Who Called Us

Get about 7 or 8 calls from this number each week. Frequently just an auto-dialer with no one on the other end of the line, sometimes that a message is left identifying the caller as "Citicards". I called Citibank and they claim that this is not one of their numbers and on my own Citibank card I have been assured that they are not the ones calling me. I vote that this is really a scam.

they call several times aday.hang up when asked any questioned

Getting three or four calls a day from them for over a week now. I never answer and they never leave a message. I have NEVER had a Zales credit card and have never stepped foot into a Zales store in my life...and I WON'T now!! I am on the Do Not Call list. This needs to STOP!!

Evon & Gloria Quinones have been receiving unwanted harrassing phone calls from Walter S. Lesley and Diane Marks for awhile not and we could not trace the telephone calls back to who they were. Evon and Gloria relizes that these two individuals are working with a net work of different people whom they used to contact us on our cells phone and also have been monitoring our computers system monitoring every search we are doing on our telephone and home computer system. They have been doing this for awhile, so
Evon & Gloria Quinones recently changed our telephone numbers and now we are receiving the same calls to our new cell phone numbers. Can you help us tract who these phone calls are coming from other than the two individuals we listed above?

Thank you for your assistance

Evon & Gloria Quinones

calls but does not leave a message

Called several times even on the cell phone and didnt leave a message...Maybe they are calling to say Merry Christmas! I'll give em a Merry Christmas..lol. Several have mentioned Zales credit card but I do not have one.I had a problem with this number calling me back in the Spring of 2010 and they eventually stopped calling.At one time I think they had something to do with extending a vehicle warrantee.So far they have not called at odd hours but they did call on a Sunday afternoon once.

this is ZALES credit card but its turned over to citibank... they harrasses and harrasss nothing better to do then call 10xday....
i'm screwed because i was on one year hardship account with monthly payment agreements (all good) because i "forgot" after one year of automatic payments to call them back after one year to renew there program, now they wont let me back on but instead
call me even though i still make pmts...i have to call in, they will only 2 months at each time, plus charge me late fee, so it's like my pmt is thrown away...they will not work with you ... there f*ked.....
they even have there online payment set up where you cant make payment except always past due full amount.

Citi Cards

I have no credit card or any other relationship to them. They call my house 3-8x a day every day. Once a week they leave a message stating that they are calling from citibank and its not a collection call. I have nothing to say to them. If i call back it asks for an account number of which there is none. Please make them stop. I am on a do not call list and do not want them harassing me or my family any longer!
dates of calls:
sunday 11.21 - 1:33 pm 12:14pm 10:44am
saturday 11.20 4:31 pm 1:36pm 10:08 am 8:28am
friday 11.19 7:10pm 6:01pm 10:48am 9:38am 8:12am
thursday 11.18 8:54 pm 7:54pm 6:49pm 5:12pm 3:58pm 9:58am 8:19am 8:08am
wednesday 11.17 5:59pm 9:55am 8:20am

They call me 3x a day every day...morning noon and night....saturday and sunday...

I get 3-4 calls a day from this number and they leave no message, no identification available. They're very irritating.

this is a collection agency

And to Citicard. Calls from this number SAY Citicard. We called Citicard and they checked the number and said it wasn't one of theirs. The people at the number call DAILY. How dumb is that. How do you spell phishing. There is no human on their end, you are just fed a recording. It asks you to call a number and give your account number. Neither the number called from nor that you are asked to call is Citicard.

They've started calling again, presumably for this "Charlotte" person. I knew they lied about taking me off their list. It's a phone number, people, not an inheritance! I do not know this person and continuing to harass me will not make her appear!

OK - collections or not - I do NOT have any credit cards - got rid of them years ago - it's tough at times but I know all my money goes to MY household........I don't owe Citi nothing (how can I without a card?????) so why 10 calls a day????????

