First National Collection Bureau, Inc.

I have received a letter requesting three installments for a "settlement" of the debt. the debt was charged off in 2003. Isn't time for them to stop trying to collect?

I received a letter for a settlement from First National Collections Bureau. There's no First National Collections bureau on my credit reports (experian, transunion, or equifax), nor do I have an account with Cross Country Bank which they claim to be collecting the debt for. I called them and they were very hesitant to give me the Cross Coutnry Bank information they claim I owe a debt for. According to Cross Country Bank, they don't do business with this company and I do not owe Cross Country Bank money and they have no record of me in their system. First National Collections Bureau are fraudulent and need to be stopped. Check your credit report and verify the debt before sending this "company" anything!!

i recieved a phone call at 8:42 call back and it was first national collection bureau and their hours are 6 am to 6 pm first off secondly i have no debt

I received a letter and I called HSBC and they told me that they do not have anything pertaining to this collection. I've checked all my credit reports and this is not even on it. They can get a life.

I paid a debt off to Midland Funding for a credit card account and First National Collection Bureau is now trying to collect the same debt again for more than the original amount. I don't have them listed on my credit report so what is this all about???

This company I think specializes in debt that is either close to or past the statute of limitations, they will then pass it off to Jefferson Capitol, Jefferson capitol will send a letter stating you can have a 60% reduction if you pay in 30 days. Make sure you owe this debt, or it is even stil collectable, SOL in Ca. is 4 yrs.

Do not try to reach a clifford cucera at 503 436 1413. We built this beach home almost 10 years ago and this number was assigned to us in June 2001. We have fought this harrassment and I thought we were through until we had the recording 2 times on our phone there. Contact Verizon and they will tell you this number was given to us June 2001. Mr Cucera must have been a real dealer as I have had to deal with many such as you and the state IRS since then.

a supposed debit that is over 12 years old.

I paid a debt through this company and now have no way to contact them for receipt of payment. The creditor was North Star Capital Acquisition LLC and they are not who they say they are either. Does anyone have a number to reach them at??

I received a letter from them today for a debt of nearly $3,000 from "Original Creditor: BEST BUY" - I have never borrowed money or had a credit or debit card or bought anything on credit from Best Buy. In fact I have never been inside a Best Buy store. I am writing them a letter disputing this debt. I am almost afraid to contact them because by doing so I will be verifying that they sent the letter to a valid address. I checked online and if a creditor sends you a collection letter you should dispute the debt within 30 days and that will stop collections until/unless they validate the debt by providing details of the original creditor, amount of the original debt, etc., which in my case they cannot do. I hope this is the first and last time I ever hear from them.

These people are debt collectors. They mostly go after debts that are not usually collectible. They are trying to collect from me on a debt that went through bankruptcy three years ago. I will be furnishing proof of their attempts to the FTC for action against them.

Just got my wonderful letter claiming to be representing DirecTV, collecting on a three year old debt that was forgiven. Also contacted by Merchants Credit about a year ago. This time they offer that I can pay either $40.15 within 35 days or $52.19 in 35 days for a "debt" of $80.29. How stupid is that?

I received one of these fake letters for a account I never had.....mad is hell

These snakes are calling my parents and bombarding them with auto calls.They had to change their number.My mom tried telling them I didnt live there and even 1 time that she didnt know the person they were asking for but they continue to call.Well FTC knows about this now.They have even called my cousin at his house looking for me and wanting my phone number.They spent alot of money for a skip trace lol

I receieved a call from somebody in Richmond, VA who apparently represents this agency. It appears these folks are desperate for ANY job, so they've reduced themselves to doing THIS for a living. Only trouble is, they're claiming I owe money for some account I never had.

The number I was called from is 804-486-9102

I received a letter stating I had a $2000 capital one credit card I didn't pay and they would accept an offer of 6 payments of $142 ea which is a 60% savings. I haven't had a Capital One CC before. I called Capital One and they said they have no card or anything for my social security. I wrote a letter disputing the claim to The First National Collection Bureau. I should just go down and confront them, I live in Reno/Sparks, NV!

