Well ladies and Gents I also worked at HP Locate which was most definitely a legitimate business!! First of all the business started only 2 years ago so they are actually still workin out a few kinks. BUT as far as the work that was done, Just because u feel like its harassment Does Not mean it is!! There are rules and protocols that are followed! If they said you couldnt call friends, relatives, neighbors, etc.... then we wouldnt have! As for the agent who called at 2am That 1 agent was wrong and im more than sure fired! That was 1 person who broke the rules not the entire company. This Erik R person was standing up for the company in the first post when he was still working there, but it seems like after u lost ur job is when u got on here and started down talking the company? STILL UPSET HUH? LOL! Get over it! And as was said they have the right to call whom ever is listed in the national database as a possible contact for the person they r looking for. Every1 does not always update their information so if you receive a call thats for some1 u dont know simply tell them that. I dont know that person please dont call me again. Simple as that! But at the same time with my experience when i was there im sure i spoke with over 100 people who said they were not the person we were looking for but in fact were. When this happens guess what we have to invalidate your actual number and try to get in contact with u thru others. And for the fam and friends who want to be nosey and find out what it is before actually helping out make it harder on us and themselves. WE CAN NOT RELEASE ANY1S PRIVATE INFO TO JUST ANY1! THAT IS Y THEY HAVE TO VERIFY THAT THEY ARE SPEAKING WITH THE CORRECT PERSON. HP Locate is simply a Locating company not a debt collector. They locate people, Thats the damn job!! Heritage Pacific is the company that HP Locate comes from and they are the actual collectors. Do ur homework!!
My caller ID showed 469-341-9107. They asked my wife to have me call 1-888-331-1438. I called back and they asked about David Sr. I asked about the nature of the call and was advised they were representing a third party client who had some very important information for David Sr but of course they would not provide anything else. I said I didn't know him and told them not to call my house again. I then found this thread. We shall see what happens.
H.P.Locate called me as a private investigator. When I asked for the private investigators state Id number was told it was private. HA HA Funny. Told them that are state attorney general had warned of these phishing scams an I would be contacting them ASP. He hung up and has not called back to date.
HP Debt Exchange (www.hpdebtexchange.com) is behind the HP Locate calls. I would encourage everyone who is getting these harassing HP Locate calls to call HP Debt Exchange at (972) 996-5100 and give them a piece of your mind. I call them up and call them every name in the book until they hang up on me! And I call them 10 times for every 1 time that they call me or any of my friends or relatives.
I have a common name, and this is yet another call (this says HP Locate...that urgently needs to get hold of me today)....has the right name but I don't owe any money to anyone. Thank heavens for caller ID
