Company: BARCLAYS BANK DELAWARE
State: TX

Complaint narrative:
On XXXX I went in to work and was told that a man named XXXX had been repeatedly calling and asking for me. My co workers stated they would tell him that I was off, and he would call back an hour later. He called several times a day over the course of 2 days that I was off. He called around XXXX pm, and I answered the phone. He told me was with XXXX XXXX and he was trying to collect a debt. I asked him to not call me at work, and he stated he was unable to get a hold of me on my personal phone, and he was left with no option. I told him I would call him after I got off work, asked for his phone number. I then hung up. He immediatley called back to my work, and said if I take care of this today the calls would stop. I am steady asking him not to call my work. He continued to say he would call as often as necessary to get this debt taken care of. I literally begged him to leave me alone, I said I can not do this at my job. I agreed to the terms he requested for repayment and said I will call after I get off to set this up. I told him I do not have my bank account information with me. He said that he would not get off the phone until he had set up payment arrangements. He then started to read my credit report to me, and asked what my employer would think about it. At this point I am XXXX, and said you are going to make me XXXX XXXX XXXX. He responded, that 's not necessary, just take care of this and the calls will stop. I did not have my banking information to set this up, and I could not hang up or he would call right back. All of my co workers and boss were looking at me, I just stopped talking. He eventually hung up on me, and did not call back that day. He had me on the phone at my work for over 30 minutes. I can not lose my job, and I am terrified the calls will start again Monday.

Complaint narrative:
My information was exposed during the Equifax Data Breach. Shortly after being notified of us, I noticed 5 separate accounts listed on my XXXX, XXXX and TransUnion reports which were the result of misuse of my sensitive personal information. I promptly filed an ID Theft Report ( including 3 separate police reports ) with these credit bureaus. The information was sent to XXXX using XXXX Tracking XXXX. Sent to TransUnion using XXXX tracking XXXX. And sent to XXXX via XXXX XXXX Mail XXXX ( i do not have the tracking offhand ). In my identity theft report, it stated that these accounts were the result of the misuse of my sensitive personal information. I included a copy of my birth certificate, my New York State Issued ID, XXXX Card and proof of my address. I asked for these credit bureaus to block all of the fraudulent information from my credit reports. TransUnion complied almost immediately although all of the inquiries on my report are a result of fraud which they did not remove. I followed up with a letter with TransUnion but have not heard back at this time. XXXX and XXXX removed one of the accounts but 4 of them still remain. I am filing a complaint because I do not believe that anybody should have fraudulent information appear on their credit reports. It is not fair to anyone.

Company: Asset Recovery Solutions, LLC
State: IN

Complaint narrative:
I XXXX XXXX am reporting a deeply serious complaint against the entity of Asset Recovery Solutions , LLC, collections agency regarding there gravalicious and phony debt recovery approach in relations to a debt that has long, long ago reached it 's maturity date. 

Asset Recovery Solutions , LLC, and it 's shared affiliates unscrupulous approaches to recover a debt that was originally taken out for {$2500.00}, between the year XXXX, and XXXX has long been updated and removed from all three major credit bureaus, through multiple disputes regarding many unfair charges etc. And therefore, such, debt has no genuine merits for any types of collection recovery etc. 

In addition I vividly remember filing multiple disputes to have this debt removed particularly from XXXX, files which was done two to three months before its removal month and year, with that being in the month of XX/XX/XXXX, and which was shared with me by a live customer service representative person on a called in over the phone through my initials of verification etc. 

In my closing out now, and complete analysis regarding Asset Recovery Solutions , LLC, and whether there acting solo, or in connections with it 's counterparts to collect on a debt that has long passed it 's statues of limitations, and that has long been exhausted on it 's recovery time frame which would surely be deemed as extortion 's, ugly conspiracies to entrapment 's, tactics of manipulations, major monkey businesses, along with ethical fallacies, rhetorical fallacies, and rationale fallacies which many, many consumers in the business world and societal marketplace would deem such disturbing actions as non de minimis, and which is for surely reprehensible at all major levels etc. 

In further, I am quiet frankly, appalled and incredulous by all these criminal activities by Asset Recovery Solutions , LLC, and it 's affiliates which are deeply troubling, and deliberately deeply disturbing, and with deeply intentions of culpable negligence. And as such, this entity and it 's affiliates whether they 're again, acting solo or not should be held accountable and responsible for all their collective despicable actions for trying to take advantage of me, and perhaps many other potential consumers in the marketplace etc. 

These types of phony business conduct causes debt restart on debts that has long been eclipsed in the societal business world and marketplace which causes many other major effects unjustly on many consumers etc. And as such, I implore for all body of governments, and all entities of consumer watch dog groups to reward Asset Recovery Solutions , LLC, and it 's acting affiliates with stiff penalties of justices at all major levels in general etc.

Therefore, I 'm filing this complaint with CFPB and hoping to resolve this false negative record against me once for all.
