so I declined to do so. I was told I'd continue to receive calls until I complied. I have no outstanding ...
Would not listen to a word I tried to say. They just repeated the same thing over and over while I tried to ask about something completely different to what they were saying. Truly making a stressful situation much worse
Got a call Saturday morning asking me to confirm my first name, which I did after they said they have a complete file on my name, address ect. After I confirmed my first name she wanted me to disclose my last name, email address and residency. Good joke.
Very rude and bullying. Would not listen and talked over me constantly.
Will be paying to Citylink directly - not giving them a cent
I did have debts 3 years ago to state debt recovery ive paid it off. Now this company is trying to tell me I haven't paid and it's been passed on to them.
I called them up on multiple occasions they have said I owe them money being different amounts. One lady said I own $1,400 and a man said I owe ...
who are they, why have they been calling me asking me for my details since i have been 17. Do not give them anything!!! they are only criminals nothing else. I have no debt, finances or a mortgage and they can't tell me why they are calling or where they are calling from.
I have never paid a fine so quickly just so I didn t have to have any communication with the people that work for this company. They have no idea what is going on! I kept getting return calls asking for payment that I had already processed and when I called them back (had to call the mobile number b...
Received an outstanding invoice from the company. We have only one account with Optus. Pay monthly and on time. Thank goodness we googled the company on line and checked the reviews.
I have to say, that I have always paid for my telephone bills and I received their private number, the connection was weak and they got my name wrong and then immediately asked me for my privacy details, when I understandably refused to do so and asked that some written communication be sent to my r...
Unprofessional , poor communication written and verbal
the worst company I ever seen
you deserve no star or less
They are chasing me on behalf of Optus with a ghost account. After explaining I have no account with Optus (Optus confirming no infringements) they keep calling one incompetent person after the other, right up to the managers. They call on many different numbers harassing you from 9am til 6pm. Thi...
Scam company rings my number for someone else what has my name and number got to do with this. I have no idea
Engaged these stains to chase a debt for us, charged us a fee upfront even when we advised we weren t going ahead and have refused to return our money and ignored our emails.
Totally illegal operation. Doesn t even seem to have landlines and only calls odd mobile numbers.
Have taken them to co...
Every time they call I try to explain to them the pain and suffering they are bringing back to themselves through Karma by working for a company that consistently harasses people who are already going through tough times.
A bunch of useless turds, chasing & threatening ordinary people who are being ripped off by major banks, Telcos & carriers, utility providers
Always ask them to provide proof of the debt
Ask them to provide signed copies of terms & conditions from ISP's or carriers, or verified voice recordings th...
I had someone call me from this number and spoke to me in a foreign language. I had no idea I had an outstanding bill on a toll until I called back to see who the missed call was from! I don't trust giving my details to anyone who can't even communicate with me
Bad company, fraudulent and poor business practices, I encourage everyone to use AFCA and report this company
Do not trust them!! They called me asking for my personal information because I "owe Virgin Mobile money" (which I do not know about) and threaten me with legal actions if I don's pay up.
Broke Federal laws by calling and identifying themselves as another company.
Scumbags. There is nothing good left in those people. Spoke to supervisor, Margaret Kean, she promised to call the dogs off. Let's see...
Yet another shady company buying old debt for cents on the dollar and harassing people to take food off their table. In nature this is what we call a Parasite.
If you haven't already, block private numbers.
Was told I owed money to CityLink for a suspended account (which I knew about) and that I couldn t pay it straight to CityLink, and that it needed to go through them. Called CityLink 5 minutes later and was told I could indeed pay the money directly to them. On top of this Recoveries Corp tried to c...
They do not care about your situation whatsoever.... I made a mistake with centrelink years back and im treated like a criminal. This company is worse than GE.... And they are BAD!!
DO NOT WORK HERE!! NOT WORTH IT AND YOU GET PAID PEANUTS. MICROMANAGED AND THE TRAINING YOU RECEIVE IS VERY LITTLE BUT THEY EXPECT YOU TO KNOW EVERYTHING WITH VERY LITTLE FEEDBACK ON PERFORMANCE UNTIL YOU STUFF UP AND GET IN TROUBLE. MANAGER WAS NOT APPROACHABLE AT ALL.
very bad customer service ..... they just apologize for incorrect amount then I had proof....so i better hang up straight away because they looked pretender and so Uneducated person No wonder lot of Bad Review
Disgusting.... Mannerless
I agree with Jeremy (other complainer) take to the court . ...
this is the worst experience I have ever had when answering a phone call. 1 star review is actually over rating. the staff is no manner, they don't listen and don't know what is going on! couldn't get any worse! extremely terrible company!
They are a bunch on scammers! Do not be afraid to fight their claims as they are lairs and try to bully people into paying non existing debts. My lawyers proved that they are liers. Do not let them bully you.
Pretty sure this is scam, been now receiving sms and emails. They said i had a outstanding AGL bill, call AGL they did not know the referance number and any outstanding bill. They confirmed they do not work with Recoveriescorp.
So far so good...
Helping me recover debts at a reasonable cost.
No interest in IT Security. I received a scam email from a name that apparently does not work at the company, and a reference number that is not valid. I had no debt referred to a mercantile agent so I called the company by phone - but when I tried to escalate the security breach to a manager there ...
I personally found them very professional, and very good at communication.
Been receiving letters, emails and constant phone calls from these scammers stating I owe $900 for an insurance claim against my name and a car that's apparently registered under my name and they want me to confirm all these details. Yeah good joke.
