I received a call from this number at work and home asking me if I wanted to lower my interest rates on any of my credit cards that were above 10%. They also stated the card that had an interest rate above 10% must be 10% below of the balance (they did not want a credit card that was at the maximum with no available balance). Then they asked for the credit card number. And, I told them I would not give them my credit card number they then stated they was going to take me off there call list. It was a scam because you should not give anyone your credit card number.
I pressed 9 and asked what company - she said "visa/mastercard" I asked what city she was calling from "Florida" - I asked how she got my information - she said they represent banks like Citi, Bank of America, etc - she asked for my cards 800 number, I didn't have it on me at the time of the call, I asked to have her number to call back (so I could do some research on this) and she said she would call me back this afternoon - I don't plan on answering. I am no do not call list as well - looks like they have found a way around this. I am angry with myself for even thinking this was legit!! I am not generally a gullible person, but the idea of saving $ on interest rates in these tough economic times is appealling to even the most reasonable of us!
I got the same calling saying they were card member services and asked if i'd like my rate reduced. Of course I pressed 9 and she asked if had $4000 or more in credit card debt. I asked do you mean for all cards or just one. She said for all. I said I don't think so but it is probably close and she hung up on me. I wonder what the amount of my debt has to do with anything. Obviously it's a scam but since when did scammers get picky?
Missed this call just now... thank goodness! Looked it up and found this mess of remarks. Tried to return the call and it won't go through... Strange... I'm on the do not call list too.
It was a recorded message from "Cardholder Services" about a limited time offer to reduce the rate on my credit card. Pressed nine to speak to a representative. As I was asking this person to remove my phone number from the call list, I was disconnected. I am on the no-call list. Why am I still getting this kind of annoying invasion of privacy?
Several calls lately from 407-000-8888, finally pressed 9 to ask to taken from call list. As soon as I said I did not have credit cards and wanted to be removed from call list she hung up. Rude Rude Rude
