this [***] place calls me everyday!!! and leaves a msg i never call them back. i would like is how they got my cell number?

i think we should all call them looking for money everyday! lmao

I had a Brick bill that was around 5000. I had called and try to make arrangements back then to give them 3500 if they write it off but was refused. It sat in collections for sometime with the Bricks collection company and each month they would take a small payment and carry over the balance onto the account. After months and years of this as I was a student at the time the interest built to 6000. So my total became 11000. I told them to take a hike that I wouldn't pay that much. After 8 or so years now I'm getting calls from these dumba##es saying I owe 16000 and they can give me a really good deal if I pay it. I actually received a letter saying they'll put in 8500 if I pay the other 8500. It actually came as a cheque in my name made out to them. LOL. Just don't admit you owe them. Can't they take a hint that's it's ludicrus.

DO NOT PAY THEM.
They will reapply the debt to your credit bureau and it will stay there for six to seven years depending on the debt. They are a collection agency collecting debts as old as 25 years! If this debt has been on your bureau and since been removed, the only thing you will do is add it back to your bureau by making some kind of payment.

CALL THE Ombudsman and report the company. These companies need a licence to run, enough complaints and they will be fined, and then shut down. You can also ask for their fax number and the name of a supervisor, fax them a letter, and at the top of the letter be sure to write CEASE AND DESIST, then tell them to stop contacting you. BY LAW, they are not allowed to contact you for three months after they receive a cease and desist letter.

I'M AN EX Collections Supervisor, TRUST ME.

Yes, I just received a call from this so called business entity....the ignorant idiot who made the call he and his company bought 5 files from creditors on my wife and I. we filed legal bankruptcy 6 uears ago and were exonerated of all bebts at that time.

I responded that they bought a pig in a poke. This guy called me a liar and said prove it. I said that my trustee sent our certified lettere to all those accounts.

This outfit clearly doesn't do their homework. Quite frankly, don't let these A holes intimidate you in the least.

They are indeed the scum of the earth...that is putting it mildly.

i keep getting calls from 1-866-566-8850 and from what i can read here its a debt collection agency? im 18 and i have never had any sort of debt, i dont even have a credit card, so i wonder why there are calling me

Don'y be cpmcerned with these idiots and scum of the earth. They should get a real job in the real world and forget about harassing and annoying people for nothing. I reported them and acrtually tolf them off and no more calls have arrived. Answer the call and tell them off....they only understand that type of language.

Well, these cats left a message on my onlisted number so i figure it is for someone else and i ain't gonna call them now!  LOL!

I just got a new phone and I keep getting calls from this number.. it is very aggravating! I am going to block their number.

These people are a**holes....how they get hold of your number is beyond me.  My phone number is soppose to be unlisted but they still manage to get this.  I declared bankruptcy way back in 1987 and they are trying to collect a debt of 68.59 (originally) and now it has ballooned with interest to 1654.26.  The interest rate must be 50% or more per month over the last 24 years.....wtf can I do to get these people off my back.  I have verified that it was originally part of my bankruptcy so does anyone know how are they getting information from so long ago and where????
Aktiv Capital you are crazy motherfu**ers

They aren't calling for me - they are calling for someone that lived in this house - but tracked my phone number and are assuming the idiot they are calling and I are the same - damn idiots! Love it when the message says we are not telemarketers too.

I got a letter from Aktiv Kapital telling me that they have taken me to The Ontario Superior Court of Justice and that they got a Judgement against me in the amout of 26 thousand dollars with interest. apparently this judgement was passed in 2006, but I new nothing about it. They tell me that it is for a MBNA card that I called in stolden over 10 years ago.  the card was closed and is closed on My credit check.  they say that their company has gone to alot of trouble to register this Judgement and that they are going to enforce the judgement.  The card number that they gave me does not match the card numbers on my credit check.  I am very confused as to how all this happens without my knowledge.  If I was being sued would I not know about it? I asked for a copy of my file and they told me that they could not and would not supply that to me that I should got to the court house and get that, but they could not tell me what court house this was registered at?  Does anyone have any advise?  I have an appointment with a lawyer next week, I am not sure what is happening/

That's the number they keep leaving on my voicemail.

