There's an automated ma****e that called me on a regular basis about 3 months ago asking for somebody named "Liberty Shatman". I know, that doesn't sound like a real name at all, but the voice of the computer was too unintelligible to discern what it was really saying. It took about eight trys of calling back to reach a human being to inform them that I'm affiliated with no such name, and to remove me from the call list. That happened... for a while. Now they're calling back requesting the same person.
(800) 947-2987
Computer voice tells me to call Neal to collect a debt. No debt needs collected. Must be a fraud, tried to call back & no one answers, computer tells you to wait. They call most every day at least once.
(800) 947-2987
I keep getting a call from them using a recording which is illegal and should be reported to the Feds at the link below. It is illegal to use recorded calls even if you are not on the Govt do not call list, so make the report.https://complaints.donotcall.gov/complaint/complaintcheck.aspx?panel=2

I get 2 calls a day to my cell phone which I never answer and they have never left a message. I will begin spamming them but will do it from a payphone this way they will not see my number and it will cost them extra. We should all begin calling from a payphone and walk away leaving the receiver off the hook.
(800) 947-2987
They keep calling and calling, but **** up the moment I answer. I have no dealings with this company. It is really annoying.

They called and asked for Roy Lawd, (or other, could hear clearly) No one works here by that name. Then, "If this is Roy press 1, if not, press 2...." I pressed 2,then "If roy cant come to the phone right now press 2." I pressed 2, then This call is from Charlene please call back at 800-947-2987. Thank you goodbye." It was all totally automated.

This number calls and asks for my husband which in no way ever has my cell phone number on any paperwork he is attached to. They will not give any information away without getting personal information from me. (OBVIOUSLY will not give them anything) If they are a real debt collection company and they want their money, then they better tell us what its for.
(800) 947-2987
I have never done any business with this company, nor do I have ANY outstanding obligations.
(800) 947-2987
I have been getting voicemails from these people and don't know why. I have no idea who they are or what they want. They asked for my husband, but my husband does not have this number or know it as it is a work cell phone number. Is this some sort of joke?

This company has called my house twice looking for somebody who does not live with here. Both times we returned the call and politely informed them to remove our home number from their records. Obviously it didn't work.
(800) 947-2987
This number always calls. One night they called our phone at around 9:30 PM when we answered they said ( Got Wrong Number Sorry ). Then they LM on our recorder - If this is ( ) listen if not then it ****s up.
(800) 947-2987
I'm on the do not call list. So why do I have to put up w/these constance calls?
(800) 947-2987
this is what the FDCPA has to say about these type of phone calls. § 806. Harassment or abuse A debt collector may not engage in any conduct the natural consequence of which is to harass, oppress, or abuse any person in connection with the collection of a debt. Without limiting the general application of the foregoing, the following conduct is a violation of this section: (1) The use or threat of use of violence or other criminal means to harm the physical person, reputation, or property of any person. (2) The use of obscene or profane language or language the natural consequence of which is to abuse the hearer or reader. (3) The publication of a list of consumers who allegedly refuse to pay debts, except to a consumer reporting agency or to persons meeting the requirements of section 603(f) or 604(3) of this Act. (4) The adverti*****t for sale of any debt to coerce payment of the debt. (5) Causing a telephone to ring or engaging any person in telephone conversation repeatedly or continuously with intent to annoy, abuse, or harass any person at the called number. (6) Except as provided in section 804, the placement of telephone calls without meaningful disclosure of the caller’s iden***y. I think we should s**** sending letters to our senators and congressmen and fight to get these computer calls outlawed . Half the time they don’t even know whose phone number they are calling and a computer does not care.

They call on average of twice a day on my cell phone. There is a recorded message with no option for me to ask for my number to be removed from their calling list. They are asking for someone whom I don't know: presumably the former owner of this number. They are wasting both my time and their own. Why would they incessantly call a number that won't do any good for them? Complete idiots!
(800) 947-2987
They've repeatedly called for someone whom I don't know. Called them & told them they had the wrong #. They ***g up on me!

