Complaint #1569251 submitted on 09/17/2015 relating to ZestFinance. Complaint relates to Debt collection Payday loan - False statements or representation Indicated committed crime not paying.

Complaint was submitted via Web and sent to the company on Tuesday 22nd September 2015.

Narrative (may be redacted).

XXXX XXXX called my job. I was not there. They spoke to my supervisor and did not disclose that they were a debt collection company. They then told her that I would be detained for fraud if i did not contact them. She had no idea it was a debt collector because they misrepresented themselves. She thought I had committed something very serious such as a murder due to the way they spoke to her. She was so scared, she called my phone repeatedly to contact me that i may be detained. I left the facility I was working, because I wanted to resolve the issue. I left work and called to finally find out that this was about a debt. I was so embarrassed that the office thought I had done something terrible.
