I picked up the phone, but automatic message told me that they can't reach me (first time calling, by the way) and that if I don't contact them, they will proceed with legal matter against me in my absence. The call was from Alberta, Edmonton, but I live in Mississauga, Ontario. The left the phone to call
1-800-588-4024. I was trying to call back right away, but the telephone didn't connect and I heard talks on the background like it was private place, not organization.
I googled the phone they left and found out that it is collection agency in Mississauga. I got rid of it last year through the complaint to the Ministry of Consumer (as the "debts" were fake, I had no debts in reality, but they threatened me to spoil my credit history if I don't pay and that it is easier to pay than to proof that I don't owe the money), ... and now they are back, already another person... As I understand a person from the last year gharassment sold my name and "debts" to another one. Great. What a work..
Heater, did they call you again? I got a call today...And there was automatic message threatening to proceed with legal matter against me in my absence (if I don't call them)
I have no reason to be contacted by any collection agency. And real collection agency contacts people over mail (Canada post), not over the phone. Just wanted to follow up if they called you again and you found out more
They keep calling and calling looking for some guy named Gabriel. Has been going on for 5 years....that is right 5 years of this harassment. I talk to them each time and the liars say they will remove my number but nope....it continues into infinite. I have never heard of this guy Gabriel, I don't know a single person named Gabriel but they still keep calling and calling and calling.
How do I get these idiots to stop....my number according to all of the different named people I have spoken to has been removed but this doesn't stop.
We received a record message just like the people above and we also have dealt with a collection agency in Mississauga called NCRI or National Credit Recovery Inc. These people are not following the rules - they are required to notify you by mail (NOT EMAIL) and cannot call you for at least 6 days after they have notified by mail. We got an email first, then this recorded message and it all relates to the closing of Premier Fitness who closed their doors but are still trying to get money for services they are not providing. If you have been contacted by this number get in touch with the Ministry of Consumer Services Consumer Protection Branch and report them. This is the only way to stop these types of people.
