that number is a collection agency called CBD. i have a past due MCI account that went to that company. HOWEVER, my bill is from about 4 years ago, and somehow they got my parents home number, which is unlisted, and called them and released private info. i havent lived at my parents house in like 6 years, so this company seems to not want to follow privacy laws in order to collect debts. I am thinking I am going to file a complaint with the BBB because there is no way they could have known my parents info. Do research before paying money to these collection agencies. It wouldnt surprise me if these are scams. I talked to a lady when i called the number back and it just seemed like something was not right!
Cole - this number is from CBE - some debt collection agency in the Maryland area. They have been harrassing me by calling my cell phone on average twice a day since Wednesday 11/18/09. I posted my comments also under this number: 757-990-8911. I thought I was a victim of identity theft but I also checked my credit report and I am fine. Some idiot that has credit problems probably gave them a random number... and it happened to be ours! :( My cell & house numbers have been registered at the DO NOT CAll list since 2005. Anyways.. my cell phone has a reject call feature... so I added these 2 numbers.. but you will still be charged the airtime of 1 minute. If you call your cell company, they will charge a blocking fee of 4.99/month - which is ridiculous. I've seen other websites saying you can block certain calls but I haven't explored that arena since I don't have one of those 'high-tech' phones (blackberry, iphone etc.,..). Good luck.
Also receiving phone calls from 757-990-8911...this one is out of Virginia. Very annoying. When I attempted to phone the number to see who was trying to contact me, I received the message " please hold for CBE"...I am not about to hold for anyone on my cell phone. I will be contacting the phone company to see what can be done to stop this connection to my cell number. I am beginning to think this is some kind of hoax or scam. I do not have any debt.
