801-902-2938

stop calling my number.

Wrong, an FDCPA violation doesn't have to be an intentional act.  Not all excuses "fly" in the debt collection world.  Trying to prove that a violation is unintentional is not easy because the burden is on the debt collector to demonstrate the maitenance of procedures reasonably designed to prevent the violation.

unwanted and annoying calls / will not receive my call when i call them back to take name off the list

They are calling me from 801-902-2938 around 20 times per day and leave no message.  I do not have, nor have I ever had, a Discover card.

These folks have called and called even though I've told them I am not the person they are looking for. I've stopped answering and they've filled my voicemail box so, my friends and family can't leave me messages. I've had the same cell phone number for somewhere in the neighborhood of 15 years so, even though they try to claim I must have just gotten this number and that it shows a Sprint number that belongs to whoever they're looking for, there's simply no way. I'm a Verizon customer. I have absolutely no debt and have never had any debt problems. I've told them to stop calling, threatened them with legal action, etc., and they still keep going. I've finally had it and plan to take legal action. I'm going to request a written validation notice from them (hopefully eHow has the steps right - http://www.ehow.com/how_6526787_report-agency-calling-wrong-number.html ) and then I'm going to let Google voice handle their calls so that I have a solid call log to use against them without having to monkey around with them ringing my phone. God help them if one of their reps is ever dumb enough to stay on the line with me once I tell them I'm recording the call.

repeatedly calls during weekends and odd hours- I do not even have an acct with these [***]! Keeps waking up new baby!

I had the same problem, folks. Then I found out how to block the call. I can only speak for a Verizon phone, but I suspect other carriers phones would be similar. You can block all calls "EXCEPT" anyone on your call list. If their number is not in your database you won't get it. If the incoming number IS in your phone list it will come through. Pretty cool. And I know you're wondering how it's done. I'm an old fart and I can't remember. But I "do" remember I saw it on Youtube.
