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!

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.

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

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.

I got two calls to my cell phone from this number - who are they and what are they looking for?
