I'd suggest making your voice mail/answering machine as an ear piercing noise. That way if anyone is on the line they'll think twice before calling your home again. All around me are familiar faces... Worn out places...Worn out faces... |

Cleadusaurus User ID: 1303938 United States 05/02/2011 09:28 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | If your talking about the actual bill collecter i cant help you but if your talking about the phone soliciters I hand em off to my 3 year old :D Benjamin Franklin left the Constitutional Convention in 1787, He was approached by a Mrs. Powell, who asked him, "What have you given us, Dr. Franklin?" "A Republic," he replied, "If you can keep it. "If you want to make someone angry, tell him a lie; if you want to make him furious, tell him the truth. All truth passes through three stages. First, it is ridiculed, second it is violently opposed, and third, it is accepted as self-evident". - A. Schopenhauer Philosopher" [link to www.youtube.com] |

Quoting: Anonymous Coward 1367424Your first mistake is picking up the phone. Don't talk to them at all if you have no funds to put against what you owe. [link to wingsoflyra.blogspot.com] |

Greg_B. User ID: 1259308 United States 05/02/2011 09:50 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Tell them you don't know what they are talking about and that they should send any documents in their possession that you've signed to you for your inspection. Tell them they have 30 days to comply or else you'll consider their claim null and void and take appropriate action should any negative spot on your credit exist as a result. I'm not too fond of Signatures. Why would I want to end every post the same way? |

Anonymous Coward User ID: 1261918 United States 05/02/2011 09:52 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | I like to calmly inform them that I will not be paying them ever. This usually results in them telling me that I have too. Then I explain that I am infact an adult and I don't have to do what they tell me to do. They usually get angrey now, at that point I explain that there's no real reason to get upset somtimes you lose some and they probably should not bother to call because I will be blocking there number if they call again. They usually hang up at that point. |

$$$ for U User ID: 1205708 United States 05/02/2011 10:14 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | There are laws to protect you! Get a lawyer involved pro bono.

Once a lawyer is involved, a single call can ruin their case. The jusdge is on YOUR side... |
