    Harassing debt collectors
    Hi,

    Its me again. I don't have any new news regarding my previous post. I have a new question. I have been paying on another old debt from Citibank. I have paid faithfully until last month, when my funds were limited. A collector from Academy services called me on a daily basis with threatening comments. His last call claimed I had left an email allowing them to deduct 1000.00 from my bank account. I did not leave any such messsage. I called & asked to speak to his supervisor. He (the collector who left the message) called me & denied leaving the message. I have it on my answering machine as well as my cell phone. Isn't this some form of harassment? He hasn't called me since I left message with his supervisor.

    Of course it is, and when you report it to his supervisor, he will get a pat on the back since they are told to do this by their bosses.
    They lie, cheat, and trick you any way they can.