Husband answered phone. They said to hold so my husband hung up.

called everyday left no message until Sunday calling 5 times, call back 8592838074, then they ask for a cc # i said u R calling me you tell me what u want. They start asking questions.I just said I don't have a citicard.get your call straight & do not call again.especially on a SUNDAY>

Our caller ID shows CitiBank and the number with no message. We don't have a credit card or anything else with "Shitty Bank" and are NOT behind on any of our payments so no creditors would be calling us. Just wish this would stop!

WHO THE FUCK DO THEY THINK THEY ARE GETTING INTO YOUR PHONE CONVERSATIONS AND BYPASSING
YOUR CALLER ID FEATURE TO GET THROUGH TO YOU IF YOU PAY FOR THIS FUCKING SERVICE SO YOU CAN
CHOOSE WHETHER OR NOT YOU WANT TO TALK MONEY WITH THESE UNFORGIVING BASTARDS! THEY'RE SO READY
TO PENALIZE PEOPLE THE MINUTE THEY'RE NOT PERFECTLY ABLE TO PAY THEIR MINIMUM ON TIME, THAT THEY
DON'T REALIZE IF THEY WERE ONLY MORE UNDERSTANDING AND GIVING PEOPLE A SECOND CHANCE RATHER THAN MARKING UP THEIR CREDIT THE MOMENT THEY'RE NOT ABLE TO PAY, PEOPLE WOULD FEEL IT'S WORTH GIVING UP SOME OF THEIR FOOD AND RENT MONEY TO PAY THEIR BILL AND KEEP THEIR CREDIT IN GOOD STANDING. BUT HELL IF I'M GOING TO STARVE AND BE HOMELESS TO MAKE THESE BASTARDS HAPPY AND I GAIN ZERO FROM IT! I'M NO ALTRUISTIC RELIGIOUS NUTJOB!

extensieve and also they leave a message once inawhile saying they are a markiting company

They got the bailout money ( our tax money ) to help them avoid going bankrupt ok so now they are harassing me . I did'nt get bail out money, I didn't any of Citibanks tax money to help me with my bills. And citibanks stupid outrageous interest rate brought me over my limit NOT my spending their interest rate and now I have a $39 overlimit charge put on to my account... How fair is that !!!!!!!!!!!!! so you are adding charge after charge to my bill.. I am paying ALL my credit cards to citibank which btw seems to have multiplied since Citibank who needed the bailout money owns the charge accounts now for my mortgage from abmro, my sears acct is now citibank, my macys is now citibank ENOUGH ALREADY , and I have my checking and savings accounts there also...NOW I AM PAYING OFF THESE STUPID CARDS OR TRANSFERRING THEM AND WILL TAKE MY MONEY AND MY BUSINESS ELSEWHERE...SCREW CITIBANK NOW. btw the reason they are calling is because I forgot my payment this month that was due 6 days ago that is why they are harassing me from morning till night ... its paid now but they will not do this to me again!!!!!!!!

We haven't got any CitiBank or Citi cards, so either this is a wrong number or a scam. My money's on a scam.

Oh, yes, and to LOL and the other lying collectors on here -- it's pretty cowardly to hide behind the telephone as opposed to sending registered mail so that your prey can have the opportunity to demand that you validate the alleged debt, as is their right. If you'd strap on a pair of nuts and send the mail, then at least you'd have an excuse for not validating the alleged debt once the alleged debtor didn't respond within 30 days. As it stands, you're just playing phone roulette in hopes that you'll get some ignorant person on the phone who doesn't know their rights and will send you money whether they actually owe you any or not.

