OMG, HAPPY NEW YEARS to all of my friends at MANN BRACKEN, LLC! I would like to thank my personal friend Clayton Davis Moseley for giving me my opportunity to HELP (albeit every so small) BRING DOWN this GIANT JUNK DEBT COLLECTION SCHEME call:
MANNLESS BROCKEN, LLC
I have posted my little fingers off to get out the word to hundreds of people the address to complain on this FRAUDulant company. I have joined the CLASS Action against them in Minnesota, and now LOOK for a class action against JPMORGAN CHASE BANK who was part of the so called RING OF CROOKS!

Anyone in Maryland with a case pending against them where Mann Bracken were the attorneys for the creditor/debto collector should follow up in the next week or two to make sure that their case was dismissed. Unfortunately, sometimes a case or two falls thru the cracks at the clerk’s office in the courthouses.

I worked for these sons of b—– for 3 short months. When hired, I was promised a bonus after my 3 month probationary period. When the 3 months were up, of course, they renigged on the offer and I walked out that instant. So glad I did. Talk about karma…

I mailed a payment to the Huntersville, N.C. office -certified, return receipt. I am told by the post office that the mail was forwarded to another address. That the mail was picked up and signed for. However, I have not received the return receipt nor has my check been cashed.
What’s going on with the N.C. cases?

I also mailed my January payment into the Huntersville, NC office. My check is still outstanding. Who do I contact to find out about my case? Mann Bracken garnished my 2008 State income tax return. What happens now?

I actually had set up a monthly auto payment with them. I noticed that my December payment had not posted and have been trying to contact them via phone. Phone line gives a busy signal. The office I was dealing with was located in Concord, CA. I’m not sure what to do at this point. I had no idea this had occurred till today when I went looking for another contact number on the web. OMG….Can any one advise?