1st National Collection Beureau called my house 4 times yesterday! They are trying to collect a debt on a former roommate that is OVER SEVEN YEARS OLD! I told them that he does not live there, but they continue to call, even though I told them I would sue their "A" off the planet, but they wont comply. I will be contacting my attorney, the BBB, and the Attorney General, AND The Federal Trade Commission. If they are contacting you for ANY REASON, Hang up and call the police or what ever it takes to make them stop!

They call me about 3 times a day on my cell but wont tell me what its about and then they start to get rude, till me they can take me to court. But i dont know who they are or what is it about

I got a letter yesterday stating i didn't pay off an old credit card...which i had over 3 years ago! I had just got my check book out to send them their money when I googled them. Crazy!

i recieved a call earlier from this number (714)-495-4808....they claimed i owed debt but i am debt free....they even called my grandsons phone which hasnt been my number in 5 years....they do not exist there a bunch of crooks tryin to steal your money....WATCH OUT

I called and spoke to the boss and he was very rude, so rude that I had to hang the phone up if not I would have cursed him out. I'm not an angry person but everything he was saying continued to push my buttons.

They are calling me repeatedly for a Silva Aviation Comapny at my number. We've had our number for 6+ years and know nothing about this aviation company. They don't answer the phone when I try to call back and just continue to harrass us by calling repeatedly and noone answers when I try to call and there does not appear to be a website to contact them.

this company told me I had a debt with Best Buy that I never had as well. I told them it was not my debt and I was not going to pay it. Somehow they got my job number and called my boss telling them they were the police and were going to serve papers to me. They never did because they are fraudulent

i recieved a letter from them saying i owe from aarons rental claiming i owe them $1672 but are willing to settle for 836. and break it down into 6 payments..... i do not owe aarons

I received a letter from this company today claiming I owe Bank of America $6539.98, but if I start making payments in the amount of $654.00 immediately and every month for the next 6 months totaling $3923.99 they will consider the debt paid in full.

I have NEVER had an account with Bank of America. Honestly, I've never had a bank account period. I would rather keep my money than be charged a fee (and with BOA tons of bogus fees) for someone else to keep my money.

This letter though is from First National Collection Bureau, Inc., but it has First Financial Investment listed as the Creditor. There is even an "original account #" on there....how can there be an original account number, when there was NEVER an account to begin with?!?!

This is the second time in 5 years I have been contacted about a BOA account that I never had, the first time was several years ago, and the amount they claimed was less than $4000...if it's an old account that was never settled, then how does the amount of the original debt continue to rise? It doesn't, because this is bogus and I hate to tell them, but I'm not dumb enough to fall for their scam.

I paid these people in January for an old credit card and received a 0 balance settlement letter.....now today, i get a call stating that they have been tryting to reach me for some time and that i need to pay the balance. I told the lady that it was already paid and she instructed me to fax the letter. Let's see if that will get them to stop the illegal activity of trying to recollect on a paid off debt. If not, I guess i will find myself in court with them. DO NOT TRUST WHAT ANY COLLECTION COMPANY TELLS YOU

These people need to be shut down...years ago, apparently. I constantly get calls from them, from all those different numbers, sometimes dozens of times a day, and I have NO debt.

I just go a letter from them claiming I owe 50% of original debt. But it is a really old account that I paid the original creditor. They don't even have a website where you can go to make the payment, that has fraud written all over it. Other creditors that I have paid allow online payments.

I have been recieving at least three auto calls a day. For someone that has never had my number. We do not owe these people. When I asked how they got my number. They were rude. And acted like I was the one that owed them. No wonder no one wants to pay them. Learn some better customer service, Donna Chase and Don Landers.

I'm trying to pay off an old debt to First Premier Bank, they had my infor and everything was correct, but gave me a # to call that was FNCB; they had the same info too. However, after reading all these posts I am nervous about sending them pmt even though all the info between them and c.card company is valid.

Received a collection call from this agency, with a reference number for the account of Fingerhut.
I called back, gave the reference number, and was immediately pressurred into providing a credit card number for the debt.
I DO NOT owe Fingerhut,and have never received any notice from First National Collection Bureau.
Do Not give any personal information over the phone, it also makes the collection agenct mad when refusing to acknowledge debt is mentioned after informing caller the conversation is being recorded.

Collection Agencies Must provide written notice of intent to collect, and must cease collection action when notified in writing.

This Collection agency Will be receiving a Cease3 And Desist Letter From Me.

