Enhanced Recovery Corporation Calling me 3 + times per day, waking me up (I work nites) Jacksonville Florida
I work nights, get to sleep about 6:00am.
EVERY morning at 8:30 these jerks call and wake me up. Then they call around noon and later in the day. I also see they also sometimes call in the evening while I'm at work.
This has been going on for several weeks.
When I first did answer, all I got was a recorded message which I always promptly hang up on.
I also am on the Do Not Call list, apparently they don't care.
AND I don't owe anyone any overdue payments or debts in the first place.

Calling a bottom-feeding debt collector will result in only one thing: MORE PHONE CALLS, and with greater frequency.
Send or fax a CEASE COMMUNICATIONS letter (as per laid out at budhibbs.com) to these slimeballs. Per federal collection law, they are REQUIRED to cease all phone calls subsequent to receipt of that letter or face a $1000 fine. 999 times out of 1000, they scurry away into a hole after they get that letter.

Collection agencies only receive the last known number of the person that they are looking for. You already know you don't have any debts. Call them back, in most cases, it's a family member or friend that has given your number as a reference or alternate contact number. Just call them back, they are going to tell you who they are looking for, let them know it's a wrong number so they can stop calling. The last thing you wanna do is to cut your ringer off because they are just going to assume you are the person they are looking for and your dodging them. Changing your number doesn't help either, your just going to get a recycled number, and the same thing can happen.

Maxc, TURN OFF THE RINGER, or CHANGE YOUR PHONE# to an unlisted one!

Maxc,
The obvious solution here would be for you to turn your ringer off.
Or, you could change your phone# to an unlisted one, or do both!
Please note that the "Do Not Call list" does NOT apply to debt collectors which is what these people are.
It makes no difference whether you are in collections or not, you need to serve them written notice to stop the calls.
You should do this by certified mail, return reciept requested, and be sure to put the certified# on the letter itself and keep a copy for your records. Do NOT sign the letter, just print.
