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!!!

usually you are in collections pay your bill

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.

You need to print off your credit report through Trans Union.   It is possible you are a victim of identity theft.   I viewed by credit report and saw The Bay card with a $2,200 balance.   I disputed it and told them that I had reported that card lost/stolen about 10 years ago.

They then removed the debt and now it is off my credit report.   Weird how it never went to collections??

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.

This number is calling my 12 year old Daughters phone. What the hell would a so called debt collector or what ever they are need to call her? It's a scam! Why do we put up with this crap! Send These people to jail!! I have told my kids never to pick up a number they don't know, sad really can't even own a phone with out harassment. Number has never been listed only been activated for a few months. Thanks cell phone companies for selling our numbers to criminals. Heads up people dont fall for anything these people say to you! Scam!!

Hey a**hole from ARO how about you have your dumb a** employess confirm and get their facts right before making a call to people.

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

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.
