Complaint #1684515 submitted on 12/04/2015 relating to Unifin Inc.. Complaint relates to Debt collection I do not know - Cont'd attempts collect debt not owed Debt is not mine.
Complaint was submitted via Web and sent to the company on Friday 4th December 2015.
I receive continuing telephone calls from the phone number XXXX, which is an area code close to my home so it gives the impression it is a local number. Most are some sort of autodialer and then when I answer, no one talks. Today I received a call from this number and the individual ( XXXX ) said he was from Unifin, Inc. XXXX said he wanted me to pay a debt against an account that I do not know anything about. My name is the same as my son 's name, and consequently my son " may '' owe the debt buy I do n't know for certain. I told XXXX at Unifin that I was not responsible for the debt, that my son and I share the same name, and asked him to give me his company name and mailing address so I could dispute the debt. XXXX said I should either arrange to pay the debt myself or put pressure on my son to pay his debt. When I asked XXXX again for the details on their company and the nature of the supposed debt so I could dispute it, he got obnoxious on the phone and then hung up before providing the information I would need in order to send a request to dispute the debt. After XXXX at Unifin hung up on me, I called the XXXX number back to get more details. However, the person who answered was now XXXX at a company he said was XXXX or XXXX ( or something that sounded similar to that ). Without even giving him my name, he said he needed to talk to me about a debt I owed, giving me the impression that my phone number must have been loaded in their automated phone and records keeping system. I explained to XXXX at XXXX ( sp? ) that I was not the person they were looking for and requested that my name be removed from their records as having any association with the debt case. I also asked XXXX for contact information on his company, including how to spell their name and their mailing address so I could dispute any potential debt. At that point XXXX hung up on me without providing the requested information.
