I average about 4 calls a day
from them up until midnight. I've called the number on the called ID
back and spoken with a "manager" named Eric Gustafson who said he would
remove my name/number each time but it might take a day or two.
Well it's been about 4 wks and still getting calls. After the last call
this evening, I called them back and informed Eric that if this does not
stop immediately, I will be filing a harrasment charge. He said go
ahead and have a nice evening and hung up.
So, now that I'm pissed, I called the loacl police and they called him
on my behalf. Turns out they're a collection agency (surprise,
surprise) and the officer gave them a verbal warning. Cop told me to
call him back tomorrow if I receive just one more call and they will
turn the case over to a detective and file harassment charges.
Such a waste on tax payer's money....but atleast I've never wasted it
before and I'm getting my money's worth now after all those taxes! :)
So if you guys want to annoy BCR - call Eric Gustafson or Chris @
(619)374-0126 or -0127 and annoy away!!!

I used to work at BCR, sounds
like they've managed to screw things up worse than they were. Part of
the predictive dialing happpiness involves a two part call system which
uses a call center in India to 'establish the right party contact' and
then switches to the collectors after the line is picked up. They also
pride themselves on being one of the largest employers of the blind in
the state - they sit on computers all day playing solitaire. They
couldn't hang on to management staff to save their lives so most of
their floor supervisors and team leaders are snotnose kids that have
managed to stick it out for longer than six months. Most of their
collectors use aliases - my favorite was the young man with a heavy
Hispanic accent who called himself 'Bill Tyson.' There's no training
there at all, and since they hire anything off the street that's willing
to give it a whirl, the
fdcpa means nothing to them.

Well, after that police call
they stopped calling.........until just now. Picked up and said hello 3
times but nobody on the other end. Guess I'll just call the police back
and waste taxpayer's dollars :(
So Deb - what would be your suggestion to get them to stop calling?
FYI, i moved into the area in July an obviously picked up someone's old
# that owed them money cause I've never heard of the person that they're
looking for.

I have had the same issue
recently where BCR continues to call my home even though I am not the
debtor on the account. I have received phone calls repeatedly
throughout the day, every day. (9/2-9/7 so far) I contact them each
day, tell them the same thing, remove my number , the person is not at
this number. I talked to a supervisor today and after reading this
thread, I think I am sure I was told a lie. She said the woman yesterday
failed to remove the right number. That being said, I am filing a
complaint with the FTC. I suspect that these idiots will continue to
call my home.
BTW - SICK OF BCR - BCR is in blatant violation of the fdcpa if they
call your home after 9 pm in your time zone. It is also a violation that
they continue to call your home, even though your are not the party for
which they are looking. You should file a complaint with the FTC.
On another note: Go figure that those moron's hired some folks from
India, I know that for most of them English is probably not even their
5th language.
My last words: After reading this post if any of the wonderful
"Collectors" that want to tell me I am in the wrong, that they can
continue to call, go right ahead. Just wait until you are on the other
end of a bunch of idiots calling you :D

Those freakin people from
"BCR" keep calling my house looking for my neighbor upstairs!, I keep
telling them that he does not live here and that he lives upstairs, they
ask for his number, i decline to give it to them. I ask them to stop
calling me and that they have the wrong apartment but they continue to
call every single day around noon. I am on a "do not call" list and
have reported them and they still continue to
call.

Iborrowed $200.00 from you you
have collected this and then some please do not call my job or home
again I have e-mailed you with no response so you do not want to get
paid. BBB have been notified and best believe being a Deputy Sheriff

On the other hand, CM, some
people may have a good reason to not pay the company who says they owe.
Such as not receiving the services contracted for, which is what
happened in my case. ATT wireless sold to Cingular, and my service went
down the tubes. I was lied to multiple times by Cingular reps, as my
service got worse and worse. They told me that I should upgrade to a
newer service, which of course required another 2 year contract. That
was NOT going to happen, based on the shoddy service and treatment I got
from Cingular. Once my service got so bad it was essentially an
non-usable phone, I called Cingular and told them that I would no longer
be paying. I disputed the bill in writing as well. Got my first BCR
call today, but wasn't home when they called. At least they left a
return number and extension.
