Who called from 3012230080

301-223-0800 has become my enemy. They call my son's prepaid cellphone and have been told numerous

times over the last 3 months that the person they are calling - Valero Campo - does not live here nor do we

know who that is! We have asked nicely and not so nicely that they stop calling and we have been assured

they have removed the cellphone number but they called again today. I spoke to Debbie@Xcel's customer

service# 1-800-895-4999 and she contacted the 301-223-0080 number and was assured by "Kim" that they

ARE Xcel and that they have removed our cellphone number. It was claimed that the call is a courtesy call to

remind deadbeats to pay their overdue bill. Our family doesn't have any overdue debts and they need to STOP

CALLING! If they call again after I have assured it would stop (like I was told today and last week), I will

make further posts here and elsewhere. Xcel's customer service rep (Debbie) wasn't too confident that this

call center was part of Xcel but has assured me if they call us again we can contact her and she will see what

can be done to stop the calling.

I ignored a call I received from (301)223-0080 at 12:30 today. They left a message on my machine.  To my surprise, it was Xcel Energy, my utility company! I am delinquent with this month's payment.  They are calling to make a collection attempt. The call back number they left for me, to return their call differs from the number showing on my Caller ID. I'm sure it's only because they're offering me a toll-free call back number.
I was asked to return the call to (888)220-8409.

It is Xcel Energy asking me to pay my past due that I just paid off yesterday!  Sounds fishy to me.

I got a call from some guy on this number saying he was with xcel. He was saying I needed to pay my bill, I told him I needed to check some stuff out before I pay and he said he would call back in an hour. I called xcel and the numbers that they gave me did not add up in the slightest. I also mentioned something about having sent in a payment earlier and he had ignored it, seems really fishy. Do not give you account number or credit card number to this guy it is a SCAM.

Also he said I could pay with visa when Xcel no longer accepts visa payments.

SCAM!

SCAM SCAM SCAM......i have never been late on my xcel bill. in fact we are usually about 2 months ahead.  this number called me, said i was late i said whatever and hung up. called xcel immediately and am still almost 120.00 dollars ahead on my bill.  so what the hell they even said it was a scam.  do not answer these calls or if you do record it and go to xcel with it
