Based on recent customer reviews, Lynn & Main Attorneys is described almost entirely in negative terms by the consumers it contacts for debt collection. Recurring complaints centre on relentless calling, including calls at work and to wrong parties, consultants who shout or belittle, and refusal to accept walk-in appointments. Reviewers report long waits for paid-up, settlement and prescription letters, disputed or unproven claims, and credit bureau listings that remain uncorrected for months. Several have escalated to the NCR, Credit Ombud or their own attorneys. Only the firm's established local standing draws any praise.

Disrespectful rude consultant. Very Unprofessional
Very Disrespectful and Unprofessional Consultant. Received a call at 8.30. The consultant was very rude, intimidating and threatening. No patience whatsoever and while still trying to speak to her she screams and hangs up. I called immediately and you would think they would deal with this urgently but obviously not. Had it been important they would have contacted me by now. Who knows if that consultant has even been spoken to. She's most probably doing it to everyone she speaks to. Just disgusting unprofessional behavior.

Irritated
Im getting millions of calls per day. I receive calls whilst on a call with one of the agents repeating myself. Can the agents not read the notes. You calling me regarding and *** that has prescribed. Legally you cannot harass me like this and question me like a police officer.

Lynn & Main Attorneys — Your Continued Failure to Respond Is Unacceptable
Lynn & Main Attorneys — Your Continued Failure to Respond Is Unacceptable I am extremely dissatisfied with the manner in which Lynn & Main Attorneys have handled my request regarding the prescription of my Standard Bank Revolving Credit Plan (RCP). I have contacted you repeatedly requesting a clear written outcome and the relevant prescription letter. Your continued failure to respond to my emails or meaningfully engage with my complaints is completely unacceptable. This is not a complicated request. I am asking for a definitive answer on the prescription status of an account that was handed to you by Standard Bank. What makes your refusal to deal with this matter even more concerning is that Standard Bank has already recognised and prescribed another account where the last payment was made on the exact same day as the RCP account you are refusing to prescribe. That raises a very simple question: what is the basis for treating these two accounts differently? If you believe the RCP has not prescribed, then I expect you to explain, in writing, the specific basis for that position. If you believe it has prescribed, then issue the prescription letter without further delay. What is particularly disappointing is that, unlike a bank such as Standard Bank, a law firm does not face the same direct customer-service and institutional pressures that a bank does. That does not mean that you can simply ignore a customer’s legitimate request and refuse to communicate. You are acting on behalf of Standard Bank, and your failure to respond reflects directly on both your firm and the bank that appointed you. I have no interest in being sent back to Standard Bank when you are the attorneys currently handling the account. I have already approached you and given you the opportunity to address this matter, yet you have chosen not to respond. Silence is not an answer. I therefore require Lynn & Main to provide a clear written position on the prescription of the RCP and the prescription letter where applicable, rather than continuing to ignore my correspondence. If your position is that the account has not prescribed, say so and provide the basis for that position. If it has prescribed, provide the letter. I expect an actual response this time — not silence, not a generic acknowledgement, and not another attempt to pass me back to Standard Bank.

FORMAL COMPLAINT AND DISPUTE REGARDING INACCURATE INFORMATION CREDIT INFORMATION
I am writing to formally dispute the information that has been reported to the credit bureaus in respect of my account with L&M Attorneys. My credit report currently reflects an amount of R333,654 as my monthly instalment. This information is incorrect. My agreed monthly repayment is R1,200.00 per month. I have attached a copy of the DebiCheck SMS received from L&M Attorneys confirming that a R1,200.00 debit was submitted to my Absa account. The credit report appears to be treating the outstanding debt/balance of R333,654 as my monthly instalment. These are not the same thing. My actual monthly repayment is R1,200. This incorrect reporting is seriously affecting my credit profile and, in particular, my affordability assessment, because it makes it appear that I am required to pay R333,654 every month when this is not the repayment arrangement agreed with L&M Attorneys.

UNPROFESSIONAL
This is the worse law/collections company ever to deal with. They are quick to call for money, put you under pressure for payment but when you request paid up letters you get the run around. I called today and last week and send 2emails requesting paidup letter and i was advised today they waiting for the accounts department and then the file handler tells me to listen here you are not the only one waiting for paid letters, if you cal this telephone etiquette then i dont know. I pray to God to never cross paths with these UNPROFESSIONAL, UNTIDY people again

Unprofessional service
My SARS funds were paid into a closed Absa account, and the matter was subsequently handed over to this company. The level of service and confusion when dealing with this company is unbearable. Every time I call, I am sent from pillar to post, given questionable or conflicting answers, and nobody seems to take ownership of the matter. Different people appear to be doing their own thing, with no clear communication or accountability. I understand that the company receives these cases from banks to assist clients with resolving such issues. However, the experience I have had has been extremely frustrating and has made an already difficult situation even worse. The system and communication clearly need serious improvement. Based on my experience, I would not recommend this company to anyone.
