Paul W posted here in 2014. He was talking about a collection agency. Collection agencies are not telemarketers (who by definition are using a telephone to sell you something). there fore the law that they fall under is the FDCPA or Fair Debt Collection Practices Act which specifies what they can and cannot say to a third party.
Now if they are calling you about something else, that would fall under the Telemarketing Sales Rule and the TCPA.
These people call mine and my wife's phone they are
Very rude when my wife got the call they asked for me. I was not available so she asked who was calling the girl said Ashley but she would not say what company she was with this Ashley also called my wife's phone under a BLOCKED PHONE NUMBER LIKE DIALING *67 BEFORE CALLI G
THESE PPL NEED STOPPED!!!
It's First Premier Credit Card Company. I have an account with them. My card stays paid, but they never quit calling about trying to get me to sign up for credit card protection services that I don't want. They have been told no, and won't quit calling, so I blocked their number. Problem solved.
