Complaint #1763525 submitted on 01/28/2016 relating to JMS Associates, Inc.. Complaint relates to Debt collection I do not know - Improper contact or sharing of info Contacted me after I asked not to.
Complaint was submitted via Web and sent to the company on Thursday 28th January 2016.
XXXX XXXX from JMS Associates ( XXXX ) XXXX called our office asking for XXXX XXXX who is an old associate of this company. The gentleman advised that it was impertinent he speak with XXXX this instant regarding a financing settlement in their office and pushed and used aggressive speech and tactics to try to get me to give away XXXX contact info. I advised him that XXXX no longer worked in this office and he rudely replied again in an aggressive tone that this is the number XXXX provided, as if I was lying about XXXX no longer being affiliated with us and demanding to get his contact info. Once again I said to him that he was calling an office line and that XXXX no longer worked here but that I would take his info and give XXXX the message. We hung up. The next day the same guy calls me with the same tone, I reminded him XXXX no longer worked here but that I did him the favor of giving him his info for him already and that he was not to call this office anymore. He began yelling at me telling me I did no favor for him and that he had every right to call and that I had no idea what I was talking about and proceeded to harass and use aggression and yell at me with rude behavior until I finally hung up. This is a violation of section XXXX which constitutes a {$1500.00} fine. This man # XXXX should not be discussing someone elses debt with me over the phone and telling me about XXXX settlement and I am not the debtor nor is he allowed to use those tactics with the debtor. He also did not identify himself as a debt collector when calling. He said he was a law office calling about a financing settlement. When I look online it is clear this office is a debt collector.
