Provest does work for foreclosure attorneys. If you get a call from them it is because they are trying to find someone related to a foreclosure. Most people think if you avoid service when you are being foreclosed on it goes away. Nothing can be further from the truth. The attorneys have a legal obligation to find all parties and serve them with notice. If you avoid the service Provest files an affidavit of diligence and the notice is published. Once published and you still don’t respond the process goes on and you lose your house. Also by law they have to find anyone that the debtor may owe money to. EXAMPLE: You sue someone and win. The person you sewed never pays you. They go into foreclosure. You can file a claim against proceeds of the property sale to be paid. If you avoid service you lose. If you get a call it is because by law they have do a diligent search to find you. This means calling neighbors, family, employment and any other place you may be. It is required for the affidavit of diligence if you can’t be found. Know this. The only ones that win in a foreclosure is the attorneys. They are the ones that are the blood suckers. To coin a thought. WHAD DO YOU CALL 1000 ASTTORNEYS AT THE BOTTOM OF THE RIVER. “A GOOD START”

All info. will be kept confidential if desired. I am trying to build a case against them because they claim they served me a summons when I WAS ACTUALLY OUT OF TOWN.

My sister's husband got a message from this number looking for my wife's ex husband. I cannot think of any possible way they would make the connection to my sister. They have never met or have had any communication what so ever. Very strainge indeed.

| Melinda 2011-06-06 21:08:25 Unknown |
They asked for Melvin, which is my husbands name. This was very odd because our number is in my name. I said he wasnt available, and they told me "I'm trying to find the Melvin who owns property on Brentlock." I said "thats not him." and she said "oh, sorry." and hung up. Very weird.

Received call from that number 26Aug08.Didn't answer.My 'voice message' fm them was a hangup.Just so you all know,there are commercial databases out there available to those who purchase their services.Those databases are based on info gleamed from credit/charge card applications where YOU provide 'references' (friends,relatives,neighbors), YOUR SSNs, DOBs, etc. Your neighbors' info is retrieved from paid-for USPS databases (addresses near yours).Then they go back into these other commercial databases (i.e. AutoTrak, Lexis/Nexis) and simply run/retrieve other addresses, names, SSNs, DOBs, relatives and their info, etc). It's pretty simple stuff (all linked by SSNs). Some of the companies such as ProVest probably buy 'collections' in bulk where other companies have been unsuccessful in collecting. Some are just scam artists calling/mailing in bulk, hoping to scare someone into paying 'long-forgotten' bills/late fees, etc. (my daughter encountered one of those two years ago).The latest thing is these companies trying to get people who unknowingly bought 'counterfeit' embroidery files on eBay (illegal to sell; not to purchase, by the way...I've since found out).They say they are representing many sewing/embroidery companies who will sue for damages unless you give them $300-$600 (i.e.) now (they allegedly got eBay to turn over bulk buyers' records).Don't get scared...don't argue with them.If you have caller ID, just don't answer any unrecognized calls or return any mailings.Don't let your curiosity get the best of you.Don't threaten them...I'm sure they've heard it all and get a good laugh out of it.Now, if they start calling/mailing you at work...that's a different ball game and is against the law.Then you should contact your BBB and Secretary of State...whatever is appropriate in your area.

used to work for them too.... they are full of illegal practices.... wanted me to cut and paste summons for service so they would get out faster.
they are also terrible to employees... the "standards" are unobtainable. they claim they are a good company, but they allow the supervisors to bully employees and make email threats, some to inflict physical harm if they don't meet those standards, hence the cut and paste stuff.
| far away 2011-06-06 21:08:25 Unknown |
Yes this company is trying to gather information for foreclosure proceedings to serve legal paperwork. I used to work for them and they use some illegal practices. Don't answer the phone, and if you happen to, don't give any info!!!!!!!!!!They are sneaky as hell and would sell out their own grandmother if given the chance!!!!!! They will say anything to get info. If you happen to answer and want to have a little fun with them, ASK them a bunch of questions, they will get stuck!!!!!!!! I wait for the day when they get put out of business for all the illegal practices......
| north carolina 2011-06-06 21:08:25 Unknown |

