Oslo? Norway? Financial powerhouse that it is....seriously???This clearly isn't ING although they are vainly trying to create the multi-national facade.They won't last long at this rate....any dimwit can tell you that simply PLACING many phone calls does not yield many dollars...staff and office space cost money.As such, collections agencies come and go like ticks on a dog's a***. (In this analogy, the debtor would be the dog and the collector the a***-sucker).By necessity they change names and phone numbers frequently. It is the only means by which to maintain commercial viability. The more frequently the debtor can identify the collector, the less effective the cat-and-mouse game becomes.It seems to me that even "unknown" and "spoofed" phone numbers have also become rather ineffective ploys. A lot of people simply rely on voicemail and number familiarity as opposed to answering their phone because it happened to ring.Maybe you guys should move into the current millenium and try something on social networking...you know...."out" them....Given that these networks are ultimately used to stroke people's egos and tailor images, it would be a pretty effective way to garner your desired response. Nothing quite destroys a public image like financial issues...except maybe sexual issues...

Aktiv Capital. ?Collection Agency.

Why you are calling from this phone number (519) 963-8180

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.

Somehow these idiots got my cell #, I don't know how they got MY number to ask me for someone I don't know in some freakish sounding mechanical voice.  Only 2 businesses have my cell number and they are none that would have any connection to a (fake sounding) collection agency.  I'll be calling them tomorrow and telling them to remove my number from their call list or I'll be chasing them down with a threat to sue for harrassment.

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 b*****ds! They haven't called since
