Caller: ARO

They’ve been calling me everyday including holidays for the past few months. I answered once and they they said that I owe money. I asked to who and they wouldn’t tell me. They wanted to verify that I was who they said I was. I said tell me who I owe money to. Wouldn’t tell me. I told them either tell me who I owe money to and why I owe them money or stop calling me. Never told me. I haven’t answered one of their calls since then. They will even call after business hours.

welcome to collections pay your bills!!!

usually you are in collections pay your bill

Caller: ARO

be harassed by ARO for no reason

They call me asking my date of birth for Security Reasons.If I say I am not going to give it than they want my address. They are calling my cell phone also. I do not have a land line had to give it up to save money. They know my situation and still keep calling.

Called me 8 times saying I owed $3,412 dollars  on some credit card, I have never even owned a credit card. They new my birthday, my social security number and woman sounded very threatening.

I don't even know a Jennifer...don't know who these folks are or what they are collecting on, but they are relentless. ?Next call gets a CRTC complaint.

Got a call on my private line from a woman looking for a person with a name similar to mine; told her she had the wrong number, looked up the name and gave her the correct phone number; she claimed to be calling from ARO, a collection agency based in Kelowna, B.C.  Wouldn't give name or number; call display showed "private caller, number unavailable".  All calls to our detachment are recorded; asked one of the civilian staff to trace the call; came back with this number.  Collection agents usually will usually identify the client creditor and quote a file number.  This one wouldn't.  Didn't know she was
calling Les Gendarmes.  We think it's a scam.

I find it hilarious that a rep from the number is on this site trying to defend his/her job.


[removed:lang] get a real job.

You need to print off your credit report through Trans Union.   It is possible you are a victim of identity theft.   I viewed by credit report and saw The Bay card with a $2,200 balance.   I disputed it and told them that I had reported that card lost/stolen about 10 years ago.

They then removed the debt and now it is off my credit report.   Weird how it never went to collections??

Sounds to me you are a victim of identity theft.  I would do a credit check on yourself.  Try Transunion.  If it shows, you can dispute that.  Also, if nothing shows, you know they are a scam.There are a lot of collection agencies that are scammers!
