I specifically registered my phone number in the National Do Not Call Registry and I still have annoying callers calling me. STOP CALLING!!!
Have no outstanding debt.
They are not going to fire this guy just because you are "Annoyed" and he gave you some incorrect information. It is very possible that he got the number from you credit report, which would be on there for over a decade. Or if that is not the case and you just got the phone number, he could of given you that information by mistake, maybe he is new, or it could of been a "computer error". Any of those excuses will fly in the collection world. I used to do collections and you would never get fired over that. As for being an FDCPA, yes if a collector lied intentionally, but in this case it is not, he gave you some incorrect info by "mistake". Anyways I know I used to do collections, to pay my bills, so I know your going to make some type of "shes prob a collector". The fact of the matter is what goes around comes around. This guys just doing his job to try and support his family, and you wanna get him fired. You owe the money, try and talk to them and they will try and work with you. Sometimes they won't. I got bill collectors calling me, breaking all kinds of laws. You owe the money!!!! You got nothin on this Terry person!!!!
If you tell them it is the wrong number, and you don't know the person, and to take your number out, they will stop calling. May have to do it more then once.
