Do you really think ANY credit card company is going to call you and OFFER to reduce the interest rate? This is Portfolio Recovery attempting to record anything you might say that will acknowledge a past statute of limitations credit card debt so activates a new collection period in your state, most likely 6 years. They will use any underhanded and illegal method to accomplish their goal.
Wow! do you really think this is the vermin at Portfolio Recovery, phishing? They are so pathetic.
This morning I received a *second* 1099-C from these scum. We already had one to send in with our tax return for 2010. I already complained to the IRS and to the FTc and to the Post Office, and to my state attorney general.
Doesn't anybody stop these thieving bottom feeders? I called my state rep, Charlie Dent, the first time I got a 1099-C from PRA. They said they would get back to me, but they never did. Since then, I have written to Congressman Dent, at least once, maybe twice, and again, no reply. No wonder these PRA vermin are so brazen. Thank you, to the Best Congress Money Can Buy!!!

"That's assault. Do NOT do that!"
You know what, that calling me when I'm a do not call list & I have no business with them, that's harassing & stupidly they call over and over.
Thus one good turn deserves another - a whistle it is.
Just received a call from this number - caller ID said Bozeman MT - I spoke with a rep (w/a foriegn accent) and asked what was the full name of his company. he said Visa & MasterCard Services. Again I asked for the full name and was told that was the full name. Then I asked where they were located. He said Orlando FL. I asked if the company was located in FL why did my caller ID say MT. He told me i was mistaken. I continued to grill him (only because i wanted to waste his time and aggrevate him) the i told him he and his company was a scam. But what really concerned me was that he called me by my last name. So I'm going to block his number and i would suggest that if any of you have that ability to do the same thing.