recd 3 calls from this nbr today starting at 815a ct. call was not answered and no msg was left. on the 3rd call approx 1230ct one on my workers - who dont speak english very well answered the phonen and could not understand what the person on the other line was asking for...this is an elderly board and care center with no one undern 84yrs old...these people are all here in the u.s. on visas...after serving lunch i decided to call the nbr back 859-283-8074...the person who answered the phone identified herself as erika...i immediately explained the reason for the callback...she verified the nbr i was calling from and it turned out there was - nor has there ever been - a person by the name employed or a resident on the board and care center....if anymore calls come in from this nbr or the other nbr that they may use - yes, a formal complaint will be filed - the local police will be notified...if it has to go to the attorney generals office - it will....there are too many other pressing needs to take care of...two of the 5 boarders have visas running out 4feb 2010 and must return to what was Haiti...PLEASE LEAVE US ALONE

my life was pretty good lately, telephonically that is, concerning harrassing scammers.........the worst yet was the breast cancer foundation or whatever and the next worse was the regular cancer foundation......the calls were so numerous i succumbed to cursing and threatening which fell on computer deaf ears anyhow . I told them that their constant calling was giving me cancer. Eventually i think there were enough complaints and they stopped. It was heaven .......now these creepy crawling pond scum from kentucky are badgering me and the whole process starts again i see. YOu all DO realize that we have terrorists right here in our country, who terrorize us mentally with these randome continuous phone calls for their OWN needs, certainly not ours. I dont have a citi bank account and never did. and my shell oil card is all paid up always......all we can do at this point is complain and eventually give up shell oil credit cards or citi bank accounts if we have them and reject this number on our caller ids (although the phone will still ring that annoying one time before it rejects ) UGH always happens this time of year..

Citicard for Goodyear. I know this is legit because I THOUGHT what i signed up for was no payment for 90 days in fact it was no interest for 90 days and I didn't pay for 2 months! OOPS!

So may not be a CITICARD, may be citifinancial.

Just an FYI.

:)

This number is NOT a Citi number - it's a scam! They're taking a chance that you own a Citi card in order to get personal information from you. Then they sell that information to people who in turn will go on a shopping spree.

If you get a call from this number, HANG UP, then call the number on the back of your credit card to be sure you're really dealing with Citi.

One (of many problems) with what you say, LOL, is that CITICARD (which is essentially Citibank) either lies or is not able to accurately keep records. After some major medical bills in which I was unable to pay bills because of money and because I was in the hospital, I kept getting hounded by these people. They would not set up a payment plan and they would not reduce my interest rate. I basically told them that they are then at the back of the list; that they would get paid as quickly as I had money to do so, but that I was going to pay other bills before they were late and gathering interest and late charges. Of course, they threatened to sue, etc. I said, "Go for it; can't squeeze blood from a turnip; if you want to force me into bankruptcy so no one gets paid then so be it; out of my control. It turns out as I did a little bit of investigating once I was better and had time and energy to do so, I didn't owe them anything; they had mistakenly reported my payment to another account. People need to pay their bills, and I am. But the credit card companies are out of control. No matter how much they call and harass, I cannot make 2+2 = 5. What is really irritating is that basically you get penalized for trying to work with these companies. I stop talking to them anymore. Once I get one bill paid off, I take that amount and contact the next one on the list, find out how much it is and start paying it off. If they don't like that or the interest and penalties that they are making off of me then come after me. You can have my sub-compact car, my 800 square foot house and I will just go belly-up with the rest of them.

I have asked repeatedly no CALLS! However still call to harrass....even to envke Fair Practice Act insisting! DO NOT CONTACT BY PHONE! Very Ill & not employed due to Illness having been in CCU....Get off my case and yes keep those fees added on of course..

All of u know it's a debt collector. It's NOT Citibank collecting. It is a Collections agency that had purchased this debt and now are trying to collect from you. Debts are sold off and purchased by others as many times - pennies on the dollar.

So if the statue of limitations have run out in ur state, write back and dispute. No way to collect, they will sell to another agency. And so, this gets passed on from one to another.

the whole debt collection is BS- they charge everyone the high interest due to the RISK that you may not be able to pay. That is the nature of their business and the inherent risk they accept when giving an unsecured loan- shame on them, I hope all the credit giants go belly up- they are a blight to our society- file ch7- and never look back- loose the credit- get our lives and money back!!!! Live debt free!!!!!

