they have called twice today, i don't have long distance so i didn't answer, they didn't leave a message either. I do have a credit card with continental finance, it could be them, but i would hope that they would at least leave a message!

i have been getting these phone calls also becasue i had a credit card with them. however i called and canceled the card the other day and then asked how do i get the phone calls to stop and they said they could remove the number from their data base and ever since then i have not recieved anymore phone calls from them. so far only been 2 days. DO NOT EVER GET A CARD THROUGH CONTINENTAL FINANCE, IT IS A BIG JOKE, CHARGE LATE FEES, FINANCE FEES EVEN IF YOUR PAYMENT IS ON TIME BIG BIG WASTE OF TIME AND MONEY. EVEN IF YOU CANCEL THE CARD THEY WILL STILL KEEP ADDING FEES AND STUFF TILL IT GETS TO A CERTAIN POINT THEN THEY WILL SEND IT TO A COLLECTION AGENCY. THESE PEOPLE SHOULD BE REPORTED TO SOMEONE.

Hello everyone--Does ANYONE know who to report a telephone number to that keeps calling several times a day and will not answer when I or my son picks up the phone? This is harassment, but I do not know who to report it to. No one seems to know either. I have put these guys on the National No Call List, but that did not do any good. I am going to try to report these guys to the Better Business Bureau and see if they will do anything.
