HSBC lies to get a customers payment in Florida
CK in Florida says: “8 months ago my husband was in a severe accident and we got behind on line of credit from HSBC. On 9/10/07 I received a call from Robbie Cloud who told me if I paid them $300.00 right there out of my checking account it would take my account out of collections. I told him I wanted this in writing so then his supervisor, Michael Taylor, got on the phone. Michael Taylor told me they could not fax this but would send me a letter. I gave them my info over the phone. Today, 9/18/07, I received a call from someone else telling me I need to pay them more money. I told her the story and she told me she should sort this out. I told her if this was not correct I would report them to the FTC under the fair debt collection law. I told her I would follow suit. Tactics like this will not scare me and HSBC needs to be shut down.”
