Avantis DCA calling me at work

[oriental1]

Hello All.

Info required.

 

 

Out of the blue today a company called Avantis called me at work about an outstanding debt.

 

 

I have never had any contact with this company and I really do not know how they got my work details.

 

 

This will cause me great issuses with my employment if they contact my bosses etc.

 

 

Any advice please

hello

they shouldn't be phoning you at work. maybe best post up your question in debt collection sub forum for further input?

They can only contact you at work if a work number was given and permission to be contacted, They are one of the worst DCA's and obviously trying there luck.

 

Report them for there actions as it could lead to questions from your employer and not fair at all.

 

They hounded me for a water bill which wasn't even mine, It took many letters to the water company and 6 months to have them tell advantis to stop chasing me.

 

Tell them contact in writing only and DONT speak to them.

Send them the telephone harassment letter from the CAG library. Add the clause " your permission to call me at my place of employment is now revoked."
