Well the proper place to post this would have been the thread at that number which you could have easily found by putting it into the search box.  In any case, the information I posted is still relevant to your situation.  You need to file a complaint with your State Attorney General's Office and go to the link at the CFPB that I previously provided.  Without knowing the collection agency name, that is the best we can do for you, and even knowing it, I will not post any more information in this thread, but will provide what I can in the proper thread.

I am continuously receiving calls from this number for my ex-husband. I am no longer married or in contact with this person and I do not wish to be harassed from debt collectors for his whereabouts or number. I would appreciate them removing my number from their call listing.

All you have to do is be very persistant & repeatedly ask them 1- their full name, 2- the number they are calling from, 3- if this number is their direct line or is their an extension, 4- the Name of their company, 5- their mailing address, & when or if they ask why you want or need this information , then tell them that you must have this information for your legal department, and to file a complaint to the FTC & the FCC. IF AT ANYTIME THEY BEGIN TO ARGUE OR AS USUAL CUSS -HANG UP....... BUT MORE THAN LIKELY THEY WILL CUSS & HANG UP.......LOL!

They left voice mail with a request for Steve P to listen to message, if no Steve P do not listen to message.  Bottom Feeders.
they call late at night.

Our business receives 4-5 calls per day from this number. I use a virtual pbx service that allows me to block calls and I've had them blocked for about 4 months and, according to our calls report, they still keep calling daily. I decided to use a conditional call rule to forward their calls right back to them. Does anyone know if that will get me in hot water? I've also considered forwarding their calls directly to the FCC.

The Do Not Call Registry is NOT a farce.  You don't know what you're talking about. If a company from overseas calls you, they don't care about our laws.  Reputable companies will not call or take you off their list. Sometimes though, sleezy companies will continue. The Do Not Call Registry is a valuable resource but does not stop everyone on the planet.  Try using that thing you may have heard of called GOOGLE and go to the registry and READ.   "Normal business hours" have NO affect for the fly-by-night scam companies overseas.    ALSO, and I don't even know why I'm wasting my time when you have done nothing on your own ---  but companies that you are doing business with, or have done business with may call you, AND charitable organizations and political parties in the US are allowed to call.

If you do so, and damage someones hearing you can be prosecuted. Isn't that interesting how it works. We can't do jack about them but if we use a whistle and it damages the harassers hearing we get prosecuted!

Hi y'all!  Thanks for the posts as they call me like 2 or 3 times a day; stop a few then strike up the band!  They called me on my home phone on Sunday evenin'. Did anyone go online and look up Penn Credit?  They call my home phone ut that number is part of my Cox Communications bundle package which lowers overall bill.  I only gave out number to kin as number has no VM box nor can we dial out SUN, JAN 25, 2015. Commercial long distance.  Maybe they want someone else but duh it has been goin' on for at least 3 months and I never answer.  DoJ or attorney general will not prosecute for they do not go after minorities or foreigners.  Government do their jobs for taxpayers?  Far and rare!  :-)

Penn Credit "A debt collector, calling regarding a very personal matter....."
Just another bottom feeding bill collector that calls every single phone number they can find, that MIGHT be linked to the person to whom they are trying to collect on a debt, from. These losers really need to hire a better class of collectors, or at least learn to screen their collectors a little better for their listening capabilities. They will continue to call a wrong number even after being told repeatedly, that they have reached a wrong number. Ignorant, dumb a$$ losers, please find a line of work better suited to your demonstrated (limited) capabilities.  

called twice and never answered after reading these complaints !

I don't have a debt like this.
They call my mom everyday.  Please help

If you know you do not owe a debt, demand validation. Go to the FTC's website. They have valuable information to help you with this:

I can't take this crap anymore.  Call me multiple times a day.  I am looking got a job and so afraid im going to miss one because of these calls.  (Not answering unknown numbers) there has to be something we can do.  They also call my cell which I never have that number out.

Got two calls from these clowns after 7:00p.m. last night.  One of them left a recorded message.  Just for kicks and giggles, I decided to call these clowns back and tell them where to go
 Well, all I got was a recorded message that they could not answer the phone and to please call back later.  If this was a legitimate collection agency, they would at least identify themselves and give youa chance to leave a message .

Been getting numerous calls ever day from this number. No message is ever left however I fine it very annoying.

This company called me fifteen times. Each time I stated "I am sorry, You have the wrong number. Oh we will remove your number from our system. Exactly one week to the day TODAY 3/4/2015 I answer the phone 1800-900-1380 on the line, asking for the same person I stated fifteen times before YOU HAVE THE WRONG NUMBER! This Woman tells me You may have told me that before but I don't think you being honest.Well, I recorded all the calls now let's see what I can get for harassment.

I call them back twice already requesting to have my name removed. Did not work for me.

Considering it isn't a phone company, its a company doing business by phone- they are subject to state and federal regulations. In this state, if you tell them to not call back & they do- you can sue for 1500.00 a call.

Penn Credit is a scam that keeps calling.  Don't answer and never give out personal information.

I just hung up on these clowns for the umpteenth time!
