They are calling us about a bill that isn't even ours...so your logic goes out the window, smartass.

These people are harrassing innocent people who don't always owe what these jacktards say they owe.

Know the entire story before you chime in and assume.

Necesito hablar con un representante de ustedes pero el número ke ponen no puedoarcar

and Ronnie is still my bi***.....haha

get off your knees bro and put some chap stick on those lips, s*** is starting to get a little rough on my dick.

If you would pay your bills no one would be calling you.

This s*** is hilarious.....lmao. I've been gone from there for over a year and they still can't get over me....lol look here Ronnie Cantu, you weren't s*** as a collector or a person. You were fired because you couldn't collect, couldn't collect on retail at that. And if you can't collect on retail you're not a collector, you're a telemarketer you dumbass.....lol. You were pathetic too be honest. You lived just to get high and escape your meaningless reality that is your life.

As for "hitting on my girl" as you call it.....lol well first of all she wouldn't talk to anyone that uses the high school term "hitting".....lol 2nd, youve got to be making 6 figures consistently to be on my level, what did you make a year, 16k??? what are you making now??? exactly!!. Remember, you worked for me, not me for you stupid....lol and sure I was only there because I had a billion dollar client, if not for that I would have been at my house in Houston and not tolerating illegitimate f**cks like you, but I needed bi****s like you to work my client and guess what, you did. You were my bi***. You were then and you still are now!!

And you've got to be kidding about me not having a job or whatever your illiterate a** was trying to say. You right, I won't get a job, cause I own my own company and I provide jobs, not look for them. So Ronnie boy, whatever has you still thinking about me after all this time, you need to let it go. Stop being like a stalker and showing female tendencies, man up, grab hold of your balls and earn your place in corporate America before you get mad at others for having a life you only wish you had. It's not going to just come to you, you've got to actually get off your a** and work for it lazy f**k.

Kinda the way I did to get that huge client you mentioned.....lol

Get off the Internet, go back to school (check your simple misspellings)...school should be a priority gay boy. Then get a job, ya know....mopping floors or something. Not at my company cause even my janitors are educated, but get one somewhere. Once you've managed to at the very least do that, then come see me. I'm in Houston, everyone knows where I live and where my office is, just ask one of your lowlife friends.

I look forward to you coming here so we can see what a man you are.....lol

Oh, and Valerie says hi little boy.....haha

Get the f**k outta here....lol

Lol karma for being a hater your lucky I didn't hit on your girl you will also will never  have a job where you tough you where god peace pay back is a bi***!

Still cooling down from these jacks$$', they called me on an ambulance bill from MedCare EMS where my daughter had been transported 6 months ago and the bill taken care of 1st a girl called playing the law firm gig andsome how knew better, the bill was $904,00 and they were willing to wave the over $400,00 penalities and intrest if I would give them bank info for draft payments, I told her she was out of line chargeing almost 50% I requested a bill be sent with breakdown she got ugly and said i could come by and pick one up she gave me an address of 3120 point center, edinburg Texas, which is just behind DHR hospital, I happen to be 3 mins away, they were quite supprised when I walked in front door, a little excuse of a man named Tony Moore, handed me a letter of amount of $1310.08 I requested a breakdown of his charges and he refused, I made a page of notes and he tried getting sassy I ask him if he went to lunch and ordered a $10 meal and then went to pay and it was $20 would you not want to know why? He walked away this is a shady company and worse people , I will be filing complaints with the state and I would encourage yall to do same,

I used to work for a company called Fletcher, Goldmen, & Ross.  It is run by a guy called Travis Dubcak who "used" to work for PPS.  Based on the info in this website, it appears he used the name, "Travis Powers" at PPS.  He claimed he left because they were not paying people and he didn't want to be involve in that.  It was B.S.  If you check corporationwiki you'll see he was the one the registered the company, and is co-director of two phantom companies recently created.

