On July 26, 2012, I got a call from this number. It registered on my caller ID as "Financial Ctr." I did not answer the phone. On today's date, August 15, 2012, I received another call from "Financial Ctr." except this time the number was 503-457-1407. I answered this call. The recording said that this is my final courtesy call to lower my credit card rate to 6%; all I need is $3,000 in credit card debt and one card in good standing. It also said they have tried to contact me several times and that this is my final call for my yearly credit card review.
The automated recording did not give a key to press to be removed from their list; It said "Press 1 if you are interested in lowering your credit card debt..." So I pressed 1 and got a woman who said "So i understand you are interested in lowering your credit card payments?" I said, "No, but I understand I want to be removed from your call list." Before I could finish my sentence, she hung up on me!
If you get a call from "Financial Ctr" on your caller ID, DO NOT ANSWER!
I have done this several times already and every time they hang up on me. How am I to get off this list!???
Didn't answer this time.....last time I answered by accident, #360-474-3925, I pressed #9 per their instructions to be removed from the list. That was on June 13th. It's August 6th and here they are with a new number. So far I've blocked 360-474 3925, 360-474-3983, 360-474-3909, 360-529-6912, 360-474-3986,....I'm sure they have more,...This one was from Arlington WA according to the caller ID.
I get calls from this number too...but nothing on the other end..just total silence. Now what I do when I do get calls I wait to speak to a rep...and when they get on I instantly tell them.."oh...can you please hold on just 1 second...I'm at work"...to which they say "sure..ok".....then I just set the phone down and go about my business.....they eventually get the idea im not coming back...I can hear them hang up. I have been told the calsl they do make cost a lot of money per minute...so the longer u keep them holding on its costing them money. Do not know if this is an actual fact but I like to think it is.