These people have called me, leaving messages on my phone that I, or my legal representative, need to contct their processing dept...yada yada yada. Now i get a letter stating I woe First Premiere Bank. Never heard of them, nor have I ever had an acct with them. They can kiss my ***. Im glad I googled them and found all this out.

These fools try to settle a debt I owed 11 yrs ago, I did my penance and had it on my reports for 7 years. I will not pay on a debt thats wayyyy passed the SOL or cannot be reported unless I pay 1 nickle on this.............resetting the 7 year clock........good try fools.

I received a letter, with a last name that I haven't used in over 12 years. They stated I owe over $10,000. I never had a debt with Providian National Bank.

They also stated that an account on a monthly payment plan of 70% discount payable in 6 payments of $525.15 could be set up.

I'm very upset over this. Can't anything be done?

I also checked out the Better Business Bureau, and they have a "F" rating.

i keep getting calls from 5024105896 called back disconnected and now a important business matter- ran search and this popped up - I wish they'd get alife and leave people alone- I am disabled and on social security

I got a letter saying "I owed over 1000.00 to verizon which I haven't had for 30 years!! I won't pay them anything I do not owe!

EVERYBODY PLEASE CALL 1-877-382-4357 This is the Line to FTC to VERBALLY File a compliant ONLY call if they have violated the Law OR you are not the Person in debt they are looking for.

I AM NOT the person they are looking for BUT I DO KNOW COLLECTION LAWS!

These people are breaking the law themselves by Calling from a 714 line which is Orange County California, when their office is in Reno Nv.
They call with a caller ID saying local office
Then a computer comes on saying they are lookig for a person, if you click through you get a person who answers the phone as First national Collection , This is a violation of 3rd party disclosure law and then they go into talking to you without a mini maranda which is required BY LAW.
CALL 1-877-382-4357 To File your complaints With the FTC and Shut these people down, ONLY people who obey collection laws should be allowed to work the Job.

I filed chapter 7 years ago that included this debt...I am not paying one red cent on something I no longer owe.

This company called my cell phone first, but didn't leave a message. A few days later I got a "Debt Collection" bill in the mail for a "Sprint PCS" account. I have not had any accounts with sprint for over 2 years. I called Sprint and they actually verified that I have a $0.32 credit on my account, let alone have no debts. Surprisingly, they were not very interested in any information about this fraudulent company trying to collect debts in their name. I am not that far from Nevada...

Received a letter today saying I owe $14000 on a visa to First National Credit. I called back and the lady by the name of Sur Garrison started to get very rude and said she will prove it its my debt and I owe this money. I said I will send you in writing that i dispute this debt, she started discouraging me to send anything in writing. Not sure why. But all this sounded fraud and nothing but fraud.

I told her if this was my debt, why did Bank Of America give me a mortgage? I have been debt free for many many years except for my mortgage.

I hope someone does something about this company.

Received a Notice for a debt that had been paid over 10 years ago. Sent the company certified letter demanding they not send me any more notices or I would be force to take legal actions. I agree this company needs to be stopped.

keep getting calls from local office 5014106896 no message when i call back disconnected or out of service

First National contacted me (this is the 3rd agency to contact me since 2005 trying to collect a debt I never had). They claim I owe Washington Mutual $2,063. I never had ANY contact with Wash Mutual whatsoever. When I asked them to provide me with the loan application with my signature on it, they said I had to request any information from them in writing and they were very nasty. We decided to google them, boy what an eye opener, as God is my witness, I never opened any type of loan with them. My credit rating is good and always has been. As far as I am concerned, they can shove anything they receive from anyone where the sun never shines. There are those folks who will stoop to the lowest level to make a dishonest dollar. For shame.

my police dept & state atty general state that this company is fraud & part of an international scam thats untrackable - any calls from area code 855 is the UK. 855-568-2611. they operate under several diff business names. another is global recovery systems. they will also call from 513-469-5091 & 5284. NEVER, NO MATTER WHAT THEY TELL YOU OR THREATEN YOU WITH - NEVER GIVE OUT YOUR SOC SEC NUMBER OR BANKING INFO.

First National Collection Bureau is now working their scams out of Baltimore, MD.

My number is a new number because I just moved here but they keep calling for someone I do not know and I can't get them to stop!
