I received a call from NCO (441-1000) and I have EXCELLENT credit. I phoned both Equifax and Trans Union to verify my file.  Nothing has ever gone to collection for me. I also receive yearly credit updates from Equifax to guarantee that nothing has gone fraudulent with my file.  NCO would not state what type of company they are, would not state why they were phoning, only that they received a file for me. There is absolutely nothing they would have received regarding a bad debt from me. I protect my credit and I am very proud of my excellent credit.  they would not provide any information to me until I provided them with personal information. I don't think so. They then stated that they would continue to contact me until I agreed to cooperate.  I am highly irritated and have no idea how to stop them from contacting me with this nonsense.

At 2:10 pm I received a call from this number. When asked to identify himself and his organization, he would only give his first name. He became quite aggressive, almost threatening, telling me I 'must' provide personal information.
He refused to provide a reason for calling.

It was only by using google, not 411, that I was able to identify this company.
I've reported this to the local police and Phone Busters.

good quote

This phone number belongs to Pamela Hayes of NCO Financial in Edmonton.  NCO Financial is a collection agency.  They are not exactly the most reputable firm on the planet.  A Google search of NCO Financial will bring up more of their unethical and/or illegal garbage than I can possibly post here.

Pamela and NCO Financial also use the toll-free number 1 +1 877-237-2215.  Note that any time you dial a toll-free number, the company you called sees your phone number.  Even if you block your Caller ID.

The best way to contact NCO Financial is to call the main number (780) 441-4000) collect from a pay phone.  That way your real number does not appear on their phone bill and NCO Financial has the added hassle of paying for collect call.