I didn't know it was a debt agency until I saw this site.  Now I just call for fun to harass them, and rack up their toll free trunk charges.  Scum.

The best one today was:
Them: "Hi this is Andrew"
Me: "Hi Andrew"
Them: "Can I help you"
Me: "I dunno, can you?"
Them: "Did we call you?"
Me: "I don't know, did yous?"
Them: "Did WE call you?"
Me: "Do you have a personality disorder?"
Them: "Are you playing games? Did we call you?"
Me: "No no, I was just curious because it sounded like you were talking about yourself in a plural tense."
*click* (They hung up)
*ring ring* as I call back*
Them: "Hello".
Me: "Hello, I'd like to play some games."
Them: "Sir, did we call you?"
Me: "Yes, you left a reference number"
Them "What is it"
Me: *reads off number*
Them: "Sir, I don't have a debt.. err that account in our system."
Me: "Does that mean I don't win?"
*click* as I hang up on them laughing yet again. :)

Enjoy folks.

How do you block them

I am finding it annoying too. Has anyone gone to a Lawyer and have them deal with it? I was told from a friend since the debt is over six years old, by law these guys are allowed to call once a day or it is considered harassment for the rest of our lives. My friend said a Lawyer can deal with it and have them stop calling. Anyone done that? did it work? Thanks

They keep laving a msg for me as well. i do not have any debts. how does one  put an end to their calls?

HI Jack, Not to worry about this company.  They are an extremely unprofessional company that buys old debts.  The statute of limitations is 7 years, after that they cannot collect the debt unless you mess up and call them back.  That was your first mistake, they record all calls, and if they get you to admit to the debt that is over 7 years then you may have a problem.  My suggestion to you is to change your phone number and make it private.  If you have not admitted to anything then you are fine and they cannot do anything, just change your number.  Never call them back, never admit, never pay them and never take their calls.  Also note that they go by another name also...General Credit Services, and they have another phone number ...877-588-4274.  You should note, that not only does the statute of limitations run out after 7 years but also MANY of the said debts are untrue, in otherwords SCAMS and some people owe absolutely nothing!!! PURE SCAMMMERS...my suggestion to anyone who is being harrassed by this company is to IGNORE THEM and change your number to a private number.  Most of what they are doing is non-legitimate.

Hi Delia,I just read your post to Jack.These clowns have been calling me for some time now,even after I changed my phone number.It;s an unlisted one but they found it anyway.I keep getting calls every couple of days via automated dial-up.I don't return thier calls but now I believe they are starting to use registered mail as a new tactic. I've gotten mail many times before but not registered so I just left it at the post office to be returned.I think they are trying to collect for a loan over 20 years old from a bank I dont deal with. Is the statute of 7 years for Ontario?

No such person at this number
i returbed the call
I informed them three times,
Put me on hold,
took a bunch of info
sure we will stop ,they assured me
But they still call,




Call them at 1 866 566 8850
Call them again and again
Please use profanity
CALL again use thier time ....
Call and ask them to hold....
Give them all the info they want,,,north pole ,santa,
Ask if you can send it all in cash, even though you dont know the deptor they call for..
You can agree to pay some one elses bill ,if they stop calling.
If they agree call the Cops, and report thier extortion plot.
Call them again....
Can I program my LAN line to keep calling them?
If i had an  IP for them I would ping thier company,,
Untill they stoped calling.

So I' ve been receiving mail from this company as well as phone calls and one night I did take the call. They asked me a bunch of questions and then when I asked them to get to the point they said that they want payment for a debt that is coming up to 7 years old. I ordered a Equifax and it is showing up on my credit report. How long and what can I do to get this off of my report?! I denied the fact that I even owed the money and that I wanted some sort of proof?! Still waiting for that LOL
