these a***oles are retarded. i do in fact owe money but the way theyre going about it is rediculous. i made a deal to pay 200 on one date and they agreed to it, but they withdrew all the money on my prepaid card without me knowing. When i called to ask what in the hell they were doing, they said that i had agreed to it so they would review the call for me just in case. when i called back the next day, they were all "oops, we lost the record of that call." and im like suuuuuuuuuuuuuuure you did. Theyve even asked me if my parents could pay the whole $4000. im tempted to tell them to just go eat s*** and die because of how stupid thier being. they even tried to tell me they were going to suspend my liscence if i didnt pay. riiiiiiiiiiiight. dont believe anything these dumbasses threaten you with.

Yes,  I recently got call from this number too.  They knew way more abolut me than I remeber it myself.  Please don't believe them or don't give them your personal info.

These are evil people. Their information is generally erroneous and they apparently have access to a wide range of personal information that will only upset you. Tell them to have the original billing institution contact you. When I wouldn't give the fellow my Social Security number, he said it was okay that he knew all about me already. Then he proceeded to give me the name of a doctor from over two years ago -- a man who nearly killed me from his lack of attention to my case. The fellow also had the name of the doctors group and date of service incorrect. The information he did have has sent me on an emotional roller coaster because it was such an invasion of privacy. DO NOT GIVE THESE PEOPLE ANY INFORMATION. DO NOT PAY THEM. HELP PUT THEM OUT OF BUSINESS. To add insult to injury, I paid the bill they were looking for -- a TWENTY DOLLAR CO-PAY -- on the actual date of service.

Getting calls on my cell phone

called back
got CCS
he asked myname

said they had wrong number in their file

promised to remove ph #

i received a phone call this morning that read on my phone unknown name 0301? looked it up and came up with this number and its a scam. these people need to be stopped, hung up by their buster browns and get a life. how the hell do these people sleep at night, pretty well knowing they preyed on the weak. they need to be stopped by the FBI

its not valid when you receive tha call for some one elses bill. if tha person who they try to call disconects their phone. some one else gets that same number. making it confusing for tha proud owner of the new phone number. its very difficult to get in contact with ccs. when you do get in contact, no one wants to help you not receive those calls. i do not find that valid. i find that rediculous.

 Feed them a full serving of their own Shi* Call them back and ask for whatever name they called YOU looking for. When they say she/he isn't here tell them well she/he isn't HERE either! and tell them you will call back and keep calling back until they stop harassing you! Then call them a thousand times if necessary until you drive THEM crazy with calls. When it finally seems to get on their nerves ( It won't take long ) then give them the number you want them to stop calling.

 Wanna play dirty? My favorite is to keep their local number handy, then when a harassing call comes in from a different company I give this companies number as a "good contact number" for whomever they are looking for. Once it's in that companies database it won't come out! The telemarketers can then harass each other!  Or you can give out their number as a fax line to whomever you wish, (again, other telemarketers or collectors are great for this )let THEM receive fax calls all day and night. But remember, when YOU call a toll free number they will see your number on their bill as they are paying for the call and they are entitled to your number even if you block it.

stop calling my number i dont owe you any money you are harassing me

Never get into bed with a collections agent, they're the scum of the world.

They got off on people's misfortunes and should all be shot to death.

Before signing up with a doctor, figure out which agencies they fork bills out to that are late.

If its a big company like this, you don't want them.

You should find their building in Massachusetts and rip it down with all of their employees inside.

Collection Agencies are a scar on America.

No money is being sent to a company that operates this way, not out of my wallet.

Got a call from them today.

ID says they are CPS.

They had the right name, but I don't communicate with computers, only people.  Especially when it has anything to do with financial or "private" matters.

-E

When I see their number I ask for their name before they say anything.
After they give me their name I ask for their birth date for verification purposes.

They hang up

These people call me @ 7:30am. I don't know what they want I can't get an answer so I blocked the call with *60. I don't know where everyone is from, but it blocks ANY number that you don't want calling.

Keeps calling at odd hours -- don't know who this is or why they are harrasssing -- do not know them.  Will not answer calls without Caller ID -- just says Toll Free Call.  Who cares if it's the caller's call toll free!  I owe no money and have made no requests for any services to have such a call.

I rec'd a call from 877-289- 0301 with a recording telling me to call and verify my acct number with an important business matter.
I called and got CCS.They told me that i owe a bill from when a radiology company...which might be true! Im going to call the radiology company and double check though,since it could be a fraud.

This is a collection agency who buys 'debts' for pennies on the dollar - debts that were written off by the original holder of the debt - this agency starts calling everyone with the same name trying to find the one they want that actually owed the debt - could have been years ago - DO NOT give them any personal information other than you are NOT the person they are seeking and advise them that it is THEIR responsibility to prove the debt belongs to you or belonged to you - not the other way around - DO NOT give them any personal information - tell them to send you the proof they have that it is YOU - they obviously have your phone and address - If you ever look up your personal information like on ANYWHO.COM  - then click on the link that gives you more information on yourself - a page will come up w/your name and listed w/you are names of your relatives - YES - they are there! That is one of the ways these scumbags get the names of your children and others ever associated w/you. I don't know how but my name, husband and all our children appeared on this report - now, if you want to go further it will cost you  - but this info is out there for anybody to see - very disturbing. Hope this helps. I called this company back and had them mail their 'proof' of the debt and of course it was not mine - sent them a letter back and also called them from home phone and NOT my cell phone - telling them it was not me they were after - they finally quit calling my cell number.

Calls several times a day and is automated so I can not have it stopped. I call customer service and am on hold indefinetely. This should be illegal as it is costing me minutes and money.

If it is a collection agency for the guy who previously had my cell phone number then it should be a person who can verify I am not him and remove my and stop hassling me.

keeps leaving me messages for people that i have never heard of oneday its a korean next spanish .. getting kind a pissed off, once they called me 4 times in a row n 5 minutes apart.

I believe my X wife works for this collection agency since her first corporate experience was with OSbourne Associates, another collection firm. They have been calling my phones for years under false pretenses. I don't owe any money to any business. I believe she is using it simply to keep tabs on my whereabouts. I'm am preparing legal action to stop this harrassment.

They've called my corporate wireless phone for a year asking for Katlin Mackenzie. No matter how many times I tell them I don't know anyone by that name, they keep calling twice a month. I'm changing the number tomorrow since my wireless phone company is going to waive the fee.

This Number has been calling me for nearly a year with automated and person calls always asking for a Katlin MacKenzie. It does no good to tell them that this is now a corporate business phone and that there is no one by that name associated with the number any longer. They have run the gammit from politeness to rudeness. They have even suggested that I pay the fees to have my number changed to avoid their calls. Really big ones, this company.

Same story as above they somehow knew my name and the fact that I go to Temple University because they tried to say they were collecting debt on behalf of Temple

I just recieved a call from 877-289-0301 from CCS. It was automated and asking for me to press one if that is correct.  I just hung up.  I have delt with them a year ago.  They kept telling me that I owe money for my deceased mother's credit card...I checked with the credit card company and they said that there was no debt.

Just because it's "a valid call" doesn't mean that the bill they're calling about is "valid".

There sure is a lot of recent messages in this thread bragging about how valid this company's activities are. Just a coincidence, I'm sure.
