Consumer Complaint: I have gotten daily calls for weeks from XXXX XXXX XXXX ( # XXXX ). I have no credit account with them. They can not locate my name or phone number on any of their accounts. They say they have no records for me and have no idea why they have my number. I have asked them 7x now to stop calling me. Three reps said they can not remove my number from their call list. The last 3 reps I spoke with say they will remove my number, but the calls continue. I may have to file a police report for telephone harassment, as a last resort. I have filed a complaint with the Federal Do Not Call Registry, but the calls will not stop.
