On our work line I was getting multiple calls from this # and also 773-570-5440. The recording would say it was an important call for "persons name". I would just hang up. It became a joke when the caller id would show these numbers and I would say oh, it is for Dequin (the name they always asked for). Finally I just listened to the end. Pressed 9 like it said. Told the lady the situation, it was a work number and that person has never worked here and she removed it from their list. It isn't their fault when people give out numbers that are not ligit, or maybe it was at one point in time. It was a third line we just added a couple years ago, so before that it might have been Dequin's! I'm just glad to not get them anymore. They were pleasant and helpful.
Does anyone know the NAME of the people calling??? Is it "Burdick & Dynia" or "Budzik and Dyna" AKA "Burdick & Dynia Collection Attorney", "Dynia & Associates" or "Dynia Collection Agency." They have been calling my PRE-PAID cell phone relentless since October. I often cannot get there in time to answer it and do not have voicemail set up so as not to have to pay for spam calls like this.
I have NO CREDIT associated with this number and NEVER HAVE. They were also calling my land home business until I answered and told them the person they were looking for was not at this number - EVER. Still, I have used those two lines to communicate with TWO RIP-OFF ROOFING COMPANIES that we made the mistake of asking for estimates after meeting them at The BigE Eastern States Fair and even though we ended up NOT doing business with either (phew; both are SUCKER COMPANIES) now we have to deal with these calls.
Other numbers they have HARASSED US with are 312-470-6683 (4x on my cell.), 773-570-5440 and
630-995-9761 both also on my cell.
Called AGAIN tonight while I was OUT SHOPPING in a store. I was NOT about to answer and 'deal' with whatever questions these people might ask.
Isn't ILLEGAL for Collection Agencies to call CELL PHONES if the person they are looking for has a LANDLINE LISTED in their name? I have a landline, BUT I have *NO CREDIT* or 'outstanding bills' tied to this number NOR do I have any Outstanding Bills, PERIOD. WHY do I have to keep putting up with this CRAP and having MY MINUTES USED UP answering and explaining I'm NOT whom they are looking for?????
This happens about once every 1 year to 18 months; WHOMEVER they are looking for THEY'RE NOT AT THIS NUMBER!!!
Just called my work, trying to act as tho they know me, but hung up half way thru giving the name of the company. I owe no one, but used to have an on line Internet Loan, typically, that is how these companies get info. Unfortunately, they've prolly rooked so many people who don't know their rights, they call and try to get money out of ANYONE. Morons.
