The phone call is from Great Lakes Higher Education attempting to collect on defaulted student loans.  They called my work after having asked them numerous times in the past to refrain from calling my office.

You in fact are an idiot. The people working at allied interstate are the most rude disrespectful a***oles I have ever come in contact with. They are harassing my sister and not only that but they continue to hang up if you call back. I called because they some how got my number asked for a supervisor WHICH I DO NOT THINK HE WAS ONE and he too was very rude and disrespectful...they have been sued by many people for harassing and threatening calls. If you ink they are ga great collection agency you are a dumbass

They leave messages on answering machines telling it to hang up if it isn't the person they ask for. So is there a new machine that does that. As my answering is more then 3 years old, and only hangs up after the person that called hangs up. OH I have my answering machine set on 2 rings to avoid nuisances calls who hang up after the second ring.
Now they  are leaving messages that umplies they are from a lawyer an that I have 24 hours to response to their call.

Got a call from a "Wendy Smith" who threatened I'd be sued for an old debt unless I settled immediately. She never stated the name of the company she worked for. I played along and negotiated a settlement but then she wanted my bank routing number so the debt could be paid immediately. I told her that I thought it was a scam and if it wasn't a scam she should provide evidence to the contrary. I haven't heard from her since. Do not be intimidated by these low lifes. They are trying to rob you!!!

Moved into my mothers house on May 22, 2012.  On June 2, 2012 Received a message from Paul Servino, company unknown; looking for my mother; saying that it is a Washington State legal matter that she has an obligation to call back.

Not sure why we received the call; my mother no longer lives in this house, we have an unlisted phone number with no reference to my mother anywhere on our accounts.

Pariahs all of them! ! !

Sounds to me Sammy that you might be a employee of this Allied Interstate.  And if you are you need to read the rules of correct collection calls.  You are not allowed to call after in some states 8 pm.  I will tell you what an collection agency calling after 8pm would be reported and I would make sure they followed rules set up to protect who is making and getting the call.

Tell you what Sammy instead of jumping bad a** here you go and take care of the callers in your place of employment and make sure they are all following the rules, because what was said here definitely needs to be reported.

I recieved a call from this number from "Cynthia Garcia" who told me that an affidavit had been filed in her office and that it was assigned case number blah blah, and it would take place in the "General Assembley Court" and that I should contact her for details, and to please reference case # blah blah blah.  Basically I thought I was being sued but realized if that was the case I would be served by a person and not a random vm message left on a non identifiable vm.  I called back and this woman told without proper verification of who I was, that I needed to pay this bill for a car I havent owned in about 5 years, and after she rattled off whatever, I said "ma'am, in what county and state is this case # valid for the court case. thats all I want to know from you" and she lost it, and started yelling at me telling me she never said anything about a case # or court, and that she was not going to put up with my abuse, (I was not even speaking through all of this) and then she disconnected my call.  I never was able to get the name of the company or the address and when I call back they put me to VM, or they answer, say "hold please" and leave me on hold for ten minutes.  Do not allow this idiots to intimidate you. I am mailing my complaint to Tallahassee along with the transcription of the vm message to at least get them to stop calling me.  If anyone has more information about who they are I would appreciate it.

They are nothing but SCAMMERS!!!!!!!!   SCAMMERS!!!!!!!!!!   SCAMMERS!!!!!!!  BLOOD SUCKING SCAMMERS!!!!!  FOREIGN SCAMMERS!!!!!  They will say anything to try and collect AMERICAN money because our American money is worth more than their worthless currency.  Do not give these people the time of day.  Just block them from calling your cell and your landline.  Every phone company has features to block idiots like them from calling you.  Just keep a record of their phone numbers and everytime they call just go to your phone company and list their number to block it. They are bottom feeders, scum buckets, every low name in the book.  I know you get my point.  Nothing but SCAMMERS!!!  Do not let them scare you or your family. They are nothing but idiots, low life, SCAMMERS!!!

Agreed. No one that I know takes up for these collection agencies. I agree we should pay our debt but in alot of cases we have changing situations and just cannot pay these bills. Its not like writing an intentional hot check.

