Author Topic: Need Help Finding Information On A Company Richard Greco Phenomenal Film Handler Posts: 1180 From: Plant City, FL Registered: Nov 2003 posted 06-27-2006 12:49 PM                     Hey all, I just checked my bank records and found a transaction I don't recognize. All I know is that it is similar to an earlier transaction that I know about, but it is the same price. I don't know what this company is/does, but I'm sure I didn't make the charge... The company name is : RSS Inc and they're out of Illinois. I've tried Googling it and am just getting information about RSS feeds. Any ideas on where I can go to get information about this charge would be helpful, my bank is also looking into this, but I want to do some research too. Thanks  |  IP: Logged Allison Parsons Jedi Master Film Handler Posts: 630 From: East Peoria, IL Registered: Oct 2004 posted 06-27-2006 12:58 PM                        Does it give you any clues on what town their from?  |  IP: Logged Richard Greco Phenomenal Film Handler Posts: 1180 From: Plant City, FL Registered: Nov 2003 posted 06-27-2006 01:03 PM                     No, just from Illinois  |  IP: Logged Dennis Benjamin Phenomenal Film Handler Posts: 1445 From: Denton, MD Registered: Feb 2002 posted 06-27-2006 01:12 PM                        It's odd, I couldn't find anything in Illinois. But I did find the below company, which is located in Plant City, Florida: RSS Field Service Incorporated Plant City, FL 33563 (813) 754-7160  |  IP: Logged Mitchell Dvoskin Phenomenal Film Handler Posts: 1869 From: West Milford, NJ, USA Registered: Jan 2001 posted 06-27-2006 01:19 PM                     There are a LOT of RSS Inc's online. Go to google and search "rss inc" illinois.  |  IP: Logged John Pytlak Film God Posts: 9987 From: Rochester, NY 14650-1922 Registered: Jan 2000 posted 06-27-2006 02:23 PM                        What was the transaction for? Maybe you bought something from a company that was part of RSS? Use your search engine with more keywords than just the company name. Like RSS Inc. AND the name of the product/service. I once made a short credit card call from the Amsterdam airport, and got significantly overcharged for it by some company in San Diego. I protested the overcharge, and they never responded to the credit card company. The credit card representative seemed to know of them as soon as I protested the charge.  |  IP: Logged Richard Greco Phenomenal Film Handler Posts: 1180 From: Plant City, FL Registered: Nov 2003 posted 06-27-2006 03:11 PM                     quote: John Pytlak What was the transaction for?

Is it worth it? Some companies use their registered name rather than their trading name on these transactions.  |  IP: Logged Phil Hill I love my cootie bug Posts: 7595 From: Hollywood, CA USA Registered: Mar 2000 posted 06-28-2006 01:26 AM                  quote: Ron Curran My credit card company charges a fee for that. Hmmm, I'd be changing Creditcard companys if they did that shit! Anyway Richard, I was under the impression it was your bank and not a CC company? I use online banking and my by bank (Bank of America) lists the company and their telephone number for all direct transactions and pic copies of hand-written checks. Any inquiry will be answered WITHOUT any bullshit or charges. IF you don't have those features, I would seriously consider changing banks.  |  IP: Logged Richard Greco Phenomenal Film Handler Posts: 1180 From: Plant City, FL Registered: Nov 2003 posted 07-02-2006 01:05 AM                     I've got BOA, They refunded my card no questions asked. I called them up and they told me it would cost more than it was worth to investigate, so they paid it up front..  |  IP: Logged Richard Hamilton Phenomenal Film Handler Posts: 1341 From: Evansville, Indiana Registered: Jan 2000 posted 07-02-2006 01:45 AM                     I recently wrote a 1000 dollar check to Circuit City. I forgot to transfer money to the account I wrote the check on. When I realized my mistake, they had tried to send the check through twice. I transferred enough money to cover my check.(this is a personal account I don't use much) Circuit City turned this over to a collection agency, even though they cashed my check! The collection agency somehow wrote a check on my account and collected their fee from my account. It was only 20 dollars, but it overdrew my account. Now my bank charges me 6 dollars a day because I am overdrawn on that account! I can see a photocopy of the check that the collection agency wrote, I did not authorize this check, just some shit that I will deal with when I return to the states next month. The copy shows the front and back of the check! It is signed "pre authorized debit" where I would sign my name.  |  IP: Logged Louis Bornwasser Film God Posts: 4441 From: prospect ky usa Registered: Mar 2005 posted 07-02-2006 09:44 AM                        I'm staying with paper for a proper paper-trail!!!!

My Credit Union offers so may services, many free, as to blow any bank out of the water! When there is a charge it is much less than a banks charges. I travel alot like you do and I don't have auto deposit and sometimes I get back in town and have two or three checks waiting to deposit... so I set up an overdraft account with them so I can still write checks and use my debit card while I am on the road without needing to worry about overdraft and the daily associated charges.
