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.

Hello all,This is Bryson, if you look up 6 posts you will see that I wrote on here exactly 1 year and 1 day ago. I want to just update you and say that I have never received any kind of contact from these clowns at Pomer and Boccia. They threatened me with a few letters over a year ago; I never called them back or acknowledge any of those letters. I just read them and threw it in the trash. I will add that each letter was more and more aggressive and said that they will be looking at seizing my assets and a bunch of other nonsense like. THEY WERE LYING.  If you ever get contacted by these guys...IGNORE THEM AND DO NOTHING. They can't do anything to you. THE ONLY THING THEY CAN DO IS INTIMIDATE AND SCARE YOU. Like I said before, WHY WOULD THE CREDIT CARD COMPANY GIVE UP ON YOU AND HAND YOUR FILE TO THIS TWO BIT COMPANY??? You know why? LEGALLY THEY CAN'T DO A THING.One final time, IGNORE THEM. Cheers,Bryson

I don't know if I would be worried to much most of these lawyers that do only debt collections are not very good lawyers they do collections because they are not that good, they are however a little sneaky make sure that if they do try and take you to court that you file a defense immediately if you don't they can get a judgement against you.  I only know this because I know someone this happen to she filed a statement of defense, they sued her in Superior Court and not small claims because they don't have to provide documents in Superior Court when they file the claim.  She filed the statement of defense, sent in copies of the documents required and the person suing her had to drop the case since they didn't have a defense they lied in the statement of claim indicating terms that were not true.  This is how these companies work they are basically scammers that try and come across as decent lawyers but they are not.  Don't let it scare you defend yourself if you they prove you owe the money you can always make payment arrangements.  Also check the statue of limitation, its two years if your last payment was 2 years ago and you don't make another payment or admit you owe the money they can't win if you point out the statue of limitation.

More calls and more lies from this collection agency, Pomer & Boccia.  They phoned my cell phone twice today.  The first time, they hung up as soon as I told them they had the wrong number; the second time (one minute later) I asked the caller to stay on the line so that I could advise them that I had kept a log of their calls to my cell phone, in which they ask for "Terry Mercer" and I tell them there is no such person at this number (I don't know this person, and they've never said if it's a male or female Terry.)  The caller, who identified herself as "Julia", denied that they had called my number before (even though I had just told her I had a log of every call since Jan 14, and she was calling from the same number (905) 663-1440.)  She said they would NEVER call back once told they had the wrong number, despite the fact that I have received a total of 8 calls since Jan 14, and have told them on at least 5 occasions that the person they are trying to reach has no connection with the number they are calling.  Since the Collection Agencies Act prohibits a collection agency from continuing to call once they have been told this, I advised them the next call from their firm to my cell phone would result in me filing a complaint under the Consumer Protection Branch.

Have received numerous calls on my cell phone from this phone number over the past few weeks.  The person they ask for is not known to me, and although I've explained that they have the wrong number, they call back, sometimes seconds later.  Once I missed the call, and they left a message for this same mystery person, stating they were calling from "the lawyer's office".  I answered their call again today and asked them to please be aware that they are calling a private cell phone number exclusively used by me (and I'm not the person they're looking for), and they rudely hung up while I was in mid-sentence.  Very unprofessional. I feel sorry for their real "clients".
