I believe it is a bill collector that has its main base in south dakota I think its a credit card

This is a credit collection company.

KEEPS CALLING WHAT A PAIN

Guessing it's a new number for portfolio recovery - they have lots of numbers.

This company keeps calling me between the hours of 10pm and midnight daily. They are rude and will tell you it is not the time you say it is when they call. These people are total idiots.

Called twice so far saying we owe $600 to MasterCard.  We won't give info because it may be a scam.

I just got a call from this number, put block on my phone number and called back. Their recording states it's Portfolio Recovery Associates. If I don't recognize a number, I won't answer and they don't leave messages.

Junk call. Kill these jerks!

Wow, I don't owe anyone anything, and these people have been calling me day in and out for years.

I just thought about reporting them to the BBB....but loe and behold, the BBB gives them an A+ rating!! Really????  I guess I always new the BBB was a scam too.

The public can easily destroy their cost/benefit ratio by driving up their costs and giving no benefit.

Don't ignore/block them. These folks want you to ignore them for as long as you can stand to or until you give them something valuable like money or information. Ignoring them is being their good customer. Be their bad customer. Make them talk to you fruitlessly for as long as they can stand to or until they stop calling you.

These bottom feeders cannot spend seconds much less minutes on the phone with every person who will never send them a dime. But they don't know who that is. You do. That knowledge is power. Every second you can keep an operator on the phone unprofitably will teach them to never call you again. Answer when convenient. Call back. Give no information. Verify nothing. Ask as many questions as you can. Answer none.

I like to ask general questions they should but usually won't answer. "May I have the name and address of your agent for service of process?" Calmly and slowly ask them to spell every word in the address. Control the pace. If they speak quickly then politely ask them to slowly repeat. "Are you a corporation and if so in which state are you incorporated?" Repeat your questions when you don't get direct answers. When they won't answer a question ask, "Would you like to comply with the business and professions codes of your state?" That is usually the point when they hang up on me but if they say they want to comply then begin your questions again.

Repeat while you have the spare time. These folks have many victims and few operators. If everyone calls back but pays nothing the mass auto-dialer business model becomes unprofitable. Don't aide and comfort the enemy by ignoring them. Call! Have a nice long slow friendly chat!

Press 2 for Spanish.

You are entitled to call and request general information as many times as it takes to get it and you may perpetually request the information they refuse to give. Sound familiar? Continue until they stop soliciting you.

For any business, people who consume resources but don't pay (or otherwise add value) become an undesirable customer. Most businesses will stop soliciting an undesirable customer. Those that don't stop remain knowingly vulnerable to the actions of their undesirable customers. Few companies can afford to let everyone take a piece of them whenever they want endlessly. For instance they must pay to answer everyone's telephone calls which can be placed at our convenience for the joy of it. Call and consume their operator time without paying or giving information. Be a bad customer. The worst customer. Inspire them to invoke their right to refuse you service by not soliciting you.

There are certainly enough victims with unlimited long distance to take down this company so ignoring/blocking just seems downright Orwellian to me. Really? We're just going to passively submit and go with a block list or however we manage ignoring an endless stream of unwanted phone calls year after year? Hell no! Answer/return every call and become well practiced at keeping these folks on the phone or count yourself not amongst the free.

Never leaves a mssg. Just keeps calling!!  Does not identify self, company or reason for call.

If you want a call back, leave a message regarding who you are; who you represent, reason for your call.  I am registered with  National Do Not Call.  Keep it up, and I will pursue litigation to stop the harassment.

Portfolio Recovery -collecting on a HSBC debt - Regardless how many times you have explained your situation with them, they will continue to play the Hell Hound...

Good call! Well put!

Bravo I love it take back control I will do this and keep doing it

I will be glad to answer the next time they call now that I know who these [***] are.  That is because I will tell them I retained a bankruptcy attorney and give them the name then they are to not bother me any more.  Wish me luck!

They called asking for someone named Sharon.  My name is not Sharon.  I told her so and then the woman began to argue with me.  I'm 57 and I know my freakin' name.  It isn't Sharong

Give them a number from this site pleasestopcalling.me for being rude and not listening. Might as well waste their time like they waste yours.

Just got home 5:53pm the first call i got from them was @ 2:45pm so @ 3:00 i started calling them i spent an hour 45 calling them "just to talk" it feels good . they are calling me for a debt from 1997 that i know nothing about i didnt get my first credit card till 2003 so, i will be calling them everyday tilll they stop answering the phone knowing my name

this is going to be my new phone hobby