The more you research these people, you'll see they run a scam network.  They register several companies in advance, so they continue to operate under new legal names once their current name is burned.  Since they register LLCs, they are not personally liable for any debt left behind.

I only worked there two weeks, but it was enough to see it was not a legitimate collections agency.  I was given a list of clients who fired PPS, and I heard pretty disturbing stories of people who didn't get their money after PPS collected for them.

Travis is now pretending to be Jay Fletcher, but there is no one with that name in the company, nor is there anyone named Goldmen or Ross.  They just name their companies like that to pretend they are law firms.  

Travis Dubcak and Fletcher, Goldmen, & Ross are currently in collections at the Texas workforce, because he pretended my paycheck got lost in the mail to not pay me.  I know there is at least one more girl who was hired for the same sales position I was at, and also did not get paid.

I was not in charge of calling people to collect, but I overheard a collections women impersonating personnel from the law office of the building where they were renting the office space, which is borderline illegal... specially because she threatened to sue people without having the intention or ability to do so.  It is against federal law for a collection agency to threatened to sue without really intending to do so.

DO NOT fall into their trap.  If you pay them, and they keep the money, you will still owe the balance, because there wont be any record of you paying.  They'll just claim the system crashed like they said before.

Do not pay them. they are a fraud. seriously.  If you owe money, work directly with the ambulance service.  

Legitimate collection agencies always send notification letters, so you may dispute the charges if you don't agree with them.   Then they'll send you proof that you owe the money.  

Please read my next comment for more info on this company.

They have called me several times and harassed me about $40 I owe to a doctor of mine that is actually no longer alive. When I told her I googled their office and found out some interesting info, she said, "well, people who don't pay their bills wound say that." Seriously?? She knows nothing about me. I never paid the doctor because I felt very uncomfortable around him. These people are evil. They present themselves as lawyers, practically threaten you and they are nothing but a third party collection agency.

pay where you owe directly, put them out of business, they will not get their percentage l

Just a piece of advice. A collection agency will never send statement or bills. That's who they are COLLECTIONS not billing. By the time your are in collections the companys have already sent you many many statements and didnt take care of it with them so now you want a bill. they are not billing and they are not in the same location. I work collections but I dont work the easy way as making pymt arrangements. Im after the full amount. that's how everyone works. These guys are the lenient one's. they take pymts. that's nonesense. that opportunity was already given to you by the actual company you didnt take it and now you want a bill. Call the company and pay these guys or the compay. but pay your bill. stop asking for a bill when it was already provided to you. Stop stalling the payment. you already did it once to many times. Maria pay your bills as soon as you get them and than it wouldn't be in collections. A collection agency will never send you a bill but will provide you with documentation that it paid.

Well shameful to say they are idiots when all they are trying to do is help you get rid of your bill so noone will call you for years. These idiots as you say do not owe this bill. These idiots pay their bills. so now you tell me who is the idiot. If you owe man up and pay up. services are not free. If you owe you're going to get called by someone. So why get upset if you didn't owe you wldnt be upset. If you didnt get your payroll or payment for something that is owed to you would you feel this way? it's the same thing you owe someone money so payup and sure list them on do not answer but there are ways  to locate you. I've been through it. I'm paying on a 2003 debt and the calls have stopped. NOTHING NOTHING NOTHING IS FREE IN THIS WORLD!!!!!!!!!!1

This number has been calling me, they claim that they are a collections agency from a Medcare Ambulance Service.  I tell them that they need to send me a bill and that my car insurance will cover the bill.  They have yet to send me a collections bill so I just disregarded this phone call.  The have been harassing me and my insurance company and this needs to stop.  The lady's name is Victoria and she claims shes with the office of Preston Powers and Stone she just called and yelled at me and she said to google the information of the ambulance Service, and i told her well dont you have that information and she started yelling so i just hung up

Ur fu;n stupid then bro I went and titties hanging out and a bunch of little punks dressed in shorts and pants of yea dumb a** their lidgit...lmfao

If they say Dr. it's the Dr. at the ER anyone in elementary will know that. it's up to you to act dumb. stop posting nonesense and pay your bill. Nothing is free.

