I have been being harassed about these stupid magazines i subscribed to last year. They mislead me an i stupidly gave my info. They charged me 3 times an i changed my debt card so they would stop. Since than they constantly harass me saying i owe $735 or more. They never sent me my "welcome" packet or the gifts they promised. The company was so called "Active Periodicals". They finally stoppd harassing and now i have this new company calling me "Interstate Recovery" saying their debt collectors and that their a 3rd party and will settle for $499. They sent me an email about the order and all of a sudden the magazine company is called countrywide periodicals! I dont know what to do about this situation
I got a call today caller id said western dental and they wanted to settle a debt for 1,300 for magazines I ordered in sept 2012,i never order magazines and she said there all women magazines,and im a guy ,I told them I will report id theft to police.they hung up fast,beware they must be scammers number is 661-281-0310
He said he would settle for 800ish or 600ish, two different options. The more I think about it, the more bogus he seems. He made a long speech and I didn't catch it all, but he did specifically say that the debt isn't on our credit report. As far as I know, all debts are on your credit reports, even if a third party buys it. Isn't that true? I should have asked what type of payment he'll accept, and what he'll willing to give me in writing first. I finally blocked his calls today.
Yeah i received a call last night late at like 9pm from some lady saying that she was calling about a magazine subscription and that i owed $200 something dollars and that i could settle it over the phone for $114 before it went to a collection agency. number came up as WESTERN DENTAL and i told her i never ordered and magazines i run a business and have no time to read no damn magazines. she insisted she had my information and was desperately trying to get me to pay her until finally i told her i wasnt f*****g paying for something i never signed up for and that the conversation was being recorded.
