Just recieved a call from this number and a woman asked for me by name. I told her it was me and she then asks me to verify my address. She tells me my address and asks me if that is correct. Before I answer, I asked her what this was in regards to and she says she can't tell me until I verify my address. I told her I wasn't going to verify it until I know what this in regards to. She then asks me "So, you will not verify this information?" I told her "You have that correct!" Then she says "Good luck to you." and hung up.
This number belongs to West Asset management. They are a collections company. They have been trying to collect from me on a questionable bill. I have requested an itemized bill to verify the relevance of the charges, but none has been forthcoming. I just asked them to pursue any further communications via US Mail. According to an attorney that I consulted, if they call again, it's a harrassment suit. just FYI.
Its a collection agency. I used to get calls from Allied Interstate collections. after i made a payment agreement to pay off an old sprint bill and sent in $50 payment (1 of 3) the account was sent to West Asset management collections. where they told me they would not honor the previous agreement even though the payment was made prior to them getting my account. they even added more fees to the account which i told them i would not pay. i continue to pay allied interstate and they accept and credit my payment to the account. West Asset management is very rude, continues to call and verify address and even account numbers to my checking. which I changed once I knew they had it. I ask the person calling what it is in regards to and they say they cant tell me until address and other info is verified. I told them good luck and that i would continue dealing with the account with the other company. RUDE RUDE RUDE!
west asset management can't keep employees either. i can just imagine what they have to go thru to learn how to be so crude. I have been threatened with everything under the sun, so much so that i have decided not to pay them. i can handle one small blemish on my credit.