I recently upgraded my cell service to unlimited minutes. When I get calls from numbers I don't recognize, I wait for the voicemail. If it's not my problem, I save the number as "DO NOT ANSWER" that way I know when it's a **** calling. Ha! I should put my ex's number that way too huh?

I called them back and they were collecting a past due bill for "Bellsouth" phone company. The woman wasn't very current in English but she was very polite. The address they gave me to mail payments to is CBC******X 163250COLUMBUS, OHIO 43216

(800) 947-2987
I finally called this number back and was aked for my account number. I politely asked the agent what company she was representing. She replied by asking for my number. I gave her a fake number and she said that that is not what showed up on caller id. I asked if she could see the number why ask. I asked her what number showed up and she refused to answer. I advised that I only have one monthly bill. My mortgage. It is a couple of months ahead and i really doubt that I am the party her company is trying to reach. THIS WILL BE THE LAST TIME I SPEAK TO THEM IN A PROFESSIONAL MANNER...
(800) 947-2987
One post above gave the company name. I found the address below on their website. I looked online regarding Fair Credit Act,etc and it stated that if you are receiving calls/letters and it is not for you, you should write a letter and send two copies-one regular mail and one certified mail with returned receipt requested. That way you receive confirmation back of them receiving the letter. You have to give your number or address (whichever they are contacting you through) and state they are to stop contacting you. If they don't and you a copy of the letter (and receipt confirmation) you now have legal grounds to sue them for harassment.CBC******X 1810COLUMBUS, OHIO 43216I get calls, but no messages. They call my cell phone and it drives me nuts. I get different ones calling and no one will leave a message. They call while I'm at work, so all I get is a missed call.
(800) 947-2987
They constantly call me. on my answering ma****e it's alway the very end of a message. So obviously their ma****e doesn't recognize that they have reached a ma****e and s****s talking before the end of my outgoing message. They call everday about the same time, while I am at work. So, I have never had the "pleasure" of speaking with them.
(800) 947-2987
Caller left two messages. The message (in an automated voice) said my name, and then it said (in a person's voice) "do not listen to this message". I called back to see who is calling me. They asked for my account #. I asked who they were. CBCS they said. A***n, what's my account #. When I s****ed questioning them, they ***g up on me.

have told these people the person they are looking for (Carol Campbell) is not at this phone number and never has been...still after telling them to verify who the phone was listed too they still insist on calling at all hours.
(800) 947-2987
I have been getting these calls to me cellphone as well. They just curse or say things that make no sense. I am reporting this # to the BBB, FTC (federal trade commission), and the attorney general's office. These people do this because they get paid by the hour to make a certain amount of calls a day. If you we don't report businesses like this we allow them to be the a**holes they are. I am a professional bill collector (somebody has to do it)and I know the penalties the company and individual collectors face for this type of action. They also know it is hard to track which is why they don't care. If enough of us hold them responsible by reporting this action, the company will either address it or cease to exist.
(800) 947-2987
Automated calling almost everyday. No idea why they're calling me.
(800) 947-2987
Well I have a debt with this company through SBC. When they call even though they have the wrong number tell them to either cease communication on your number or ask for a supervisor when you can actually get someone on the phone. I've done collections myself for 2 years so I know trust me. Inform them their violating the FDCPA because if their calling you all the time and you've informed them they have the wrong number its harassment plain and simple.
(800) 947-2987

(800) 947-2987
Who the heck are these people. Two years ago I repeatedly told them that the person they were looking for was not at that phone number. I finally gave up trying to tell them to stop calling. I still receive two phones calls back to back twice a week from them. Messages left on my ma****e always say the same thing. I suppose this automation will always be connected to my phone number for eternity!! Someone needs to find out the company name of this company so many of us can ban together and file a harrassment suit!
(800) 947-2987
Always leaves a voicemail message that says "Do not listen to this call." That's it. Nothing before or after that message. What good is that?

