Called me 8 times in 1 day.  I finally answered as the City Morgue.  They asked for my mother in law (Who does not and has never lived with us).  Said I didnt know her.  Dude got kinda mad and hung up.  Have not called back since.  My number is only a few months old.  Not sure how they got it so quickly.

i'm sure u are all well and fine but its 8am to 9pm and the number of phone calls per day is some states not all.

I just mark the number NA (not to answer) then go on with life, Only problem is the can run down your battery.

Whenever I answer, they hang up. What the hell?
The calls have been coming about 5 times a day for months on end. I don't have any debt, nor have I ever. I don't even have student loans...So they have no reason to be calling me, especially not at 7 am.
I even called them to ask them not to call. Four hours later...I got another phone call.

5152222916 is the CBE Group.  They are a debt collector.  they called and aske for someone who does not own my number.  i just told them it was a wrong number.

This CBE Group called my number many times a day. I kept telling them that I did not know this person, and I never heard about him before. This is a new number for me. They just never gave up calling me for weeks. They even had someone called me in my primary language and asked for the same person again. I finally told them that if you ever called me again for the same reason. I would report it as phone harrasement to the police. It was very annoying

CBE Group woke me up on Saturday morning at 8:00.  They asked for Theresa.  I told them there was no Theresa here but later realized that my brother's grilfriend is Theresa.  I called them back.  They told me that they could not talk to me - they had to speak to the person that they were asking for and that they couldn't give me any information.  But how the hell did they get me phone #?

For the past several days, I have received several messages stating they are a collection agency

This CBE Group Inc. has been calling our home for about 6 weeks, every day twice a day.  I don't like to take every phone call that comes in; I see who it is via Caller ID. If I don't know them, I will not pick up but they can then leave a message.  Then I will decide if and when to call them back.  
     So every day, day after day they are calling and I am not responding. Whey don't they stop wasting their time and mine... stop calling PLEASE.
     If they have something to tell me or ask me, leave a message - why not?

I keep getting this call from 1 515 453 2970 everytime I answer no response. I called back and its busy. So here is the CEO's E-mail  trpenaluna@cbegroup.com let him know how annoying it is. Thomas R. Penaluna stop annoying us. Do your homework before you call.

I just received a call from this number asking for my brother. He doesn't live here! Then they asked how they could get a hold of him. Obviously I told them I won't give out that info. How did they get a hold of me? Who are these people?

any collection agency that calls and does not identify themselves as such is breaking both federal and state laws. i was a collector for 4 yrs and know what i am talking about. also more then three calls per day is against the fair debt collection act. anyone like to sue? also collection co. can not call efore 9 am or after 9 pm. i have recieved these calls all the times of day and night from this number.

Woke me up Sat. AM asking for "Kim Gomez" - one of my SIL's names is Kim Gomez but it's a fairly common name - told Bryan that Kim Gomez doesn't live here, never has, never will and I'm not in contact with her anyhow (which is the truth) -  and don't call here again - idiot hung up on me.  When I called back, got Bryan and he said he didn't hang up and that he had removed my number.  Wouldn't say why he was calling - but I'm sure it's a collection agency or something. He did identify his company name as CBE.

I called back the (515) 453-2970 and spoke with some jerk who referred to himself as "Timothy".  They were not calling for me or anyone in my household so I demanded that the calls stop.  He was so damn evasive when I called back.  He just said this is "Timothy" may I have your phone number?  Yeah, that sounds legitimate.  He finally gave up the company name CBE who "services many different clients."  (Really descriptive!)  Internet search got me here and he did not seem very happy when I said "Oh, I am looking you up on the internet.  You are a debt collector."  He still would not admit it.  He said (rudely) that no one would call again...we'll see. ...A**!

I just did a search and this link is where the calls are coming from..just dont't know how to stop the calls.

caller id came up from des moines

CBE Group Inc.(a collection agency)
1031 Office Park RD Ste 6 West
Des Moines, IA  50265-2582
Listed number 515-226-0218
They may call from this unlisted number 515-453-2970.

This number has been calling my cell phone for a few days.  I Googled the number and found lots of reports like this so I have yet to answer a call from this number.

This phone number apparently belongs to a collection agency called CBE Group Inc., or at least that was the name displayed on my caller ID.  One of their people called me today and asked for a person who had my phone number about five years ago.  When I told him he had the wrong number, he became abusive, and I responded in kind.  If he had just shut up for an instant, I could have told him the present phone number and address of the person he was looking for.  (I don't know her, but I have had so many calls for her that I finally looked up the information last year.)  I would file a complaint with the Better Business Bureau, but it turns out that CBE is a BBB member, so there is no point.
