A few days ago I noticed a new default collection agency being available: New Prosper Collection Agency…

I had already changed my default agency, but just realized that only affected my manual bids (I make very very manual bids), so I also changed all of my Standing Orders to use AmSher.

So if you want to switch to AmSher make sure you set both your default collections agency and any standing orders to use AmSher.

In addition, late yesterday I got the following email:

Dear Kevin,

We are pleased to announce that Prosper Marketplace has added a new collection agency – AmSher. AmSher is a privately held receivables management firm based in Birmingham, Alabama. Starting out in the retail trade in 1939, it migrated to collections. It is a nationally recognized collection and receivables company licensed to conduct business in all fifty states.

AmSher is now available as a selection for new bids as of January 25th, 2008. If you would like to change your default collection agency, click here.

Learn more about collections at Prosper.

Sincerely,
Prosper
