West Asset Mgmt-What debtors think and how you should deal with them

Welcome to the community Mr. Morrow

JCEMT...you might want to edit his address and phone off of hsi post.

All of the sudden, my parents are starting to get calls, all asking for me.

Funny thing is, I have not lived at that address for 4 years now.

Then to be getting calls, just out of the blue?

Very strange, indeed.

I was scammed before, by another company, stating I owed $100 for an internet service I have never even ordred (once again, delivered to my parent's house last year).

I simply wrote a very calm, professional letter of dispute asking to be advised on what the charge was for, when the order was placed, and with whom before I would settle.

Never heard another word back.

If it is a medical debt, call: 1-877-411-7197
If the debt is legit, ask for a settlment, you can get a discount if you pay a lump sum. And YES, postdated checks are legal.

West is a miserable, sleazy company in a sleazy business, but we hold Qwest responsible for hiring them. Someone stole my wife's SSN, set up an account in another city, and ran up about $1k in bills. West found our real home number and started harrassing us 6 weeks ago. We're finally getting some results by threatening Qwest with a small-claims lawsuit. It's not an idle threat. If we get one more call, we will take them to court. Hard to imagine that this won't cost them more than they could hope to recover through West. Qwest has been irresponsible and incompetent every step of the way.
Hold the really responsible party accountable.

Did you report this as ID Theft? File a police report, fill out the FTC IDT affadavit and sent that info to Qwest and all 3 CRA's?

I just had the same problem with another one of these collection agencies. I got my # thru Verizon in 03/2008. I immediately started getting these calls for someone that I don't know. I told them this and they said they wouuld not call anymore. This happened for 7 months, sometimes 3-4 times a week. In 09/08 I called and was hung up 3X. I called Verizon and spoke with a Dept called the illegal call department. they put me on hold and called these bottom feeders and spoke with them....I don't know what they said but I haven't heard from the leaches in a few weeks.....

i have been getting calls from west asset management for over a month now...they call...i answer...they hang up...i called back...advised them that what they are doing is harassment and is illegal...they confirmed they had caller ID...they confirmed they had my number...and then hung up...

1-443-550-7974 Which is in Baltimore-Annapolis area code

I've been getting calls from them for a while now, looking for someone with a different First name but same last name. Not sure if they just picked my number out of the phone book or if someone used my number when giving details for a loan.

Anyway, I've asked them several times not to call to no avail. Really dont want to go down the legal route so I found an alternative. My phone provider (Lingo) includes advanced call routing. I can specify which callers are re-directed to another number I specify. So I put their number on the list and redirect it to another one of their callback numbers. Now they can waste their time talking to each other.

Next time they call you tell them the party they are calling DIED in a train wreck or something off the wall

Their computer kept calling me for someone I don't know. When I pressed 3, "That person is unavailable," the computer gave me this callback number: 800-929-4093. I called it and demanded that they stop calling me. They said they'd remove my number. We'll see.
