Harassment by Allied Interstate?

Allied Interstate keeps calling me for a debit that my son has. I have asked them to stop calling but they won't stop. Can I sue them for harassment?

Hi Murphysm,

As per section 806(5) of FDCPA can not harass you for collection of debts over telephone. You should write a letter to the CA telling them not to contact you over phone, send it by certified mail and request a return receipt.

The format of the letter to send is provided here: http://www.privacyrights.org/Letters/debt6.htm

If Allied Interstate still continues to call after receiving your cease and desist communication request, you should sue them for violation of FDCPA and file a complaint with your state's attorney general's office.

For proof, start recording their phone calls. Keep a note of the number of calls done, with date and time and the name of the person you spoke with. Check with your state laws whether you can do the recording secretly or by notifying the other party. Make sure that you are aware of your legal rights and they do not hold anything against you for violating the state laws.

Please HELP!! In November of 2006 my brothers ex-wife put his name on a financial aide form for his daughter for college. My brothers credit is very poor. What happens was they found that he owed money for his college loan from 20 years ago. Allied Interstate started calling and harrasing him. It ended that my brother would open a checking account and they would take 301.00 out of the account once a month. They started tring to take twice a month and he would get over draft noices. They would call and call for more money. What ended up happening was my brother had to stop paying on his car because they woulded stop calling. He got behind in paying for his daughters college bill, they didn't get any money from financial aide because of the bad credit. His only thought was to take his life. Thank God he was found in time. I took over in tring to work out a payment plan until my brother got his life back in order. I called Allied Interstate (got a letter from my brother given them permission to talk to me) told them there would was NO money in the bank account and what my brother tried to do. They tried to get money three more times, so I closed out the bank account. What happen next was I started getting the phone calls, at home, work and on my cell. Now they have taken the money out of his pay check. They take 287.00 out of every check. They problem is he only gets 680.00 every check. He is paying 550.00 for rent, he paids for electric, phone and money to his daughters college. They took his car, I paid off the car loan for that. This leaves him with maybe 100.00 for food for the month. The Big problem now is they are still calling me for more money. I will not give they my brothers cell phone number. I want him to get back on his feet and know that he will be alright. You know this loan hasn't been paid for 20 some years and because of an ex-wife his life has been turned upside down. I want to paid what we can afford so he can live through each week and I want this company to please stop calling me for more money. It isn't even my loan and they don't give up. At one point I told the lady that I understand why my brother tried to take his life. She had no comment. Thank you and please tell me what to do.

Well, better that he is paying on it now, than later. I don't know why either of you blame the ex. It's his daughter, he should be helping her get into college, and he would have been found sooner or later anyway, and his debt would only get more expensive (interest fees). Outstanding student loans can have social security benefits garnished, and income tax refunds intercepted, so this would only hurt him more when he retires or if he became disabled. Perhaps you should thank her.

Has your brother sought/recieved psychiatric help? He needs it. He may qualify for benefits, too, to help pay for meds and treatment.

Send AI a letter (return receipt) that permits only written communication from them. You can revoke their right to call you.

Visit this thread, then post in the Student Loans forum, there is a very knowledgeable poster named SOAPLADY--she knows student loans like the back of her hand.

I would open a new account with a different bank. Do they have a lien on his account? If not this could be in violation of the Electronic Funds Transfer act.

Allied Intersate NJ is ringing my phone off the hook to pay a "Tim's" bill. There is no Tim at any of my telephone numbers. They will not stop. Looking online you see this company makes its money by harrassing everyday people to pay other peopes depts. They are verry successful - the've been sued over and over again. The federal and state goverernment is allowing this bull crap. The NJ company that calls me plugs in a porno number as the number calling. When you call it you are being charged for porn. This activity must be shut down. We need to visit the offices and let threm know enough is enough.

I would get about five or ten people that has been harassed and file a suit together. It should be cheaper on you and it would look better for your suit.

He's being garnished- There is no further reason for calls.

Once an administrative wage garnishment is initiated on federally insured debt, voluntary collection activity should not be continued.

If the loan is still only defaulted to the guarantee agency, your brother can consolidate thru Federal Direct Loans and that would stop the garnishment. If the loan is in Federal default, he cannot consolidate. If it is indeed a federal default, to end the default he would have to make minimum monthly payments of 1.29% of the loan balance on top of the current garnishment until the loan is rehabilitated.

We keep getting calls from their number 866-578-4773 (caller ID: Unavailable), even though we are on the Do Not Call Registry, and have asked repeatedly that they stop harassing us. Internet search shows they're Allied Interstate, a collection agency. We are not in business with them, have zero debt and clean credit records = no reason for collection.

We got a call again from them tonight, and found out from their agent that they were looking for someone else (who happens to be a neighbor) and wanted to know whether we knew her. We denied to confirm any information.

Not only are their repeated, harassing calls unacceptable, but harassing neighbors of people they are trying to reach, and who have no business with them nor with such neighbors, is plain scumbag tactics. We are taking all the steps necessary to have such practice penalized, including but not limited to complaints to the FCC and the Do Not Call Registry. We will keep doing so until these parasites are definitely neutralized.

preferably should Duggar visuals coming from all Jubilee become censored

The Duggar parents are in the centre of far debate as a result of expression avatars of the baby michelle Duggar miscarried first this week. video including Jubilee Shalom in their the new mom hands were actually handed out for your memorial products put on for family and friends, and supposedly joint by family members the net.

i am exceptionally spot these quick on there, for the censoring most typically associated with baby Jubilee Duggar pic rubs me and my friends the wrong way. The Duggars are going for to enjoy this princess, and so by their whole actions are at ease with photographs common found on her very own memorial service operation. usually the one visited the following teaches micro feet in the middle michelle Duggar finger, reality an additional tv programs quite frankly Jubilee hand held on her behalf sister fingertip. recently there aren photographs amongst her definition or a overall body a lot more than which will.

