UCC data is garbage. The merchants on those lists are pounded day in and day out by call centers, robodialers, and salespeople trying to get call time so they don't get fired and lose their base salary.

If you are looking to squeeze a 3rd position on a retail shop for $10K with a COJ and a 6% bank fee, go right ahead and call the **** out of them. Otherwise, save your money kids.

I agree with you there, that is why getting to that merchant first matters the most. Old UCCs are getting pounded left and right, but the most recently filed ones are not, because the data companies do not update daily and are always 30 days late.

Also, when ordering a UCC list, you will need to make sure that you capture all the new alias names used by a funder. Clearly, the most common alias names are hit the hardest. I have actually done my own study and research and discovered 1200 alias names used for just 97 funding companies.

It might help knowing funders most recent alias names when purchasing a list.
