NCO Calling My Job

by Sue
(Los Angeles, CA United States)

I have to say they are one of the worst company I have ever dealt with. They call 4 to 5 time a day. One day I was seating at work and I answer my work phone and they said who they were. I was so upset. I left my desk and called them on my cell phone and told them I was recording the conversation. I ask them did I give them approval to call my job, I ask the question about 10 times before they said "No" you did not give me approval to call the job. I filed a compliant again them.

 NCO calls me at work
by: Cynthia

Received a call this morning at my place of employment about my February payment asking me if I could go ahead and take care of it over the phone, I said no it was taken care of the same way I always take care of it every month, bill pay thru my bank. The rep said oh I see your payment. I asked him he he could look at his information before calling my job cause if their calls continue I wont have a job to make that payment.

When I set up these arrangements I advised Tallahassee DOE I get paid one a month the last business date of the month, I was told that's fine because there is a grace period, so why are these people calling me every month? At one point I stopped answering their calls because they were daily and I knew I had paid my bill, looks like I'm going to have to start that again. Will be glad when this is over!!