These idiots keep calling me. I do have a bill and have been paying consistently.  As long as you are faithful with your medical bills whatever the amount you are paying, these idiots cannot touch you - be they a legal firm (which they are not) or a collection agency, which most likely they are.  The law cannot charge you interest for a medical bill for an outstanding med bill which you are paying.

Remember folks, these idiots are just that..idiots.  Somehow they're getting paid to do the devil's work.  They probably couldn't get hired at Lowe's or Home Depot so they aggravate real working people.

On your contacts list them as Do Not Answer and when they call.....don't answer.

Good luck.

That threat of litigation may well have been empty, therefore a violation of your rights. It should be clear from this thread that you are not dealing with an honorable collector. You never, ever hand over the keys to your funding sources to any threatening stranger on the phone, particularly one motivated to keep bleeding your accounts until they are dry.

By written notice you have control over where and when these clowns call, if you let them call at all, and you should dispute this claim. You are entitled to proof of claim and fair treatment, else the collection agency is NOT entitled to your assets.

This company has been non stop calling me on my phone, work phone, parents phone (wh I have not lved with in over 20 yrs. Some guy from mccallen said it was was an 'out of courr' settleemnt before it goes to court and needed my CC information so I can settle a debt. I was ready to pay and he told me hold one while he talks to the client. A minute later he said fine amd I hesitated in which he got impatient.  Very unprofessional.will be reporting to the bbbb.looks as tho they have many complaonts but my work is gettog pissed!

Well all this complaints. If people would pay their bills you wouldn't get called. nothing is free in this world. I used to get upset when they called me but bottom line is services were provided. At no time did they say they were free. stop complaining to get out of your debt and pay your bills. you might sleep better.

well they told me i owed money to a doctor and when i went to the doctors office to ask for a medical statement they told me i was never billed for anything since i was referred to the ER. so i think your full of it.

I dont!

Ok this borders between shameful and hilarious. I noticed that someone had found the time in their day to go out of their way to not only post a derogatory claim about a company that is untrue, but didn't even have the nerve to use their real name, instead said they were me. Shameful? Pathetic? Hilarious? You tell me.

Anyways, yes I did work for Preston Powers and Stone, no I was not fired but that is irrelevant at this point. I felt since people can somehow find the time to fabricate stories then at the very least I could take a few minutes to actually provide some truth.

First of all let's get this out of the way, even as a "former employee" I find it incredibly hard to lie "just because" or to bad mouth a company just because I didnt get my way which is the inspiration for the majority of these post. I know 90% of the people that posted here and they are all ex employees. Most of them I terminated personally. Whether it was misrepresentation, lack of performance or simple laziness it was in the company's best interest to part ways.

Apparently they have decided that the only way they could find any kind of so called retribution was to go on some blog site and bad mouth anyone and everyone that would not cater to their needs or empower their negative traits. To each his own I suppose.

But everyone needs to understand that these days anyone can say anything about anyone for any reason at all and make it public knowledge. Shamefull? Pathetic? Hilarious? I don't know, you tell me. I would suggest in all business dealing to not trust what some "anonymous" person says on the Internet and instead go to the source so that intelligent business decisions can be made, not emotional, vengeful, deceitful or vindictive ones that can hinder the economic process of "business"

To sum it up I will briefly touch on the so called "non payments" to clients.

What these people aren't telling you is that there certainly were times when a check was not cut to a "client", they're not telling you why.

Most clients in this business place thousands of accounts at a time. Collectors spend hours upon hours working these accounts for the client. Some payments are made to the agency however many are also made to the clients. More often than you'd think, clients don't report those payments being made even though the agency, such as Preston powers and Stone were the ones that got them in the door to make those payments.

