Caller: Debt Recovery (905) 366-0206

They called me this morning around 10:15am (Tues Feb 25, 2020) and left a voicemail message asking me to call them back. They identified themselves as "Debt Recovery" I have a few issues with this call:
(1) They called me Lucy (my name is Louise)
(2) I have no outstanding debts that I know of.
(3) I am not going to incur a long-distance charge by calling them back. If they were a reputable company, they would have a 1-800 number.

Caller: (905) 366-0205

Called me twice this morning I didn’t answer because I was trying to feed my 2 daughters then received an email saying to go to bmo bank make a payment of $140 because my bank charged them the nsf fee and I had a loan for a vehicle I had 4 years ago which I’m pretty sure insurance paid it off after hitting a deer on my way to work one morning. And I called this guy out on it being a scam and he got all snooty with me about it saying “good for you for doing your research”. Claiming he’s a debt collector and before when I spoke with them apparently they have a docket number and everything for this loan I haven’t paid back and threatened to take legal action

Caller: I don't know

Got a call from this number on a business line no clue how they got this number as we are a cash based business...

I recieved an automated message from (905) 366-0204.  They told me it was from NCR and input automated voice for my name.  The whole msg was non-person.  The msg said to call back the same day on an important legal matter.

Seems this company is a scam - they may have a 'pretty' website but its mis leading! I JUST received a call and answerd the phone only to be greeted with an automated machine, asking me to call this number back (905) 366-0204) regarding a time sensitive legal matter! I immediately researched and ALL information leads to a scam. There is even a U-tube video of how irrate the 'collectors' get when you call them out or ask for more information - they are NOT at all professional - if intimidation is there means of collecting, they have it all wrong - the simply are trying to scam you! If it was time sensitive why is it automated asking ME to call a LONG DISTANCE number back? Why was it not a LIVE person calling to instantly speak to me if I'm such a bad debt payer? And, further more, why can I not clear a debt with the debting company - why does it have to go to them?? its all a little strange and I'm very skeptical of this type of call!!! On to the next they are - watch and be aware of this number :)

I use skype for my landline even though it is a USA number they still call me all the time, I figured out that in Skype you can BLOCK the number.They know my name in the recorded message and call at all hours - now they are zappedMust be a scam

Back int 2008, I had a membership with Priemier Fitness cancelled.  I was recommended by the Bank I deal with to stop payments on any and all transactions with Premier.  I however did allow the remaining payments for personal training to be taken out of a credit card until it was paid off.  Soon after that, I began to receive "collections" letters from Premier threatening to send me to collections.  Each of these "letters/notices" had different amounts and indicated that I had to pay within 10 days (but usually the these letters were received by me 2 days before the 10 day cut-off and the postage date was usually 5 days earlier).

Anyways, the last straw came in late 2009 when they sent me a "collections" letter that was signed by a Hinna, who coincidently had an incorrect phone extension...they have 5 digit extension numbers and this one had only 4 numbers). I immediately called Premier head office and blasted them over the phone and never heard anything until today.

On August 17th, I received a voice mail regarding a legal matter by NCRR.  First thought was that lawyers DO NOT correspond via telephone.

I called the number and found out that it was to National Credit Recovery.

A VERY young sounding girl answered the phone. I asked her what the issue was and she told me it was regarding Premier Fitness for a collections amount of $387.00

I promptly told her that this claim was fraudulent and that Premier cannot send people to any collections agencies as THEY ARE DEEPLY IN COLLECTIONS THEMSELVES! (basis of conflict of interest).

This young girl got very angry with me as I told her the facts and SHE hung up on me only to call me back a few minutes later demanding the name of my lawyer (I did tell her that I would be notifiying my lawyer).  I gave her my lawyer's information.  She then proceeded to tell me that I was acting like a child (HOW IRONIC considering that she didn't seem like she could have even graduated high school yet).

By the way, I did notify my lawyer and by LAW the company in question MUST notify you of any delinquincies within 30 days and must offer 60 days to make restitution!  Additionally, any claims over 2 years or 24 months (especially when consistent information has been absent) has no legal bearing for collections activity.  The company can technically take you to small claims court, but depending upon the amount, it is not very lucrative from a monetary standpoint.

I WAS ALSO ADVISED BY MY LAWYER THAT IF NCRR DID REPORT IT TO EQUIFAX OR TRANSCANADA THAT I CAN AND WILL SUE FOR SLANDER OF MY CREDIT RATING!

I agree with all previous posts...how come after 3 years, Premier is sending people to "3rd Party Collections". As well, this NCRR is a new collections agency and should have known about Premier's shady reputation and public fraudulent activities from the beginning.

I should also note that I did call back to NRCC and spoke to another representative who took all my information and indicated that she would be passing along my legal information to her "manager". Will keep you posted.
