Aktiv Capital.  Collection Agency.

Once you establish the various numbers associated with these pests, assign a silent ringtone by making them a contact. No more bothersome rings when you least expect them. Works with cellphones, not sure on land lines.

Got a call from a lady claiming to be looking for some one with the same last name as mine. Asked how long i had the number. Made me wonder.

This number keeps calling my house.  I don't know  the number so i don't answer.   After checking here i'm perplexed, if it is a collection agency, i don't know why they would be calling me.   I don't owe anyone any money, whatsoever!!!!

it is aktiv capital. they claim i have an outstanding balance on an old credit card, they have been calling me for about 3 years now, threatening to sue me in court,Which they will never do, I don't owe them anything, the acc. number they give me and what i have do not match, last time the called me i told the rep to "f" off, bunch of spineless bastards! They haven't called since

Let me give many of you some help:

Aktiv Capital buys up old debt and then uses extreme methods to collect.

BUT if you're being harassed by them, you have a weapon: "stat barred". It means that they cannot use the courts to get money from you after a two year period, unless you acknowledge to them that you owe them the money and/or make a payment on the debt.!!

Once I found out, I knew the balance of power had changed! Hooray! Now I don't ever answer their calls or acknowledge that I owe them any money (I'm not sure I even do they're so evil).

Know your rights. !

Also remember that if aktiv doesn't have all the receipts of payments made from the company they bought the debt from,  they're screwed and can't make their claim stick!

Merry Christmas! Screw you Aktiv Capital!
