I have received numerous calls with an automated voice (they usually call on weekends) from "Allied" at 800-342-8576 telling me I am to contact "James Taylor." I have left messages for this person (when I can get through which is rare) & get no return phone call from him, only repeated automated calls informing me I need to call about a debt (and I am current with all of my creditors). Should I write a cease & desist letter to them since I can never talk to a living human being?
Have you received anything in writing? I suggest that, rather

I suggest that, rather than a cease and desist letter, you might send them a debt validation letter.
Thanks for the advice. We've never received anything in writing
Thanks for the advice. We've never received anything in writing ... just call after call after call. It's our practice to never answer 800 calls b/c they are usually someone trying to elicit business (even tho we are on the national do not call registry, they still call all the time). But this number calls sometimes 3 or 4 times a day. In my business practice, I have clients frequently who are turned over to collections for unpaid medical expenses and they always receive notice in writing before further action is taken.
