Right now, I am averaging 9 calls a day from various collectors.
My old car loan company is still calling me after I have voluntarily given the car back.
What do they want?
I have nothing! NOTHING! NADA!
Stop calling me! I have so many other things to worry about in my life like finding a job!
It’s so annoying because they leave messages with automated attendants and fill up my message box.
What I normally do when the phone rings is look at the incoming 800 number, then quickly go to Google and type in the number. This has been a blessing because there are a few sites that have a big community of people listing their experiences with these “800″ numbers.
They’ll list the exact number and start a topic underneath it. Then, if they actually answered the phonecall and had a conversation, they’ll detail their experience and list the collection company AND person they spoke with.
This is great news for people with collection accounts!
If you are getting calls too and don’t know who it is that is calling you, remember, first Google the number, or go here and enter a “mysterious number” that you feel is from a collection company- http://800notes.com/
