When ever you get these harrassing calls and it just keeps happening... get yourself a K7.net voicemail and give this to them as your only contact#. k7.net

So, I told the collector that they were calling my cell phone and they said since that was the only number they had for me, they could continue to call it. I told them that I get charged everytime they call but they don't seem to care. I told them to correspond by mail but they won't listen. What do I do? I know I need to send one of those letters but I can't find one that sounds decent. I'm not going to work with any collection agency on this one. Earthlink is trying to &*&(&* me and they have to fix the bill before they get any money. So, what do I do?

Thank you!

We recently had our phone number changed and started receiving calls from (651) 204-1341 about five to six times a day. I tried to be nice when I called the collection department at IC Systems, but the representative pretty much gave me the run-around and claimed that our number was not listed in their files and that they would need a name to search (but good thing I had read this forum beforehand and was not smart enough to provide them with a name). Finally, I decided to call the number provided by Goodooer (posted Jul.31.2006) and it seems that did the trick. So to everyone else out there having the same problem with this:

Call: (88 229-8848 extention 2247 and ask for Tom. Say you're not a debtor and ask for them to stop calling. They claim they will list it as a bad number and will not call again effective in 24 hours. Alternatively, you could also try (88 474-8332


I.C. System, 444 Highway 96 East
St. Paul, MN 55127-2557

ahh, the mighty wonders of the internet. thank you guys so much for this blog/forum! it's been quite helpful. without this i would not even have been able to link the (651) 204-1341 number to IC Systems.

To answer what is k7.net, its a company out of the Seattle Washington area that centralizes all your VM, emails and faxes to one location, they call it unified messaging. It is a program that works off your PC. sounds like a site that might phish for information, not sure but I also don't know if I would want ALL my messages downloaded to my computer. My answer to bill collectors is to just ignore the calls until i am ready to deal with them.

You are going to have to prove that it cost you money for an inbound call to your cell phone. Especialy since that is your only contact number and almost every cell phone company has free inbound calling.

You need to send in a letter of dispute and any proof on why you feel you do not owe the amount listed on the debt. Be detailed in your dispute letter explain exactly why you don't owe this debt or the amount. Because they are going to be going over you bill details.

******

7:55 and not 8? A 5 minute difference is not a great deal. Filing a complaint will bring it down to who's clock is correct or not. I mean you can but I bet they can get that one dismissed easily.


***

collection agencies usualy have a signed contactact with your creditors. 8 times out of ten they get paid if you pay the creditor or not. Paying them, if you haven't paid the balance in full with the creditors, usualy gets the calls to stop if you work out something agreeable with them for the both of you.

It really isn't sticking it to them if they get paid no matter who you pay.

Hi I also recieve calls from this number, and recently found out through additional research that this is because of money i owe to ebay. Do you think that ebay will take action if I keep avoiding these people or write them a letter saying to quit calling?

Earlier one of you said the above. In my experience, it isn't so. I receive phone calls 6 days a week from a CA for the people who used to have my phone number. I have the phone number unlisted. I have told them over and over that I am not "Bob Smith", do not know him, am not related to him, and have nothing to do with his debt. They tell me I am lying and they will take me and my wife, "Mrs. Smith", to court. I wrote them a number of letters, also the Attorney General, the Governor, and filed a claim against them with the FTC as they revealed this couples name to me and the fact that they owe a debt, as well as harrassing my family members. They still call. They don't belong to the BBB ! It seems nothing will stop them. I don't want to have to change my number as I have had it for two years and it's a hassle to notify all the people who need to call me. The FTC answered me and said they do not intervene ! I read that as " F U ! ".
Now I just look at the caller ID and don't pick up. Let them waste their money when they should be spending it looking for the Smiths.

i'll probably never check this forum again just having fun reading it...but if you want to get rid of CA calling your cel phone just make it so it auto forwards to there own number or a weight loss company or something else everytime you skip the call. just remember to answer the phone when your friends call. After a day or two of this they will get over calling you...works like charm.

We had also received many calls from this number. Finally after returning the call about the 5th time, they anwered. They were seriously rude, but said they will remove our number since we do not owe anyone. Time will tell.

I keep getting calls from 651-204-1341 but when I do answer I am always told by computer that there is high call volume and I am put on hold then cut off. If it was a collection agency if no one answers they would leave a message and not be afraid to tell you who they are.
