this is canada credit collections...they will leave automatic messages...their people hang up on you...very rude and persistant...but I will win!

I'll join you in your crusade, "notyet"!!
I've been getting calls/voicemails from this number (and another one), at least twice a day for the last 3 months! $%^&**(@

I have paid my outstanding bill and asked them to fax proof of payment and the said that they would right away. Obviously they did not. Subsequent calls have gotten me nowhere; my bank needs this to renew my mortgage. DO NOT trust what they say! After they get thier money, you are just a pest to them and they will not help you out.

This company's name is Collect Sense. They have a polite employee by the name of Jean-Marie Ntawira. His extension number is 318. They made a wrong number trying to collect money from Royal LePage. It's a company that does'nt pay their bills so we had fun over the phone.

Looks like they are after me, too.. Get in line collection guys!

For anyone looking for info on how best to deal with these collection turds, have a look at this site: http://www.canadian-money-advisor.ca  It's run by a fellow named Monty Loree, and offers quite a bit of information to the average Joe at no cost - the site also has Forums, Blogs and more..

This company is Canadian Bureau of Credit and Collections.  They are nice if they think they are going to get something out of you, then you are vapour to them.  They work on comission and that is why they are so rude.  They were extrememly rude to my receptionist (yes they have been calling my work) and they were told NOT to call by myself, my receptionist and my boss (VP of company), yet they continue.  I've gotten my lawyer involved and they have backed off a little.  They are incredibly rude and you will get nowhere with them.  Do not trust them or what they say.

Interesting that two different companies are sharing the same phone number.  I've determined that the crew after me are in fact Collectcents.

In a follow-up VM the "Rep" has indicated that he's working on behalf on CBC.  Perhaps I was mistaken, or perhaps my account was either passed up/down between departments?

so are they legit or another scam? i have been ignoring their calls/voicemails...

Probably as "legit" as any other Debt Collection outfit.  Don't feel that I can vouch for their tactics as I don't recall speaking with any of their agents.  Also, I've had so many VM's left by many agencies that it's hard to remember who's who any more.

It was a recorded message on the machine, for a person with the same last name as us, but the first name didn't match anyone we know. Didn't say that it was a collection agency, but sounded like one-they said that they have been contacting this person for weeks and have never received a reply. Which is weird, since they haven't been calling this number ever, so who knows what their deal is?

If you have an o/s Telus bill - call this guy - Am at ext 308 - he was super nice (as a collector can be i guess) - got me a discount and explained how credit works - only works on telus accounts though.

i know that guy he did get me a good deal as well on my telus account - i asked for him at ext 308

A Fitness club is trying to take $800 bucks from me, saying that I signed a perpetual contract. I canceled it and even asked for money back, but they lost me letters and they have sent my account to this agency.

You are a idiot collector!  I hope you lose your job like many americans and cant pay your freaking bills!  Then perhaps you may have some compassion for the people you are calling!  YOU are the low life A$$!  What's wrong can't get a real job?

oh im sorry that you dont pay your bills dont get a cell phone then if you cant pay your bills and your talking about i cant get a real job, my job pays 3000 every 2 weeks, and i only work 4 days. Im a police officer for metro police and this job takes care of all my vacation money. Another note to all you debtors out there , please dont calls us saying that its harrasment and your going to call the police. Collection calls have a purpose so its not harrassment,also its a civil matter so you would have to go to courts to dispute it, if i was working and someone called me and they wanted to file an harrasment complaint i would laugh in your face, there is no reccision if there was there tim hortons mcdonalds and factories all over north america wouldnt be hiring get off your lazy welfare [***] and get a job

Sorry collector but you really do not know the law. And if you are a police officer than I am the Prime Minister. All police officers I know are able to spell and write proper English. And as far as people paying their bills, if we all could then you would be out of a job to pay for those vacations.

You are such a liar!!!! if you were a cop as you stated, then you would NOT have posted the remarks you have, as you would know full well you can be traced and you can be sued for all you are worth (which in my eyes is nothing)

They left a recorded announcement on my machine saying it was "an urgent message for," and some unintelligible name that didn't sound like anyone living here. We don't owe anybody anything and I'm entering the number into my call block service.

A guy from this number named William ext. 400 is very rude and unprofessional.
