Illegal Collection Outfit
Posted on 02-22-2007 by annarvta (1 Reviews)

Allied Interstate is a well known for unscrupulous collections business. We have no accounts anywhere as our religious beliefs forbid us to have credit. So there is no way we could be on their radar. Wehn informed they have a mistake, their callers utter profanities, including the ubiquitous "F you". I did some checking and discovered many people, including other lawyers have complained to the police, the Business Bureau, the courts, to the attorney general of almost every state, and we find they are rated the most unscrupulous business - and their collection service is NOT a LEGAL ONE. They are scamsters who get phone lists and use harassment techniques to get people to send them money on bogus claims. What's up Dallas, why do you allow these people to do business from your town. KICK THEM OUT!

* Pros:
* Cons: cited for illegal business practices
* Overall user rating: Not Recommended

I get calls from Intellirisk every single day, starting at 8:30 a.m. sharp. They claim they are with Allied Interstate and how do I propose to settle my debt with Citifinancial ?. I tell them every day that I was disabled about 3 years ago and I am not able to work. Well then how do you eat ?, how do you pay your other bills ?. I tell them that my wife gets a small disability check and that's all we live on. I am then told that I am a thief, because I bought things and are not paying for them !, so that makes me a thief. I am told that I could get a job talking on a phone, since that is what I'm doing talking to them ?. Then they tell me that they will call me every day until this debt is paid. They say by " law " they can call me every single day as long as I owe this debt ?. Can I get them for making false accusations or defamation of character, or mental deress ?. I also suffer from severe depression and bi-polar. Just curious ?.

I received my first call from Allied Interstate Yesterday. At first I thought that someone was trying to "Phish" me for my SSN and credit card information. The representative never stated who he worked for and said that the bill was for a Verizon account from 5 years ago. Since this is the first time I have ever heard of this debt existing I asked for the Rep to send me something in writing regarding the account and I promptly called Verizon.

Verizon ran my SSN, First Name, Last Name, Middle Initial, previous addresses and telephone numbers and informed me that although their billing systems go back 10 years and that all accounts that are sent to 3rd party collectors are still stored in their system. There was no record of any delinquent account in my name.

I called AI and spoke to a very polite representative who gave me all of the details that they had on the account which I have documented. If for any reason it becomes apparent that I do owe this debt and it has some how gone over looked and misplaced by Verizon's internal billing system, then I have ever intention on paying.

However, after googling AI I am completely shocked by the amount of claims against this company. I previously worked for a large "Creditors Rights" law firm and I am very familiar with the fdcpa.

Where I worked, any of the described behaviors that some of you have experienced would have resulted in the IMMEDIATE termination of the offending party. Also, as has been mentioned several times before in this thread, send certified cease & desist letters and /or disputes. Even legitimate collections agencies can make mistakes and I have personally witnessed cases where the firm I worked for had to pay the "collectee" $1,000 per call made or letter sent after receiving a cease & desist letter and in every case the calls were made or letters were sent, due to human error such as not properly flagging a file as "DO NOT CALL" or a call was placed because a collector did not properly review the file prior to initiating the call.

I am shocked that AI has continued to stay in business. I'll keep you posted on how things develop with my circumstances.

Also, in my experiences, Threatening & cursing is strictly prohibited by the FDCPA. A collector can not threaten to sue you unless they are actually in preparation of doing so. Record your conversations and notify the collector that you are doing so.

Good Luck, and if you owe it, try to pay it, but do not subject yourself to this kind of mistreatment in the process.

These people were looking for my husband, but they called him by his first initial and middle name and did not use his last name. Very odd. She would not say why she was calling but did identify her company. I immediately googled them and found this site. It has given me lots of information and ammo for dealing with them. Thanks for having this site.

I have been getting calls from them for the last week about a debt. I am not sure if the debt is valid and they told me that I had no right to receive a written bill from them. They demanded my checking/credit card account number and said that I HAD to give it to them or they would continue to call. They said that they will only accept payments in one lump sum and that any small payments would be sent back. I kept saying that I would not give my information over the phone and that I wanted a written bill. I finally hung up when they started getting rude and yelling at me. They have continued to call 6 or 7 times a day between 8 am and 8 pm. work on overnights from 10pm to 7 am and they are preventing me from getting sleep.

Are there any federal of Illinois state laws that they are violating by doing and saying these things?

I told them my son was in Iraq and they returned his collection back to the original debter. I then paid Nextel the amount owed. I just couldn't swallow paying Allied anything!

So I've read most of the thread and do know now the nature of this comany.

So here's my situation.
I keep getting phone calls from them on my cell phone every day but never a person. If I pick up the phone it will either hang up or play the automated message stating "we are calling from allied interstate in reference to a debt, any information obtained to be that purpose. Please call 1-888-808-5092 and representative will assist you"

I have not called them back, written a letter of C&D or contacted BBB, FTC or Attorny General's Office.

I do not have any debt ever in my life.

So my question is, is there still a chance for them to ruin my credit?

Would it be better idea to call them back and talk to them even the result is more than likely what everybody in this forum has experienced?

Will it be safe to give out information such as my full name and address? (of course ssn and bank information, i will not give on the phone)

Thanks in advance.

I sent off a cease and desist letter for them to stop calling me and I also sent a letter for them to validate. The phone calls have stopped, but they have not validated yet. If they send me a letter asking to pay, I am filing suit against them for not validating and for trying to collect without validating. I have all the proof and signatures that I need from them. These people need to be put out of business.

I am going to send Allied Interstate a bill. I provided them with a service (answered a question for them)(actually several). They want me to pay a bill for somebody I never heard of untill they started calling me. Since I am not providing them with contact information on the person they want (I don't know him) they say I am "guilty" and obligated to pay. They are going to "put me in jail", "take my car" and/or "do whatever it takes to get this money". They have called me well over 150 times in the last 2 years...as many as 15 times in just over an hour! After they threatened me a number of months ago, I told them exactly where I was, where my car was and asked if they had their insurance paid up and a spot picked out. I did not hear from them for almost 5 months after that...now they are calling again! DOES ANYBODY HAVE THEIR ADDRESS?????

Allied Interstate has many addresses. Find the nearest one to your place and send a C&D letter. Go to this link and get their contact info.

http://www.debtconsolidationcare.com...about2486.html

Send the letter through certified mail and return receipt requested. They must legally stop all calls after receiving your letter. If they continue, record their phone calls. Check your state laws to confirm if the recording can be done secretly or not. Thus, you will have proof of their violations and sue them.

Allied Interstate has been calling me at my home for the last two to three weeks attempting to verify wrong information. They claim to be calling on behalf of a credit card company with which I do have an account, and try to get me to "verify" my personal info (i.e. social, DOB, Address, etc). Of course I disclosed nothing at all, instead asking them to verify the info THEY have on file. All the info was completely wrong. Initially, I did not know they were a CA; all they said was they were calling on behalf of my CC Company to "update information". Once I did some research and discovered they have been sued before, it made sense what they were trying to do. Sure, call me to "verify info" and se if I was ignorant enough to correct the info they had. Right! I threatened to suit them if they called again. They said it would take them approximately 48 hours to remove me from their system. The last conversation with them took place on Tuesday April 17, 2007 at approximately 10:45am PT. I will give them until April 20, 2007 to stop calling. If I receive any other calls from them there forward, I will consult a lawyer.
