Allied Interstate phone harrasment, hang ups, threatening messeges on my machine, AND they never sent one letter saying who i supposedly owed, or how much i owed them. Minneapolis Minnesota
Allied Interstate makes calls to my home at least three times a day.Even on holidays & Sundays. They hang up on my answewring machine. They say "hello,Hello" and then hang up on my answering machine.
When the do identify themselves its kind of threatening. They make themselves sound official, like lawyers or something like that.
Let me also add, that in the answering machine messeges that they leave, they say "we have to disscuss the matter, that was in the letter we sent to you".
Allied-Interstate has never sent me a letter! All this harrasment and i dont even know who i supposedly owe money to, or how much i owe to them??!!

How to end the phone calls

Call your local phone provider and ask for their procedure on threatinging/harrassing phone calls. On many digital phone networks, hitting a "*57" immediately after receiving such a call will initiate a log back at the phone company's central switching office.
After two or three such loggings, you can have a formal case investigation done by the phone company. They will contact whomever is calling you (they of course can find out who is doing this even with blocked or 800- number callers).
At the very least, Allied will have to produce a letter to the phone company showing why they have a legitimate reason to call you so frequently. My hunch is that they will probably stop calling you because this documentation requires too much effort on their part.
Good luck.
