Got a call from CVB they tried telling me i owed 800 dollars for a virgin mobile phone I never got. They did not have my address and have called numerous times . She proceeded to give me the number1-800-900-2331 and told me it was virgin mobiles number but when you call it it says it is restricted. found out this number is a scam that calls people about debt to winning a prize. They have also gave me three addresses on different times i have talked to them where i am supposed to live. I never received any thing in the mail about this and the3y do not have my address. I believe this is a scam I once called the police to report the call and was told it was a scam and they where committing fraud.
These people keep calling my house for someone that doesn't live here... I tried to be polite when they insisted they have spoken with this person via my phone number... I've had this number for 2 years & have never spoken to them personally. I asked to speak to a manager & they hung up. I called the number back & they sent me to someone's voicemail where I proceeded to inform them that every time they call my house & ask for this person I have no problem hanging up & calling them back & wasting their time... I also made a point of telling them this was harassment & I will be looking into how I take action against them... Thank you for providing that number I will definitely be calling!
Unfortunately, they aren't a "so called" collections agency. I work collections, and if we have reason to believe the debtor does live there, we CAN call again, however the number should be removed after that.
Also, I highly doubt they called anyones family deadbeats, etc. Collection calls are recorded and monitored, not only by the office itself, but outside monitors and the client they represent.
If you're getting THAT pissed off over a wrong number, ask for the collectors name and license number. Then file a complaint with their head office. Or change your phone number.
"....Or change your phone number."
That may backfire.
There is a finite number of phone numbers available in any area. In some areas the number of phones in use is dangerously close to the number of numbers available. So your "new" phone number probably belonged to someone else not long ago. They may have changed phone numbers to get rid of their wrong-number pest.
Folks, hi.
This is a Debt collector name is CBV Collection Service Ltd located in Toronto.
I suggest sending them Faxes from Word to their voice line, and set up Microsoft
Fax Console to do it every few minutes!
