i have been getting the exact same calls for a LORI. I called twice and they actually laughed on the phone because i stated i want to have my number taken off immediately...i told her she was being rude and she accused me of the same thing...completely unprofessional..disgusted with this company...if they can even call themselves a "company"

It is illegal for these debt collectors to call you repeatedly after you have told them that you are not the person they are looking for.

This is regulated by the Ministry of Consumer Services.

I was having problems with a debt collector calling me for a relative's debt and they told me that they would keep bugging me until he called them. The collection company told me last night that there was no possible way to delete the number.  

I simply called the Ministry and the agent called the collection company with me still on the line in a conference call.  They were instructed to remove my phone number and the person said she did.  I am to call back if I receive another call.  

Here is the link to the ministry website with their contact info.

I've been getting calls from this number to my cell, multiple times a day. Today I finally called the number back, and got "Global" (but a live speaker). Told him that I'd been getting multiple calls from that number for someone who doesn't own it (I don't know who had it before it became mine), and asked them to remove my number. I was polite, but firm. I have no idea if anything will happen, but we'll see...

I don't pay my own bills, I'm a student, but these people call me, 4-8 times a day, at 1st I just thought it was another scam, but they call with just proficiency that i began to grow suspicious. The other day i received a call from what I believed was them in person, asked to be speak to me (by only mentioning 1st names) and began to tell me how I was in "trouble". As it turned out they were trying to reach a completely different person, from a completely different city, but just so happens to have the same common 1st name I do, with the same f***ing area code. I told them they were calling the wrong person, I was asked to verify this, and i thought that was the end. Long story short they still keep harassing me with those f***ing calls.
