My biggest problem

[Trish]

Ok,
I thought I would see if anyone might have ANY advice regarding my biggest PITA debt I am trying to get rid of.

*deep breath* (long story)
I had a car repo'd back in 2003 by Ford Motor Credit. This happened in TX.
They did what is, by law standards, an illegal repo. They came and picked it up and I never heard another word from them. No notices, no deficiency balance owed, no notice of sale.......nada.

Moved to WA and about 1 year later, got summons from CA.
Long story short - I fought and lost. We got sued for about 7K and now have a judgment.

I have disputed this acct (CO from FMC) until I am blue in the face. I've disputed everything from ownership (not mine) to balance (which they ever so nicely INCREASED), to DOFD........to date of repo......you get the picture.

It is scheduled to stay on my CRs until 2011. UGH.
I have tried contacting Ford but they won't deal with me because it was "taken over" by the jackrods that sued me.

My only other thought is to contact Ford's CEO with a letter (or email if I can find it). If I did this, though, I'm just not sure which way to approach it.
Nice and begging? Firm with laws to back me up? Agressive with overtones of an ITS?


Or if ANYONE else has ANY ideas.......I'm all ears!
I know if I can get this one off that it will make quite a positive impact on my score.

TIA,
Trish

Try a sweet letter to ford's ceo to start let him know what a jackass the repo guy was and the ca doubled the price you owed and you was sued and lost.And your sure that you don't want ford's good name to be linked to these jerks.You might try a goolgle search for the ceo.I hope this helps.

Holy cow! Guess what!!!!
I just found the big guy's email addy! *doing happy dance*
I have looked EVERYWHERE (for months) for this email.

Thank you jigsaw!!!!

Now I'm definitely going to be writing that letter.
Wish me luck!

[Trish]

Well, I did it.......sent the email *fingers crossed*
Guess we'll see what happens.

I'll be sure to update.

[Trish]

Oh and p.s........not sure really where to put this but this is an AWESOME site.
Tons of executive contacts that you don't normally find listed. I'm not kidding.......I was googling all different ways for months to find the email addy from here.

ANYWAY.....

Business Directory of Business Contacts and Company Information from Jigsaw

Good to have when you're writing those goodwill letters.

[Trish]

Grrrr........

Well, the CEO blocked my email. lol........hmpfff.
So I have sent out about 7 more emails to various VPs, CFOs, general counsel and a few executive assistants.

We'll see what happens. I'm sure to get on everyone's nerves before this is over.

I just checked my dh's CRs today and OMG!! EQ deleted the CO from FMC AND another CO that I disputed recently.

He now officially has one TOTALLY clean report!!!!! Wooohooo!!!!!

So I'm wondering if all of those emails are working?......or I just got lucky?
Can't wait to see what EXs and TUs results are!!
