Accounts Receivable Management

did not answer. repeatedly. never leaves message.

They called 4 times in a day and when I picked up the other line is silent. When I didn't pick up, they would keep calling.

Accounts Receivable Management, they call constantly. Usually no one on the line when picked up or it's a recording.

They call every morning and every evening.  I did answer once, but no one on the line; now I just DON'T answer.

called my cell phone. no message. errr.

The call constantly and leave their number, but never answer when I call back? Who are these people?!?!

i answered a call from this number and a guy on the other end asked for "Ter" or "Tare", i said the had a wrong number, and then they asked "You don't know Ter Korea?" or something along those lines.

Rep name is Bobby Taylor-female- very annoying voice trying to collect on some persons debt that I don't know.

I too am getting numerous call from this number. No message and silence when I do answer. Any thoughts on how to block this number? I've been on the "Do Not Call" list for sometime and apparently that doesn't work.

Portfolio Recovery Associates is NOT a reputable collection agency. They are a junk debt buyer and purchase old debts from companies for pennies on the dollar and are now trying to collect on it.

I don't know if anyone has defaulted on a debt, but do NOT pay them a dime, until you check the SOL (Statue of Limitations) for the enforcement of collection of debts in your State:

If the SOL has expired and you send them a token payment, this enables them to reage the debt and "restart the clock", DON'T DO IT! And, STAY OFF THE PHONE!

Send them this "drop dead" letter VIA certified mail and request a return receipt:

RE: [insert account number or name of account or name of debt]:

Dear [insert collector's name or company name],

This letter is in response to your [letter dated xx-xx-2005] (copy enclosed) or [phone call on xx-xx-2005], concerning the collection of the above referenced [account or date].

I do not believe I owe what you say I owe therefore I dispute this debt. I am well aware of my rights under the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act (FDCPA) and my state laws so I hope to save both of us a great deal of time by letting you know that not only do I dispute the validity of this debt, I have also checked with my State Attorney General and verified that the Statute of Limitations for enforcing this type of debt through the courts in (insert your state or the state in which the contract was signed) has expired. Therefore, should you decide to pursue this matter in court I intend to inform the court of my dispute of this debt and that the "statute of limitations" has expired.

This letter is your formal notification that I consider this matter closed and demand that you, or anyone affiliated with your company, stop contacting me regarding this or any other matter except to advise me that your debt collection efforts are being terminated or that you or the creditor are taking specific actions allowed by the FDCPA or my state laws.

Be advised that I consider any contact not in accordance with the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act a serious violation of the law and will immediately report any violations to my State Attorney General, to the Federal Trade Commission and, if necessary, take whatever legal action is necessary to protect myself. Be advised that I tape record all phone calls and violations of the FDCPA can result in you or your company being personally fined up to $1,000 per incident.

Keep getting automated calls (but no messages) from them (866-932-6829) though they have no legitimate (or illegitimate for-that-matter) business with me. Do-not-call registries can take 6-8 weeks to take effect (assuming they're complying). Called Verizon Wireless and they blocked for 90 days, subject to renew block at expiry if it recurs. Take that bogus callers!

This is the 3rd # that has called from Accts Receivable.  Once again, the # will go into my cell phone and have the ringer as MUTE so I don't hear it ring.