I received a call on my cell phone this am from a Unvailable caller, I dont answer calls I dont know, and this guy by the name of Michael Snow called and stated they hve a case #,  and with my local court office this is not the first time they have called. My question is if they have all this info why dont they just send me a letter? The little titmouse, they get on my nerves, so in response to the earlier post, I ma going to write that address and inform them to remove my info from their files and that I am sending  a copy to the states attorney office for 'harrasment" and slander and any other thing I can think of.
And hopefully this will put a stop to this....

they did the same thing to me stating I had a warrent, when I called them they asked me if  this is "ryan with SSI # ***-**-****" I said no, even thou it was right after 3 guesses. I filed a report against them at www.ftc.gov I hope everyone else does the same, I work for a bank and that is ill eagle under Bank Regulations B and Z act. and they thought the abbreviation for Nebraska (NE), is New England, I guess he is a dropout from school. there is no state in the United States that is New England. and if it is from over seas, why would I have a debt here calling on a US phone? is it possible, yes, but highly highly unlikely. If they threaten you, report them to the FTC!  some cases you may be rewarded $1000 from the FTC for there harassment, but don't count on it, here is an example (like what they are doing) http://www.ftc.gov/opa/2011/03/wam.shtm

and the rules they have to follow by: http://www.ftc.gov/bcp/edu/pubs/consumer/credit/cre18.shtm

That account, if 15 years old since the last date of  activity, is beyond the statute of limitations in most states for credit cards.  They have no legal recourse and be sure to check your credit report to make sure they are not putting it on there.  Also, if any activity occurs on the account, most states will restart the statute of limitations, then you're on the hook for the account and unless you have documents proving payment and settlement it won't go well.

You can send them a cease and desist letter stating that the statute of limitations has expired for this debt and that they are no longer permitted to contact you about it.

Check your state's statute of limitations, just Google it.

No, you, Sammy are an idiot -- and a shill for scumbags. Less than 2% of the poor people scumbags like Allied call owe money to anyone -- the rest are just the unfortunate people on the other end of the line that Allied is calling, looking for someone, or anyone, they can collect from.

They carpet-bomb call -- they call anyone on the same street, anyone with a similar name, anyone on a street with a similar name, etc.  They reverse-lookup numbers by address and call the people next door, etc. No matter how many times the poor people tell them they have no idea what they're talking about or who they're looking for, they keep calling.  

THEY CALLED US FOR YEARS LOOKING FOR SOMEONE WHO USED TO LIVE DOWNSTAIRS FROM US IN A MULTI-UNIT BUILDING WE LIVED IN BRIEFLY 10 YEARS AGO. Because we used to live in the same building as someone they were looking for.

If you're unlucky enough to actually speak to one of them, they accuse you of being the person they're looking for -- or of hiding that person.  AND THEY KNOW THEY'RE LYING.  They're just beating the rugs, hoping they'll actually stumble upon someone they're looking for -- and they don't care who they bother or what they say to everyone else -- and they LAUGH about it. It's just a game to them.

They are the scum of the earth.  And so are you, for defending them.

Hello , I too was bothered by this annoying little man ( Whom i pictured as peggy from those capital one commercials ) . For two months i would see this # on my caller ID but never got around to answering it ( I don't usually pick up numbers I'm unfamiliar with ) anyhoo when i did finally decide to answer he gave me some bs story about an unpaid credit card from 1996 . I inform " peggy " that i do not now nor have i ever owned any type of credit card , or for that matter owed any kind of debt ( I'm an old fashion cash paying kind of guy ) I let peggers know that he has called the wrong person ( on so many levels ) & the wrong number , that i didn't know or care about any of this , that it was neither my debt nor problem or concern . I then reiterated this 3 times & told peggo NOT! to ever call again , that doing so would be viewed as an act of harassment & result in Me seeking a lawyer . I then hanged up on the ole pegginator while he was in mid sentence , really miss the old school corded phones you could SLAM! down on someone instead of just daintily touching the off button with my pinky finger . Anyhoo that was over a month ago & I haven't heard back from peggy sue ( maybe he got married ) So this is my whale of a tale & if this worked for me maybe some of you should give this tactic a try , keep in mind everything i said was true so if you really do owe money don't lie . Ok its late , I'm old & need a nap , peace out homies .

I have been receiving phone calls from these guys regarding my husband's account from 15 years ago.  He had a card which he paid off and than threw away.  Now they are saying that he did not pay it off and we owe all of this money with interest from 15 years ago.  I asked that they please provide me with all of the information regarding this old account so that we could see what had happened.  They informed me that the account information is too old to access and it will not be possible.  Without any proof, what should we do?  These guys call me every day too, sometimes six times per day.  He says the same thing, pay the money, I say the same thing, show me some proof.  We are not getting anywhere.  Now  My three year old is really enjoying speaking with them.

Have just moved and have a brand new unlisted phone number. We just started receiving several calls a day from 800-214-8742. I can't confirm if this is a collection agency (as other posters have reported) as they never leave a message and the caller id does not identify the name -- only the phone number. We know of no reason for debt collectors to be calling us; in fact we have not even had the chance to update our new phone & address with any legitimate creditors or companies we do business with. So as far as we are concerned, these calls are a nuisance and a hoax. Glad our new phone has blocking capabilities!!!!