Any good collecton agency will be able to identify these accounts because they are consistent in working their a counts. Now remit rolls around and the client is expecting a certain dollar amount on that check, of course they do and they certainly deserve it if it's due, but what they have neglected to mention is any and all agencies have what's called "offset". If my collector finally got your debtor on the phone after years of him running from you and motivates him to walk into your office with check in hand, then my collector deserved the agreed upon percentage. A contract is a contract and it goes both ways. So abc client may be keeping that 5k payment on the hush hush because now he wants to pocket the entire thing and figures what they don't know won't hurt them, but as I stated before, any good agency knows because they are consistently working your accounts. So the agency of course charges their agreed upon percentage and deducts it from abc clients remit check.

The client gets this check and thinks oh no this is right, there's money missing and inquires as to the reston, most clients completely understand it when explained and acknowledge it as fair. As "per contract" , however , just like some ex employee that becomes disgruntled because they were "exposed" they feel a need to lash out because something didn't go their way and they got caught doing something they shouldn't have been doing. Shameful? Pathetic? Hilarious? I don't know, you tell me.

Anyways I think everyone gets the point. How many "great" blogs do you see about any company? How many great ones do you see about your company? Very few if any at all because they usually don't take time to come on here and post their experience because it's not in their mind. They aren't looking for payback. Vindictive people use alot of energy coming up with ways to hurt others instead of using that energy on improving themselves.

So say what you like in response to this , but the great thing about the truth is it stays consistent.

Good day everyone!

The Real Gary

I did some research.

Gary, you were fired because you  were a manager who NEVER MANAGED. You only tried to help yourself and not the company. Once the Owner and Managers found out that you were neglecting your duties, you were let go for your misconduct. Getting to work 3 hours late and leaving 3 hours early, or Not even showing up at all was bad judgment on your part. Anybody else would have gotten first INSTANTLY - but Preston Powers and Stone tried to help you numerous times but you failed to listen

don't go ruining a companies name because they fired you. YOUR WERE FIRED FOR A REASON. Also, not once did anybody bad mouth your reputation, so MAN up and apologize. This isn't high school

THAT'S WHAT I SAY...

I really can't believe some collection agencies...i recommend that any payments needing to be made go directly to the office where your services was rendered. DO NOT EVER GIVE OUT CHECK INFO OR SOCIAL SECURITY NUMBERS...OR ANY OTHER INFO BY PHONE. THESE PEOPLE HARASS AND HARRASS...THEY WANT YOUR MONEY. ALOT OF THEM ALREADY FILED AT THE END OF EACH YEAR AND COLLECT SOME COMPENSATION FOR NON PAYMENT.
AS FOR WHAT YOU WENT THROUGH AND MIGHT STILL BE GOING THROUGH CANCER...TELL THEM YOU WILL MAKE PAYMENTS...EVEN 10.DLLS A MONTH IS SOMETHING...IT'S NOT LIKE IF YOU ARE NOT PAYING. THEY ABUSE PEOPLE IN SUCH A HARSH WAY! THEY COLLECT SOME PERCENT FOR ALL THE DEBTS PAID. LORD BLESS YOU.

Gary, I need location information for the office, NOT the mailing address.

This is written by Gary a man who used to work for preston powers and stone and was fired. The company is a major scam, sure they do collections but I wouldn't give them my money. If you owe pay the people you owe NOT preston powers and stone. They are criminals I swear by it.

I also have a messege from these people with the same 956-429 -3034..I have no idea why theyre calling but I looked up the lawfirm and it doesnt exist.....hmmmm. I do know I wont be returning their call

This company has also not paid on accounts collected for my husbands business.  I just got off the phone with our local police dept who said that since you have a signed contract with the company it is not a criminal but rather a civil matter.  So you would have to take them to court to get your money.  If you do not want to do that or are not in a position to do that you can  work on getting this company shut down by filing complaints with the BBB as well as the Attorney Generals office in TX.  If enough people complain they would have to investigate the company and maybe get them shut down.
