Compucredit - Fingerhut HUGE SCAM/RIP OFF! Saint Cloud Minnesota

1st off I have to say in my opinion,for any company that can call you to collect money from you should by rights of the consumer for any purpose, should have a number to contact that company, wether it be 6 months down the line , or 6 years! If in fact if money is owed and for what ever reason the consumer could not make a payment as arranged or agreed upon then they should be able to call and express a problem and make other arrangements to work it out. So the consumer is not all at fault. This defies the right of a consumer, not being able to contact the creditor!
Amazing how money makes people forget how to be empathetic or respectful of other peoples feelings , or situation .
A good example is looking at the current economy,and job situations!

2nd just recently have had our phone number changed and the call history came up as Fingerhut. I tried calling the number and had trouble with getting through.

As many as 64 phone calls in one months time. Some days there were as many as 8 phone calls in the same day from them, and we have repeatedly told them that we are not the people they are looking for, this is a new number for us . They said they would take our number off of the call list but continued to call anyway. One man
outright called my husband a liar,was repulsively arrogant,and belligerent. I called Fingerhut Corp and told them the number from which we are receiving these calls and this phone number was in fact not one of theirs & got the same answer as Alana about Compucredit, no phone number to call them . They called yesterday again (64th time!) once more said they would take our number off of the list, and if again they don't? This is outright harrassment, and it is very annoying . I feel that if they felt they were in their rights to do what they do , then they would have no problem leaving a contact number giving others the right to make arrangements or in my case harassment complaint before it turns to a legal situation, and if they don't stop that is just what is going to happen. My phone record would back this up.

Yes...Fingerhut went out of business in 2002-Yes...CompuCredit is a collections agency, and Yes...Fingerhut Direct Marketing does not have access to former fingerhut accounts and information.
But, you did not say if you had attempted to contact CompuCredit. They had an operating phone number and assistants for 2 years after the former fingerhut went out of business. When there were no calls coming in for people to settle their accounts, they switched over to fax and p.o. box info only.
If you never had an account with the former Fingerhut, you could have disputed all claims. You could go to your local Credit Bureau for assistance and information. Also, the State of New York has a banking commision that works with clients to resolve credit issues. There is no reason that this issue should have escalated to the point of freezing bank accounts...this is an action that only the IRS and Law Enforcement have the ability to do....I think there's a lot here that isn't being said.

What happened. The same thing is happening to me but they say that I purchased the stuff 17 years ago
