Then its time to send them a Cease & Desist letter. See my post above as well for the how to's. Porfolio is a known bad actor and has been sued repeatedly.
Some Tips:
*Keep all messages
*Take a picture of your Caller ID
*Keep any and all conversations recorded to your states recording laws, some require they be told, others do not. This can be transferred to a recording device.
*Keep a notebook handy for writing time,date, who you spoke with and what the conversation detailed.
*Check your SOL for your state as well.
*Attorneys need to be licensed as a DC to collect, all DC's must be licensed in their state as well as yours if different.
I get several calls a DAY from Portfolio Recovery. No one ever says anything and just hangs up after I answer the call. This is a very annoying thing as I am at the front desk of a very busy company. STOP CALLING!!!
They call every day. Never answer when I pick up. Never leave a message. When I called them, they want to know what number I'm calling from, who I am etc. etc. I have told them to stop calling but to no avail. Like a bunch of zombies.
