Beware of this collection agency. This company has used my name, address, and credit information to file a negitive credit report with Experian concerning an account and bill that does not belong to me. On approximately November 29th of 2018, Jeff from American Management Services made contact with concerning a debt that was referred to his collection agency that is in my name.
The debt was for lawn service that had been completed at a home where I rent a room. I do not own the home and I did not contract for the services. Jeff told me it was my responsibility and that it had been turned over for collection. I explained that he was wrong and that the debt was not mine. I explained that he had the wrong person and that I had never spoken to the Lawn Service company about hiring them for lawn service at the address of the home, because I do not own the home.
I am only a tennant. Jeff told me that he was going to disregard my request to settle this with the owner of the home and the individual who had directly contracted for the Lawn service and pursue collection from me. I told him that I would get with the owner of the home, and the person who contracted with the Lawn service to see if they would settle the debt but that he needed to take it out of my name. He refused and filed a negative report on my credit report with Experian.
I contacted the Lawn Service company and obtained the invoices for the lawn care that clearly shows that it is not in my personal name but in the name of the home owner and person whom contracted for the services. I then went back to American Management Services and told Jeff that the owner had offered to pay part of the bill and that he needed to contact the owner directly.
Jeff then sent me a new statement showing that American Management Services had not taken the statement or bill out of my name and continued to file negative reports on my credit. I have been turned down for financing for a very needed surgery that I must have because of this negative information on my credit report.

I am an accredited investor with a 30-year track record as a senior executive, board member and share-holder of a number of small and mid-sized companies in both Canada and the United States. In 2011 I became involved with one company in particular, a small construction subcontractor that in its 19-years of operation had never earned more than $200,000 in any one year, had the misfortune of engaging American Management Services in the Spring of 2010. At the time of the engagement the company's revenues had been in a 12-month free fall, the company was operating on the equivalent of financial life support from its bank, its' overhead had been pared to the bone, and its'workforce was no more than a skeleton crew. While the outlook at the time was surely bleak, what the company did have going for
it was the $275,000 cash nest egg it had managed to accumulate over years ofliving prudently managing its business prior to the 2009 recession. By coincidence the AMS "consultants" offered to recommend programs that "will improve your overall business operation." the company's billings under the part-time (two person) engagement quickly exceeded $250,000 in just 90-days before the company's owner realized that he had made a terrible error in judgment. AMS's work product was nothing more than a high pressure sole objective was to separate the client from the cash and with surgical precision.
While there may be some out there in America (possibly the Banjo builders from Tennessee) who had a different experience, it is my assessment American Management Services entire business model is by design and implementation predatory; in the extreme. Perhaps even the fertile ground for the certification of a legal class? SoCaveat Emptor, or better
still..just say no, to the The Business Survey TM.
