I have been receiving more than 100 calls from this unethical, bottom feeder collection agency...  Allied Interstate has called my cell phone EVERY HOUR during the day for the past 2 weeks.  No message was ever left on my voicemail.  I finally called this trashy collection agency back, and the clueless CSR admitted to me that they use an "auto-dialer", and that the employees of this ruthless collection agency had no control over what phone numbers the auto dialer was calling.  It turns out that Capital One had supposedly contacted them because I failed to pay a late fee on my credit card!!!!  I NEVER received any correspondence from Capital One regarding this so-called late fee; instead, I started to see the phone number 877-218-3219 show up on my cell phone.  I contacted Capital One, and I got the typical run-around...  "Let me transfer you to the correct department", etc...  I will NEVER have another Capital One credit card again!!!  Beware!!!!  One more interesting tidbit about Allied Interstate...  The Minnesota Attorney General sued them a while back for harassing people who didn't even have any outstanding debt to be collected.  We need to stand up for our rights!!  Thank you!!

#2 Consumer Suggestion

Try this to beat Allied Interstate

AUTHOR: Geina - (U.S.A.)

POSTED: Wednesday, August 10, 2011

This report is a little old, are they still bothering you? Of course they are. 
Here is something you might try...
1. Send them a certified letter, RRR, (with the certification number ON the letter itself), telling them you...
1. Dispute the debt. 
2. Demand that they validate the debt. 
3. Demand that they cease communication with you. 
In my case, when the RRR arrived in my mailbox, I knew they had gotten my letter. The calls continued, and no validation of debt ever arrived.

All I got was a letter from them saying they needed "more information", as they could not find me in their database (?!!!) They wanted my SSN!!! I ignored their letter. I was not volunteering ANY information to them. 

In other words, they had received my letter, and were ignoring it. 

After I had proof that they received my letter, I started taking photo's of my caller I.D., to prove they were still calling, and THEN I went online and found a "lemon law" attorney who happened to be very familiar with Allied. 
I told him my story, and he accepted my case. I sent all my proof to him via email attachments, and lo and behold, Allied settled with them for violation of the FDCPA laws, and I was awarded a nice little check for $500.00!

Of course, the attorney got $2200.00 for his hard work (paid by Allied, not me), but do I care? Hell no! The calls stopped!
And I was 500 bucks richer!
