THE BILL COLLECTORS

And there off!
The bill collectors are now calling my phone once again.  Well in some cases, I should say there automated systems.  That is so frustrating to me.  I have this one bill collector that calls me everyday from a "local" number.  At first I thought someone was calling me about a job and I answered.  Well to my surprise it was "Queen Elizabeth!"  There was a record message from a woman with a british accent asking me to "remain on the line and a representative with be with you shortly."  I really don't know what they are saying verbatim, but anyway, after receiving the call several times, I finally decided to adhere.  But after waiting several minutes on hold, there was another recorded message that stated, "your call could not be connected."  Well needless to say, I have no ideal who this bill collector is or what debt they are trying to collect.  Now I have a total of four collectors calling me.  I am thinking about requesting them as my Facebook friends.  I know these people are doing there job, but what really kills me is when they flat out expect you to make the entire payment right then and there.  I am thinking to myself, "if that was the case, you ass would not be calling me."  It is apparent that these people don't care and why should they.  So that is why when they call, I typically ignore them or if I do speak with them, I always request that they send me a written correspondence pertaining to my debt.
