These jerks are trying to collect a debt that is in dispute with TRANS UNION.. I actually spoke with a woman at Portfolio Recovery and told her that Trans Union is investigating and she say well just pay it now and if its in error we will refund your money.. YEAH RIGHT! SCAMMERS..
Never speak with these idiots....just a waste of time talking with their hi turnover help. What a worthless job to have!!!!
We get calls from these nut cases all the time. We owe nothing, and have good credit.
That just shows that they have no actual paperwork or they would not be calling us. They likely buy hundreds of write-off old debts and hope that some will pay off.
No person is going to talk with these nitwits and give them any information.
Do what we did and get a call blocking device...works great and shuts these clowns down on the first ring.
There are several good ones on the market. Do a search on the web and check them out. Well worth having to block stupid fools like portfolio as well as other telemarketing types etc...etc...
You can file with the FTC but not sure how long it takes for the Feds to follow up on a complaint. You would think that some folks might have a friend in the legal areas or lawyer that would like to take on these jerks and give them something to deal with.
LOL!! Like the idea of boat horn! On bad days, I will scream in there ear. My ex used to have a real good trick - since they called all the time, it was pretty predictable when they would call, so he kept his 45 handy and when they called, he took the phone outside and answered it and when the person was on the line - he would shoot the 45 off right next to the speaker on the phone! LOL That got them off the line real fast!! lol lol Wonder if they could hear very well after that?!
Anyone know how to get these idiots to stop calling? I owe them nothing but can't get them to stop calling 3-4 times a day (and usually from different phone numbers). Besides changing my number, how do I get the calls to stop?? Any suggestions are very appreciated!
I get calls from these idiots all the time. My credit is outstanding and I don't have any bad debt. But I really don't care, they can call forever. My phone is set up so that if you are not in my address book, my phone doesn't ring. They don't leave messages, they are wasting thier time!
