In my state the repo man cannot move or touch another car even if it is in the way, you should haul them off to court for trespass and disturbing the peace. These are two of the many things I did to protect my rights and be repaid for the liability and or damage, done on me. I am no lawyer but I did this and it worked for me. I found out that the repo man was a contractor and did not have the correct permission to do anything to me whatsoever. The debt was sold to another collector for pennies on the dollar. In my case my credit report said written off as bad debt, I found out that this was an IRS filing of loss of an asset, therefore I expect that they got a break from the IRS, I reasoned this to be that they have collected on the bad debt and sold the asset to a third party. I am dealing with this third party now.

I had to deal with a pair of repo men when they came to get one of my employees cars.
They would not identify themselves so I told them to come back at 4:00 when my worker returned to the yard. They left but snuck back into my yard and hooked up the car and proceeded to side swipe one of my service trucks and then drive their tow truck into the storm water ditch. I contacted the police and they came out and it turned out that the tow truck driver had a warrant out for his arrest. They hauled him away and left me with a two hour mess getting this tow rig out of the ditch with an excavator. The other guy could not drive the tow truck because he could not drive a stick shift, he put me in touch with his boss who asked me if I could just move the truck out into the parking lot with my employees car still attached. I asked him about the damages to my service truck he said that he had know way of knowing if the damage was pre existing! So I had the other repo guy unhook the car so I could pull the tow truck out and when he did I pushed the tow truck out with the excavator and accidentally smashed the controls to operate the tow truck.
When he pointed out the damage I told him I had no way of knowing if the damage was pre existing!
What a bunch of dumbass's if they had just come back at 4:00 none of this would have happend.

Maybe you should just pay for the car? I dont have much use for attorneys or feel the need to "haul them off to court" My post was not intended to support your cause I was just commenting on repo men and their tactics. The damage I did to that tow rig was around $4500 based on what I know about truck and equipment repairs. The owner of the tow company called me the next day to see about what he could do to fix my service truck and wanted to know what I could do to fix his tow rig. Needless to say it was hilarious, I put him on the speaker so our staff coulf hear this guy ramble on about the unfourtunate situation and how things should have been handled in a differnt manner and could you pay for the repairs on my tow rig. I told him that as far as I knew the damage was pre existing! This guy lost his mind on the phone and started cussing me and blaming everything on my refusal to obey an order for reposession!

It is a great story and sometimes we tell it and laugh our asses off.

Daily Horoscope for December 29

Gemini

It's easy to become distracted and confused because your mind is wandering about in all sorts of different directions. You're also in a highly impressionable state so will believe almost anything you're told now, whether it's true or a total flight of fancy. Be wary of muddling others by only telling them half the story or letting your imagination fill in any gaps.
