I have a CC debt from **** that I was previously making payments on with another law firm, my however, without warning, my account was then transferred to Rausch Sturm LLC. I have not received any information about my account since that time. Rausch Sturm LLC have not contacted me, have not provided any documentation regarding my file/account number, and have not answered my calls the last 4 out of the last 6 times that I reached out. The first time that I called, I asked for my file number, and they failed to provide it to me. I asked them to email me my documents but the lady that answered said that they could not send them to me by email, and then they asked for my address. So, they have my file and yet do not know where I live?The second time I called, they hung up on me mid sentence as I was trying to explain what I needed from them. The next 4 times that I called, I was put on hold and nobody ever answered and I was sent to voicemail. I left a voice message.I am seeking resolution of this issue via the following:1. Contact me to reach a mutual settlement, and set up a payment plan for me online within 48 hours.2. Send all documentation to me via email. I will NOT give you my address until I have legal documentation that states the mutually agreed upon settlement, the exact payment plan agreed upon, and documentation that states the payment plan cannot be altered or adjusted after the first payment has been made.If my reasonable requests listed above are not met, then I demand that my account be transferred to a debt collector that is communicative, honest, and responsible.Business response

So few months ago I went to court with Rausch Sturm LLP regarding a default on a card owned by Synchrony(****************) I was put on a payment plan of $50 a month my next review court date is 12/23/******* far i have only been able to make at best 2 payments because everytime I send a payment through they refuse to actually take the money out of my bank. And then they lock down my account EVERY MONTH!!. Their website also does not state what form of payment you can use. They will only accept a actual bank account because according to them it is more " secure " personally i think it is so they can make people default on the payment agreements and then they can garnish wages and get more money out of people. SO Monday I get to call their office AGAIN and have them process a payment AGAIN only for them to lock my account AGAIN and not actually take the payment out of my bank account AGAIN.If you are being sued by this law firm your best bet would probably be to contact a lawyer and countersue. The lawfirm is unprofessional.Business response

I paid Rausch Sturm $1,554.41 to clear my $1,142.95 debt with **************) Care Credit on Thursday, September 12, 2024. I was told that I would get a receipt via email 48 hours after the payment cleared. The payment cleared the next day (Friday). I called Monday to get the receipt. I was told to wait to receive it by end of day Tuesday (9/17/24). And to call back if I had not received it. I have been calling weekly to get this receipt as I need to prove that I've paid this debt.I called again yesterday 10/7/24, the representative was able to see that my debt was shown as satisfied with the court system. She stated that there shouldn't be anything holding up me getting the receipt. She told me again that it would be emailed to me in 48 hours. Then she stated that there an option to rush it so that I could get it later that day. It is now Tuesday, 10/8/24 and I still have yet to receive the receipt. This is unacceptable.Business response

I have made several payment arrangements, each one has had my payment information on file, one payment is collected and then they stop taking the payment there after. Set up another payment arrangement, 1st payment goes through and then stops again. This has continued to happen each and every time. Now they want the full amount which is $600 more than originally settled on to begin with. I had a little over $900 remaining. I have emailed to be contacted several times, in the emails tell them to take the automatic payment each month as agreed upon, still no correspondence. Did make a payment online beginning of September as well as another payment agreement, $506.70 and the payment has not come out of my account as of ********* you want to garnish wages?? Emailed Friday 9/27 asking for a representative to call me, No return phone call.Called 9/30 at 7:40pm, your hours are until 8:00 central time, sat on hold for 7 min 45 seconds only to say sorry we cant take your call. I did leave a message. By the other complaints filed against this company, I clearly am not the only one who cant seem to get through.Business response

I was sued and a garnishment of wages was initiated by the law firm on 5/20/24. I was garnished 20% of my paycheck and have now paid approximately $1600 over the stated settlement of garnishment. I requested an email showing what was still owed and what has been received on 8-21-24. No email or letter was ever received. I contacted the local ************** who was collecting and sending the payments and they attempted to make contact about the fulfillment of the payments via fax and have stated they havent heard anything back from the law firm as well. I have emailed and called the provided number to try to get answers but none are provided.Business response

I have reviewed the response made by the business in reference to complaint ID 22274568, and have determined that this does not resolve my complaint. For your reference, details of the offer I reviewed appear below.
I’ve attempted twice to make contact after complaint was filed via email. Finally Jason Patrick responded saying my garnishment was fulfilled but no timeline was given to return said funds and when to expect garnishment order to cease. My employer has even reached out in attempt to find out if they can cease garnishment and was told they would not talk to them. The garnishment has been well satisfied and has now been overpaid by $2000+ and still being garnished. As of 10/1/2024 I have not received any phone calls at all from rausch sturm