They can kiss my butt. If they want money, see the govt. and get my bailout!!!!

citi card collections

I don't owe any money, pay all my bills on time, and yet still get calls from this number several times a day.

ROFL! I was just issued a brand new cell # for my business from Verizon Wireless and the first ever incoming call I receive within 1 1/2 hours is from these douche bags asking for someone named Scott... The 2nd ever incoming call I receive was from number 616.980.1254 asking for Scott, again! Gee, thanks Verizon Wireless for issuing me a supposedly brand new number which I specifically asked for to avoid this type of horse shit! The last number I had someone kept trying to fax me every few days! You know how irritating it is to receive a call through your earpiece and be suddenly assaulted by a violent & colorful blend of what I can only describe as a bunch of screaming electronic chimpanzees being thrown to a morbid & violent death via a wood chipper??!?! Lame... I called the number back and listened to a half-recorded message to remove my number etc, etc... They identified themselves as WCA, WAC, or ACW Clearinghouse or whatever, I think? Sorry Audio was really low and cut itself off... I thinking it's a collection call... PAY YOUR BILLS SCOTT!!!!! (A-hole!)

Message Return Call from 859-283-8074.
Dial *67 before you return any such calls to block you I/D!
There was live person on the line.
It was a phone scam.
Caller: Citicard.
Calling on behalf of Citicard Private Label Retail.

If you;
Don't have, don't use Citicard, Citicard Private Label Retail, etc., etc.

You can;
Contact the Inspector Generals Office for your state.
In the state of Florida that will be the Florida Department Of Agriculture, Charles H. Bronson Commissioner.
Home page: doacs.state.fl.us , Consumer Complaints: 800helpfla.com ,.

Then;
All you have to do is download the form, fill it our and state that; (XYZ) Company at Phone number, Address, is bugging me.
And send it in, a few days later no more stupid phone calls from the one you named.

Then;
They may however contact you by regular mail.

Have faith, if the company conducts business in the USA, your state can shut them down.

I do pay my bills on time and in full every month. However, the people who had my phone number previously obviously did not. Citibank keeps calling, asking for someone named Charlotte. I tell them they have the wrong number, explain that I just moved here six months ago. They apologize and say they will take me off the list. A few days later, they call again. This has been going on for over a month now and they WILL NOT STOP!!!! Do they think that if they harass me enough I will pay this other women's bill?!?

Citibank is the original creditor and therefore can legally ignore cease and desist letters. Only third party debt collectors are found by the FDCPA.

I have sent a "cease and desist letter" via certified mail, which was signed for by Citibank, but this collector keeps calling me despite the fact that I have written and called them to advise of my bankruptcy filing.

Oh and if the account isn't in your name & isn't a joint account, then you're not liable for the debt.

Just answer the phone, let them know what's going on and set up a payment arrangement to lower your interest rate and stop the late fees. Also features a reduced monthly payment. I know there are circumstances beyond your control, that's why they have plans that go up to 60 months. It's better than ignoring them, because citibank is aggressive as hell and is known to file lawsuits at the drop of a hat.

Not quite that simple, CITICARD, when he walks out after 20 years of marriage and leaves me holding the proverbial bag of debt. And what are you doing on here?? They must be calling you, too. So bite me.

It's citicards you dumb bitches. Pay your fucking bills.

Yes, I am going through a divorce, and yes, money is an issue. And I didn't cause the mess, but he sure left me one to clean up. But if all that shows up in the caller ID is Florence, KY, I have no idea who it is and I am NOT going to pick up the phone. And if they don't leave a message I can't very well call them back, now can I? Too many crazies out there these days. And for a woman living alone with a child, I'm not stupid enough to put myself in harm's way for a couple of dollars. Yes, my credit is important, but my life is more so.

