If this is on your credit report, protest through reporting agency because the company reporting has to show proof. If they do not, you can demand removal. Also, do a google search. Plenty of lawyers take these, sue and win. Many times, no out of pocket fees to you the consumer. Fight back and good luck

This company claims my husband owes them 9,000$.  We recieved a statement from this company about a month ago.  I call the number, and try to get some verification as why we are recieving statements of a debt he supposely owes, when in fact he doesnt.  They say the original owner of the debt is heritage bank...?? this account was "opened" in 2007.  My husband would have been 20 years old at this time.  His mother had to put him on her cell plan, because he had NO credit to get his own line.  Seems odd a bank would give a 20year old a 9000$ credit card, when he had no credit, and couldnt even get a phone line in his own name.  This seems sketchy because when I asked them for a statement to shows original dates, payments, purchases, they said they do not have that and I would need to call Heritage.  hmm...Im not sure if a company is allowed to collect on a supposed debt, not knowing if its valid and then they are placing extremely negative things on his credit report.  They cant provide anything for us to verify where this debt is coming from.  We are trying to buy a home and are dealing with crap like this.  THis is a huge dent in his credit rating causing problems with getting fully qualified for a home loan,  and the company reporting this crap doesnt even know what they are collecting on.  This is truley sad.

If they are calling about an 11 year old debt, do you think it is possible we no longer have records showing when it was paid?   Just because someone calls and claims you owe a debt, that doesn't mean you owe a debt.

This number calls everyday many times and nobody is there when I answer it; stop calling this number.
You are harrassing us......STOP, STOP!!

Same situation.  Looking for someone who gave them false information.  They are not verifying the caller's ID before loaning money.  They should get stiffed for running an incompetent loan company who doesn't verify the ID on applications for legitimacy before loaning money. They come after the wrong person for the debt. I agree that they deserve to be stiffed for being so stupid.

Receiving calls from this number also, 866-950-6357.  They say I owe an 11 year old bill to JC Penney.  We pay our bills and if there was something outstanding I would know it.  I called JC Penney repeatedly until I got a high up official, explained all of this to him and he said to ignore them.  I started to gather all of my information to prove myself when I realized it should be them proving I owe anything!  What a lesson learned here!

Try Neither a Borrower nor a Lender be.    Back to the Forum with you.

Strange how the concept of paying what you owe seems "out" of the norm now.  Render unto Caesar's what is Caesars.  If someone loans you money......and you screw-off and don't pay for 10 years....guess what...YOU STILL OWE THE MONEY!  WHAT DO YOU MEAN "CHOOSE" WHAT DEBTS YOU WILL PAY?  If you owe it pay it!  Is your word only worth something sometime and not always.

When creditors get tired of these deadbeat, leeches on our economy, and decide to cut off this wave of credit, then you guys can forget your giant plasma screen TV's and fancy new cars and "bling" and all those other things you have STOLEN by refusing to pay for.

...and people wonder why our economy sucks.  PAY YOUR BILLS AND STFU!

First these people buy old debt, debt that has been charged off for pennies of what was orginally owed.  Then they add on all these fees.  When they call you they tell you that they will give you a discount when in reality they have actually driven the debt up.  Don't be afraid or ashamed in this economy many people have to chose which debts they are going to pay.  I would avoid answering the phone.  Most of the debt they are buying is within the statue of limitations, meaning time is about to run out.  If you talk to them the clock starts over.  Also, I had a debt that was charged off during a period when my husband was unemployed (2 years).  Rather than deal with collections people I contacted my original lender and they told me to ignore the collection company as well.

Oh and no matter how many times they deny using illegal means to collect, I have recorded proof that they stated they were having me served at my work and/or my home.  Never showed up and I check the court records (city/county and district), no records founc.  So they better watchout if they try again copies go to both the state and federal attorney general.

this number call a government security employee work phone 2 x's in one day - they end up haning up on us - looking for dorri cannon - they are a scam

Got a hang up call from this number today. I don't own them or anyone money, pay all my debts.

By the way, if statute of limitations is up, and they call you don't promise to pay anything or the clock starts again. These are just bottom feeders harassing people.

Josh, you must be working for them based on your comments,  why don't contact by mail and show proof???  Anybody who would believe any person claiming they owe a bill over the phone is STUPID!!!!

if it was paid you could easily provide a proof of payment but you didn't because it's probably not paid and therefore you still get calls just pay your bills already

just because something is out of statute of limitations doesn't mean the debt isn't owed all it means is that the original issuer or the collection agency can't sue you but guess what, YOU STILL OWE THE MONEY so pay the money you owe and stfu

Junk debt buyers/collectors. Accounts are old, many out of statute. Press them for validation which they may not have, be alert to them producing documents.

My dearly departed stepfather would NEVER have used a "Cash Store"; he had no need for "payday loans." Besides, his estate was SETTLED a year and a half ago, which means anything STUPID would have turned up before now...if it were LEGIT, that is...

That's how we knew the dunning statement from "Second Round LP" out of Austin TX, phone 866-950-6357, was completely BOGUS.

Hopefully, the crooks who run this SCAM COLLECTION OUTFIT will take dear old pistol-packin' redhead mom's advice and go right straight to hell, and lose her number on the way there. I wouldn't put it past her to make that short drive to Austin TX, stand next to their Postal Box, and wait for some lard-assed desk-dweller to show up, loaded for bear.

She's a feisty one, and has little use for useless men who try to make a living off the harder-working backs of others.

Got a call from this number no response

Paid my credit card in full last month.  I'm on the do not call list.  Why are these illegal companies allowed to continue calling.  I pick up the phone and slam it down.

This number calls me all the time.  I finally answered, it was a bill collector? He was looking for a "Deanna Jones", I guess just calling all jones' in my area.  What a looser.  I'm on the do not call list, what a joke as it dosen't stop this pooftah.

They keep calling looking for someone who must have given wrong info...
guess i go back to blocking numbers again!
DO NOT CALL LIST is for the birds...never worked ,never will!
Although I sure could use the "extra money"that they claim to FINE these bastards.
They should get "STIFFED" a few more times for not verifying their info before loaning out money.

A debt collector.
