866-484-0211

Multiple calls from dialing machine for a person on longer having this number. company rude and abusive when i call to stop it.

I've gotten a call from these idiots just about every other day for the last 3-4 weeks.  I'm on the verge of calling and demanding to speak to manager after manager until I run out of expletives.  After reading some of these comments, it seems that will get me no where.  This is blatant harrassment.  They claim they are a debt collector, yet use a non-existent name (my first name + my wife's last name).  I'll be reporting these people to as many agencies as I can find online tonight.  I'll start with the Attorney General's office.

They're hitting me also.  The recording indicates that the call is for...and then nothing.  But then recording starts again and says that by not responding I've confirmed that I'm the person they're looking for.  What kind of crazy logic is that?  I'm reluctant to call the phone number that was left until I'm sure it isn't a pay-per-call line or some other kind of scam.

They were calling me 2 times a day.  I have told them I am not the person they originally asked for.  When they continued to call I told them to get fu**ed.  Now they are calling 6 times a day.  what can i do?

RED ALERT!!!!!!!!!!!!!  WARNING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!  just recently for a couple of weeks now we have been getting calls from this number asking for my husband.  i thought their was something wrong with our account but turns out that this number is not apart of our account.  this company is a scam. i think they are trying to just get some personal information to try to screw  identities.  they call 2-3 times a day.  This number is not associated with Progressive Insurance for Motor Vehicles.

my girlfriend has been getting calls from this number, too, so i decided to look a little further into the company.  it seems that the company is a true debt collector but i'm not sure how they go after people.  i even looked on the Better Business Bureau's website and found this info:  http://data.phoenix.bbb.org/commonreport.html?bid=3007179

not playing devil's advocate but it seems like they are a legit company.  hope this helps some of you.

I am getting a bunch of calls from this number as well and they keep asking me if I am someone who used to have this number.  I know it is someone previously because other friends and family of his have called as well.  

Anyhow, I have informed the people at 866-484-0211 that this man no longer has this number, and they said that they would have my number removed.  Well, you guessed it.  They are calling now two and three times a day asking for other people as well.  ?????

I simply called Cox and they set up my account to be able to block calls for $2.00 a month.  Then they told me how to block phone calls –
Pick up phone and simply press *60  
Afterwards press the # key to activate
Then enter the phone number to block.
(Up to 31 Phone Numbers are able to be blocked.)

So I believe that you will have to simply pay approx. $2.00 a month like I did.  Good luck, and God bless all of you!!!

Voicemail starts this is not a sales call. Then there is a long pause. At end of long pause an 866-484-0211 number is given to call back. The call shows up as UNKNOWN and not traceable

Recorded message - no chance to advise that they are contacting a business.  No chance to ask questions, or idicate in any way that the wrong person(s) have been called.  Have not been successful in returning phone calls to number.  Line is dropped as soon as it rings.

Do NOT engage with this scam. Ignore them and they will eventually go away.  They are like email spam.  Delete them.

These people need to be taught a lesson.  Everyone spread the word this is a SCAM!

We have ways of making u NOT call us.

STOP CALLING ME!!! I am on my way to Phoenix now to take care of you.

every time you call me I am going to post it here.

This number is for Progressive Finincal Services..not associated with the insurance company (however a nice name play to get some credibility)  Its not a scam..just a fugging collection company.  In my case its for a Sally Mae loan they bought out, and are now trying to collect.  Your screwed if you pick up and respond (since they know the number works now regardless if its your loan or not).  And if you don't answer, they just keep calling.  I suggest blocking all Unknown and numbers that are associated with them (such as this one)  Too bad T-mobile sucks and doesn't allow call blocking of unknown numbers.  Thanks also to my fukkin ex-piece-of-ass that I co-signed on this loan for.  Least I bent the bi_tch over more than a few times (literally at least heh)

This is obviously a debt collection agency of some sort. They repeatly ask for someone that I do not know personally but that is associated with someone in the distant past. My name and number is in no way affiliated with them however. The people calling are all foriegn speaking and though they claim to understand what you are telling them, cannot seem to comprehend that you want them to stop calling and remove the number from their call list. They even go so far as to call you ignorant when you get upset with them. I am tired of these calls I wish someone would make it illegal to get calls like these because they can't be deemed harrasment because they do not use curse words or make physical threats. It is still harrasment. This is my phone, at my place of business, that I pay the bill for and I have the right to say who calls especialy when they don't know who they are calling. What has the U.S. come to when the only paying jobs are held by foriegners that are incomprehensive of the English meaning of our language and should not be harrasing people to begin with. Take our country back and send the foriegners home and keep our jobs in the United states to help our economy can recover.

Hi angry man,
There is something you can do about this. You have rights under the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act so therefore there are rules to collecting a debt from you. First thing you should do is answer their call and respond politely to the accusation and if the person is rude to you inform them that you will be responding to them in a letter and that you will also be filing a complaint with the Federal Trade Commission about their behavior.Those people don't know what happened in order to put you in debt, not all people are dead beats; we are sometimes just people who are just a victim of life and life happens everyday. Don't get discouraged because, just like they fell like debtors have to answer to them; they have to answer to someone too.

I have gotten calls from this number many times a day over the past few weeks, everyday! My called ID says 800 Services. I never answered it till one night they called me at 9pm in the evening! I answered and it had a british sounding automated recording that was asking me to stay on the line, or press 1 or something, alot of odd pauses then it just hung up as I said Hello repeatedly.  I started to google about this number and I found this site. I called them back, and got a guy on the phone...I told him to stop calling...I know what your company is, Im googling your number as we speak and that I didnt appreciate them calling me at 9pm. (I stayed polite throughout)  He replied back to me, 9pm??...But your in California?? I was like...Nooo.....? (wtf) He asked me if i was sure and told me my area code I was calling from was in California. I just said no. Then he asked me if i knew a Melissa Garcia and i replied No. I think these folks are phishing for info...Im glad I just responded a simple No and didnt volunteer any more info to them. He appoligised to me and said he'd mark me down to not call me anymore. He was very nice but just a bit odd asking me about Cali.  I hope hes right!   Anything else happens I'll post it here....Thanks all and beware!

They call every other day for the last several months. The first thing they ask when they pick up is for your social security number. If you say no, they hang up on you. I called back and said I had a question. She said okay. I asked if they would like to have a harassment charge filed on them, as well as shut down their scamming business. She asked for the number I was calling about and said she would take me off the list. (Collectors do not ask for social security numbers, nor do they take you off a "call list"). We'll see if they continue to harrass me. My guess is yes. They are looking for victims...don't be one.

They also call from 800-761-7045

I answered and actually spoke with a couple people. I settled my debt with them. Now they are calling and sending letters for the remainder of the amount, after we settled on a lesser amount. Damned if you do and damned if you don't.

Crap like this makes people go postal.
