Continental Collection Agency. Continental Collection Agency is the anal sphincter of collection agencies, especially Mike Montana -- he is truly the scum of the earth. I cosigned a 12-month lease for my son and daughter-in-law back in 2004. They honored that lease and upon renewal, I decided not to cosign. The complex accepted their renewal without my signing. When they breached the lease 6 months later, I received a phone call from a woman at Coldwell Banker Commercial asking me if I was going to take responsibility for my kids. I asked her what planet she was on. That angered her. 6 months after my son moved out, I started getting calls from Mike Montana. He told me that I had breached the lease. I tried to explain to him that I only signed up for the initial 12-month lease and that I was no longer obligated. He then wanted me to tell him the whereabouts of my son. I told him if even if I knew, I'd never tell him. I told him to find him himself because that's what he's getting paid to do and not to expect any help from me. He got frustrated and hung up on me. He kept calling me and writing his idiot letters. Whoever composed those letters must not have completed high school. I would have been embarrassed to sign anything like that because in doing so, you tell the world you're an idiot too, even if you weren't the one who wrote the letter. Then, I told him that I wouldn't consider anything unless he proved to me that I owed the money. He sent me another idiot letter with copies of the lease and a rider (which supposedly extended the original lease) which was only signed by my son and his wife. He also sent me the list of bogus damages and other charges. The 3 months rent and trumped up damages that my kids supposedly owed didn't nearly come to $5500. Since I refused to pay anything because I didn't owe anything, I told him to go to he!!. He threated to damage my credit. I told him if he did, I'd hire an attorney. He followed thru with his threat and damaged my credit. I hired a lawyer who examined all the documentation he sent me (the idiot!) and used that information against him. My attorney wrote to him and told him that he was in direct violation of the laws of the Federal Trade Commission and a couple of other things. He damanded that he correct the records of the 3 credit bureaus or he would be turned in and his business shut down. That was 4 years ago. Well, here comes Mr. Idiot Sphincter again. This time he located my son and has brought suit again him, only this time, the money is doubled (nearly $8,000). Since I have all that documentation he sent me in 2006, it's time to resurrect it again and shove it up his smelly, fat a$$. What a loser.

Like the majority of the people writing reviews here, there is no star for unethical business practices so I had to pick one so one star will have to do.

Absolutely Pathetic Thieves........ I contracted with this company to collect a debt from a tenant who skipped on her lease. She didn;t pay me, left anannounced, broke the lease, and left five thousant in damages that were caused by pets thaat were a definite restriction----NO PETS. This company claimed to have gotten a judgment on my behalf. I was very happy with that, although it took more than a year. I was working out of the region and got a call that was very time-consuming and costly to me from Continental telling me they lost the judgment. Why didn't they collect on it? I have never gotten a reason. I am finally reporting this copany to the Attorney General and BBB. Rude, Disrespectful? These people are the absolute worst that there is. I am shocked they are still in business.

NO RESPECT FOR WORKING FOLK. The reason I got into this financial mess with Continental Collection is not diputable by me. It was an Apartment that I broke a lease on. I had a roomate who broke the lease as well. He shares in the debt. CC couldnt find him so they came after me. My wages were garnished. After consenting that I had no choice but to keep my job and pay my debt, I asked SHERRY if my Former Roomate would be helping pay CC along with me. SHERRY told me my Former Roomate was unemployed. That was a lie. I knew he had a job, but they coulnt track him down. I asked Sherry for a decrease in my ganishment, currently at 25% weekly, if I could provide them with job status and address of FR, SHERRY agreed. It took a few months, but I eventually tracked FR down through mutual friends. I called CC and gave SHERRY the scoop. When I asked again for the decrease in garnishment, based on the information I provided, SHERRY changed her tune. She told me that I was offered a lump sum settlement if paid by July. Since I was offered the settlement and couldnt come up with the 2000 dollars by July, the decrease request was not accepted. Now I dont know if this is a fair business practice or not, but something is not right!!! I still have a balance of $1500, I have paid $2150(at 25% a week), and FR is still not being garnished!!!! Can someone help?

Poorly run, does anybody work there?. this place garnished my wages. they were too dumb to stop when the balance was paid. when i called for my refund, i was told it may take 2 months to get it! W-T-F?!?!?! Is that even legal? i called back to talk to a supervisor & was told they werent working. i called again & asked to talk to the owner and was told they werent working. WHO IS IN CHARGE AT THIS UNLAWFUL PLACE? does anybody even work there? must be the poorest run compny ever. i am reporting them & hopefully they will close soon & then no one will work their anymore.

what a treat!. after getting a report from the credit bureau that I owed money to an apartment complex I called this collection agency to inform them I've lived in the same house for the last 15 years and on which I've been paying the mortgage for these last 15 years..the manager Mike hung up on me after I would not agree that we had talked before last May..no conversation took place in May or at any other time and I've never heard of this apartment complex before.

Can I take them to court for this?
