631-941-3300

I have been receiving many unknown caller calls recently.  The person calling does not leave a message.  I do not answer calls that are unknown.  I put a message on my machine to the effect that if you have an blocked number, please unblock it or leave a message.  after several calls a male voice identifying himself as being from Benjamin & Williams Credit Investigators.  He left a message "this message is for the owner or credit manager to return his call.  I had not heard of them before and had no knowledge of the kind of business they were in (e. g. some kind of investigations, credit services, bill collection).  The call number given was
Thank all of you for blogging here.  After reading your comments, I realize I do not need to waste time or bother calling back. It seems to be an unscupulous solicitor.

Received a voice mail at my business number on Oct. 18. Said it was Benjamin and Williams calling, asking to speak to credit manager or owner. Since all my business accounts are in fantastic shape, figure this is a poorly disguised attempt to sell debt collection services. Did not return call to 631-941-3300. Believe they are allowed to call businesses, as businesses are not protected by the Do Not Call law.

Companies prospect other companies to obtain new clients. Companies who have clients produce jobs for the economy, which benefits our country,  and if they provide  a service that people want or need, they continue in business because they provide a service that companies use and find beneficial. If you own a business, you receive phone calls from other businesses, either to talk to you about buying from you, or to sell you goods or services, this is why businesses have phone service, to give or receive business. Those are the 2 reasons your phone rings. You can not have a business and expect people to only call you to place orders with you, sometimes it will ring and people will try to sell you things.  This is part of our capitalist system. If your not interested, you don`t purchase anything. If you own a business, you can not realistically complain about being prospected. Doing business benefits all involved.

looks like a telemarketing call because when you call back the autoattendant lists what they do and invite you to list debts with them, ostensibly so you can authorize them to collect on them. i will not waste any time with these guys

A man left a message from 631-941-3300 on October 10, 2010 at 11:49 AM, "investigating my office legal status". I didn't call him back. Really fast talk I only understood "from..... and Williams"

Several weeks in a raw this company was leaving messages on my business phone. Person who called didn't say his name or reason for the call just that it's a collection agency. Of cause it got my attention and when I called back, receptionist explained me it was soliciting calls looking for a new clients who need to collect debt from other people. When I suggested  to her at least to leave the calling person name and matter for the call, she called me a lunatic and hang up on me. Do you really want to have business with people like this?

You can go to the National Do Not Call Registry website & file a complaint on this company.

They left a message saying they needed to speak the owner or credit manager of my company.

Received a call at 9:20 am on my business line. We do not answer "out of area" or "unknown" calls. They left a message (on our machine) for our A/R department. They are a debt collection agency. They wanted to know if we had outstanding debts that they could collect for us and left their phone #.
They said to call back and talk to Lucia.
---Not!!!---

Same thing happened to me

So lets get this straight they got you paid on small accounts but didn't get you paid on a larger account? Your comment makes no business sense. Maybe your account was not collectible in the first place.

received a call from this company asking to speak to the owner or credit manager.  This is a residence and I do not own a business nor do I owe anyone any $$.   Didn't call back!

Got a message on our business line a few days ago. Could not hear clearly about who was calling. just " .......investigator and would like to talk to the owner or credit manager.....631-941-3300....."
Thanks all of you above.  I do not think I want to waste any time to call them back!

I own a small business and I have some account recievables that are not paying up. I recieved a call from this company.. They sound nice and I like that they are local and in the state I live in. I'm reluctant to use them because of this forum. Has any qualified business owner have any experience with this company as far as collecting on money that is owed to you?

Looks like that national do not call list isn't doing it's job. It's probably just a front and they sell your number to telemarketers. It wouldn't surprise me a bit!

the king of harassing robocalls - this needs to be made illegal if it isn't already. Enough is enough.

You block one of their phone numbers and a week later they hit you from another phone number. Do they really think I am ever going to use their services? Heck No.
