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!!!

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.

I was getting calls from +1 877-250-7070 for a couple of weeks now so I blocked that number from calling me and now I'm getting calls from (250) 762-7070.  I simply do not answer the calls. they do not go to voicemail; in short, I ignore them.  If you are getting calls from ARO (collection agency) from either of the two above numbers, I would strongly suggest you block both numbers from calling you.  If they get an answer, it only eggs them on.Do not answer, they will call at random times  of the day if you do answer they'll say "John Doe"?.....    if you say yes, or uh huh..   they will put your number in their confirmed number database.  So remember... just do not answer them to begin with.    AND file a complaint with the CRTC.If you accidently answer a call from someone who starts with "John Doe?"...  reply with "Who's calling please?"............      then tell them you'll check if there's a John Doe, but you're just working reception and our last guest checked out or some such.https://www.lnnte-dncl.gc.ca/notimp-impnot-engyou can also request to have your number placed on the DO-NOT-CALL-LIST

I normally just use these pages to read, but this is pretty bad -- if you are seriously representing the company, why not try a little tact and class? Some people yes, just avoid their responsibilities - but other people aren't in that boat, and lumping everyone together like that is unfair and not a good business practice. I work for a payday loan company and a HUGE part of my job is collections - of course you need to be stern, but treating people with respect goes a long way. Furthermore, writing a huge statement like that with poor spelling, typing and grammar, will not gain ANY respect from the clients on here getting information. If I were someone that legitimately earned a phone call from you, and I read that statement, I would be even less likely to return your call. Most of your clients are human beings in real predicaments that have caused them to end up in this situation. If you treat them as such, you will get farther. The ones that are just 'dodging' aren't going to pay, regardless of what you say; so focus on the people who are actually willing. From one collector to another.

quit calling this number dumb a**es or else big trouble!

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.

this company keeps calling my company (my own company) and when I answer and say my company name, the person on the other end just hangs up, but yet they call my company up to 10 times a day and the same thing,or, if I am not in my office they don't leave any msg. They just keep calling, grow some nackers and say something don't just hang up or at least say we have the wrong number and we will remove it from our calling list.

Called my alternate phone number that no one but my place of work knows/calls. I don't owe anyone money except the government and banks for my student loans/line of credit. I'm in the process of paying it back.
