Nice to know I'm not alone! We live on the second floor of a three apartment building. Two weeks ago, we got a call from a "gym" for Alex H. Alex lives on the first floor. Today, we got a call from ADA for John J. He lives on the third floor. It was bad enough getting calls for US from telemarketers; now they call us asking for other tenants in our building! I know the calls are from telemarketers because I cant call them back. I'll call and get a recording telling me that the number has been disconnected, 3 minutes after I get a call from that number. I wish that I could push a button on my phone that would send an signal to their freaking phones and blow them up!

John reynolds keeps calling me , asking for my mom & just says he needs to speak to her about some business & says my number was given as a secondary contact which is straight BS . he even called our neighbor asking for my mom & he's getting annoying as hell

DO NOT CALL NO MORE

COllection Agency in my case for Chase Credit card accounts

Just got a call from a John Reynolds-Alliance One- saying that he has some important business to talk to my Uncle but won't tell me what it is regarding. He kept repeating his name over again. It was annoying cause then he said he was going to call again later.

If these people are ligitimate why are they affraid to have their name connected to their phone number?  Got the same call from Macy leaving a voicemail so garbled that you could not understand anything but the number to call her back.  Just by reading these comments did we find out the company name.  When you tell them that they have the wrong number you are just a liar to them so they keep calling you.  Stopping the insanity is unattainable.

Well, in reading all the comments it sounds like people think that we just don't want to pay our debts anymore. When the reality of it is (in most cases) is that we just can't afford to pay them anymore because of some downfall in our lives. It's best to try to work with the creditors to try to come up with some arrangement to pay them off. I agree that they need more people skills but if you remain calm when speaking with them they most likely will be easier to work with.

Maybe you should eat my a**. Or failing that, try following the FDCPA for once.

if you gets calls like this, don't be mad at the person on the other line, they are just doing their job.  instead you should be mad at yourself (if you're the debtor) or at the debtor for not paying the credit card bill.  oh in some states, information cannot be disclosed to the spouses unless given permission by the debtor!  KNOW YOUR STATE LAWS!!!

creditors are getting bailouts because of debtors who won't pay back their debts.  people should stop living above their means and maybe this country won't be borrowing money from china or japan!

when money is due to any creditor, the creditor has the right to use a method called skiptracing to locate the debtor, even if that means calling third parties.  there are laws that protect both the creditor and the debtor.  if you get these calls, simply verbally cease them from calling you again.  they will respect that because these collection agencies do not want to break any laws.  as for the debtor, if you know them, then simply tell the debtor to stop running and be the adult they were when they first opened up the credit card.

Got a call from Macy today as well - Alliance One - they need to be hit by train.  She was asked if the call had to do with a certain bank and she went into a BS story that she couldn't say.  When told the bank had received permission to speak with me vs. relative she wanted no part of it.  Told that person didn't live here any longer and didn't call me back she continued to refuse to be cooperative or nice.  She then called a neighbor with a BS story about looking for that person and was told they didn't live here she ended the call with just this "exchange" number which cannot be re-called.

This s*** head group needs to talk nicer, stop lying or man up and come do a face to face - doubt it.  Anyway if they call it is because the f-----g banks screwed us all by giving credit to people who couldn't pay for a McDonald's burger, the Clinton Admin. gave everyone who couldn't buy that same burger a house and now "WE" bailed them out and they want to screw with us.  Go figure - Stay in Minnesota!!!

calling for someone other than myself. do not like getting phone calls that has nothing to do with me!!! they need to pull the stick outta their a** and shove it down their throats. collection agency or not, they need to respect peoples privacy.

I got a voicemail today from Macy saying she needed to speak with my husband but left no company name or what it is in regards too so I'm not responding.

I got a call from a person named macy, saying that she wanted to talk to one of our neighbour in the same apartment complex. She said she couldn't talk to the person because their phone # is disconnected. I don't know how she got our number and knew my husband's name. She also knew that we and the neighbour live in the same complex. She asked me to put a memo on their door or talk to this person so that the person can call her back. I didn't know that she was from a collection agency until I came to this page.

the caller was also named macy

i got a call saying that they needed to talk to my sister who does not live with me , how she knew who i was or who my sister was i don't know. we have different last names. their phnoe # was on my caller id so i called it back and they knew right away who they were talking to even though the call reallt was not for me but for my sister.

A person by the name of Macey is calling,harassing a tenant looking for a previous tenant.The current tenant has no clue about the previous tenant and has told them to quit calling but they disregard and continue calling.Somehow they correlate the address to the new tenants phone number.The old tenant lives in another state.I'm sure the postal service has a forward address.

This number actually belongs to a Collection Agency known as AllianceOne and the phone number is for a Zara.

This company will only call you if you have an outstanding balance on a loan or a credit card through one of their clients.

Got a call from this Number also saying that her name was kera. She said she needed to speak with me.  Called back and got a machine.  Left no company name.

Call me at home, only left her name as keira, and that she needed to speak with me, i called back and got and answering machine, did not identify what the purpose of the call or company
