If you do have a bad debt..... make sure you request a verification of the debt in writing. if they can't come up with that, you are off the hook completely
This is tricky --- but you should know that the law is on your side. You can't trust collection agencies or their attorneys to steer you in the right direction...

Same thing as most everyone else on this log. I keep getting calls from 312 265 9029 from Harris and Harris. You can't return calls to that number, it will disconnect you after a greeting. I was able to get through to a person on 866 645 4479 and they told me they removed the number from their system. We will see if that works. This has been going on for months, so I'm hoping this last call to them will work.
I am so sick of this BS number calling my house all hours and waking my newborn daughter up.....and for what????????? NO REASON AT ALL........it's always some stupid lady saying for me to give her a call and saying she is from the cook county courts..........yeah right like im stupid or something..........if it was from the court house it wouldn't say this on my caller ID...........maybe some people don't care and are lonely and need someone to talk to, but not me.......now i have to pay for call intercept on my phone to keep idiotic people like them and other annoying telemarketers to leave me alone......right now i have 19 blocked numbers on my phone and why????? because they have no lives and can't get a real job.......all i have to say is leave people alone and if it is a bill collector leave people alone, they will pay when the heck they feel like it.
I kept get a recorded message saying they were looking for a david something-or-other, they had an option to press if that person wasn't at that number, which I pressed and it directed me to call 312-423-7484. I called that number and got immediately into a voicemail with no information in the greeting. I told them they had the wrong number and not to call again. They just called again, so I googled it, came to this page and called 866-645-4479 (from above) got some guy who claimed their "computers were down" but that he would delete me from the list. We will see.
Got a call from 312-265-9029 yesterday. It is a Debt Collection Agency posing as a Harris & Harris Law Firm. They also call from a different number: 312-423-7173.
