Just got a call from this number, wanted me to give my address before they would tell me who they were. I called them back it's some place in Napoleon, OH called Bartoe & Associates LLC. The company is a bill collection agency who collects past due medical bills. Still don't know why they called me since I don't have any due, oh well. Thought I'd share who the number was though.
Just got a call. The caller Courtney would not tell me what kind of company they worked she worked for.When I asked for her name and again she told me Courtney and I asked Courtney who and she hung up. I called back 3 times (which was legal to try and find out who they are). I spoke to a Sue and someone else who would not give their name who hung up on me and Amy (claiming to be a sup but does not seem to know that they have to disclose who they are) Which is when I hung up and called the local police department. If you get a call you don't have to tell them anything. Did some research and after that and talking to my local police department the caller is required to give information of who they are and what they do and a name does not say what they do. Since I still do not know who they are I will be keeping tabs on them (incoming calls) and will take them to court if they keep calling me.
Just got a call and they didn't leave a message so I called back. Nobody answered. I found this page with info so I thought I would chime in and hopefully they get shut down. Tired of my phone ringing and nobody answering.
I got a call from a similar number 4195991448 they were looking for my sister and I told them they had the wrong number and hung up. Well I was curious so I called back and it was Bartoe and associates and I told them they had called looking for my sister and they said that nobody called me so ya it's pretty freaking weird
This is actually a good group or at least my experience was good. Ive read the above statements and I now understand they are limited to what they can say per law until they know they have the right person....I had the same issue about identifying me, but once she explained why (HIPAA) and the need to protect my identity I felt better. I wasnt aware that I had a bill from my stay at the hospital since I payed copay. The lady was very patient in explaining how I had a balance after Anthem paid their portion. I was able to make payment at what I could afford, but it could not stop the calls for some reason ( yuck). They were very helpful and educated me on how to prevent this. I asked how they got my number and it came over with the hospital information. Stopped this bill from affecting my credit which is good........ if they call, work with them.......she was non judgemental to me and wanted me to understand what the hospital and Anthem failed to tell me. Good folks at Bartoe.
