      Good afternoon BBB and ***************************, 

      Thank you, ****************** for providing the receipt.  We posted the payment here on 2/20/2023 and forwarded it to our client and as you will see from the docket it was posted on their end as well.  I would suggest contacting the court to see what might be holding up your registration block or contacting the BMV.  Capital Recovery Systems, Inc. (CRSI) sent payment to the court and it was entered on their end on 2/21/2023,  I hope that helps!  

      Good luck to you.

      I have never done business with this company. They keep calling and telling me of missed court dates of numerous cities in my area. Harassment charges will be filed, if the calls continue. They can't give me proof of anything and nothing has ever been mailed to me!

      Good morning BBB and ******* ****, 

      This is Capital Recovery Systems, Inc. (CRSI) collection agency.  We collect primarily for courts around the country.  I looked in our collection software but the phone number ###-###-#### does not exist so you will not receive another text from us.  Replying "STOP" to any text from CRSI will cease all text communications.  We do not have the name ******* **** in collections either so it must have been a wrong number and I apologize for the trouble. 

      Thank you for the opportunity to improve our procedures and take care of this matter as swiftly as possible.  

      Sincerely,

      This company sent me a bill with a collections notice stating that if I did not notify the office within 30 days it would be taken to court. When I contacted the number it immediately tried to sell me health insurance and would not stop attempting to sell the health insurance. As well as a medical emergency device. This company used an intimidation tactic sending a collections notice to get me to contact them so they could try to sell me something stating that they were a collections company.

      Good Afternoon BBB and ****** ******, 

      This is Capital Recovery Systems, Inc.  We are a third-party debt collection agency primarily for Courts in Ohio and surrounding states.  Your attachment shows that you received the first notice from us on behalf of our client **** **** ******  The notice is advising you of your Miranda Rights wherein you have 30 days to dispute the debt or ask for validation of the same.  

      I tested the telephone numbers listed on the letter with my personal cell phone and had no trouble getting through but I have had issues before with contacting other companies at times.  I assure you we are not a health insurance agency nor are we interested in selling insurance and I'm sorry that your call was cross-circuited with a different company.  If you continue to have the same issue you can either contact Peru City Court directly; access their website to review your accounts; or, text us to the number: ***** and in the message type OPTIONS.  Alternative phone numbers are:  ###-###-#### or ###-###-####.  Our customer service representatives in our collection department will be glad to help you.   

      I'm sorry this has happened to you and upset you to the point of a BBB complaint.  It is never our intention to cause complaints.  Please give us the opportunity to help you by using one of the above options and we will try to answer all of your questions about the **** **** ******  

      Thanks and have a great weekend.

      Received two texts from someone claiming to be CRSI debt collector saying I owed $167.70. The only thing I could think of was medical bills but I’ve paid all my medical bills. I never received formal documentation through the mail about owing anything either. There was also a phone number and link included in the message which I didn’t touch. I would like to no longer be contacted because I believe this is a scam and I received these messages on Christmas.

      I received a call from ###-###-#### stating that they’re a debt collector on behalf of the ********* court and gave me a different number to call back and a reference number. I have never been to ********* in my life so I haven’t a clue how I’d have debt owed to them.
