They just called me on a number i've only had for a week. It's not even in my name. I don't know where Drive
Financial got my number. absolute crap. They have called every day for 18 days.
This number belongs to drive financial.... it's for people with low credit or bad credit who want to get car financed. My husband and I had to go through them because even though he had good credit, he had too many things on his credit. But as son as your a day or two late, Drive Financial with start calling obsessively until they have their payment. I have informed them I sent my payment in, and yet they still call 5-8 times a day. I would pay over the phone, unfortunately, they charge about $10 just to give them the payment over the phone, and the mail takes forever for them to process, so it leaves you in a bind. this happens about every month to me and I'm getting tired of it. If their calling and you don't have a loan with them, then it's most likely because somebody put you as a reference and failed to inform you.

I was apparently a reference for someone they are looking for and have told them repeatedly that I was only her landlord and haven't seen her in over two years and they were supposed to have "noted that in their records" but the calls keep coming. This time a message was left with a number to call. I tried to call the number that he left and got a "massage/sex" recording after the first three or four words on the recording I hung up He must of gotten his work number mixed up with something else.
This number is certainly Drive Financial. I bought my house in 2007. The lady who sold to me, had rented the house to tenants and evicted them about a year before I purchased the house from her. I've now owned the house for about 1.5 years and the entire time, Drive Financial has been sending me billing statements to the previous renters at my address. I suppose the previous renters don't know how to manage their bills by updating with their new address! I politely mark the mail "return to sender, addressee unknown", but Drive Financial never gets the message.
One day I got tired of politely sending the mail back to sender, so I opened the envelope "gasp!" (I know I violated some stupid law somewhere, not common sense law however). Knowing that Drive would assume I was lying, I masked my CID with *67. I explained my situation and requested that I never see another piece of mail from Drive. The representative was actually very helpful and explained that I would not see anything else from Drive Financial.
Then today, I got two calls from Drive Financial at the number I had masked before calling in. CID masking is obviously worthless if the other end can "unmask" it. The first call was just silent. I said "hello" a few times and then hung up with no response. The second call came right after the first call, and a vaguely familiar voice (I think it was the voice of the rep that I had explained my situation too a few days earlier), said "Is Jeffrey there?". Knowing that Jeffrey is the name on all the envelopes that I returned, and knowing that my name has always been Brandon, I replied "There is no Jeffrey at this number.", to which the caller abruptly hung up.
Watch out for Drive Financial. They have terrible debt collection methods when they begin reversing CID masking to see if they can catch their debtor at a phone number that has never previously been in their database. I'm considering contacting a Texas law enforcement agency if the calls from Drive Financial continue.
Now I have to deal with junk mail and junk calls from Drive Financial. I should have called from a pay phone.
