The phone calls from this number [no name comes up on the caller id just the phone number] s****ed on May 10. W***ver owns the phone number is a real dumbf**k as these people [person w***ver the f**k ever] keep dialing the number to our business fax ma****e, thinking it's a real phone number when it's a business fax number they are calling. They do this all f**king day long, clogging our business fax ma****e, blocking other businesses from faxing us. We had tried calling the number but cannot ever get through. If these phone calls do not f**king stop, we will sue the phone company network that the number is on and we will sue w***ver it is that is supposed to own the number.

This number keeps calling my cell phone daily 3 or 4 times per day six days per week and when asking them why are they calling me, they have someone with some accent basically stating that this call is being recorded and that there is an outstanding debt. When I asked them what this was regarding, they claim that I already know that information. Now how are you going to take care of this. They will not divulge that info. I told them that if you are trying to collect on so****ing old such as an old bill that had already been paid, you can forget it. Quit ****ing up my phone and go straight to h***.

It would appear that they robocall phone numbers. If you pick up, that's how they know someone is on the other end. My advice, mess with them. I have received two calls so far. the first one was no answer, the second one I didn't pick up. No vm was left. I marked the number in my cell phone, so when they call back. I will completely mess with them, and act as if I am a member of a government agency and by them calling me, they are committing a federal offense.

Apparently they buy old debts. They are trying to collect on so****ing that I dealt with 16 years ago, and it was taken care of at that time. So they are not only buying debt that isn't owed, but they are violating statute of limitations too.LAST time they called me was to try to collect on someone with the same last name as me, but is NOT me. They are just *****ing in the dark.

Been getting calls from this number. Found out that this dirtbag CA Allied Interstate inc has repeatedly violated the FCRA at every chance they get. Pls DO NOT GIVE these *****s any 411 except to tell them to go pound sand. They need to follow the law like every other CA company. Send them a validation letter and a D/C letter. Cease and Desist order.
