I paid a bill over 2 years ago to Florida first and spoke to a rep they have today named Paul Blake, he was very rude. I paid it to Florida first but he claims the business is in the process of changing names to Lee Alan Reed and associates so he cant help me. I read the replys on the complaints filed on rip off report for 4/17 about how the company is a scam. I plan on going to the better business bureau against this company.

THE REAL TRUTH ON LEE ALAN REED & ASSOCIATES - REED & SUSAN LIENHART

AUTHOR: Keithwhite - (U.S.A.)

POSTED: Monday, December 15, 2008

Florida First Financial

Lee Alan Reed & Associates

Lighthouse capital solution

owned by Susan Lienhart and Reed Lienhart


My name is K. White - alias bill w, chris wall, john good. I worked for Florida First Financial for about 15 years. I left on good terms and the deal was that we would part ways in peace. Without you really knowing Reed you wouldnt understand this but he has to be loud and voicetrous, its so bad he is known for giving a B.S. story about playing for the bucks, Yes Reed if you reading this I know your full of crap, your dad told me you fell on the field during try outs and had to be carried off the field. Reed just couldnt leave things alone when I quit, so he started telling people he fired me for drugs. First of all he didnt fire me, I quit because Im 65 years old and quit the day I got my SSI check. My email is Keith white 8199 at yahoo dot com

Im here to say that most of these posts are correct. I have gone to the state and working with them anyway I can. Reed collects payments on average about 35% if its within 6months old and then gos to 45%. Reed would often hold payments not showing clients an account was paid until it passed to 45%. However reed is keeping probably closer to 90% of all payments. Clients were always calling wanting to know where their money was. Reed would tell me to get on the phone and lie. He would have me tell clients that it was never paid to us and make debtors find proof, most of the time they didnt have proof and Reed would get paid twice. He would have me tell clients that FFFG paid them 4 months ago and make up a dummy SOC #, and have me tell them the check was cashed. It was all lies 1/2 the time clients would never check with the banks or research it, so it was just more money Reed would get to keep. Reed would change the Date of Service dates on accounts so they would stay on the credit bureaus longer. Here is the question, I wonder how much money Reed and Susan Lienhart have on hold that has never been reported to their clients. I have been hearing that Reed is laundering money from Florida First Financial into a dummy FFFG account. I was told Reed now has two Florida first bank accounts, so that when the courts ask for his financial records he can give them the one with dummy books. He is depositing into the FFFG account about 1000 a week originaly then keeps bringing is down in small steps in hopes to prove he is pennyless. He purposly hasent paid proptery tax as another angle to prove he is going to file banko. He is also laundering money into the Lighthouse Capital solutions with 10K checks and also now depositing most of the money into Lee Alan Reed. Yes FRED is still his counsel and works for reed despite what Reed trys to claim, Fred is there all the time. Both Reed and I were both in the office every single time a process server came to serve him. Reed just instructs the girls to say he is not in or that they work for a temp service and cant except it. He cant pay clients because he spends to much with a house in Mt dora and a house on franklin, a mercedes, two kids in private school, a new ford pickup, hummer, 20 mopeds, boats. He is living high on hog while screwing over all his clients. But yet he forced myself and other collectors to work as an Indenpant contractor so he wouldn't have to pay our tax. He even made one contractor pay his side of taxes that wanted to become an employee. He refuses to pay time and half to the clerical staff, he will threaten to file his clerical staff if they complain. Still think Reed is a nice man? Terry Smith was a collector who worked for Reed 25 years. Terry was dying from cancer and given 1 month to live, Reed stole more than 4000$ of payments the man had coming to him 2 weeks before he died, then didnt understand why he was Banded from the funeral. Stealing from clients wasnt enough all collectors constantly found payments Reed would backdate so he wouldn't have to pay collectors commission, his office was so tired of the abuse thats why 1/2 his office quit! All I needed was a simple 'Sorry' and would not have posted anything here, but you just cant learn.

You didnt take care of the people who got you where you did Reed. You gave us no mercy working for you. Hope the courts give you the same. See you in court buckaroo.

Keith W - I will testify in court. Any attorney interested in more information e-mail me at keithwhite8199 at yahoo dot com
