877-658-8518

The call was not to me, but to my elderly parents-in-law. The caller was Ryan Nee of NCO financial systems; an extremely obnoxious, childish, and rude bully who has had several complaints about his collection tactics.

(877) 658-8518 actually belongs to:
Nationwide Credit, Inc. (Headquarters)
2015 Vaughn Road, Bldg 400
Kennesaw, GA 30144
Phone: (770) 644-7400
Fax: (770) 612-7299


You should contact the company's Compliance Department if you are receiving calls in error.  Calls made in error from collection agencies are not violations of No Call laws.  However, if determined that an incorrect number is being called, and the collection agency IS NOTIFIED that the wrong number is being called, the calls must cease.  However, collection agencies can call you until doomsday, if you don't call them back and tell them they're calling a wrong number.

More on Nationwide Credit, Inc.-- ten years ago the company agreed to a FTC fine of $1M for unfair/illegal practices (although they admitted no guilt). This, according to the FTC report, was the largest fine against a company in FTC history. It appears they are still up to their same old tricks, employing bullies who do not follow the law.

More about Nationwide Credit, Inc.-- When I called the number that I was given by the caller, a woman who answered the phone said the company was 'Nationwide Financial.' However, this company is NOT a collection agency and is a respected financial institution.

Okay, so what do you do if they call you.  I have received the same type of treats, bulling, called names, etc., and when I try and explain I have a identify theft claim w/the federal gvmnt, they still call and threaten.  What can you do if they don't stop.. I have reported them to the attorney general, but apparently they don't care if they break the law. Any help wld be appreciated

For the past month or so I've been receiving NUMEROUS calls from this number as logged under "missed calls."  Some of the calls come in when I'm home, but I don't answer calls from blocked caller IDs.  I've received multiple calls in a short period of time, sometimes 3 or 4 calls spaced 20 to 30 minutes apart; very annoying.  I found this site while attempting to identify the caller.  If it is in fact a debt collection agency, they definitely have a wrong number.

They skip trace Skippy.  They look up a debtor's family and neighbors. Nothing is secret anymore.  Thank Bush and his Patriot Act.

This number is Nationwide Credit, a bill collector specializing in credit card collection.  AMEX uses them, but so do VISA and MasterCard companies like Chase, BOA, and Washington Mutual.

A reminder to all of you hounded by these folks and others like them...they are just doing their job.  However, the ball is always in your court because they are NOT allowed to call you on your cell phone or at your toll-free number, and they are NOT allowed to call you at home or at work if you JUST TELL THEM NOT TO.  If you say this, then it is an unfair collection practice and a listable offense with the FCC.  This applies to ALL creditors.

Called for someone else with a different name and a different company Special A Credit  Mary Smith called back Nationwide Credit
Received a phone call which stated if they had the wrong telephone number to hang up.  This was done after I complained about Nationwide. I requested the company not to call prior to these action.
The police (maybe) was at my house one night attempting to gain entry and walking throughout my house and attempting to walk upstairs in mt house.  They statement was I made a emergency phone call. I had not.  They did not call my home number to see if anyone responded.  I did not ask to see ID based on the uniform.  
My neighbors said someone was taking pictures of my house last week.  
I contacted FTC again today.  The person I spoke to said call the police.     Have the neighbors call the police if anyone would appear at my residence. HAD ENOUGH I do not owe them anything.  I have had my credit blocked because of identity theft.
I do not us AMEX, VISA, MasterCard, Chase, BOA nor Washington Mutual.
Oh well lessons learned.  Tell them not to call does not work.

I keep receiving calls from 877-658-8518 asking for someone named Barlett.
This is the Causey residence and if they checked before calling by doing a bit of research they would find no one lives here put my husband and myself.  Please delete this number from your calling list. 941-475-7812

You have been calling me often.
Please do not call any more

IT is NCO, Nationwide Credit, NCC I believe they are all related. Send two letters telling them to cease all communications and also a fax. My next step is to report them to the FTC for the violation. The letter came from Clark Howards web site under Credit/Debt called the "Drop Dead Letter" if you need a model. Both numbers are 866-227-658-8518 the other below.

they keep on calling me. but it's a wrong person

The message they left said only that they wanted to verify an address. They call several times a day and have for the last week or so

Anyone can selectively block unwanted calls from these collection agencies by accessing the features directly from your home phone.  For my area, to selectively block a call, you wait until the unwanted caller hangs up and dial *60.  A voice prompt will come on the line and give you directions on how to block the last call and how to turn the call block feature on.  If you have questions on how to do this in your area, call your local telephone company's tech support department and they can give you guidance.  I used to be badgered by these same idiots, calling for someone that does not live at my residence.  It was obviously a wrong number, but they won't stop calling no matter how much convincing I try to give them that I am NOT the person they are looking for.  Since I started using the call block feature, the calls have almost completely stopped.  I currently have 8 of these annoying [***] blocked.

They ARE a collection agency.  They continually call me asking for some guy despite the fact I repeatedly tell them they have the wrong number.  Annoying!

If you do have a debt that you have not payed they will find you and call you non stop. In my case they used a guy that was a tracker. He is payed to find you. If he serves you papers it is an automatic $200 charge. He did not want to give me a phone # to call or the company trying to get the money because it cost him part of his commission. Told him if he shows up to my work and serves me paperwork I will most definitely go to jail for assault.  "Do you really not know what you did"? Here's a number and claim #. Called them. I took a 125pay advance Back in 2007 in Fort Lauderdale. I can own up to that. I remember it like yesterday. The lady told me I owed $390 then said oh wait. Since he did not serve you papers it is $190. I live in Omaha now and have for 5 years. Was waiting for that to show up. Tried to pay it 4 years ago and it was out of the paycheck advances system because it had been given to a collector. There are a lot of scams out there and you have be careful. I have people from India calling me every now and then. If you do owe, fess up to it. If you get served papers it is an extra $200 fee. In this case I did pay because I know that it was legit. Also, if you can ever help it. Do not use a paycheck advance, some of those places sell your info. That's how you get scammers calling you all the time. The scammers will tell you that you will have a Federal Marshal come to arrest you. That is illegal and won't happen. Don't let them scare you. If they have an accent and a bit of background noises they are more than likely a scammer. Take at you frustrations with the scammers, call them every name in the book. They will cuss at you too. That would not happen with a legit company. I am a sales professional and have to carry myself in that way , but when scammers try and take my money I will go medieval on them.
