This number has been calling me everyday but they never leave a message. I am in no way over due on any bill nor have I had a over due bill in the past 10 years since my divorce. So I have blocked them! My phone system makes it very easy to block a number.

Allied Interstate is an network of CON artists. Envision is another. Same old, same old robo call centers. Banks around the country are familiar with them all. If these predators ever get hold of any information about you - if you ever give them any information, a credit card or bank acct. number, they will drain it dry within 24 hours. A commercial banker friend says that even the smaller regional banks and credit unions are now seeing these fraudsters, cleaning out entire accounts of thousands of dollars in phony eChecks or wire transfers before you know they've hit. Yes, it is illegal and yes, it is a felony. But no one seems to ever prosecute or stop them. So, you'll be forced to then file with your bank or credit card corp. a legal doc for fraud against these con artist companies. Your bank/credit card company might or might not be able to get your money back for you. Better to *just not pick up the phone* or deal with them in any way. People, we're a decade from when everyone ought have figured this out by now, especially after every cockroach in the world amped up scamming weary Americans post-2008.

This company has done this for years and breaks every regulation of the FDCPA - the federal law that protects people from debt collectors. The FTC explains is pretty clearly here:
http://www.consumer.ftc.gov/articles/0149-debt-collection
Ask for their company name, personal name and contact info. They are required by law to identify themselves. Say that you demand that they "cease and desist" the calls. Legally, that is enough, but it's good to follow up with a registered letter. They have to stop calling you even if you are the person they're calling for and even if you do have the past due debt.

This number has called several times today. Finally I answered them b/c I'm tired of the collection calls for the person who previously had this number. I couldn't understand a word the guy said, and usually I'm pretty good with the middle eastern accents. I hung up and called the number right back to try to get off their list, but I couldn't understand a word he said either. Geesh, if they're trying to collect on something, you'd think they'd at least speak a little bit of English.

Calls 3-5 times daily, every day. Leaves NO message. SO annoying. Another GREAT example of the No Call List epic failure. PLEASE STOP!!!

The number in question belongs to Allied Interstate (note: not Allied International - totally different company). Call Allied Interstate at 866-526-7795 to complain or have your number removed.

They keep calling , I counted 17 times on my caller id and they never leave a message. I finally called back to see who it was. They asked for my husbands sisters in-law. We have never lived with her. Plus, they asked for her in her maiden name! She has been married for 20 years!! They claim they will remove us from the list. But, I'm not getting my hopes up.

I am recieving daily calls from this number and when I answer they hang up. When I don't answer they don't leave a message. Who are they?
| Lori 2012-09-05 14:57:45 Unknown |
Received two calls from this number - rejected both times no message was left, anyone know who it is?
| Alan 2012-09-03 13:26:05 Unknown |
Called early Sunday morning and woke me up, only to hang up when I said hello. Seems to be mass dialing operation of a sort.

Caller ID said "Allied Interstate". Not recognizing the number, I did not answer, but then gave them a call back. A live person answered and asked what I wanted. I said that I had received a call but had been disconnected. She looked up the number and said they were trying to reach "Karen". I said there was no one here by that name, so she said "I will remove this number from our database". I asked what the call was regarding, and she said that it was personal for Karen. It sounds to me as if the other comments about it being either a fake, or irreputable collection agency are probably true.

Man with a foreign accent asked for my husband and said it was personal business. Wanted to know if we lived at an old address. I refused to give it to him. He refused to tell me the nature of the personal business. I told him if he refused to tell me, I would refuse to talk to him. I hung up.

Like many others I to have started getting calls from 866-720-1471. When I answer there is no response.. A couple of days ago someone did answer and his accent was so thick I could not understand what he was saying. He sounded like he was from Pakistan. I finally figured out after asking him to repeat everything he was saying 4 to 5 times that he was trying to collect for AOL. I told him I cancelled the service in Dec. of 2010 and he argued the point that I still owed $59.00. I don't understand how I could owe any late balance since they were charging my credit card monthly for the service. If they expect me to pay after I cancelled they can take a flying leap.

Everybody who have posted above comments are correct on the contrary but u should know that allied interstate is a legitemate debt collection agency headquartered at columbus ohio, it has 21 centres all across the world and it is america's second largest collection agency.The collections are done not only fr america but fr australia, canada,uk and other countries as well.
AOL is one of the clients and collectios are done in india , technically the # is dialled from U.S and thru VOIP forwarded to india centre , all calls are based on a dialer and are nt dialled fron INDIA ,so dont panic if AOL is fraud complain them as why they have gvn ur acc within collections (aol # 8008664214).
TRUTH:- THEY DO REPORT TO UR CREDIT BUREAU IF U DONT PAY YOUR BILLS .
SO PAY UR BILL AND GET OUT OF THE CALLS .
THANK U,
AOL collections INDIA

No message; probably doing a skip-trace for "Erika" again :)

They called me on Monday, Oct. 26 at 6:41 p.m., Oct.21 a 6:41 p.m., Oct. 23 at 8:31 a.m.,
Oct. 25 at 8:21 a.m. 1:33 p.m., 4:36 p.m.,7:38 p.m., and all of this on a cell phone that I only use for emergencies. I am getting more calls when I hang up on them. I am ready to get a different phone. I have had my share of calls from collectors since I acquired this phone number when I purchased Trac Fone.
| Mina001 2011-06-06 21:02:58 Unknown |
This company calls at least 4 times a day. They never leave a message. We just got the phone number they are calling and I just called them back. Some lady that did not speak clear English kept wanting personal information and I hung up on her.
It is against the fair credit law to set a phone for auto dial to harass people. Find a fair credit lawyer if it continues and it will go away and they will be fined.
| Annette 2011-06-06 21:02:58 Unknown |
I've been getting calls from this number daily for weeks. They never, ever leave a message, and I'm certainly not going to answer. Jerks.
