Keep getting calls from this number,thinking its a scam to collect on a charge off. Debt. But never can get a straight answer when contact is rarely made.
This number is a call from Convergent Outsourcing. They are a debt collection agency. I get calls several times a week from them trying to contact my son, who's behind on a numerous payments. He doesn't live here, so I never answer. Sometimes there is an automated message left that states: "Please return my call at 877-227-0063." Other times, not.
First off debt collection by a third party is ILLEGAL, only the company you originally had the contract for service is able to collect the debt owed. A third party has no LEGAL right to interject in the contract and collect anything unless BOTH parties agree to them collecting , meaning if you don't agree they can't collect . if they bought your debt its their debt now not yours. They have no right to collect money not contracted by you to them no more than you have the right to collect money some guy on the street owes to someone else. Tell them you do not consent to third party collection and that you have no contract with them and therefore no obligation to pay.
