This number keeps calling asking for Beverly Green.  I explain I've had this number for close to 10 years and I am not Beverly and they promise to remove me from the list and yet they keep calling.  Most recently, the person calling became irrate and hung up on me- I pay my bills yet I'm being harrassed because someone used my phone number, very frustrating.

I answered and a recorded message said if I am (an unknown name) to press 1. If I am not (unknown name) to disconnect immediately. I hung up.

I was issued a new phone number two months ago. Beginning a few weeks ago I get  frequent automated calls for someone I do not know (obviously, a person who previously had this number). I finally got through to a live person at the calling number and complained. He said the calls would stop but they have not. This should be illegal and constitutes harassment. I understand it is a collection agency for a finance company. I have never done business with them or any other existing finance company.

Your "not me" complaints were all made verbally. How do you plan to prove you were harassed? Here's a hint: Pinnacle isn't going to help you win that argument. See my advice from October 2011, currently three short comments behind yours.

i have been receiving calls from this number with no way to make it stop. they are calling for a person that DOES NOT live at my house. i DO NOT know the person they are calling for ,and i am very tempted to change my number to get the calls to stop. i've been woken up by the calls early in the morning and have gotten them late in the afternoon. i am tired of being harassed by somebody else's problem. please make it stop before i have to make unnecessary changes or report you for harassment. this has been going on far too long. the calls have been coming in since i received this number when we moved here around February 2012, and i am still getting the calls today August 16, 2012. i have tried to be patient and wait to see if it would stop, but as you see it hasn't.
