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.

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.

Tips:...or place a collect call.

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.

I do not have any collections outstanding, but these idiots are phoning me trying to collect money from my Next Door Neighbor. They use reverse directory to find the closest addresses and then start phoning people in the neighborhood. How "greasy" is this?Having the neighborhood become privy to your most personal affairs?This company has "NO" morals.....DO YOUR JOB... Get out of your desk and make the trip yourself. Stop trying to ruin people's lives by including the entire neighborhood in your debt collection!I'm phoning as many complaint boards as I can right now as they have on 3 separate occasions contacted me 'explaining clearly' that they know that this is not the right address but were hoping that I could either have the person contact them or that I might provide them with a current contact number.

they keep calling my house for an old room mate,we told them he moved,but I guess they get that a lot.They keep calling.So now I get there fax number from below.and I fax BLACK paper lots of it.it just uses up there ink.

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.

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 wascalling Les Gendarmes.  We think it's a scam.