I feel for you! They screwed me over also as a server for 12 years. Their so called managers/owners are out of control and run over everyone. My business will still be okay, but I had to lay off people who where my friends because Provest said they were "going in a different direction." I hope it's straight to hell. They most likely just have their tails between their legs and are running for the door as the state investigators are rolling in. The shareholders will sell out and get theirs though, you can be sure of that. They just screwed over a delivery service out of Tallahassee last month forcing them out of business.
| provest sucks 2010-12-14 02:34:35 Unknown |
Yes "Defender". Provest is a very shady company. They don't care about their own people, much less anyone else. They are always trying to screw anyone anyway they can to make that buck. And their shareholders don't care about the people breaking their necks to jump through all their hoops. Hate them with a passion. All of their sub-contractors hate them but can't say anything because provest holds them with one-sided contracts that simply say - we'll do what we want and lower your pay and you just do what we say or we'll put you and your employees out of business. Yes, they suck.

they called my neighbor asking about me and the previous owner... I pay all my bills and we did a title search before we bought, so I have no idea what they want. Also, not sure why they called my neighbor when I'm in the book... just google me and I pop up...
Whatever

I worked for Provest LLC in 2008, as it was one of the only jobs I could find. I have decades in mortgage banking, and due to the meltdown I had to take anything. And no, I didn't contribute to the meltdown, in fact I won a whistleblower suit with one company. I fought for decent loan practices.
Part of the reason there may have been illegal service of summons is due to the pressure they place on employees... Volume is heavy, not enough servers, and people are difficult to locate. However, Provest wanted to meet their numbers, and make their money.
This pressure on employees was also due to the fact the company allowed superrvisors to harass employees. Constant threats of write-ups, public "floggings", yelling, swearing and the most low class supervisors I have ever dealt with. I have been a manager, and this behavior was deplorable. And these managers I had were so stupid they wouldn't even know what "deplorable" meant.
It was one of the worst jobs in my life. They fired me for no reason, and denied my unemployment claim. However, I eventually won, and proved how stupid they were to that agency.
Lets put it this way, nothing is nice about this company... And they will get caught eventually.

I got a call from them asking for info about a family member. I know for a fact that the house is going into forclosure so they must be looking to serve papers. The got my wife's cell number and my work number (don't know how). I guess the information is out there if you know where to get it...
| get a life 2010-05-01 03:02:20 Unknown |
If they are being sued, please provide the state, court and docket number. I would be interested in getting informed like you are informed.

I even work here and I agree with the way below average....LOL
| annoyed 2010-04-23 16:05:11 Unknown |
This same number just called my husband's cell... but I'm 100% current on my mortgage and always have been... so don't know why they would be calling. I'm current on everything. Not answering this call.
| MAEWEST 2010-04-22 20:15:02 Unknown |
WE PAY OUR BILLS IDIOT............DON'T CALL US LOOKING FOR OTHERS!!! YOU WON'T GET ANY COOPERATION WHEN YOU CALL ASKING FOR SOMEONE'S PERSONAL INFORMATION. USE OTHER RESOURCES-QUIT HARASSING OTHER PEOPLE!!
| MAEWEST 2010-04-22 20:11:45 Unknown |
SIMPLY FAX THEM A COPY OF THE FAIR DEBT AND CREDIT ACT.
| MAEWEST 2010-04-22 20:10:53 Unknown |
THEY STILL HAVE NO RIGHT CALLING NEIGHBORS, FRIENDS OR RELATIVES ASKING FOR PERSONAL INFORMATION ON SOMEONE ELSE.......IF THEY THINK THEY WILL GET COOPERATION THEY BETTER THINK AGAIN!!!
| MAEWEST 2010-04-22 20:06:44 Unknown |
If they are serving legal documents-their client (whoever the are) should have the information for service! If they don't have the information-they have NO right calling neighbors or friends asking for personal information on someone else.
