Receive calls every few days stating "This is ACSI contactin gyou regasrdig an important personal business matter.... You can contact us duing normal business hours at 866-637-1808."
I've been receiving calls from this number for a month or so now. The message was after a long pause the followng message has been left on my answering machine. "This is ACSI, we're contacting you regarding an important personal business matter, you may speak with an agent now by pressing 0. You may also reach us at 866.637.1808 during normal business hours. To avoid futher attempts to reach you, please act now." I finally called this number after reading these posts. I spoke to a very pleasant collection agency representative who requested the number that they are calling and then he asked if a person by the name of Julie Meyer had lived at my address. When I said no, he said that he would remove my number. I then asked how did they get my number in the first place and he said Julie Meyer gave it as her number. I said that I did not know a Julie Meyer. He they asked how long I had my number. When I said 20 years, he aplogized and repeated that he has removed my number. It sounds ligitimate. Thank you.
Interesting that so many people are receiving calls from this outfit. More surprising is that no one has posted the phone number or even better the fax number for Active Credit.
When I answer they will not identify themselves and hang up before I can advise them to place me on their DO NOT CALL list.
More later if I can come up with numbers for them.
BTW, I don't owe anyone so these are particularly annoying to me.
Hmmm, as soon as I postged the last note the window reloaded and I found the phone number for Active Credit. I called them and was informed by a woman who answered the phone that DO NOT CALL does not apply to them.
I immediately redials and spoke with a man named Aaron. I was loud and made it clear that I have no connection to them or any of their clients and wanted my name taken off their call list. He assured me it would be done immediately.
My intention now is if I receive another call tomorrow I will call them again, and again, and again, anytime I have a few free minutes. Since my cell phone has all the time in the world on it I will pester them the way they pester everyone else. I may even make a sales pitch for obscure crap, offer carpet cleaning services, or better yet ask to speak to people that don't live their the way they do.
There should be a concerted effort to aggravate these [***] the way they aggravate everyone else.
I have thesame problem from all the posted e read. This telephone 503-000-0000 has been calling me for the last 6 months. I really don't know what to do to stop it. If anyone has succed wiht this, please let me know. thanks, lala
