BM and BM's H Phone numbers

prayerhelps's picture

We got another "collection" call asking if we were related to BM or BM'sH. Heck no---operater said her research showed DH was related to BM--I advise operator if BM told her that, we would get a restraining order to stop that nonsense. DH and BM divorced over 12 years now. Obviously BM and BM's H just don't tell their creditors any new info.

Bugs me. I am a responsible adult. If I take a loan, I pay it. I don't run for the hills and make it so the responsible people get hight interest to pay for deadbeats. I gave the operator EVERY phone # they got---land line, 2 cell phones.

Betcha we get an email in a week stating what the new phone #'s for them are.

I would have given them the phone numbers AND addresses, and told them one more call and you would consider it harassment.

yeah, shoulda woulda coulda. Don't know their address off top of my head and was feeling too lazy to go get it. Operator promised she would make sure we were removed from system. We'll see

That's just crazy. Did you ask them where they were getting their information about them being related from?

no--having worked for a cc company in past, I am sure they just pulled her credit report. It will list just about all accounts you have ever had, and who they were with, not to mention any other names you have used. DH and BM were married for 8 years, so they had a mortgage together--so that's how they found it.

This happened to us once. DH got a call regarding a medical bill that BM didn't pay. DH didn't give any info to the collection agency, but I advised him to let BM know that we received the call. She then claimed that I was trying to ruin her credit!

I think you handled this perfectly! Hope you don't get any more calls for BM at your house.

Oh, I am sure we will---get em every now and then for her and a deadbeat SIL. Since we are responsible citizens, we have had same phone numbers FOREVER---I think DH has had our land line # for over 20 years now
