Don't let these peckerheads intimidate you. They use threatening calls to try to get money out of people. I just tell them to piss off. I know for a fact I dont own anything since Im not in debt. They can take up there plausible cause with the business end of my expensive shotgun :). Good day.

Not true I was quite nice till she started getting rude and literally. Screaming at me and the person she was looking for doesn't even reside at this number

This number (905) 663-1440 just called me and I did not pick up. Upon retrieving my message, it's a lady that claims I need to call her back about my house. I have no idea what she wants. She did not even mention where she is calling from or who she is. Very unprofessional and awkward for someone to just mention your address.

Thanks for posting that guys it really helped! This lady called me today and she was extremely rude yelling and screaming and even hung up on me. I called the Law Society of Ontario and they did not have a listing for this number! I mentioned to the law society person that they are claiming to be Palmer and Boccia and they say they do know a lawyer with that last name but the number does not match it. I am almost convinced this is some kind of fraud looking for information so DONT GIVE ANY INFORMATION when they ask you for it. These are strangers who don't even have their "law firm" on file at the Law Society. The Law Society of Ontario told me to file a complaint about it online. You have to visit www.lsuc.on.ca Click under "for the public"Then Click "complaining about a lawyer or paralegal"Download the complain form and send it to them by fax or by mail. I am sure once they see all the complaints they will do something!I hope this helps! and this should help all of us realize that no matter what people claim to be, they are complete strangers and we should not provide them with any information before knowing 100% who they are and who they work for. Goodluck guys! and don't let these rude people ruin your days!

Here's a link to an Ontario Government website that covers the 'act' pertinent to collections.   Pomer & Boccia does not follow these rules

I don't understand if your company is so professional why would you have to have employee's come on a message board and call people losers, I think this says a lot about your company. I don't have an issues with these people personally but they are sending my father letters, my father is a senior who was in the Hospital for 5 months, 1 month he was in a coma we sent a letter (written by the Dr.) to Canadian Tire explaining that he was not able to confirm he owed this money since he also had a stroke and couldn't remember plus at that time he wasn't expected to live we asked for confirmation and received nothing until this letter from Pomer & Boccia.  So to the person who is calling people losers, you are the loser since they have to prove the debt first before they can go to court most can't since they don't keep documents so bring it one losers. This says a lot about Canadian Tire who would hire a company that has its employees come into a message board to write these messages.

I have found what "appears" to be a legit website...however, if you search under  Careers, you can see that it is simply a collection agency. I have worked for several collection agencies over the years and I am well versed with the lingo they use...NO law firm would actually contact you. The collection agency would do the dirty work and the law firm would only get involved if it's over $5000.00.

This is the website:

They could get in soooo much trouble for misrepresentation....has anyone on here ever contacted the police or better business bureau or anything?

Remember this: "The Ontario Limitation Act 2002 , came into force on January 1, 2004. It sets two years as the term (Section 4). This limitation will be reinstated where the debtor acknowledges the debt or makes a partial payment towards repayment of his debt. If the default occurred prior to January 1, 2004, the creditor will continue to have 6 years to pursue the claim. However, if the default occurred after January 1, 2004 then the 2-year rule applies. These guys are jokes, do a search and look at their website. I've never seen a law firm?s website that doesn't give you a bio of all their lawyers, (not saying there aren?t any, just haven?t seen one). To me this is a sign that they are fakes. Look at my quote above and if your debt is out of the status of limitation they can't touch you. I REPEAT THEY CAN'T DO ANYTHING TO YOU. Just ignore their letters and ignore their calls. If you want tell them go ahead sue me!!! If they tried to do it, the courts would reject them because their status of limitation is up. With me they are talking about a debt from the 90s. There is no way a court will look at a debt from the 90s. But remember people, they will threaten you by sendint  you bogus letters; they will start making up laws and other things to scare you. IT'S ALL A BLUFF AND THEY WANT YOU TO FALL FOR IT. To those "workers" on here that keep saying pay your debts, I say to you. It was between me and Canadian Tire. I don't believe in any third party nonesense - like contact resources or 4th party - like Pomer & Boccia. Similar to the criminal code and summary conviction offenses, the police must charge you within 6 months or they lost their opportunity.  Would I go to the police after 6 months and say I want to be charge for a summary conviction offence even though legally they can?t? So why would I pay a debt that is out of the status of limitation?   People think about this, would a big business give up on collecting on a debt, especially when it is worth so much money and give it to a two-bit group? The company is not going after you because they know they can't because it?s too late, but Pomer & Boccia, Contact Resources and other jokes hope you don't know they can?t legally get it from you and their only hope is to scare and intimidate you into paying them. Do not negotiate with them and end up paying a cent and do not acknowledge the debt in writing!!!One more time if the status of limitation is up and in my case it?s something from the 90s, tell them go ahead.

I also recieved a call form this company identified themselves as Palmer and baucher law offices. Asked to call Mrs. Kirk @(416) 637-2592. Total fraud. If you receive a call from these people contact Toronto and York Regional Police to inform, as this is fraud.