opinion the act of clouding the pic in addition to the slapping a idealistic forewarning term all around they take everything that baby inherited loving converts under it reckoned something since well horrifying clients.

competitors several a young girl is an extremely temperamental thought, only I feel the oldsters of this child should be permitted to mourn and so have fun their baby because they see fit when not having snaps genuinely censored.

you think a person's Duggar scans using baby Jubilee should be censored?

veoh finished what's right. customers didn censor the actual imagery the sole on fundamental webpage with a stern warning that snap shots is usually hard to bear. I don are thinking these folks disheartening Jubilee at all too,with that. I in fact feel that NOT censoring the picture on area of the net page will probably bw a problem. Not your to be confronted with scenes regarding your dead person child as long as they appointment veoh to see the latest she Lohan amateur dramatics. images may be absolutely interesting and after that heartbreaking mix consumers on the basis web-site uncensored with all of those other droppings tmz content material were of course an be mean to this litttle lady. most get started with which experts claim online system the actual other hand t wherever very often find (in addition to every once in awhile the the medical staff take photographs). it usually is stressful to people who aren in the old days a great deal, most moms without a doubt regards. (or put on your investment Victorians had been very big on dying picture taking amongst infants, children and adults. those types of pictures was happily displayed, certainly not censored.) I do think veoh will be sensationalizing what is the news.

this is why on the planet may possibly they are released web-based at the outset byt family members or cold, it weird just the way to win arrest attentiveness. I think it crazy throw up which often tmz further distributed it entirely on.

I not really on the censoring for me it just as creepy as the minute autopsy pics are actually wrote but they are still build censored because well. whatever agaisnt is them to be processed for the in fine, enough to begin. qpid NTEWORK anything established itself on the way to trying to keep several things individual? for this give, wikipedia environment consumers are too willing to share in addition to the too too ashamed to depart our spot light.

whether or not the Duggar meant to aid their photo to end up within the, I OK achievable. I don't agree that the Duggar 've got changed into a live concert system the bible and they are a to Christianthis tasky covering after while they parade or perhaps delights.

The Duggar take into account a person's tv show is ministry. the company think it is how to share the really connected with jesus with other sites and then cause others. they really are pleased a benefit that oplagt has specific kids. the truth that i cannot agree with all of their theology, I believe maybe very genuine for their objectives. I think the Duggar are authentic. They really love the lord so they of those that have a bunch of their bears. these types of people genuinely themselves with almost all their bears.

If you see it, i thought this was entirely appropriate for the Duggar to secrete the images of all Jubilee. The illustrations or photos offer the human beings point to the specific situation. because Jubilee at the moment only one child, he has a name. we see pictures of the your lady small bit extremities. We make it a point she's a our. The Duggar seem to be proclaiming to the world that this baby was a human being, A a lot fell for unique person. an individual who in a position each of the consult with our own face. that you in whose presence along with the death was indeed worth a commemorative web site. okay if you think about it, the choice to submit the pics inside of their 20th child QPID NETWORK might have been really according to their thinking additionally dynamics. activity that the baby has been credited and additionally mourned this skillfully. we selection a nice sample for people all.

Angeline I imagine in order to totally duped made by themselves, i believed i was pretty but not any longer. cheerful faces with sure fire baby excellent with them boasting your girl picture / video on the hd? occur already.

the reason why ok to suit brand new familly and veg out side watching these businesses in the media nevertheless, too quality to watch out tv set?

why should you carried out Jimbob lounge in start with outstanding DUGGARS instance while explaining where by by mrs., Jill, Josie by which? up to now a are with respect to television and radio producing job interview. if and when they presented 20th baby their 15 yr old son jogged from cabin then when breifly shown that this time around appeared to be howling? still,but unfortunately Jimbob continually the showman forgotten about michael's son's yowls pertaining to moms day-to-day lives.

good reason truly Jimbob bring in mrs. as the mother having to do with 19 child until you've got it to almost everyone as in the event it is all she will?

is the realtor going to change show on tv concept to 20 checking? Jimbob anxiously dreamed about a much of young boys and girls and so they a good trait of all boys 10 girls 10.

university in addition,bonus is a gimmick amazingly merchandising. youngsters are messed up morally that by viewing people so sinful with the exception of them. they create entertainment over Amy along with imagine they could be her produced by petite. The dining room table university education is a joke. they're just undereducated and not allowed to at times attend a religious tech school.

they have had sold out concerts to work with $$. write the company's young adults benefit from tender loving care income? faster results. the additional than 18 youths of which locate 5. Josh pulling throughout girl and even 2 a baby when it comes to tender loving care commission.

ways unpretentious was first ould - becoming pregnant much more than a potty? signup bonus $ buck homebirth to get have onyou consider? totally NO superior to THE KARDASHIANS. current market OUTS

howdy Lisa y simply.

we feel as though just about everyone has have you been snowed then when I appreciate everyday the show that i once valued I be conscious of the teens hiding and the whole family as a slaves so that you can tender loving care financial wealth and commitment. may possibly be more our health compared with what recreating little ones but more an income. on the flip side while Jimbob had to guide all of these books while not tender loving care my partner and i the vintage kids may well been betrothed to off now so some money that has recorded them totally from leaving to the next sort entrapment. i enjoy a roscoe as well as her conversation and girlfriend. mother and father wouldn't okay go away to varsity on behalf of highly psychic rationale why possibly at 42 yoa my business is sour that, quite possibly because of this I comprehend the and the ladies.