Over the past year I have been getting calls from this 800-947-2987 number, asking me to call "Tom". He always asks for the same person.....Linda Monry. Have called them repeatedly to tell them that this is my cell phone and I have no idea who this woman is. They have told me they'll remove my number...HA! A few weeks or a couple of months go by and then the calls s**** a***n.

COMPANY CONTINUES TO CALL EVEN AFTER THEY ARE TOLD THAT I AM NOT THE PERSON THEY ARE LOOKING FOR AND THAT THAT PERSON DOES NOT LIVE HERE AND HAS NEVER LIVED HERE. MY NEXT STEP, AS YOURS SHOULD BE ALSO IS TO CALL MY STATE ATOURNEY GENERAL OFFICE AND FILE A COMPLAINT. THIS MIGHT BE THE ONLY WAY TO MAKE THESE IGNORANT PEOPLE STOP CALLING AND HARRASING INNOCENT PEOPLE.

Hi, These CBCS folks called my home number today 4/3/2008. My caller ID showed they were calling from 800-947-2987. I called them back and got a live person. She was very tense and wanted my account #. I said I have no account # and told her that they had called me. She then wanted my phone # that they had called. I refused to give it to them. She said she would not be able to remove my number unless I gave it to them. I told her that I never asked her to remove my number, why would I want her to remove my number. Now she was getting hot! She said that they would continue to call my number unless I gave them my number to have it removed. I told her I would continue to call her back and play the same game. She then had a few choice words and ended our conversation. So go ahead and please call these folks back at 800-947-2987 and play their game. It very fun and will really give you a warm fuzzy feeling.

These calls maybe Iden***y thieves. They ask for you home phone number and last four of you SSN. Basic info to access your bank accounts.Hmmmmmm.
(800) 947-2987
Called saying I had a bad debt with Texaco, which I don't. Refused to tell me if it was Texaco (who they said was the original creditor), or someone else who had bought debts and placed it with them for collection. Then a few days later, I received a "settlement offer" from them for 50% of the supposed debt, and that letter said the original creditor was Bank One! I've never done business of any kind with Bank One, and I don't owe money to Texaco, either. I believe they are just trying to see who will send them money.
(800) 947-2987
they call my cell phone non stop and I donot know who they are they will not tell me who they are only that they need to talk to someone who is not me and when I say I am not they say sure you are not

I got this phone number when I moved here about a year ago... and have got about one one or two automated calls a week looking for some one named Darline Waters (Walters ?). Three times the calls have been from live people, who refused to identify themself, to whome I have explained that I didn't have a clue what they were talking about, and would they please stop. They have not. I'm going to call the Feds about this, but don't expect that they will do much, if any thing, to stop it. Perhaps I'll just have my phone number c****ed.
(800) 947-2987
these people are idiots, they don't believe when I tell them the person they are calling isnt at this number..they are rude, refuse to identify themselves. My guess is they are not a reputable company and they hire misfits who cannot understand english. After all of these calls, If I had any info on the party they are calling I wouldnt give it to them.
(800) 947-2987
I got a call telling me to wait for an agent. (I thought I had won a contest or so****ing). After 5 minutes this person with a deep voice said "hello, Mr. D-----" (they obviosly read my caller ID). I said, Yes, Sir, what company do you represent. The person responded by saying "You A** H---" This is a collection agency I am not a Sir. The person promptly ***g up on me. I have a good credit score with nothing in the closet that I can think of.
(800) 947-2987
Receiving repeated automated calls for person I never heard of. Latest was about 6:25 pm. If I am X push 1, if not 2; when push 2, then push 1 if X can come to phone, or 2 if he is unavailable. No way to tell them he has never lived here or had this phone number. Previous call (after many) tried 1. Person refused to identify the company or provide any information which could result in follow up.
(800) 947-2987
We are a business and have and answer our phone 24/7. We get some call from the number below, asking about a name I wasn't familiar with. Called twice, and didn't identify the company

Bill collectors. CBCS. They don't leave a message and when you call back you'll get someone on the line trying to collect a bill. They will **** up your phone.