Go ahead, push my buttons. Citi, if I had the money to pay you I would. I don't have any. Now that Obama told GM to file bankruptcy, I'm out of work and you schmucks are getting dick!

You want to threaten me? Bring it on! Sue me Bitch! As soon as you threaten with your attorney's letter to pay or he'll file, I'll file bankruptcy and you'll get less than squat!

Are you sure you want to keep charging me a late fee and over limit fees, especially, when your fees took my account over the limit?

Sue me! Eat it asshole! I'll call my bankruptcy a bailout too! Oh, it'll screw up my credit? Bullshit! You already took care of that.

Fuck you very much!

This is interesting, Right after I got a call from the 859-283-8074 number, I got a call from the 513-754-9822 stating they were from Macy's this time, Asking for the same person, Cheryl. (Out of Cleveland OH), This was the same voice that called just a couple of hours ago stating she was from Citi and would not finish the sentence.

=== Associated number 859-283-8074:===

Got this call too and asked for someone the did not live here. She said that she was calling from City and I asked what city ? She then said that it was personal and they would take the name off the list.

The number is out of BOONE County, Florence KY
The number is also redirected through Cincinnati, OH so you know that these guys have an alert system in place.

I would also notify the KY State Police and the BOONE county PD to see if they already have that number on file. If this scam has been going on for a while it is probably already known depending on the number of complaints.

If you think that you are being scammed than regardless of whether you are or not, you are advised to call your local police and report it. This way if your ID is ever stolen you have record of this on file. Without it you will have great difficulty trying to answer why you did not notify the authorities.

Be advised that charge cards only call you when you are 7 days late with a payment and if they do you do not have to give them any personal information . They already have it on record. If your charge card company does call you randomly like that then get a new one and transfer your account to one that does not.

Be advised that the authorities just broke up a PBX scam ring that hacked into companies PBX (company phone) system to get personal ID information and sell it to the higest bidder. I would not be surprised if thay also use the companies phone system to call these people to conduct their scam.

From 1983 to 2009 there were 507 million security breaches, 402 million were in the USA alone. This should tell you something. Data referenced at 4thDTSecurity.com see for yourself.

Didn't hear ring, left message, started as recording and then live person asked for me then hung up. I have a shell card, no missed payments in 4 years until this month, was traveling and forgot to make payment, made payment first thing this am 0730 for way more than min and rec'd this call at 1300. payment was due friday. my fault no complaining it's just crazy some of the posts.

Machine picked up and message said to hold on for first available agent.

3rd party collections

jesus christ everyone just shut the fuck up!! lifes too short go out and do something today that makes you happy no matter how shitty your life is. Tomorrow may not come!

What on earth is your objective in badgering people who post on this board? Do you work for Citi? Are you some moralistic Holy Roller
Preacher trying to correct the evils of credit card users? Are you some sort of stalker who gets his/her jollies reading other peoples' posting?

Would you mind sharing with the rest of us what your goals are?

You seem quite weird.

Of course, trying to play it off. You have no solution. Citicard does. And yes, this is their number, it's not some telemarketer so don't reference the "do not call" list.

This is not a chat/opinion/collection nor pimping. This is a board were people can find out who is calling their
private telephone numbers.

So wary, what's your solution to dealing with clients who fall past due? Forgive the debt and take a loss, LOL?

LOL, you seem to belong to the Senator Bill Frist medical school of remote, sight-unseen diagnosis of medical and other conditions.

With all your moralizing about people you don't know, I bet you are a 4 hour-a-day listener to Boss Limbaugh. You sound like a true Right Wing Nut. Why don't you get on about lobbying for banks and deal in facts you know and stay away from judging people you know nothing about.

