They can do their job without being rude. There is no need for them to act as though they are better than us. Don't get me wrong, there have been quite a few who are great. But do not treat me like I am a piece of ****.

In our case they were all nice. I was all set to fight with them, but it really wasn't necessary. They all said they understood, were sorry for our predicament and wished us luck! It wasn't bad at all. And I felt better like another poster said telling someone what was going on. I found out most of these people really don't like cc practices. The collection agencies were nice and wished us luck. Maybe our dealings with them was weird or out of the ordinary, but it seems like when I simply told the truth that we couldn't do this anymore, they all understood, it honestly made me feel better. Ofcourse keep in mind we had an attorney's name and number to give them. They did call him, but they didn't call us back.Filed Chapter 7 June 4 ~ 341 July 20 ~Last day of objections Sept 18~Discharged/Closed Sept 21

It is a relief, isn't it? After months of repeated calls--to where we didn't even bother to see who was on the caller ID, it was a relief to be able to give them my lawyer's info. As others stated, everyone was polite and professional--so far.
The only ones I am still getting are from Citi--they use an automated machine, so no chance to give the machine the info.

I get about 50 calls a day on my cell - most don't leave messages, but for every call it counts towards your minutes.

I wish the callers would get a little more training on the bankruptcy process. Some of them act as if it's one piece of paper you sign and the BK is filed.
When I told one creditor who called that I had met with an attorney I planned to use to file the BK, and could release his name as soon as I paid the attorney's fees....the caller said "Oh....so the bankruptcy hasn't been filed yet? So you're just THINKING about it."
(Emphasis was his)
I told him "No, I'm not just "thinking" about it, I just have a 3" stack of forms to fill out for this."
But all in all, I've been very surprised. They've all be very nice and seem sincerely concerned. Totally unexpected. Now if only automatic dialers were illegal...
