I am on do not call list for all the good it does. I do not answer and they do not leave a message. Would like their home number so I could call them all hours of the day and night.

Called about debt after bankruptcy

I don't answer any calls. they can leave a message and if it is someone I know I can call back. The day isn't over yet and I already have had 11scammer calls. Something should be done about this crap. We pay for our phone service. They should pay us or take it off our bill for every scammercall. I don't owe any past due debt.

These are Indian scammers. They have used this and a few other numbers to call me from. They try to sound very intimidating and pretend to be debt collectors. They ask for certain names and will sometimes just ask for 'Joe' or 'John' or general names. They are completely fake and will try to get you to pay debts that they allegedly are collecting for third parties. If you do answer the only thing to do is waste their time. Never give them any real information about yourself/your family. Because they're in India and outside US jurisdiction the DNC list does not really help.

They called and would not tell me who they were, but they were asking for me by my maiden name, which I was changed well over 10 years ago. They kept trying to verify any personal information that I would give, so I wouldn't give it. They would not tell me who they were with or what it was about, all they would say is that it was a personal business matter.

Keeps blowing up my phone since 8am if they don't leave a message on voicemail and if I feel like it I may call back but I'm pretty sure it's a scam so in less proven otherwise I'm just going to block the number

This same company keeps changing their number, they have called 3 times today!

The Fair Debt Collection Practices Act provides that you must tell a debt collector not to call you at work. There are financial penalties - including recovery of attorney fees and costs (meaning you can probably hire an attorney to handle this for you without charge to you).Here's the rub - if you told them over the phone, you have no written proof. So, next time they call I suggest you engage them in a brief conversation. State, 'Look, you called me, not the other way around. You want information from me, your going to have to identify yourself and answer my questions first.Then ask for the following questions:1. 'What is your name?'2. 'What company employs you?'3. 'What matter are you contacting me about?' (demand specifics: creditor, account type and demanded balance)4. 'What is your mailing address?'If they hang up - which they usually do - call them back and demand to speak to a manger, then demand the same information (above) from them. DO NOT GIVE OUT ANY PERSONAL INFORMATION OTHER THAN THE NUMBER THE DEBT COLLECTOR CALLED. At this stage, if they say they can't help you without you giving them your personal information, demand to know the person's name, company and mailing address.In any event, use the information given to send a certified, return receipt letter to the debt collector stating that they are to cease and desist from calling your corporate cell phone.Then, be sure to download your call log every month. You have to give them time to delete the number from their call list, but once done DO NOT LOSE THE LETTER! If they ever call again, don't answer - just let it ring. Not sure it's them? Search the number and print out pages like this. Then, take the call logs and printouts to an experienced federal-practice lawyer. There are minimum statutory fines (payable to you) for each and every violation on or after they receive your 'cease and desist' letter, plus the law allows the attorney to collect his fees and costs (generally 33% of whatever fines you would receive), so there's no cost to you for representation.Good luck!

They must stop calling your work if you ask the. Not to call you there. They will often tell you they need a better number to call you at and unless you give one they keep calling your work. They cannot do that.They must also stop calling you period if you request. They will state it must be done in writing, again, false. They can deny you ever requested but do so at a risk.. they're usually recording the calls... And if they are, yoi can as well. It would be a huge gamble of liability on their part to keep calling as if you've made the request and can simply prove it, it's an automatic $1,000 provision in the FDCPA.

That's a violation of the US Bankruptcy code and you may be entitled to statutory fees, plus attorney fees and cost. Print out your call log, run the unanswered numbers here and through Google Search, print out identifying messages, and then contact either a skilled federal-practice consumer affairs attorney of your bankruptcy attorney.Good luck!

constantly call my cell phone which is company issued number. Now they have started calling where I work. Definitely Midland Credit Management. I thought they weren't supposed to call places of business.

Don't answer

So they call your place of work if the place they bought an old debt form had your business # on file. It's 'allowed' in most states as long as they don't say what the issue is on a voicemail, and they don't call it several times a day. The messages I got they just state who they are and to all about a time sensitive matter, so that if someone at my business were to hear it they would not know what its in regards to. It's dirty but it is legal. They call ever other day after calling my cell. The # they call my cell form is different from my work so that's another scam. Constantly switching #'s is so wrong.

Quote:I am on do not call list for all the good it doesWell, I am sure it is doing as it is supposed to. If you thought it was a call blocker, then of course you might think like that, not knowing what it really is for. Of course, going to the DNC website and reading what it is for, will change that perspective for you.

Disturbed

Midland Credit bottom feeder collectors.Blocked and DONE.Never answer ANY calls from numbers you don't know, people!

Called claiming I had an unpaid debt on capital one card. They gave me the correct name and date of birth, but the card and social security number they gave was wrong, and I owe no money.

I received a call saying they are debt collector. I called them back and asked who are trying to call. I was given a name for some unknown person. Apparently, they got my name as a possible relative of hers. This is the problem, they have called me on 5 other occasions for this persons. They say that they will put me on the DO NOT CALL list of theirs. Their list may work for a few months then they will call back asking for same person.

Midland credit telling me i have past due with j c penney. Also sent me letter. Cc# on letter not # on my card. Said debt was from 15 years ago.

The Fair Debt Collection Act does not outlaw calling you at work, but it does provide a mechanism for stopping the debt collector from calling you at work. And, there may be statutory penalties levied against the debt collector (and payable to you) for violation a notice from you not to call you while at work or on your work number. Last, the Act may provide the debt collector pay your attorney fees and costs.See my other posts here for details.Good luck

They called and left no voicemail. I called back and found they are a debt collector. For Midland Credit Management.

Quote:Then, be sure to download your call log every month. You have to give them time to delete the number from their call list, but once done DO NOT LOSE THE LETTER! Which should be done immediately upon receipt of the letter. While it is important to save the letter it is just as important to make sure that you do not lose the little green card that they signed when the letter was delivered.Quote:If they ever call again, don't answer - just let it ring. Not sure it's them? Search the number and print out pages like this. Which will prove nothing in a court of law since numbers can easily be spoofed.Quote:There are minimum statutory fines (payable to you) for each and every violation on or after they receive your 'cease and desist' letter, No, the FDCPA provides one statutory award (not fine) of $1,000 or actual damages no matter how many violations there are. Most attorneys get 40% now plus costs. That would be paid by the loser in an FDCPA case.I would suggest that you take the time to actually read the law before trying to give advice based on it.