Well Wary, Citi collectors aren't paid on commission, so they have nothing to gain by lying to or misleading a consumer. They wish to retain the business of clients they are calling and wish to fully understand the reason cardholders fell behind so the best solution to resolve the delinquency can be worked out. You seem to be confusing them with third party collection agencies who have no interest in fostering beneficial relationships with the clients. Collectors would not have to call you people if you managed to live within your means anyhow. You knew the consequences of failure to repay yet you still signed the contract for the zales card or the radioshack card, and probably for products that truly weren't needed by yourself.

These people keep calling me while I'm working and I have no card with them! What the HELL! That's not right! If I had a card then I would have no room to bitch! I don't so here you go! :)

Most attorneys I know seem to disagree with LOL below. The feeling is that collectors on the phone are intentionally misleading and the only reliable way to deal with collection companies is in writing. Not much good for the consumer seems to come from telephone conversations.

Well, Ron, people hanging up on someone calling about a past due payment that is contractually and legally owed isn't going to help anybody, least of all the debtor. I know that the employees at citi collections make a flat rate, whether a cardmember makes a payment or not. If you're financially unable to pay the debt in full, It's still in your best interests to pick up the phone and talk for ten minutes, because payment programs are available and they do wish to see your situation resolved in the long run. Hanging up on a debt collector doesn't make the debt go away, it's the cowardly way out. Be an adult, take responsibility for the situation and the collector will help you out to the best of their ability. Hang up, and there's nothing we can do, except charge off the account and ruin your credit. You signed the contract for the card, you are legally liable.

To be a debt collector means that your full of greed. Nothing more, and nothing less. A person without compassion, does it for the money.
Funny how they try to dictate ethics, ha-ha. The only way to explain this amount of greed is inbreeding, and there mother didn't love them enough.

In a way a feel sorry for them as a person, all-be-it an empty person who has no education or intelligence. So the next time you get a call from one of these special ed folk, just hang up on them.

Pay Your Bills on time and they won't call you. I don't know when you all began to think that a credit card gave you a sense of entitlement, but don't get mad because your actions do have consequences. Citigroup is not a 3rd party collection agency, therefore the FDCPA doesn't cover them. It's probably in your best interests to answer the calls, or you can see your account fall even more past due and into charge-off, which will ruin your credit. They will be willing to work out a solution as long as you take ten minutes to speak to them and work something out.

Two guys saying they are going to rape me, & tie me up!
I'm a 23 year old guy!
Weird as can be!

call every morning afternoon and evening
its pissing me off

They call my cell phone incessantly and never leave a message. I don't have any citi accounts.

I have been harrassed since 8:00AM this morning. I refuse to talk to them. I have had my credit limits lowered and now cannot afford even their minimum. The Shell account is over limit and i have not usede it in months. I am paying what I can each month. They are nothing but greedy crooks.

they are a royal pain in the ass, they have been calling me several times a day, when I answer they don't say anything, so I just don't answer. they will get their money when I am good and ready, they got their bailout, I am making my own.

I don't know who your trying to contact, I don't hold any gas or bank cards from citicards -we'll make that clear right now- these calls start at 8:15am and go on for most of the day, seven days a week-- a complaint has been filed and it will only move up the ladder of complaints , you may also want to start checking out the information on credit forms better before handing out credit.....

Recorded message identified the call was in regard to "...your citicard private label retail account..." and claimed, "This is not a sales call."

We do not have a Citicard account.

Called 859-283-8074, and the CSR said they are calling about my Goodyear Account (which is a CIticard).........she said they NEVER received my payment that I mailed-off 3 weeks ago........LOL

This is the 3rd time that this has happened.Why is that EVERYTIME that I snail-mail my payment they claim that they never receive it????????.....................LOL
Caller ID: kentucky call
Caller: Citicards ( Goodyear)

They call just about every day, morning and evening, from two different numbers: 859-283-8074 and 859-283-3677. Never a name on the caller I.D., just comes up as unknown name and the phone number. Knowing who they are, I never answer, or I repeatedly press the pound key until a steady beeping is all they get.
